1. Agreement to Terms
These Terms of Service govern your use of the Garden-to-Table Companion mobile application ("App") operated by Built by Foundry, Inc., formerly known as Playpen Games, Inc. ("Foundry"). By using the App, you agree to these Terms and acknowledge our Privacy Policy. If you don't agree, please uninstall the App.Age Requirement: You must be at least 13 years old to use Garden-to-Table Companion. If you're 13-17, review these Terms with a parent or guardian.2. About Garden-to-Table Companion
Garden-to-Table Companion helps home gardeners build a personalized plan, see timely garden actions, record plant history, run guided Plant Health checks, and use or preserve a harvest in Kitchen. It is built with Matthew Gauger of Greenhorn Grove Farm. Kitchen and community features support the garden journey; livestock is not a primary product function.Gardening and Plant Health Limitations: Garden-to-Table Companion is an educational planning and reference tool. Plant Health is not a laboratory diagnosis and does not guarantee identification, diagnosis, cure, yield, safety, or outcome. Photos can hide important details, automated results can be incomplete or wrong, and garden conditions vary. The App may show confidence, request more information, or decline to give a result. Consult a local extension service or qualified professional when the risk is significant. Before applying any pesticide, herbicide, fungicide, fertilizer, biological treatment, or home remedy, read and follow the product label, local law, crop restrictions, protective-equipment requirements, and harvest interval. The label controls if App guidance conflicts with it.
Food and Preservation Safety: Recipes and Kitchen features are educational and are not professional food-safety, nutrition, or medical advice. Canning, fermentation, dairy, and preservation can carry serious risks. Follow current USDA or local extension guidance, use tested processes where appropriate, and do not eat or serve food you believe may be unsafe.
Community Content: Posts, photos, replies, recipes, and advice from members are user content, not professional advice from Foundry or Matthew Gauger. We provide reporting and moderation tools but cannot review every item before it appears. Do not rely on community content for high-risk plant treatment, chemical use, food safety, medical, legal, or financial decisions.
3. Account Registration
The App may let you use it without an account or may offer sign-in through the App, Apple, Google, or another provider. You must provide accurate information, keep your device and credentials secure, and promptly report unauthorized access. You are responsible for activity through your account unless applicable law says otherwise.4. Premium Subscriptions and Billing
Price, billing period, trial terms, and renewal details appear on the purchase screen before you confirm. The app store processes payment and controls cancellation and refunds under its rules and applicable law. Unless the purchase screen says otherwise, a subscription renews automatically until canceled through your app-store account and access continues through the paid period after cancellation.Garden-to-Table Companion Plus may unlock additional Plant Health checks, the full recipe library, and other premium features. The product, price, trial length (if any), billing period, renewal terms, benefits, and cancellation details shown on the purchase screen control. Apple or Google handles billing, cancellation, and refunds under its rules, subject to rights that applicable law does not allow you to waive.5. App Stores and Third-Party Services
Your app store's terms also apply. Apple and Google are not responsible for the App or support for it, but may be third-party beneficiaries of these Terms as their rules provide. Third-party services have their own terms and privacy practices, and we are not responsible for services we do not control.6. User Content
You keep ownership of the photos, posts, comments, recipes, notes, and other content you create.

Private garden, Kitchen, and Plant Health content is processed to operate your account. When you publish to the Kitchen Table, you grant Foundry a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to display and share that post inside the App. Optional Plant Health evaluation consent permits private quality review; it is not a marketing license.Matthew Gauger's videos, recipes, guides, photos, and teaching content are licensed for personal, non-commercial use inside the App. You may not extract, redistribute, repackage, or sell them.Do not publish unlawful, infringing, harassing, hateful, sexually explicit, dangerous, deceptive, or privacy-invasive content.

The App may show third-party seed or garden-supply offers selected for a crop and territory. These offers are clearly labeled. Foundry or Greenhorn Grove may earn an affiliate commission if you purchase after following a link, without changing the price shown by the supplier. Supplier payment never buys influence over Grow Guide or Plant Health advice. Availability, inventory, shipping, quality, returns, warranties, and the final transaction are controlled by the supplier under its own terms. Verify variety, quantity, planting zone, restrictions, and suitability before buying.8. End User License Agreement

Dispute Resolution
Before starting a formal claim, send a written notice describing the dispute and requested relief to support@builtbyfoundry.io . The parties will try in good faith to resolve it for 30 days. Either party may still seek urgent injunctive relief when necessary.US Residents
Individual arbitration: Except for an eligible individual small claims case or a claim for injunctive relief concerning misuse of intellectual property, any dispute will be resolved by binding individual arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Consumer Arbitration Rules. The Federal Arbitration Act governs this clause. The hearing may occur by video, in your county, or at another mutually agreed location. The arbitrator may award the same individual remedies as a court.Class and jury waiver: You and Foundry waive any right to a jury trial and to bring or participate in a class, consolidated, representative, or private-attorney-general action. If a court finally finds the class-action waiver unenforceable for a particular claim, only that claim may proceed in court.Opt-Out: Email support@builtbyfoundry.io within 30 days of first use with "Arbitration Opt-Out" in the subject line.Users outside the United States
The arbitration and class-waiver terms apply only where lawful. If they are not enforceable where you live, you may bring a claim in the courts where you live and retain any non-waivable local consumer protections.Governing law
Delaware law governs these Terms, without regard to conflict-of-law rules, except that the Federal Arbitration Act governs arbitration and mandatory law where you live may still apply.14. Changes to Terms
We may update these Terms as the App or law changes. We will post the revised Terms and update the date above. If a change materially reduces your rights, we will give reasonable advance notice where required. Changes apply prospectively. If you do not agree, stop using the App before the revised Terms take effect.15. Contact Information
