1. Agreement
These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of the Spark²Plan web application and website at spark2plan.com (the "Service"), operated by Spark²Plan (Paolo Taverna), Québec, Canada. By creating an account or using the Service you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
2. The Service
Spark²Plan is a project-planning and scheduling application: Gantt charts, task dependencies and auto-scheduling, work calendars, baselines, MS Project XML import/export, reports, optional AI-assisted features, and team collaboration. The Service evolves continuously; features may be added, changed, or removed. Material changes to paid features will be communicated reasonably.
3. Accounts
You must provide accurate information when creating an account and keep your credentials confidential. You are responsible for activity under your account. Notify us promptly at support@spark2plan.com if you suspect unauthorized use.
4. Plans, billing, and trials
- Starter (Free) — the free plan, with usage limits (currently 1 project and up to 50 tasks). Limits may change; we will not reduce them retroactively in a way that deletes your existing data.
- Paid plans — Professional and Enterprise subscriptions are billed through Stripe on a monthly or annual cycle. Prices are shown on the pricing page at the time of purchase, exclusive of any applicable taxes.
- Free trial — new Professional subscriptions include a 14-day free trial, applied at Stripe checkout. You will not be charged until the trial ends; cancel before it ends to avoid any charge.
- Cancellation — you may cancel at any time. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period; you keep paid features until then. Except where required by law, payments already made are non-refundable.
- Downgrade — after cancellation your account reverts to the Starter plan. Data exceeding Starter limits is not deleted, but you may not be able to create new items beyond the limits.
5. Your content
You retain all rights to the projects, schedules, and other content you create or import. You grant us only the limited rights needed to host, process, display, and back up that content in order to operate the Service. Export your data at any time via the built-in XML and Excel exports. Our handling of personal data is described in the Privacy Policy.
6. Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- use the Service for unlawful purposes or to store unlawful content;
- attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Service, other users' data, or underlying infrastructure;
- probe, scan, disrupt, overload, or circumvent security or usage limits of the Service;
- resell, sublicense, or provide the Service to third parties as your own offering without our written consent;
- use automated means to scrape or bulk-extract data other than through the export features provided.
We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms, with notice where practicable.
7. AI features
AI-assisted features (such as dependency suggestions and task parsing) produce automated suggestions that may be inaccurate. You are responsible for reviewing AI output before relying on it for scheduling, contractual, or financial decisions.
8. Availability and support
We aim for high availability but the Service is provided without an uptime guarantee. Maintenance, updates, or events beyond our control may cause interruptions. Support is provided by email at support@spark2plan.com on a reasonable-efforts basis.
9. Disclaimer of warranties
The Service is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that scheduling calculations fit any particular contractual or regulatory standard. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain warranty exclusions, in which case they apply only to the extent permitted.
10. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Spark²Plan (Paolo Taverna) shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, revenues, data, or business opportunities, arising from or related to your use of the Service. Our total aggregate liability for any claim arising out of these Terms or the Service is limited to the amounts you paid us in the twelve (12) months preceding the claim (or CAD $50 if you have paid nothing). Nothing in these Terms excludes liability that cannot be excluded under applicable law.
11. Termination
You may stop using the Service and request account deletion at any time. We may terminate or suspend access for material breach of these Terms. Upon termination, your right to use the Service ceases; provisions that by their nature should survive (including Sections 9, 10, and 12) survive termination.
12. Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the Province of Québec and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute shall be brought before the courts of Québec, Canada, and you consent to their jurisdiction — except where applicable consumer-protection law grants you mandatory rights or venue.
13. Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be reflected on this page with an updated "Last updated" date, and where reasonable we will provide additional notice. Continued use of the Service after changes take effect constitutes acceptance.
