1. What Bercail does
Bercail helps a household get organised: shopping lists, an inventory of what is stored, a budget and shared expenses, a common calendar. The app works without an account on a single phone; with an account, the household is shared between its members' phones.
What the app reads or guesses can be wrong. Receipt scanning, aisle sorting and suggestions are automatic: check them before you confirm. Bercail is an organisation tool, not accounting software or financial advice. Reminders may arrive a few minutes late when the phone is in deep sleep.
2. Your account
Accounts are for people aged 16 and over. You are responsible for keeping your sign-in details private. An account is personal: each household member uses their own.
3. The household and its roles
- The owner creates the household, invites and removes members, assigns roles and can delete the household.
- A member sees and edits the household's data.
- A guest (babysitter, flatmate) sees and edits the household's data, but not the members' cards.
Only add people who actually share the household, and only enter about other people what is useful to organise the household.
4. Acceptable use
- Personal and family use.
- No illegal or hateful content, nothing that infringes other people's rights.
- No automated requests, no attempt to get around technical limits or to access another household's data.
Technical limits protect the service (for example 1,000 items per list); they are far above normal use. In case of obvious abuse, access may be suspended.
5. Free use and subscription
Shopping is free, with no limits. The Inventory is free up to 50 items. The Household Pack and the à-la-carte modules unlock paid features for the whole household: one member pays, everyone benefits.
- Subscriptions are sold and charged by Google Play, at the price Play shows when you buy, and renew automatically until cancelled.
- You can cancel at any time from your Google Play account; access stays open until the end of the paid period. Refunds follow Google Play's rules.
- The 7-day free trial only starts if you accept it, once per household. Nothing is bought without your consent.
- When a subscription ends, your data stays: paid modules are locked, and everything comes back if the subscription resumes.
6. Your content
What you enter belongs to you and your household. You only grant us the right to host it and pass it on to your household's members, to provide the service. See the Privacy page.
7. Availability
Bercail works offline and syncs when the network is back. Sharing depends on a third-party host and on the network: interruptions are possible. We do not guarantee permanent availability. Export your data if it matters to you.
8. Liability
To the extent permitted by law, the publisher is not liable for indirect damage resulting from the use of the app, in particular a decision based on an automatically read amount, a missed reminder or a data entry error.
9. Stopping and deleting
You can stop using Bercail at any time and delete your account from Settings → Delete my account. Uninstalling the app does not delete the account: delete it first.
10. Governing law
These terms are governed by French law. In case of dispute, an amicable solution will be sought before any action.
