Plain-English summary
Cronometer's Terms of Service contain several clauses that may put you at risk. Your use of the service is at your own risk, with the company disclaiming responsibility for inaccuracies or service failures. You voluntarily assume all associated risks and agree the company is not liable for damages (risk_flags-1, risk_flags-2, risk_flags-3). The company is also not liable for unauthorized account access, even if you notify them (risk_flags-4). If you interact with third-party professionals through the service, you assume all risks, and the company disclaims all liability for these interactions, including the qualifications and advice of these professionals (risk_flags-5, risk_flags-6, risk_flags-7). Additionally, any 'Usage Data' you contribute, including sensitive information like diary entries, becomes the property of Cronometer without compensation (data_use-1). Finally, premium services will automatically renew unless you actively cancel them (cancellation_renewal-1).
