Use of Services

Eligibility

Our Services are intended for individuals over the age of 13. If you are under 13, you must have parental or legal guardian consent to create and maintain an account. By using our Services, you affirm that you meet these requirements.

Account Registration

You may create an account on Paralino either anonymously or by providing an email and password. If you choose to register with an email, you agree to provide accurate and complete information. Accounts created through automated means or "bots" are not permitted and will be terminated.

Account Security

You are individually responsible for all data you store on the service and for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activities that occur under your account. Notify us immediately of any unauthorized use of your account.

You may receive notifications through email if you used email during sign up, and/or by push notification if you have required permissions enabled on your device. These are the only ways of contacting you proactively; if you do not meet these requirements, you will not be notified of account-related information such as potential suspension or deletion.

Automatic Removal of Inactive Accounts

Your account and data may be automatically removed if:

  • It remains inactive for a period of 12 months and is under a free plan or has an unpaid Subscription.

Inactivity is determined based on your lack of access or usage of the Services.

Account Termination by User

You may terminate your account at any time by using the account deletion feature in the Paralino app. Upon termination, all your personal data, including encrypted data, will be removed from our production servers. Data may persist in backups for up to 30 days.

Subscription Plans

Paralino offers various subscription plans, including free and premium options. Details of these plans, including pricing and features, are available within the application.
