Terms of Service

Agreement

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your use of WatchNext (“we”, “us”, “the Service”) at watchnext.app. By creating an account or using the Service, you agree to these Terms.

The Service is operated from Lehi, Utah, United States.

Free and Premium plans

WatchNext offers a free tier with separate per-type caps on tracked shows and movies (each capped independently) and a paid Premium subscription with additional benefits, including unlimited tracked shows and movies, an ad-free in-app experience, library export, browser push for new episodes and series status updates (ended/cancelled), in-app series status alerts, personal TV calendar with iCal/RSS feeds, WatchNext Wrapped stats, and exemption from automatic account deletion for inactivity.

Every new account receives a 30-day Premium trial starting at first sign-in. The trial does not require a payment method. When the trial ends, Premium access ends unless you subscribe through Stripe. Each account is eligible for one signup trial.

If you cancel Premium while you have more than the free-tier limit of shows or movies in your library, the over-cap titles are archived rather than deleted: they remain visible in your library marked "Archived" but do not generate alerts, emails, or other notifications, and do not count toward your active per-type cap. You may at any time remove an archived title to free its slot, or renew Premium to automatically restore all archived titles.

Premium is billed through Stripe at the prices shown on your account page (currently $1.99 per month or $9.99 per year, subject to change with notice). The 30-day signup trial is free and does not auto-convert to a paid subscription unless you choose to subscribe.

Import & calendar feeds

You may import watch history from third-party exports (such as TV Time) or connected services (such as Trakt) subject to our technical limits and your plan caps. You are responsible for ensuring you have the right to use data you upload.

Premium calendar iCal and RSS feed URLs are private credentials. Do not share them publicly. We may rotate or invalidate feed tokens if we detect abuse or at your request.

Subscriptions & billing

• Premium subscriptions auto-renew each billing period until canceled.
• You may cancel anytime through the Stripe billing portal linked from your account page. Cancellation stops future charges; Premium access continues until the end of the current paid period.
• We do not store full payment card numbers. Payment processing is handled by Stripe subject to Stripe’s terms.
• No refunds. All charges are final. We do not provide refunds or credits for partial billing periods, unused time, or accidental renewals.
• We may change subscription prices with at least 30 days’ notice before the change applies to your next renewal.
• Promotion codes may be offered from time to time and are subject to their stated terms and Stripe’s redemption rules.

Acceptable use

You agree not to misuse the Service, attempt unauthorized access, scrape or overload our systems, interfere with other users, or use the Service for unlawful purposes.

Account termination

You may stop using the Service at any time. We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms or pose a security or abuse risk.

Free accounts inactive for three months may be deleted automatically as described in our Privacy Policy. Premium accounts are exempt while an active subscription is maintained.

Disclaimers

The Service is provided “as is” without warranties of any kind. Episode data, streaming availability, and show metadata come from third parties (including TMDB) and may be incomplete or outdated.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for loss of data, profits, or goodwill arising from your use of the Service. Our total liability for any claim related to the Service is limited to the greater of (a) amounts you paid us in the twelve months before the claim or (b) USD $25.

Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Utah, United States, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Disputes shall be brought in state or federal courts located in Utah, and you consent to their jurisdiction.
