Terms of service

Last updated 30 October 2026

The agreement

These terms are an agreement between you and Baris Turker (“we”, “us”), who publishes powercouple. By creating an account or using the app, you agree to them and to our privacy policy. If you don’t agree, please don’t use powercouple.

Your account

• You must be at least 14 years old.
• An account is for one real person. Automated and fake accounts are not allowed.
• Use an email address you can receive mail at, keep your password to yourself, and tell us at baristurkerlol@gmail.com if you think someone else has used your account.
• You are responsible for what happens under your account.

How powercouple works

powercouple joins two accounts into a couple, so they can set goals and confirm each other’s progress. A couple is one woman and one man, and each person can be in one couple at a time. Either person can end the couple at any time in account settings.

What’s not allowed

Don’t use powercouple to:

• break the law, or help anyone else break it;
• share anything you don’t have the right to share, or anything sexually explicit, violent, hateful, or involving a minor;
• harass, threaten, stalk or impersonate anyone;
• pair with anyone who hasn’t agreed to it, including by guessing invite codes;
• get around the app’s security or limits, or reach accounts or information that aren’t yours;
• copy, scrape, overload or interfere with the service.

To report something that breaks these rules, email baristurkerlol@gmail.com and we will look into it promptly. Ending your couple, in account settings, immediately stops the other person seeing your information.

Your content

What you add, including goals, photos and notes, stays yours. So that we can run the app, you give us permission to store it, process it (for example, making photos smaller), and show it to you and your partner. That permission ends when the content or your account is deleted, apart from copies in backups, which are gone within 7 days.

You are responsible for what you add. We may remove content that breaks these terms.

Price

powercouple is free. If we ever charge for anything, we will tell you first, and you will never be charged without choosing to pay.

Ending your use of powercouple

You can stop using powercouple and delete your account at any time in account settings. The privacy policy explains what deleting removes.

We may suspend or close an account that breaks these terms, or that puts other people or the service at risk. Unless it is urgent, we will tell you first and explain why.

If we ever stop offering powercouple, we will tell you in advance.

Changes to the app and these terms

We improve powercouple over time and may add, change or remove features. If we change these terms in a way that matters, we will tell you in the app or by email before the change takes effect. Using the app after that means you accept the new terms.

Availability and security

We work to keep powercouple available and your information safe, but we can’t promise that the app will always be available, free of errors, or right for your needs. It is provided “as is” and “as available”.

Our app

The app itself, including its name, design, characters and code, belongs to Baris Turker. These terms don’t give you any right to use them other than by using powercouple.

Liability

As far as the law allows, we are not liable for indirect or consequential losses, or for lost data, profits or goodwill, arising from your use of powercouple, and our total liability to you for any claim is limited to what you paid us for powercouple in the 12 months before the claim.

Nothing in these terms limits liability that the law does not allow to be limited, or takes away rights you have as a consumer where you live.

The App Store

If you downloaded powercouple from Apple’s App Store, these terms are between you and Baris Turker, not Apple. Apple is not responsible for powercouple or its content and has no obligation to support it. Your licence to the app itself is Apple’s Licensed Application End User License Agreement; these terms cover your use of the powercouple service, and you must also follow the App Store’s usage rules.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of South Korea. If you use powercouple as a consumer, you also keep the protection of the mandatory laws of the country where you live, and can bring claims in its courts.
