Terms of Use

The service

15 Minute Break provides a timed, low-stimulation break experience in your browser. It is offered as-is for personal use. Features may change or be removed without notice.

We may offer paid features in the future. If we do, separate payment terms will apply.

Not medical care

15 Minute Break is not medical care, mental health treatment, or emergency services. Nothing on this site is medical advice.

Do not use this site instead of professional care. If you have severe symptoms, chest pain, trouble breathing, weakness, confusion, or dangerously high blood pressure, seek urgent medical help.

The "Calm down" and other break contexts are for general de-stimulation only. They are not clinical programs and make no health claims.

Your responsibility

You are responsible for using the site safely — including not operating vehicles or machinery while distracted, and stepping away from the screen when appropriate.

You must not misuse the site, attempt to break it, scrape it at scale, or use it in ways that harm others or violate law.

Data and privacy

By using the site, you acknowledge that we collect anonymous usage data and approximate location data (such as country, and when available city, region or state, and timezone) as described in our Privacy Policy.

This data helps us operate the service, count breaks, and improve the product. It is not used to identify you personally unless you voluntarily submit an email address with feedback.

We do not require personal data to use the break experience. Your use of the site is also subject to our Privacy Policy.

Disclaimer

The site and content are provided "as is" without warranties of any kind. We do not guarantee uninterrupted access, specific outcomes, or that a break will resolve stress, health issues, or work problems.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the site.

Intellectual property

The 15 Minute Break name, design, cues, and code are owned by us or our licensors. You may not copy or republish substantial parts of the service without permission.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of Ontario, Canada, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Disputes will be handled in courts located in Ontario, unless applicable law requires otherwise.

Changes

We may update these terms. Continued use after changes means you accept the updated terms.
