Terms of Service

Effective October 25, 2026 · Garden Manager is operated by Barstow PC Pros, California, USA

The short version Garden Manager helps you monitor and water your garden, but it controls real water equipment that can fail. Keep an eye on your garden, keep a backup plan, and understand that we can't be responsible for plant loss, water damage or water bills.

1. Agreement

These Terms are an agreement between you and Barstow PC Pros ("we", "us") about your use of Garden Manager, including garden-manager.com and the Garden Manager app (the "Service"). By creating an account or using the Service you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you don't agree, please don't use the Service.

2. Your account

You must be at least 18, or have a parent or guardian's permission, and give accurate information.
Keep your password private. You're responsible for activity in your account.
Only connect equipment and outside accounts that you own or are allowed to control.

3. Watering and equipment: please read

Garden Manager sends commands to real valves and relies on sensors, Wi-Fi, the internet, outside services and your equipment. Any of these can fail, be inaccurate, or stop without warning. Sensors can lose contact with the soil, valves can stick, batteries can die, and automatic rules may water too much, too little, or not at all.

You remain responsible for your garden, plants, irrigation system and property, including checking them regularly and keeping a backup watering plan.
Alerts, charts and automatic watering are aids, not guarantees.
To the fullest extent allowed by law, we are not responsible for plant or crop loss, water damage, flooding, leaks, water bills, equipment damage, or any other loss caused by watering, not watering, or relying on the Service.

4. Other companies' products and services

Garden Manager works with equipment and services from other companies, such as Ecowitt, LinkTap, Netro and Orbit B-hyve. We are not affiliated with or endorsed by them, and their names and trademarks belong to them. Their products and services are covered by their own terms. Some connections, including B-hyve, use interfaces that the maker does not officially support. Any of these companies can change or stop their services at any time, which may cause features of Garden Manager to stop working.

5. Acceptable use

Don't misuse the Service. For example, don't try to access other people's accounts or devices, interfere with or overload the Service, reverse engineer it except where the law allows, or use it for anything illegal.

6. Your content

Your garden information, photos and notes belong to you. You give us permission to store and process them only to provide the Service to you. You can delete them, or your whole account, at any time.

7. Changes and availability

We're continually improving Garden Manager and may add, change or remove features. We aim to keep the Service running reliably, but it may be interrupted for maintenance, updates or reasons outside our control. Some features are part of a paid plan; we'll always show the price before you're charged.

8. Garden Manager Pro subscriptions

Some features (such as watering by soil moisture, phone alerts, smart checks and full history) are part of Garden Manager Pro, a paid subscription billed monthly or yearly at the price shown before you subscribe. Payments are processed by Stripe; we never see or store your full card number.

Renewal: your subscription renews automatically at the end of each billing period until you cancel.
Cancel anytime in Settings → Plan → Manage plan. You keep Pro until the end of the period you've paid for, and you won't be charged again.
Refunds: payments are non-refundable and we don't give partial refunds for unused time, except where required by law.
Price changes: we'll tell you before a new price applies to your subscription, and you can cancel before it does.
Failed payments: if a payment fails, Stripe retries it for a while. If it still can't be collected, your garden moves to the Free plan. Zones set to water by soil moisture then follow their schedule or wait for you to water them; anything already watering finishes normally.

9. Ending your use

You can stop using the Service and delete your account at any time. We may suspend or close accounts that break these Terms or put the Service, other users or their equipment at risk.

10. No warranty

The Service is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement, to the fullest extent permitted by law.

11. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Barstow PC Pros will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for loss of plants, crops, property, data or profits. Our total liability for any claim relating to the Service is limited to the greater of the amount you paid us for the Service in the 12 months before the claim, or US $100. Some places don't allow these limits, so they may not fully apply to you.

12. Indemnity

If you misuse the Service or break these Terms and someone makes a claim against us because of it, you agree to cover our reasonable costs of dealing with that claim.

13. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, USA, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute will be handled in the state or federal courts located in San Bernardino County, California, unless the law requires otherwise.

14. Changes to these Terms

If we make important changes, we'll update the date above and let you know in the app or by email before they take effect. Continuing to use the Service after that means you accept the updated Terms.
