1. Introduction

1.1 Contract

By using our Services you agree to our terms. Your use of our Services is also subject to our Cookie Policy and our Privacy Policy, which covers how we collect, use, share, and store your personal information.

You agree that by clicking “Join Now”, “Join We Are Fetching”, “Sign Up” or similar, registering, accessing or using our services (described below), you are agreeing to enter into a legally binding contract with We Are Fetching (even if you are using our Services on behalf of a company or school). If you do not agree to this contract (“Contract” or “User Agreement”), do not click “Join Now” (or similar) and do not access or otherwise use any of our Services. If you wish to terminate this contract at any time, you can do so by closing your account and no longer accessing or using our Services.



1.2 Services

This Contract applies to www.wearefetching.com, We Are Fetching-branded apps, and other WeAreFetching-related sites, apps, communications and other services that state that they are offered under this Contract (“Services”), including the offsite collection of data for those Services, such as our ads. Registered users of our Services are “Members” and unregistered users are “Visitors”. This Contract applies to both Members and Visitors.



1.3 Our Agreement

You are entering into this Contract with We Are Fetching (also referred to as “we” and “us”).

You are entering into this Contract with We Are Fetching Ltd and We Are Fetching Ltd will be the controller of your personal data provided to, or collected by or for, or processed in connection with our Services.

This Contract applies to Members and Visitors.

As a Visitor or Member of our Services, the collection, use and sharing of your personal data is subject to our Privacy Policy.



1.4 Members and Visitors

When you register and join the We Are Fetching app, you become a Member. If you have chosen not to register for our Services, you may visit our site and sign up for updates as a “Visitor.”



1.5 Change

We may make changes to this Contract.

We may modify this Contract, our Privacy Policy and our Cookies Policies from time to time. If we make material changes to it, we will provide you notice through our Services, or by other means, to provide you the opportunity to review the changes before they become effective. We agree that changes cannot be retroactive. If you object to any changes, you may close your account. Your continued use of our Services after we publish or send a notice about our changes to these terms, means that you are consenting to the updated terms.



2. Obligations

2.1 Service Eligibility

Here are some promises that you make to us in this Contract:

You are eligible to enter into this Contract and you are at least our “Minimum Age.”

The Services are not for use by anyone under the age of 16.

When using the Services, you agree that:

(1) you must be the “Minimum Age” (described below) or older;

(2) you will only have one We Are Fetching account, which must be in your real name; and

(3) you are not already restricted by We Are Fetching from using the Services. Creating an account with false information, including accounts registered on behalf of others or persons under the age of 16, is a violation of our terms,.

“Minimum Age” means 16 years old. However, if law requires that you must be older in order for We Are Fetching to lawfully provide the Services to you without parental consent (including using of your personal data, or to be responsible for a child) then the Minimum Age is such older age.



2.2 Your Account

You will keep your password a secret. You will not share an account with anyone else and will follow our rules and the law.

Members are account holders. You agree to:

(1) try to choose a strong and secure password;

(2) keep your password secure and confidential;

(3) not transfer any part of your account (e.g. to friends) and

(4) follow the law and our list of Dos and Don’ts (as detailed below). You are responsible for anything that happens via your We Are Fetching account unless you close it or report misuse.

Your account belongs to you. However, if the Services were purchased by another party for you to use (e.g. your employer), the party paying for such Service has the right to control access to and get reports on your use of such paid Service. However, they do not have rights to your personal account.



2.3 Payment

If you buy one of our paid Subscriptions (“Basic” or “Premium”), you agree to pay us the applicable fees and taxes. Failure to pay these fees will result in the termination of your extended overdraft facility. Also, you agree that:

Your purchase may be subject to foreign exchange fees or differences in prices based on location (e.g. exchange rates).
If you purchase a subscription, your payment method automatically will be charged at the start of each subscription period for the fees and taxes applicable to that period. To avoid future charges, cancel before the renewal date. 
We Are Fetching Basic and Premium subscriptions are non-refundable. If you cancel your subscription, your extended overdraft facility will expire at the end of your billing cycle.
We may calculate taxes payable by you based on the billing information that you provide us at the time of purchase.
2.4 Cancelling your subscription
If you cancel your subscription and return to a free account, you will still retain your profile, connections, and other data. However, you will lose access to the extended overdraft facility that comes with these subscription plans.

Note: If you are beyond the standard number of 10 negative credits permitted with the free account, you will not be able to raise a request for childcare until you have earned enough credits to bring your account within its permitted overdraft.

Deleting/uninstalling the Fetching app will not cancel to subscription. Subscription must be canceled through Google Play Store for Android or App Store for iOS.

More information about canceling your subscription:

To avoid getting charged for the next billing period, you need to cancel at least one day before the billing date.
Cancellation will end billing and remove your access to the extended overdraft feature at the end of your current billing cycle.
If you were on a plan, promotion, or price that is no longer offered, you won't be able to re-purchase that same plan or with the promotional price.
Is it possible to downgrade your subscription from Premium to Basic.

Details of the different subscription plans can be found here.



2.3 Notices and Messages

You agree to receiving notices and messages through our websites and apps, to your contact information. If your contact information is out of date, you may miss out on important notices.

You agree that we will provide notices and messages to you in the following ways: (1) within the Service, or

(2) sent to the contact information you provided us (e.g., email, mobile number, physical address). You agree to keep your contact information up to date.



​2.4 Fetching use

We Are Fetching is not a social network - you should not accept a friend request, or invite anyone to connect with you that you have not met in person and trust completely with the care of your child.

When you connect with another user, they become your ‘friend’ and have access to your profile information including, but not limited to, your address, your children’s names and where they go to school. By accepting a friend request from another person, you are consenting to them having visibility of this information. You are also giving consent for them to Fetch your child from school and to be responsible for them until such time when you are able to collect them.

We are not obligated to run any criminal records checks on our users. However, we reserve the right to terminate the access of any user who does not adhere to the Children Act 2004 at our sole discretion, with or without notice.

We Are Fetching serves to exchange time with other parents and guardians. No user should demand reimbursement in return for a Fetch. Deduction and crediting of hours will happen automatically via the app.

Privacy Notice For We Are Fetching Users
We Are Fetching Ltd is engaged in the design, development, sales, marketing, supply, operation and maintenance of We Are Fetching secure friend network, hours exchange, parent communication and childcare management information systems.

This notice explains to We Are Fetching users (“you/your”) how We Are Fetching Group (“we/us”) use your personal information.

This privacy notice covers:
* Why we use your personal information.
* The legal basis for processing.
* What personal information we use.
* How we use your personal information.
* Your rights under data protection legislation.
* Sharing personal information with third parties.
* How long we may keep your information.
* Changes to our privacy notice.
* Contact details for our Data Protection Officer.
Why We Use Your Personal Information
The We Are Fetching application can be downloaded from iOS and Android app providers free of charge, and is governed by the Terms and Conditions that you agree with when you sign up. We process your personal data for the following purposes:

* To provide you with the service activated and registered for.
* The verification of your identity where required.
* For the ongoing administration of the service.
* To allow us to improve the products and services we offer to our customers.
* To ask for your opinion about our products and offer surveys.
* for research and statistical analysis including childcare usage patterns. We only use the data in an anonymized manner when we use your data for this purpose.
* to offer new products and services to you which are relevant and appropriate, and only to the extent that would be reasonably expected.
If we plan to introduce further processes for the use of your information, we will provide information about that purpose prior to such processing.

The Legal Basis For Processing
Under Data Protection Law, there are various grounds which are considered to be a ‘legal basis for processing’. The legal basis for processing should be determined by the Data Controller.

We Are Fetching Ltd is Data Controller in respect of personal information that we process in connection with our business (including the products and services that we provide). 

The legal basis for processing is that it is necessary and in your legitimate interests, to facilitate the use of the app. 

It should be noted that in some circumstances this legal basis may vary, however, we always operate in full compliance with Data Protection Law and will only process data with a fair and reasonable legal basis for doing so.

What personal information we process
In order to carry out these services, we obtain from you and process the following information:

Data subject: Child
*Forename - this is the forename of the child. This is so friends and the school can identify the child.
*Class - registration group (if any), year and school class. We use it to identify the child and group them with the correct peer group.
*Dietary Requirements - this is the child’s special dietary requirements or allergies. This is so the ‘fetcher’ does not feed them anything that they do not eat.
*Photo - a photograph of the child, where one has been added. This is not essential and simply provides a visual to accompany your child’s profile.
*Device time - how much device time the child is allowed. This is so the ‘fetcher’ does not allow them more device time than you would usually allow.
*Parents - up to two users linked to the child. These are the two people that collect the child most frequently. These are only seen by the school and are the default collectors if no fetch has been raised. 

Data subject: Parents \ Users
*Forename - this is the user’s forename. So that friends and the school can identify you.
*Surname - this is the user’s surname. So that friends and the school can identify you.

*ID name - this is the name that is taken from your government ID when you verify your identity. All other information from the verification process is stored with Persona under the terms of their privacy policy.
*Residential address - the location entered as the user’s residential address. If you collect a friend’s child after school, this tells them where to come and get them from. All of your friends can see this address.
*Mobile Telephone - this is the contact’s mobile telephone number used to receive alerts from the school and friends with whom you are connected.
*Photo - a photograph of the parent/user will be shared with the school of the child they are 'fetching' so that they can be recognised when they arrive to collect the child.
*Email - this is the email you log into the app with - it is used to receive communications from We Are Fetching. It is also visible to your child’s school and the friends you are connected to.
*Location - we access your location to help you add your address more easily. We do not track it any other time.
