By creating an account or using Family Nest, you agree to these Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the service.
Family Nest is a private family documentation and memory preservation platform. You can create journals, upload photos and videos, record voice memos, save recipes, build a family tree, and share content with invited family members.
Kid accounts may be created and managed by adult family members. Whoever enters payment information must be 18 or older. You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account credentials.
Free plan: Available at no cost with feature limitations as described on our pricing page.
Annual plan ($79/year): Billed annually via Stripe. Your subscription will automatically renew unless cancelled before the renewal date. You may cancel at any time through the billing portal in your account settings.
Legacy plan ($349 one-time): A single payment for lifetime access. Includes all current and future features, data export, and Nest Keeper designation.
Annual plan: You may request a full refund within 14 days of your initial purchase or renewal. After 14 days, no refunds are provided but you retain access until the end of your billing period.
Legacy plan: You may request a full refund within 30 days of purchase. After 30 days, no refunds are provided as this is a lifetime purchase.
If you cancel your Annual plan, you retain access to paid features until the end of your current billing period. After that, your account will be downgraded to the Free plan. Your data is not deleted; however, content exceeding Free plan limits will become read-only until you upgrade again or delete content.
Storage add-ons: Storage add-ons are billed annually. If you cancel a storage add-on, you retain the extra storage until the end of the paid billing period. After cancellation takes effect, a 30-day grace period begins. During this period, you can reduce your storage usage to fall within your base plan limit. If your usage still exceeds your limit after the grace period, Family Nest will automatically remove your largest media files (photos and videos) to bring your account within its limit. Journal entries, stories, and recipes are never automatically deleted.
You retain full ownership of all content you upload. We do not claim any rights to your content. You are responsible for ensuring your content does not infringe on others' rights or violate applicable laws.
You agree not to upload illegal content, malware, or content that violates the rights of others.
Your data is yours. Annual and Legacy plan members can export all family data at any time using the data export feature in account settings. If we ever discontinue the service, we will provide at least 12 months' notice and a data export tool for all users, regardless of plan.
Legacy plan members can designate a Nest Keeper who will inherit access to the family's data. If the account holder becomes inactive for 12 consecutive months, the designated Nest Keeper will be notified and can claim ownership of the Family Nest.
We strive for high availability but do not guarantee 100% uptime. Scheduled maintenance will be communicated in advance. We are not liable for temporary service interruptions.
Family Nest is provided "as is." To the maximum extent permitted by law, we shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising from your use of the service. Our total liability shall not exceed the amount you have paid us in the 12 months preceding the claim.
We may update these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be communicated via email to registered users at least 30 days before taking effect. Continued use after changes constitutes acceptance.
These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Province of British Columbia and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein. Any disputes arising under these Terms shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of British Columbia, Canada.
