You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account and password, including but not limited to the restriction of access to your devices and/or account. Sharing of your User login or password is prohibited. You accept responsibility for any and all activities or actions that occur under your account. You must notify us immediately upon becoming aware of any breach of security or unauthorized use of your account.

You may not use the App if you are 13 years of age or younger. By using the App, you represent and warrant that you are over the age of 13.

Securing your Kukufarm data and device

The App stores and processes personal data that you have provided to us, to provide our Service. It’s your responsibility to keep your phone and access to the app secure.

It is also your responsibility to make sure that people add to your farm are known and trusted by you. Kukufarm will not be responsible for any data loss, misappropriation and misuse resulting caused by malicious use by people you’ve added to your Kukufarm farm. 

We recommend that you do not jailbreak or root your phone; the process of removing software restrictions and limitations imposed by the official operating system of your device. It could make your phone vulnerable to malware/viruses/malicious programs, compromise your phone’s security features and it could mean that the App won’t work properly or at all.

Farms

User Content submitted or modified by users in the App is organized into separated sections we refer to as “Farms,” and is titled by a User account as User’s Farm.

In the App, you can work across multiple Farms at once, meaning your single account can access your own Personal Farm and other Farms to which you’ve been added. Farms are completely separate, and you won’t be able to link any Content between them.

By adding other users to your Farm, you recognize that those users can view your Farm’s data and make new record entries. Users that you can add to your Farm must have an active Kukufarm account.

For effective use, the App requires you to enter respective farm, coop and flock, data and records. You are solely responsible for ensuring that all data entered in your Kukufarm’s profile, by you or people you’ve added to your farm, is accurate and correct. 

If you are added to a Farm, you must not knowingly enter erroneous records, copy, distribute, or share in any way, another user’s Farm data without their consent. You will be solely responsible for all damages that may result from any misuse, malicious use, and misappropriation of another user’s Farm data. 

While Kukufarm may suggest and provide flock feeding and vaccination schedules, it is your responsibility to ensure that you adhere to a schedule specific to your flock, and region by following your flock supplier’s, veterinary’s and regional livestock advisory’s recommendations.

Subscriptions

Some parts of the App are made available on a paid subscription basis. Pricing and included features for the Subscriptions are set forth in the Upgrade page of the App. 

Fees and fees changes: Kukufarm has full discretion to, at any time, modify the subscription fees and structures. Any fee changes will become effective at the end of the then-current billing cycle.

Free use: the App has a free plan by default, but with limited feature access. Upon the expiry of a paid subscription, respective users will be reverted to the free plan, and will effectively lose features and functionality that are only accessible in paid subscriptions.

Refunds: Payment obligations are non-cancelable. Subscription fees paid are non-refundable. If you can cancel a paid subscription, that subscription will remain active until its respective expiry date. 

At any time and without notice, Kukufarm reserves the right to (a) modify the terms and conditions of any Free plan; (b) cancel any Free Trial offer; or (c) cancel any Free Trial Subscription at any time.
