Welcome to Simmer With. These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of the Simmer With mobile application and related services (the “Service”) provided by Simmer With (“Simmer With ”, “we”, “us”, or “our”). By creating an account or using the Service, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

These Terms make up the entire agreement between you and Simmer With regarding your use of our Products. We don’t charge you to use our Products or the other products and service covered by these Terms, unless we state otherwise. We don’t sell your personal data to advertisers, and we don’t share information that directly identifies you (such as your name, email address or other contact information) with advertisers. 

1. Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years old to use the Service. By using the Service, you represent and warrant that you meet these requirements, and not otherwise barred from using the Service under applicable law.

If we disable your account for a violation of our Terms or other terms and policies, you agree not to create another account without our permission. Receiving permission to create a new account is provided at our sole discretion, and does not mean or imply that the disciplinary action was wrong or without cause. If you do not meet these criteria, you agree to immediately discontinue use of our Service. We reserve the right to refuse to provide our Service to anyone at any time.

The Service is not directed to children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 13. If we become aware that a user is under 13, we will promptly disable their account and delete any associated personal information. If you believe a child under 13 has provided us with personal information, please contact us at contact@simmerwith.us.

2. Your account

You are responsible for keeping your account credentials secure and for all activity that occurs under your account. You agree to provide accurate information during signup and to keep that information up to date. Notify us at contact@simmerwith.us if you believe your account has been compromised.
