Terms of Service

Last updated: October 30, 2026

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of the websites and applications operated by Padraic McGee, doing business as Space Time Apps ("Space Time Apps", "we", "us" or "our"). That includes spacetimeapps.com and its subdomains (such as Visualis and Data), sites published on spacetimesites.com, and visual.is (together, the "Service"). Visualis and visual.is are provided by Visualis Technology G.P., based in Quebec City, and operated by Space Time Apps; section 7 sets out what is different for them.

By creating an account or using the Service, you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you use the Service for an organization, you agree on its behalf and confirm that you are authorized to do so. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

1. Accounts

You must give us accurate information and keep it current. You are responsible for your sign-in credentials, including passwords and passkeys, and for everything that happens under your account. Tell us at contact@spacetimeapps.com straight away if you think your account has been used without permission. You must be at least 16 years old, or the age of digital consent where you live if that is higher.

2. Organizations

Content and billing belong to organizations. The owners of an organization control its members, its content and its settings. They can give members billing access. If you leave an organization or are removed from it, the content you created there stays with the organization.

3. Your content

"Your Content" means everything you or your organization upload, connect, create or publish through the Service. That includes data files, spreadsheets, database connections, visualizations, sites, text and images. You keep all ownership of Your Content.

You give us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, copy, process, transmit and display Your Content. This license is only for operating, securing and improving the Service for you, and for showing Your Content the way you choose. For example, we display it to people you share it with, on public links, in embeds and on published sites. The license ends when Your Content is deleted from the Service, except for copies that remain in backups for a limited time (see the Privacy Policy).

You are responsible for Your Content. You confirm that you have the rights and permissions needed to upload, connect and publish it, including for any personal data about other people that it contains. When you make content public or embeddable, anyone with the link, or anyone visiting the page it is embedded in, can view it.

4. Acceptable use

You must not use the Service to:

  • break the law, or infringe anyone's intellectual property, privacy or other rights;
  • publish content that is unlawful, defamatory, harassing, hateful or sexually exploitative, or that promotes violence;
  • distribute malware or phishing, or collect other people's credentials;
  • send spam or unsolicited messages through sharing or invitations;
  • get around usage limits, billing locks or access controls, or access accounts or data you are not authorized to access;
  • disrupt or overload the Service, or probe, scan or test its vulnerability without our written permission;
  • resell the Service or build a competing product from it without our written agreement.

We may remove content or restrict access when we reasonably believe these Terms have been broken.

5. Third-party services

You can connect third-party services to the Service, such as Google Sheets and Google Drive. Embedded content can also come from other websites. Those services have their own terms and policies, and we are not responsible for them. If you connect a service, you allow us to access it on your behalf, but only as needed to provide the features you use.

6. Plans, usage and payment

The Service is charged by usage, such as data processing and storage. One usage allowance covers all our apps. The current plans and prices are shown on our pricing pages.

  • Free. Every organization gets a free usage allowance. Some features, such as publishing, need a paid plan.
  • Prepaid balance. Paid usage comes out of a balance that you add funds to in advance (minimum top-up $20). Our payment processor, Stripe, handles payments. The Pro plan has a minimum annual spend of $20. If your usage in a yearly billing period comes to less, we deduct the difference from your prepaid balance at the end of that period, up to the amount of the balance, and we email you when we do. If automatic renewal is on, a lower balance can trigger it.
  • Automatic renewal. Automatic renewal is off unless you turn it on. If you turn it on, we may charge your saved payment method when your balance runs low, up to the maximum amount you set, and we email you a receipt for each charge. You can turn it off at any time in billing settings.
  • Running out. If your balance is used up, or an automatic payment fails and is not resolved within a 7-day grace period, we may restrict the organization's usage, editing and publishing until it is funded. We do not delete Your Content because of a billing lock.
  • Refunds. Prepaid balances are non-refundable except where required by law. We refund any unused balance if we end the Service or close your account without cause.
  • Taxes. Prices do not include taxes unless we say they do.
  • Price changes. We will give you at least 30 days' notice of price increases. They do not affect funds you have already added.

The Customization service (custom adjustments to our apps) is arranged separately in writing.

7. Visualis and visual.is

Visualis (visualis.spacetimeapps.com) and visual.is are provided by Visualis Technology G.P., a general partnership based in Quebec City, Canada ("Visualis Technology"). Space Time Apps operates them on Visualis Technology's behalf: it runs the servers, provides support and handles billing. When you use Visualis or visual.is, the following applies in addition to the rest of these Terms:

  • Provider. Visualis Technology is the provider of Visualis and visual.is, and owns them. In these Terms, "we", "us" and "our" mean Visualis Technology and Space Time Apps for Visualis and visual.is, and each of them can rely on and enforce these Terms.
  • Operator. Space Time Apps runs Visualis and visual.is for Visualis Technology. Your account, organizations and usage allowance are shared with our other apps, so one sign-in and one balance cover all of them.
  • Payments. Space Time Apps collects payments for Visualis usage on Visualis Technology's behalf, through Stripe, under section 6.
  • Governing law. For Visualis and visual.is, these Terms are governed by the laws of the Province of Quebec and the federal laws of Canada that apply there, instead of the law in section 13. The courts of the judicial district of Quebec have jurisdiction, unless the law where you live gives you the right to bring a claim locally. Nothing in these Terms limits any rights you have under Quebec's Consumer Protection Act.
  • Contact. Questions about Visualis or visual.is can be sent to contact@spacetimeapps.com, and Space Time Apps will handle them or pass them to Visualis Technology.

Former visual.is users. visual.is (Visualis 2) is now part of Visualis. If you had a visual.is account, we copied your account and the visualizations, data and images you had a role on into the Service, so that your work and your links keep working. You can sign in with your existing email and password. If you have not signed in, the account stays inactive until you do. These Terms apply once you sign in or otherwise use the Service. If you would rather we delete the copied account, email contact@spacetimeapps.com. Visualizations that were public or embeddable on visual.is stay viewable without a paid plan for 12 months from the date they were copied. After that, the normal plan rules apply.

8. Our intellectual property

The Service, including its software, design and documentation, belongs to us and our licensors (for Visualis and visual.is, to Visualis Technology). These Terms give you no rights in it other than the right to use the Service as these Terms describe. If you send us feedback, we may use it without any obligation to you.

9. Ending your use

You can stop using the Service at any time. To have your account and Your Content deleted, email contact@spacetimeapps.com; the Privacy Policy explains how deletion works. We may suspend or end your access if you seriously or repeatedly break these Terms, if we must do so by law, or if your organization is locked for non-payment for a long time. Where it is reasonable, we will warn you first and give you a chance to export Your Content. Sections 3 (as to your responsibility), 8 and 10 to 14 continue after your use ends.

10. Disclaimers

The Service is provided "as is" and "as available". To the fullest extent the law allows, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement. We do not promise that the Service will be uninterrupted or error-free, or that calculations, charts or imported data will be accurate. Check important results yourself, and keep your own copies of important data.

11. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent the law allows, we are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for lost profits, revenue, data or goodwill. Our total liability for all claims relating to the Service is limited to the greater of (a) the amounts you paid us in the 12 months before the claim, or (b) $100. Some places do not allow these limits, so they may not all apply to you.

12. Indemnity

You will defend and indemnify us against third-party claims, and the resulting costs, that arise from Your Content or from your breach of these Terms.

13. Governing law

Except as section 7 says for Visualis and visual.is, these Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Wisconsin, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules. The state and federal courts located in Wisconsin have exclusive jurisdiction, unless the law where you live gives you the right to bring a claim locally.

14. General

These Terms and the Privacy Policy are the entire agreement between you and us about the Service. If a court finds part of these Terms unenforceable, the rest stays in effect. Not enforcing a right is not a waiver of it. You may not transfer these Terms without our consent. We may transfer them as part of a merger, acquisition or sale of assets.

15. Changes

We may update these Terms. For material changes, we will notify you by email or in the Service at least 30 days before they take effect. If you keep using the Service after that, you accept the new Terms. If you do not agree, stop using the Service and ask us to delete your account.
