Terms of Service

Welcome to Tinderbyte. These Terms of Service govern your access to and use of the Tinderbyte website, Chrome extension, subscription plans, and related services.

By installing, accessing, purchasing, or using our Service, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, you must not use the Service.

1. About the Service

Depending on your subscription plan and available features, the Service may include:

  • Smart Job Matching: Discover job opportunities based on your skills, expertise, and search preferences.
  • Mobile Job Notifications: Receive notifications about relevant job opportunities.
  • AI-Powered Proposals: Generate AI-assisted proposal drafts tailored to individual job descriptions.
  • Profile Statistics: View and monitor relevant Upwork profile statistics.
  • Job Search Analytics: Review job-search activity and performance insights.
  • Upwork MCP Integration: Connect with Upwork through its official Model Context Protocol (MCP) server to support supported workflows.

Features and functionality may vary depending on your subscription plan, technical availability, and third-party service limitations.

2. Eligibility and Account Responsibility

To use the Service, you must:

  • Be legally capable of entering into a binding agreement.
  • Provide accurate information when creating an account or purchasing a subscription.
  • Maintain the confidentiality of your account credentials and licence key.
  • Use the Service only for lawful purposes.
  • Comply with these Terms and all applicable third-party platform policies.

You are responsible for all activities conducted through your account, subscription, and licence.

You must notify us promptly if you become aware of unauthorized access to your account or licence.

3. Upwork Integration and Third-Party Services

Our Extension connects with Upwork through Upwork’s official MCP server.

However, Tinderbyte is an independent third-party product. We are not owned, operated, sponsored, endorsed, or officially affiliated with Upwork, Inc.

Upwork and its associated trademarks, services, and products belong to their respective owners.

Your use of Upwork remains subject to Upwork’s own terms, policies, and requirements.

You agree that:

  • You must maintain your own valid Upwork account where required.
  • You must authorize and manage your Upwork connection through the supported authentication process.
  • You will comply with Upwork’s Terms of Service and applicable policies.
  • You will not use our Extension to violate Upwork rules, manipulate platform activity, or engage in prohibited conduct.
  • You are responsible for reviewing and approving actions performed through your Upwork account.

We do not control Upwork’s platform, MCP server, availability, API access, account restrictions, or changes to its services.

We are not responsible for interruptions, limitations, account suspensions, or other actions taken by Upwork.

4. AI-Generated Content and Proposals

Our Service may use artificial intelligence to generate proposal drafts, recommendations, job summaries, and other content.

You acknowledge and agree that:

  • AI-generated content may contain errors, inaccuracies, or incomplete information.
  • Generated proposals are suggestions and may require editing.
  • You are responsible for reviewing all AI-generated content before using or submitting it.
  • You must ensure that proposals accurately represent your skills, experience, qualifications, and capabilities.
  • You must not submit misleading, fraudulent, plagiarized, or deceptive content.
  • You are responsible for ensuring that your final communication complies with Upwork’s policies.

We do not guarantee that AI-generated proposals will result in interviews, invitations, contracts, or employment.

Unless a feature expressly states otherwise, generating a proposal draft does not mean that the proposal has been submitted to a client.

You remain responsible for deciding whether, when, and how to submit any proposal.

5. Job Matching and Notifications

Our job-matching functionality helps identify opportunities that may be relevant to your skills and preferences.

You understand that:

  • Job matches are automated suggestions and may not always be accurate.
  • We do not guarantee that every relevant job will be discovered.
  • Job availability, client requirements, budgets, and descriptions may change.
  • Notifications may be delayed, interrupted, or unavailable due to technical issues or third-party services.
  • Receiving a notification does not guarantee that a job is still available.

You are responsible for reviewing job details and determining whether an opportunity is suitable before applying.

6. Subscriptions and Pricing

Certain features of the Service require a paid subscription.

We may offer different subscription plans, including Free, Pro, Pro Plus, or other plans introduced in the future.

Each plan may have different:

  • Feature availability.
  • Job-search limits.
  • Notification intervals.
  • AI proposal credits.
  • Analytics functionality.
  • Device or installation limits.
  • Usage restrictions.

The features, prices, billing periods, and limitations applicable to your purchase will be displayed during checkout or on our pricing page.

We reserve the right to introduce new plans, modify existing plans, or adjust pricing. Changes to an existing subscription’s price will be communicated as required by applicable law and payment-provider requirements.

7. Automatic Renewal and Cancellation

Where a subscription is offered on a recurring basis:

  • Your subscription may automatically renew at the end of each billing period.
  • The applicable subscription fee will be charged using your selected payment method.
  • You authorize the payment provider to process recurring payments for your subscription.
  • You may cancel your subscription using the available account or subscription-management options.

Cancellation generally prevents future renewals. Unless otherwise stated or required by applicable law, cancellation does not automatically provide a refund for the current billing period.

Your access to paid features may continue until the end of the period already paid for, subject to the applicable plan conditions.

8. Payments and Refunds

Payments for paid subscriptions are processed through the payment provider presented during checkout.

By completing a purchase, you agree to the applicable payment-provider terms and authorize the processing of your payment.

Unless otherwise required by applicable law or expressly stated in our refund policy:

  • Subscription payments are generally non-refundable once a billing period has started.
  • Partial billing periods are not automatically refunded.
  • Unused AI credits or subscription benefits are not automatically refundable.
  • Duplicate or incorrectly processed payments may be reviewed for correction or refund.

Nothing in these Terms limits any mandatory refund, cancellation, or consumer rights available under applicable law.

For billing assistance, contact us using the details provided in the Contact section.

9. AI Credits and Usage Limits

Some AI-powered features may operate through a credit-based usage system.

Depending on your subscription plan:

  • You may receive a specified number of credits.
  • Credits may be used when generating AI-powered content or using designated features.
  • Different operations may consume different amounts of credits.
  • Credit balances and usage limits may be displayed within the Extension or your account.

Credits are intended for use within the applicable subscription and are not cash, stored monetary value, or transferable funds.

Unless expressly stated otherwise:

  • Credits cannot be sold, transferred, exchanged, or redeemed for cash.
  • Unused credits do not automatically roll over into a subsequent billing period.
  • Credits may expire when the relevant subscription period ends.
  • Additional usage may require purchasing another plan or credit allocation.

We may apply reasonable usage restrictions to prevent abuse, excessive automated requests, or misuse of the Service.

The applicable credit allocation and expiry conditions will be communicated through the relevant plan or purchase information.
