Terms and Conditions
These terms are an agreement between you and Anajyo (anajyo.com) (“we”) for the Watching app and the related parent and child experiences. The software project is also called MeritScreen. By creating a parent account, pairing a device, or tapping agree on the consent screen, you accept these terms and the Privacy Policy.
1. Who may use Watching
You must be a parent or legal guardian, and at least 18 years old (or the age of majority where you live). You may set up Watching only for a child you are allowed to parent. Children do not accept these terms and do not create accounts.
You are responsible for the accuracy of the child’s nickname and age band, and for getting any other guardian’s permission if you need it.
2. The service
Watching lets you approve apps, set time blocks, require a short quiz, and lock non-emergency apps after a missed quiz. On Android, a child device can use Watching as the Home screen. Emergency calling, such as the Phone app, is meant to stay available during a lock.
The service includes cloud storage of your family rules and reports (Google Firebase), optional AI quizzes (Google Gemini), email one-time codes (Resend), and optional YouTube lesson videos.
3. Your responsibilities
- Keep your email, Google account, and parent PIN under your control. Anyone with the PIN can open settings on the child device.
- Do not share one-time codes or pairing codes. Pairing codes expire quickly and should be used only by you.
- Choose an age band that fits the child. Quizzes and videos follow that band.
- Review allowed apps. Watching does not decide that a third-party app is safe, accurate, or appropriate.
- Supervise the child. Watching is a tool, not a replacement for you.
4. What a phone can and cannot enforce
Android does not let a normal consumer app silently prevent uninstall, hide system settings in every case, or block every bypass a determined person can try. Watching does not use an Accessibility Service to trap navigation, and it does not use Device Admin to pretend uninstall is impossible.
Controls can fail or weaken if the child removes Watching as the Home app, revokes Usage Access, force-stops the app, changes the clock, or uses another profile. We design the app to keep the last trusted rules and to show you device status. We do not promise uninterrupted or perfect enforcement on every phone model.
5. Acceptable use
You may not:
- Use Watching to monitor an adult, a stranger, or a child you have no right to supervise.
- Attempt to break pairing, security rules, or another family’s data.
- Upload unlawful content in a parent note, or use the service to harass or harm a child.
- Probe, scan, or overload the service except through a good-faith security report to privacy@anajyo.com.
- Misrepresent Watching as a school, a medical device, or an emergency service.
We may suspend an account that breaks these terms or that puts children or the service at risk. Where we can do it safely, we will tell you by email first.
6. Accounts, sign-in, and deletion
Parent sign-in is by email one-time code or Google. There is no child password. You may delete the family inside the app, or request deletion as described on the Delete account page. Deletion is permanent for the family records we control.
7. Intellectual property
Watching, its design, and its original quiz bank are owned by Anajyo or its licensors. We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to use the app for your family while you follow these terms. You do not receive ownership of the software.
You keep ownership of notes you write. You give us permission to store and process those notes only to run the feature you turned on, including sending custom learning notes to the AI provider described in the Privacy Policy.
App names and icons from the child device belong to their owners. We display them to you so you can set rules.
8. Third-party services and AI
Google, YouTube, and Resend have their own terms. A YouTube video plays under YouTube’s terms. Quiz text and video suggestions from AI can be incomplete or wrong. Check anything important yourself. Watching is not a school curriculum and not professional advice.
9. Privacy
The Privacy Policy and the children’s privacy notice are part of these terms. We do not sell personal information and we do not show ads in Watching.
10. Disclaimers
Watching is provided “as is” and “as available”. To the extent the law allows, we disclaim warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the service will be error-free, that every app will be blocked, that quizzes will be accurate, or that a device cannot be tampered with.
Some places do not allow certain disclaimers. In those places, the disclaimers apply only as far as the law allows. Consumer rights that cannot be waived still apply.
11. Liability
To the extent the law allows, Anajyo is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, lost data, or lost screen-time control, even if we were told they were possible.
To the extent the law allows, our total liability for a claim about Watching is limited to the amount you paid us for the app in the three months before the claim. If you paid nothing, the limit is zero, except where the law says a limit cannot be zero.
We do not limit liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud, or for anything else that cannot legally be limited.
12. Changes and the whole agreement
We may update these terms by posting a new version on this page and changing the date. If you keep using Watching after the update, you accept the new terms. If you do not, delete the family and stop using the app.
These terms and the Privacy Policy are the whole agreement for Watching. If a court holds one sentence unenforceable, the rest stays in effect.
13. Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of India, excluding conflict-of-law rules. Courts in India have jurisdiction, except where a consumer-protection law where you live requires a local forum. This does not remove rights you have under a mandatory local law.
