These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of LightDeck, a software-as-a-service product provided by Evening Glow LLC ("we", "us", "our") to home-services contractors ("you", "your"). By creating an account or using LightDeck, you agree to be bound by these Terms.
LightDeck is a web application that helps contractors build, review, and, when separately enabled, deliver proposals for outdoor lighting and related home-services jobs. We provide the software; you provide the inputs and remain responsible for your pricing, scope, customer information, and every proposal you choose to use.
You must be at least 18 years old, authorized to act for your business, and part of the invited U.S.-based business cohort to use the current beta. Your exact email must be added to the invitation list before sign-in creates access. You're responsible for keeping your account credentials secure and for activity under your account. Notify us immediately if you suspect unauthorized access.
LightDeck is currently a free closed alpha, by invitation. Paid checkout is not open. There is no card requirement, charge, subscription, trial clock, or auto-renewal in the beta, and a beta account will not become paid merely because the beta ends.
If we later offer a paid service, we will show you the price, billing cadence, cancellation terms, refund terms, and any updated terms before you make a separate affirmative purchase. Those future terms are not final and do not apply to the current beta. A price shown inside the app during the beta is a planned figure, not an offer.
This section replaces the earlier draft-only description for invited pilot accounts with customer publishing and email enabled. These capabilities are enabled separately for eligible accounts, so availability follows the capabilities enabled for your account. If anything below conflicts with another section about beta capabilities, this section governs.
On for you:
Off for you:
Real customer data is expected in this pilot. Because publishing and customer email are on, you will be entering real names, addresses, phone numbers, email addresses, and property photos. You are responsible for having the right to collect and share them, and Section 7a governs how we process them.
If the pilot ends, or your access ends. A proposal your customer already signed is a record of an agreement between you and that customer. It does not stop being one. We will tell you before pilot access closes, and leave you a window to export what the product exports and save a PDF of every document, signed or not. We have not set a fixed retention period for signed records yet, so we are not going to print a number we cannot stand behind: what we will do is keep them while your account exists, tell you before anything is removed, and produce a copy on request while we hold one. Keep your own PDF of anything that matters to you. Your customer's contract is with you, not with LightDeck, so nothing here cancels, suspends, or changes a job your customer already signed.
Support is best effort and has no guaranteed response time. Stop using the affected job and contact us if you see a wrong total, blank PDF, lost work, another account's data, an unexpected credential or payment prompt, or any outbound action you did not deliberately initiate. Do not work around a safety lock.
You agree not to:
You retain ownership of all content you upload to LightDeck: your company branding, photos, pricing data, customer records, proposal text, and uploaded PDFs. You grant us a limited license to host and process that content solely to provide the service. We don't sell your data. We don't train AI models on your data without your explicit consent.
Customer delivery is available to invited pilot accounts with that capability enabled (Section 3a), so real customer information may reach the service. You are responsible for permission to collect and share it and for handling it in accordance with applicable privacy laws. Section 7a is the data-processing agreement that covers it.
This section is the data-processing agreement between you and LightDeck for any personal information about your customers that reaches the service. It applies whether or not that information was entered during the closed alpha walkthrough.
Roles. You are the controller of your customer records: you decide whose information to enter, what to enter, why, and how long to keep it, and you are responsible for having the right to collect and share it. LightDeck (Evening Glow LLC) is the processor: we process those records only on your documented instructions, which are your use of the product's features and any written support request, and only to provide, secure, support, and improve the service. We do not sell them, do not use them to advertise, do not share them with other LightDeck accounts, and do not train AI models on them without your explicit consent.
What is processed. Customer name and service address, the contact details you enter, the proposal, estimate, and invoice content you build, property photographs you upload and images generated from them, the fixture placement plan, records of your customer opening a link you send (including a one-way hashed form of their IP address and their user-agent string), and the signature record if they approve: the typed name, timestamp, approved package and totals, a fingerprint of the exact document signed, and any photography and media release choice they make.
Subprocessors. We use the providers listed under "Who we share data with" in the Privacy Policy: Supabase (database hosting), Vercel (application hosting, delivery, and configured file storage), Stripe (payment processing where a payment feature is separately enabled), Google (sign-in and optional map features), Google Fonts (typography on the pages your customers open), Resend (email delivery), Twilio (text-message delivery when configured and permitted), OpenAI and Anthropic (AI generation and verification features you choose to use), and ATTOM (optional property data you configure). That list is the authoritative one and changes to it are published there. We bind each subprocessor to confidentiality and to protections no weaker than this section, and we remain responsible for their processing.
Security and incidents. We apply the measures described under "Security" in the Privacy Policy. We restrict access to personnel and providers who need it. We will notify you without undue delay after becoming aware of a personal-data breach affecting your customer records, with the information we hold about it, so you can meet your own notification duties.
Assistance and customer requests. If one of your customers contacts LightDeck directly about their information, we route the request to you rather than acting on the record ourselves, and we help you respond. Your customers can read what LightDeck holds about them, and how to reach us, at Homeowner Privacy Notice.
Deletion and return. Email hello@lightdeck.tech from your account email to request deletion of specified customer records, an available export, or closure of the account. We will act on the request and tell you what applies to it. Some information may persist in security records and routine backups for a period, and where legal obligations require retention we will say so instead of deleting. We do not promise an automatic fixed deletion window; see "Data retention" in the Privacy Policy.
Precedence. Where this section conflicts with anything else in these Terms about customer records, this section governs.
We aim for high uptime but don't guarantee uninterrupted service. We may modify features, add features, or remove features over time. Material changes that reduce functionality will be communicated with reasonable notice when possible.
LightDeck uses third-party services including Google for sign-in and optional map features, Resend for transactional email, Twilio for text messages, Vercel and Supabase for hosting and storage, and OpenAI or Anthropic for enabled AI features. Optional property-data features may use ATTOM. Stripe may be used if a payment feature is separately enabled; LightDeck payment collection is off in the invited pilot, where you collect through your own payment link and account. Your use of these services may also be subject to their terms and privacy policies. We are not responsible for outages or issues caused by them.
LightDeck is provided "as is." We make no warranties, express or implied, about fitness for a particular purpose, merchantability, or non-infringement. Pricing, scope, and contractual terms in proposals you generate are your responsibility; we don't review or validate them. The financial outcome of any job is between you and your customer.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, our aggregate liability for any claim arising out of or related to LightDeck is limited to the amount you paid us in the 12 months preceding the claim. We are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages.
You may stop using the beta and request account closure, an available export, or deletion by emailing hello@lightdeck.tech. We may suspend or close access for a Terms violation, a security or safety risk, prolonged inactivity, or discontinuation of the beta. We will explain the export and deletion steps available for the account; some information may be retained where required for security, legal, or backup purposes.
We may update these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be communicated by email or in-app notice. Continued use after changes take effect constitutes acceptance.
These Terms are governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Kentucky, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles. Any dispute that can't be resolved informally will be resolved in the state or federal courts located in Fayette County, Kentucky.
