Terms of Service

Effective Date: April 30, 2026Last Updated: April 30, 2026

1. Agreement to Terms

These Terms of Service govern your use of the Taiyaar 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 our Privacy Policy. If you don't agree, please uninstall the App.Age Requirement: You must be at least 13 years old to use Taiyaar. If you're 13-17, review these Terms with a parent or guardian.

2. About Taiyaar

Taiyaar is an iOS application that helps the South Asian diaspora swipe through Indian outfit looks curated by Tavi Gandhi (@tavigandhi), save favorites to event-specific boards with custom labels, and tap through to third-party retailers who ship internationally. Taiyaar V1 has no user accounts, no sign-in, and no in-app purchases.
Not a Retailer or Marketplace: Taiyaar curates and links to looks sold by third-party South Asian fashion retailers. Foundry is not the seller of any item shown in the App. We do not process your order, accept your payment, ship your garment, handle returns or exchanges, or provide retailer customer service. Sizing charts, fabric specifics, color accuracy, lead times, customs and duties, return windows, and refund policies are determined by the retailer. Always read the retailer's product page and terms before ordering. Foundry is not responsible for retailer errors, delays, damages, or disputes; those are between you and the retailer.
Catalog and Vendor Image Rights: Catalog imagery and product copy shown in the swipe feed are licensed from the underlying retailers and remain their property. You receive a personal, non-commercial license to view that imagery inside the App only. Do not screenshot at scale, screen-record, scrape, mirror, redistribute, or rehost catalog imagery, vendor data, or any other content shown in the App for any purpose other than personal browsing.

3. Account Registration

Some features require an account via Sign in with Apple or Google. You agree to provide accurate information, keep credentials secure, and notify us of unauthorized access. You're responsible for all account activity.

4. Premium Subscriptions and Billing

No paid plans in V1: Taiyaar V1 is free to download and use. There are no in-app purchases, no subscriptions, no auto-renewing tiers, and no paid feature gates in this version.Future changes: We may introduce paid features in a future release. If we do, we will update these Terms before any charge is made and will follow Apple App Store rules for in-app purchases, free trials, auto-renewal disclosure, cancellation, and refunds. Any future paid plan would be processed by the Apple App Store, and refund requests would be handled by Apple at https://reportaproblem.apple.com/. Foundry would not be able to issue store-purchase refunds directly.

5. User Content

Foundry's data ownership: as you use Taiyaar, the App captures your swipe activity, your saved looks, the boards and labels you create, and the preferences you set. By using the App, you grant Foundry a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free, sublicensable license to host, store, copy, transmit, process, analyze, aggregate, de-identify, create derivative works of, and otherwise use that activity and that data for any lawful business purpose, including operating and improving Taiyaar, informing Tavi's curation, training internal models for ranking and recommendation, building new products and features, and creating aggregated, de-identified insights about South Asian fashion demand. Foundry does not sell identifiable personal information.Your board labels and free-text input: you keep ownership of any free-text labels you write (for example a board name like "Aanya's mehndi"). The license you grant Foundry above includes the right to host, store, and process those labels as needed to operate the App for you. You will not include in a label any content that violates the Acceptable Use rules below.Vendor catalog: Look imagery and product information shown in the swipe feed are licensed from the underlying retailers and remain their property. You receive a personal, non-commercial license to view that content inside the App only.Tavi's content: Tavi Gandhi's name, the @tavigandhi handle, her likeness, her brand marks, her curation choices (which looks appear in the catalog and how they are sequenced), her curator notes (including the in-app "why it works" copy and any styling commentary attributed to her), and any other content authored or directed by Tavi inside the App are her property and are licensed to you for personal, non-commercial use within the App only. You may not (a) extract, scrape, download in bulk, redistribute, repackage, resell, or rehost Tavi's curated catalog or curator notes, (b) train, fine-tune, or evaluate any model on Tavi's curation or curator notes, (c) imitate Tavi's voice or persona to imply her endorsement of any product or service other than Taiyaar, or (d) use Tavi's name, handle, or likeness in advertising, sponsorship, or promotional materials without her prior written permission.Content standards: You will not submit content (including board labels) that (a) infringes a third party's intellectual property, publicity, or privacy rights, (b) is unlawful, hateful, harassing, defamatory, or sexually explicit, (c) contains malware, exploits, or material designed to circumvent the App, or (d) contains another person's private information. We may remove content that violates these standards.Deletion: To delete the data tied to your installation, email privacy@builtbyfoundry.io with the device-installation identifier shown at the bottom of the Profile screen. We will remove or de-identify your matching records within 30 days (backups purged within 90 days). Aggregated and de-identified data that no longer reasonably identifies you may be retained.

8. Third-Party Retailers

When you tap a vendor link inside Taiyaar, you leave the App and enter a third-party retailer's website. Your interactions with that retailer (including account creation, ordering, payment, shipping, customs, duties, returns, and customer service) are governed entirely by that retailer's terms and privacy policy, not Foundry's. Foundry has no control over retailer pricing, inventory, lead times, fulfillment, or product quality. We surface vendors that ship to the country you selected during onboarding, but we cannot guarantee any specific shipping outcome. Any claim, complaint, or dispute about an item or an order is between you and the retailer.
