Terms of Service
Last updated 28 October 2026
These terms cover edie, a family organiser built and run by Kathryn Clifton (trading as "edie"): the app, her WhatsApp number and your family's edie email address. edie is free during the pilot. There's no subscription or payment today, so those terms aren't here yet. If that changes, this page will be updated first and you'll be told directly, with fair notice, before anything is charged.
Who can use edie
edie is for parents, carers and other grown-ups aged 18 or over, organising their own family. Children in the family don't use edie themselves. If you connect a calendar, list or email you share with someone else (a co-parent, for example), you confirm you're entitled to share it with edie.
AI accuracy: please read this one
edie uses AI to read what you send and plan with you. She can make mistakes: misreading a date, putting something on the wrong person, or missing something altogether. edie is a helper, not a guarantee. Please always check anything important or time-sensitive yourself, especially medical, school, payment or legal deadlines, and allergies in meal plans and recipes.
Your login
You sign in with a code texted to your mobile, so keep your phone and any password you add to yourself. You're responsible for what you connect, send or ask edie to do for your family.
Acceptable use
Please don't use edie for anything unlawful, or try to disrupt, overload or break it.
Availability
edie is a pilot, run on ordinary hosting, and depends on services Kathryn doesn't control (WhatsApp and Vonage, Google, Apple and Anthropic). There's no guarantee it will always be available.
Liability
edie is provided as it is, without warranties beyond what the law requires. Nothing in these terms limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud, or for anything else that can't legally be limited or excluded, nor does it affect your statutory rights as a consumer.
Ending the service
You can stop using edie at any time, and Delete the family, on Account, removes everything she holds about you. Kathryn may also suspend or close an account, for example if the service is misused.
Changes to these terms
You'll be told in the app or on WhatsApp before any change that affects you significantly.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales. If you're a consumer living in Scotland or Northern Ireland, you can also bring a claim in your local courts.
