1. About these Terms
These Terms of Service (the "Terms") are an agreement between you and Adams Eden LLC ("Adams Eden," "we," "us" or "our"). They cover the Adams Eden website at adamsedenbranson.com, the Adams Eden mobile app, our online shop, and everything we offer through them (together, the "services").
Please read them carefully. Section 6 explains that payments for plans are not refundable. Sections 14 and 15 limit what we are responsible for, Section 16 makes you responsible for certain claims against us, and Section 18 explains how disputes are handled.
2. Accepting these Terms, and changes to them
You accept these Terms by ticking the box that says you agree to them, when you create an account or when we ask you to. Accepting them electronically has the same effect as signing them on paper. If you use the website without an account, these Terms apply to that use too. If you don't agree to these Terms, don't use the services.
We keep a record of each acceptance: the account, the version of these Terms, the date and time, and the IP address and device it came from.
We may change these Terms. When we do, we will publish the new version on this page with a new "Last updated" date and ask you to accept it before you continue using your account. Every earlier version stays available at adamsedenbranson.com/terms/ followed by its date (for example, /terms/2026-10-08). If you don't accept a new version, you can stop using the services and cancel your plan as described in Section 6.
3. Who can use Adams Eden
You must be at least 13 years old to use the services. The services are not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their personal information.
If you are under 18 (or under the age of majority where you live), you may use the services only with the agreement of a parent or legal guardian, who accepts these Terms on your behalf and is responsible for your use. Only adults may buy a plan or place an order.
You may not use the services if we have previously closed your account for breaking these Terms, or if the law does not allow you to use them.
4. Your account
- Give us accurate, current information when you create your account, and keep it up to date.
- Keep your sign-in details secure. You are responsible for everything that happens under your account. Tell us promptly if you think someone has used it without your permission.
- An account is for one person. Don't share your sign-in; a Pro plan gives each person on a team their own account.
- If you sign in with Google or Apple, their terms also apply to that sign-in.
5. Pro teams
A Pro plan lets the account that pays for it (the "owner") add other people to a team that works in the owner's garden or farm in the services.
- The owner is responsible for everyone they add to their team, for what those people do in the services, and for their following these Terms. Each team member also has their own account and accepts these Terms themselves.
- Everything a team adds to the owner's garden or farm, including plans, plantings, harvest records, notes and photos, belongs to the owner's account.
- When the owner removes someone from the team, or the owner's plan ends, that person loses access to the owner's garden or farm immediately.
- Credits shared with a team belong to the owner's plan.
6. Plans, billing and cancellation
6.1 Plans
Some of the website can be used for free. The mobile app and other features require a paid plan. The features, price and billing period of each plan are shown on our plans page and in the app before you buy.
6.2 Automatic renewal
Paid plans renew automatically at the end of each billing period (monthly or yearly, as you chose), and we or the app store will charge your payment method at the price then in effect, until you cancel.
6.3 Free trials
If a plan starts with a free trial, it becomes a paid plan when the trial ends and you will be charged then, unless you cancel before the trial ends. The length of the trial and the price you will pay afterwards are shown before you start it.
6.4 Cancelling
You can cancel at any time. Cancelling stops your plan from renewing. Your plan keeps working until the end of the billing period you have already paid for, and then ends.
- Plans bought on the website: cancel from your plan page.
- Plans bought in the app: cancel in your Apple App Store or Google Play subscription settings. Deleting your Adams Eden account does not cancel an App Store or Google Play subscription.
6.5 No refunds
Payments for plans are non-refundable. We do not give refunds or credits for partial billing periods, unused time, unused credits, or a plan you did not use, including when you cancel and when we suspend or close your account under Section 17. This does not limit any refund the law requires us to give. Purchases made through the App Store or Google Play are billed by Apple or Google, and any refund of them is decided by Apple or Google under their own policies.
6.6 Price changes
We may change plan prices. We will tell you by email or in the services before a new price applies to you, and it will apply from your next renewal after that notice. If you don't want to pay the new price, cancel before that renewal.
6.7 Credits
Some features, such as seed packet scanning, use credits that come with your plan. Credits refill on your billing date each month, do not roll over, have no cash value, cannot be transferred or sold, and end when your plan ends.
6.8 Payment and taxes
Payments are processed by third parties such as Stripe, Apple and Google; we do not store your full card details. Prices do not include taxes unless we say so. If a payment fails, we may pause or end your plan.
7. Shop orders
When you place an order in our shop, you are offering to buy the products at the prices shown, plus any shipping and tax shown at checkout. We may refuse or cancel an order, for example if a product is out of stock, a price or description was wrong, or we cannot ship to your address. If we cancel an order, we will refund what you paid for it.
Plants and seeds are living products. Their size, color and appearance vary, and how they grow depends on conditions we do not control after delivery. Delivery dates are estimates, and we are not responsible for delays caused by carriers or weather.
Our Returns Policy is the only guarantee we give on products. It explains what counts as defective, how and when to report it, and what we will do about it. Product orders are covered by the Returns Policy, not by the no-refunds rule for plans in Section 6.5.
8. Gardening information, alerts and automated features
The services provide general gardening information and planning tools. They are not professional agricultural, horticultural, medical or safety advice. Results depend on your soil, weather, climate, care and many other things we do not control, and you are responsible for the decisions you make about your garden.
Weather, frost dates and alerts
Weather forecasts, frost dates and climate information come from third parties and from estimates, and can be wrong. Frost and freeze alerts, watering reminders and other notifications can arrive late, be wrong, or not arrive at all: they depend on outside data, your device and notification settings, your phone and email providers, and network connections. Do not rely on them as your only protection for your plants.
Automated and AI features
Plant identification, seed packet scanning and other automated features use software, including artificial intelligence, that can make mistakes. Check what they produce before you rely on it.
We are not responsible for lost or damaged plants, crops or harvests, or other losses that come from relying on information, alerts or features in the services (see Section 15).
9. Your content
You keep ownership of what you add to the services, such as garden plans, notes, photos, journal entries and reviews ("your content").
You give us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license, which we may pass on to the service providers who help us run the services, to host, store, copy, process, adapt (for example, resize a photo), display and share your content as needed to provide, improve and support the services. Content you choose to make public, such as a product review, may be shown publicly and used in our marketing with the name you posted it under. We may excerpt it but will not change its meaning.
You are responsible for your content, and you confirm that you have the right to share it and that it does not break the law or anyone else's rights. We may remove content that breaks these Terms or the law. We apply the same rules to every review, whatever its rating.
If you send us ideas or suggestions, we may use them without paying you or owing you anything. Keep your own copies of anything important to you; we are not responsible for lost content.
10. Rules for using the services
You agree not to:
- use the services for anything illegal or to infringe anyone's rights;
- upload viruses or other harmful code, or interfere with how the services work;
- try to get into accounts, systems or data you are not allowed to access, or probe or test their security;
- harass, abuse or harm anyone, or post false, misleading or fake content, including fake reviews;
- copy, scrape or collect our plant database, growing guides or other content, by hand or by automated means, or use them to build a competing product or to train artificial intelligence models;
- reverse engineer or decompile the app or website, except where the law allows it;
- sell, rent or share access to the services, or add people beyond the seats your plan includes.
11. Our content, and your license to use the services
The services, including our software, plant database, growing guides, text, photos, designs, and the Adams Eden name and logo, are owned by Adams Eden LLC or the people we license them from, and are protected by intellectual property laws. Some photos are licensed from third parties and may not be copied.
We give you a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable and revocable license to use the services for your own gardening, under these Terms. We keep all other rights. We may change, add or remove features at any time.
12. Third-party services
The services rely on other companies, such as weather data providers, Apple, Google, Stripe, Shopify, Firebase and shipping carriers. Their services have their own terms, and we are not responsible for them or for their availability. Links to other websites are provided for convenience; we do not control those websites.
13. Apple App Store and Google Play
If you downloaded the app from Apple's App Store:
- These Terms are between you and Adams Eden LLC, not Apple, and Apple is not responsible for the app or its content.
- Apple's Licensed Application End User License Agreement also applies, and you may use the app only on Apple-branded devices that you own or control, as that agreement allows.
- Apple has no obligation to provide maintenance or support for the app.
- If the app fails to meet a warranty that applies to it, you may notify Apple, which may refund the app's purchase price, if any. Apple has no other warranty obligation for the app.
- Apple is not responsible for any claims relating to the app, including product liability claims, claims that it fails to meet a legal or regulatory requirement, consumer protection or privacy claims, or claims that it infringes someone's intellectual property. To the extent these Terms make anyone responsible for those claims, it is Adams Eden LLC.
- You confirm that you are not in a country subject to a U.S. government embargo and are not on a U.S. government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
- Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and may enforce them against you.
If you downloaded the app from Google Play, Google Play's terms also apply.
14. Disclaimer of warranties
The services, and all information, alerts and content in them, are provided "as is" and "as available." To the fullest extent the law allows, Adams Eden LLC disclaims all warranties, whether express, implied or statutory, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, non-infringement and accuracy. We do not promise that the services will be uninterrupted, error-free or secure, that alerts or notifications will be delivered on time or at all, that information in the services is accurate or complete, or that anything you grow will succeed.
Products bought from our shop are covered by the guarantee in our Returns Policy. To the extent the law allows, that guarantee replaces all other warranties for products, and any implied warranty that the law does not let us disclaim is limited to the length of that guarantee.
Some states do not allow implied warranties to be excluded, or limits on how long they last, so some of this section may not apply to you.
15. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent the law allows: (a) Adams Eden LLC and its owners, members, managers, employees, contractors and suppliers will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, revenue, data, goodwill, plants, crops or harvests, arising out of or relating to the services or these Terms, even if we were told such damages were possible; and (b) our total liability for all claims arising out of or relating to the services or these Terms, under any legal theory, will not exceed the greater of the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the event that gave rise to the claim, or $100.
These limits apply even if a remedy fails of its essential purpose. They do not limit liability that the law does not allow to be limited, such as liability for fraud, or for death or personal injury caused by our negligence where the law forbids limiting it. Some states do not allow these limits, so some of them may not apply to you.
16. Indemnity
You agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless Adams Eden LLC and its owners, members, managers, employees and contractors from any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of: your content; your use or misuse of the services; your breaking these Terms or any law; or, if you own a Pro team, the actions of the people on your team. We will tell you about any such claim, and we may take control of its defense at your expense.
17. Suspension and termination
You can stop using the services at any time, and you can delete your account in the app or on the website. Deleting your account does not cancel an App Store or Google Play subscription, and does not entitle you to a refund.
We may suspend or close your account, and end your access to the services, immediately and without notice if we believe you have broken these Terms or the law, misused the services, or harmed or put at risk other people or us, or if the law requires us to. If we do, your plan ends immediately and you will not receive a refund for any part of it, including any time or credits left. We may also stop offering the services, or any part of them.
When your account ends, your right to use the services ends, and we may delete your content as our Privacy Policy describes. Sections 6.5, 8, 9, 14, 15, 16, 18 and 19, and any other part of these Terms that by its nature should continue, continue to apply after your account ends.
18. Disputes and governing law
Talk to us first
If you have a dispute with us, email us at travis.adams@adamsedenbranson.com with your name, the email address on your account, a description of the problem and what you would like us to do. We will do the same if we have a dispute with you. We will both try in good faith to resolve it informally. If it is not resolved within 30 days, either of us may start a formal proceeding.
Governing law
These Terms, and any dispute between you and us, are governed by the laws of the State of Missouri, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules, except where federal law applies.
Where disputes are heard
Any lawsuit must be brought only in the state courts located in Taney County, Missouri, or in the United States District Court for the Western District of Missouri, and you and we agree to the personal jurisdiction of those courts. Either of us may instead bring an individual claim in small claims court, if it qualifies.
19. General terms
- Entire agreement. These Terms, together with our Returns Policy and the plan, price and order details shown when you buy, are the entire agreement between you and Adams Eden LLC about the services, and replace any earlier agreements about them. Our Privacy Policy explains how we collect and use personal information; it is a notice to you and is not part of this agreement.
- Severability. If any part of these Terms is found unenforceable, it will be enforced as far as the law allows, and the rest of these Terms will stay in effect.
- No waiver. If we don't enforce part of these Terms, that does not mean we have given up the right to enforce it later.
- Assignment. You may not transfer these Terms or your account to anyone else. We may transfer these Terms, for example as part of a sale, merger or reorganization of our business.
- Events beyond our control. We are not responsible for delays or failures caused by things beyond our reasonable control, including weather, natural disasters, carrier delays, power or internet outages, and failures of third-party services.
- Notices. We may send you notices at the email address on your account or show them in the services. Send notices to us at the email address in Section 20.
- Relationship. These Terms do not create a partnership, employment or agency relationship between you and us. Apart from Apple, as described in Section 13, no one else has rights under these Terms.
- Headings. Section titles are for convenience only and do not affect what these Terms mean.
