These Terms of Service set out the conditions for using ikutoco (the “Service”). By using the Service, you (the “User”) are deemed to have agreed to these Terms. This is an English translation provided for convenience. If there is any inconsistency, the Japanese version shall prevail.
Article 1 (Scope)
These Terms set out the conditions under which the Service is provided and the rights and obligations between the operator and Users. These Terms constitute standard terms (teikei yakkan) under the Civil Code of Japan, and by using the Service, the content of these Terms becomes part of your contract.
Individual notices posted within the Service (including the Privacy Policy, Disclaimer, and Legal notice (Specified Commercial Transactions Act)) form part of these Terms. If there is any inconsistency between these Terms and an individual notice, the individual notice prevails.
Article 2 (Accounts)
You must sign in with a Google or Apple account to use the Service. Each User may hold only one account, and may not lend or transfer an account to any third party.
You are responsible for managing your account, and any action taken through your account is deemed to have been taken by you, except where it is attributable to the operator.
Using the connection methods provided by the Service, you may use the Service from external services (including AI assistants). An external service you authorize to connect may, on your behalf, view, add, change, and delete the content registered in the Service. You are responsible for deciding whether to authorize a connection and for managing the services you have authorized, and any action taken through such a service is deemed to have been taken by you.
Article 3 (Fees and plans)
The Service offers a plan that can be used free of charge and a paid plan (Pro). Fees, payment methods, payment timing, and cancellation terms are as set out in the Legal notice (Specified Commercial Transactions Act). What is available on each plan is shown on the plans screen within the Service.
Paid plans renew automatically on each renewal date unless canceled. After you cancel, you can continue to use the paid plan until the end of the period you have already paid for (no prorated refunds are given).
A paid plan you subscribe to in the iPhone app through the App Store is billed to your Apple Account. Cancellation, refund requests, and changes to the payment method follow Apple’s procedures (such as canceling in iPhone Settings). You cannot subscribe to the same paid plan on both the website and the app at the same time.
Article 4 (Plan limits and ads, and paid-plan-only features)
The Free plan has limits on the number of Places, Itineraries, and Proposals you can save, and on the number and duration of share links. The limit values are shown on the plans screen within the Service.
For any type that has reached its limit, you will no longer be able to add new items. In that case, you can still view, edit, and delete that content, and show it to others through share links. If you delete items you no longer need and fall below the limit, you can resume adding.
In addition, some features of the Service are available only on a paid plan. The features concerned are shown on the plans screen within the Service.
On the Free plan, ads are shown on some screens of the Service. Ads are not shown on paid plans.
The operator will not delete the content entrusted to it on the ground that a limit has been reached (except in the case of suspension of use under Article 7 or termination of the Service under Article 8). The same applies if you cancel a paid plan and end up exceeding the Free plan limits: you can still view and delete your content.
The number of items for which a paid plan sets no limit is not itself limited. However, to provide the Service stably, on every plan there is a limit on how many times each account can register, change, delete, or load content within a given period (“rate limits”). Guideline values for the rate limits are published in the FAQ. Operations that exceed a rate limit are not accepted until a certain amount of time has passed.
Article 5 (Share links)
You may create share links for the Proposals and Itineraries you create and show them to third parties. Shared pages are read-only, and third parties who view them cannot modify the content.
Anyone who knows a share link can view its content. You are responsible for how you handle your links. You can revoke a link you have created at any time from the Service’s screens. Share links have an expiration date, after which they can no longer be viewed.
Article 6 (Prohibited conduct)
When using the Service, you must not engage in any of the following conduct.
- Conduct that violates laws or regulations or public order and morals
- Conduct that infringes the copyrights, trademark rights, portrait rights, privacy, or other rights of third parties
- Registering a third party’s personal information without that third party’s consent, or publishing it through a share link
- Conduct that interferes with the operation of the Service (including unauthorized access, placing excessive load on the Service, and large-scale retrieval or registration by automated means other than the connection methods provided by the Service)
- Even when using the connection methods provided by the Service (including its screens, the remote MCP server, and bulk import), repeatedly registering, changing, deleting, or loading content in volumes that significantly exceed what is normally expected for personal use, such as repeatedly exceeding the rate limits in Article 4, and using multiple accounts to avoid the rate limits
- Copying, accumulating, or redistributing information obtained through the Service without the permission of the rights holder
- Impersonating another User or the operator
- Any other conduct similar to the above that disrupts the operation of the Service or other Users
You warrant that, for any image you upload to the Service, you hold the necessary rights or have obtained permission from the rights holder.
If the operator determines that an uploaded image may infringe the rights of a third party, or if a rights holder or other third party makes a request, the operator may delete the image without prior notice.
Article 7 (Restriction and suspension of use)
If a User engages in conduct prohibited under the preceding Article, or if there are reasonable grounds to suspect such conduct and it disrupts or may disrupt the stable provision of the Service, the operator may take the following measures according to the severity of the situation.
- A notice asking the User to change how the Service is used
- Restricting the features or volume available (including stopping registration and changes; during this time the User can still view and delete registered content, cancel a paid plan, and delete the account)
- Temporarily suspending use of the Service (including stopping share links created by the User from being viewed)
- Deleting the account and the content stored in it
Before taking any measure under the preceding paragraph, the operator will notify the User of the measure and the reason at the account’s email address. However, if the Service or other Users are actually being disrupted and an immediate response is required, if there is conduct that violates laws or regulations, or if the User cannot be contacted, the operator will give notice promptly after taking the measure.
The measure in item 4 of paragraph 1 (deletion) is taken only if the operator has confirmed conduct prohibited under the preceding Article, has asked the User in the notice to correct it within a reasonable period, and the conduct has not been corrected within that period. Until deletion, the operator will allow the User to view registered content and print it or save it as a PDF.
If you disagree with a measure, you can file an objection through the contact form. The operator will review the objection and, if it determines that there were no grounds for the measure, will promptly lift it.
Fees already paid are not refunded when a measure is taken. However, if it turns out that there were no grounds for the measure, the operator will refund the fees corresponding to the period of the measure (for payments made through the App Store, refunds are issued by Apple, and the operator will explain how to request one). The operator’s liability for any damage incurred by a User as a result of a measure is as set out in Article 11.
Article 8 (Changes, interruption, and termination of the Service)
The operator may change the content of the Service. However, where it makes a significant change that is disadvantageous to Users, such as discontinuing a feature available on a paid plan, it will give advance notice within the Service a reasonable period beforehand. The operator may also interrupt the provision of all or part of the Service due to system maintenance, outages, the suspension of external services, or other operational reasons.
The operator may terminate the provision of the Service. If it does so, the operator will endeavor, to the extent possible, to give advance notice within the Service. However, this does not apply where there are unavoidable circumstances.
The operator’s liability for any damage incurred by Users as a result of changes to, or interruption or termination of, the Service is as set out in Article 11.
Article 9 (Changes to these Terms)
The operator may change these Terms in any of the following cases.
- When the change conforms to the general interests of Users
- When the change does not conflict with the purpose of the contract and is reasonable in light of the necessity of the change, the appropriateness of its content, and other circumstances
When changing these Terms, the operator will make the changed content and its effective date known within the Service or on its website. When making a change that is disadvantageous to Users, the operator will give notice a reasonable period of time before the effective date. If you use the Service after the effective date has passed following such notice, you are deemed to have agreed to the changed Terms.
If you do not agree to the changed Terms, you may cancel a paid plan or delete your account before the effective date. No cancellation fee is charged.
Article 10 (Handling of data and deleting your account)
The content you register is handled as set out in the Privacy Policy. You can delete your account at any time from the Account page of the Service.
When you delete your account, all content entrusted to us is deleted and cannot be restored.
The operator does not guarantee that it will continue to store the content you register or that it will restore lost content. The operator’s liability where content is lost due to outages, operational errors, termination of the Service, or other causes is as set out in Article 11. If you need a copy of any content, please print it or save it as a PDF yourself.
Article 11 (Disclaimer of warranties and limitation of liability)
The Service is provided “as is.” The operator does not warrant that the Service will be fit for any particular purpose of a User, that it will have the functionality, accuracy, or usefulness the User expects, or that it can be used without interruption or defects (this paragraph is not intended to exempt the operator from liability; the scope of liability is governed by the paragraphs below). The disclaimer regarding the accuracy of information shown in the Service is as set out in the Disclaimer.
The Service includes features, such as creating share links, that allow Users to show content to third parties. The operator is not responsible for any dispute arising between a User and a third party, and such disputes are to be resolved between the parties concerned.
Where a User incurs damage as a result of the operator’s ordinary negligence (negligence other than gross negligence), the operator is liable only for direct damages that would ordinarily arise. The operator is not liable for damages arising from special circumstances, such as lost profits, loss of business opportunities, or loss of data (including where the operator foresaw or could have foreseen them).
The limitations of liability in this Article do not apply in cases of willful misconduct or gross negligence by the operator.
Article 12 (Governing law and jurisdiction)
These Terms are governed by the laws of Japan. Any dispute between the operator and a User relating to the Service shall be subject to the agreed jurisdiction, as the court of first instance, of the district court having jurisdiction over the operator’s location (this does not affect any jurisdiction available under law where the User is a consumer).
