Terms of Service

Last updated: July 26, 2026

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of Tend2Thrive, a professional relationship manager operated by McDoCo, LLC. By using Tend2Thrive, you agree to these Terms.

1. Acceptance of these Terms

By creating an account, asking us for access (for example by joining a waitlist), or otherwise using Tend2Thrive (the “Service”), you agree to be bound by these Terms and by our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated here by reference. If you do not agree, do not use the Service. If you are using the Service on behalf of an organization, you represent that you have authority to bind that organization to these Terms.

2. Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years old and able to form a binding contract to use the Service. The Service is intended for users in the United States. By using the Service, you represent that you meet these requirements.

3. Accounts and sign-in

Once you have access, you create and use your account with your name and email address, verified with a one-time code we send you; you may also add a phone number or connect a LinkedIn or other social profile. If a member scans you in, or you arrive on an event’s ticket link, you can start with just a name and add an email later to keep your account. You are responsible for the activity that occurs under your account and for maintaining the security of the email account, phone, or connected profile you use to sign in. Notify us promptly at hello@mcdoco.com if you believe your account has been compromised.

4. Access to the Service

Access to the Service, or to particular features or levels of access, may be open, limited, invitation-based, or otherwise offered at our discretion, and what is available to you may vary over time. When access is limited we may ask you to request it — for example by joining a waitlist, where you give us an email address and we invite people as we have room. Requesting access does not entitle you to an account, and we do not commit to a timeframe. You may also be brought in directly by someone already using the Service — for example a member inviting you to connect, an event host, or an organization’s invite link — and some connections are made in person when an existing member scans your connect code.

Any access or invitation we extend is personal and limited, and granted at our discretion (and, where applicable, the discretion of an inviting member). We make no guarantee of continued access or of any particular feature, and we may add, change, limit, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Service or any access method at any time.

5. Your content and contacts

The Service lets you record information about your professional relationships — including contacts, notes, the dates and places you met or last spoke, and reminders (“Your Content”). As between you and McDoCo, you retain ownership of Your Content.

You grant McDoCo a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, store, process, display, and otherwise use Your Content solely to operate, provide, secure, and improve the Service for you. We do not sell Your Content. You can export or delete Your Content as described in our Privacy Policy.

Messages you send. A message you send to another member becomes part of their record of the conversation as well as yours. Messages cannot be unsent or deleted one by one, and deleting your account does not remove them from the other member’s account. The conversation is detached from your account and marked as no longer connected to it, while the other member continues to see the contact name they saved for you themselves. If you later create a new account, earlier conversations are not reattached to it. Send accordingly.

6. Data about other people

Tend2Thrive lets you store information about other people who may not be users of the Service. This is a meaningful responsibility, and you agree to the following:

• You will only add information about another person that you have lawfully obtained and have the right to store, such as information shared directly with you or that the person has made available to you.
• You will use that information only for your own legitimate relationship-management purposes and not for unlawful, harassing, or deceptive purposes.
• You are responsible for responding to any request from a person whose information you have stored, to the extent the law requires it of you, and for honoring any request to stop contacting them.
• If a person whose information you have stored asks us to remove it, we may do so and may notify you.

You are solely responsible for Your Content and for your interactions with the people in your network. McDoCo does not send messages to your contacts on your behalf except where you expressly direct it (for example, generating an invitation link).

7. LinkedIn and other third-party services

Tend2Thrive integrates with LinkedIn and may integrate with other third-party services. Your use of those services is governed by their own terms and policies, including the LinkedIn User Agreement. You agree to use those integrations in compliance with the applicable third party’s terms. We are not responsible for third-party services, and they may change or discontinue access to their data or APIs at any time, which may affect the Service.

8. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

• use the Service to violate any law or the rights of others, including privacy and intellectual-property rights;
• scrape, harvest, or collect data from the Service except through features we provide for that purpose, or use the Service to build a competing product;
• upload or store information you do not have the right to store, or that is unlawful, harassing, or harmful;
• interfere with, disrupt, probe, or attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Service or its infrastructure;
• misrepresent your identity or your affiliation with any person or entity; or
• resell, sublicense, or commercially exploit the Service without our written permission.

If you believe someone is violating these Terms or misusing the Service, you can report it from within the Service or by emailing us at hello@mcdoco.com. We may review activity on the Service and flag, restrict, suspend, or remove accounts as described in Section 14.

9. Intellectual property

The Service, including its software, design, text, and trademarks (including the names “Tend2Thrive” and “McDoCo”), is owned by McDoCo or its licensors and is protected by intellectual-property laws. Except for the rights expressly granted to you in these Terms, we reserve all rights. These Terms do not grant you any right to use our trademarks without our prior written consent.

Feedback. If you send us feedback, a bug report, or a suggestion — through the Service or any other way — you grant McDoCo an unrestricted, royalty-free, perpetual licence to use it to improve the Service, with no obligation of confidentiality, attribution, or compensation. This lets us act on what you tell us without having to track where an idea came from. It does not give us any rights in Your Content.

10. Early access and changes to the service

The Service is offered on an early-access basis and is under active development. Features may be added, changed, or removed, and the Service may contain bugs or be unavailable from time to time. We may change, suspend, or discontinue all or part of the Service at any time.

If we discontinue the Service. What you build up here is a record of your own relationships, so we will not simply switch it off. If we decide to discontinue the Service altogether, we will give you notice by email to an address on your account and a reasonable period — at least 30 days from that notice — during which you can still export Your Content. Export is available to you at any time regardless (see our Privacy Policy); this is our commitment that the door stays open long enough to use it.

11. Disclaimers

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE,” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE, OR ERROR-FREE, OR THAT ANY DATA WILL BE ACCURATE OR PRESERVED WITHOUT LOSS.

12. Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, McDOCO AND ITS OFFICERS, MEMBERS, EMPLOYEES, AND AGENTS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, OR GOODWILL, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE. McDOCO’S TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS RELATING TO THE SERVICE WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNTS YOU PAID US FOR THE SERVICE IN THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM, OR (B) ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS ($100). SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW CERTAIN LIMITATIONS, SO SOME OF THE ABOVE MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

13. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless McDoCo and its officers, members, employees, and agents from any claims, liabilities, damages, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or related to Your Content, your use of the Service, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of any law or the rights of a third party — including any person whose information you store in the Service.

14. Suspension and termination

You may stop using the Service and delete your account at any time. We may review activity on the Service and may flag, restrict, suspend, or terminate an account — with or without notice — if we believe it violates these Terms or the law, or poses a risk to other users or to the Service, or if we discontinue the Service. Where appropriate, we may take a lesser step, such as limiting features, instead of terminating. Upon termination, the rights granted to you under these Terms end. Sections that by their nature should survive termination — including ownership, disclaimers, limitation of liability, and indemnification — will survive.

15. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. If we make material changes, we will take reasonable steps to notify you, such as by posting a notice in the Service or updating the date above.

For a material change to these Terms or the Privacy Policy, we do not rely on your continued use as agreement: the Service asks you to accept the updated documents before you can carry on using it, and the rest of the Service stays closed until you do. For any lesser change, your continued use after it takes effect means you accept the revised Terms.

16. Governing law and disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. You agree that any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service will be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in California, and you consent to the personal jurisdiction of those courts.

Before filing anything, please email us at hello@mcdoco.com with a short description of the dispute. Most problems can be resolved that way, and we will make a genuine attempt to do so.

17. General

Severability. If any provision of these Terms is held unenforceable, that provision will be limited or removed to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions will stay in full force.

No waiver. If we do not enforce a provision of these Terms, that is not a waiver of our right to enforce it later.

Entire agreement. These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy, are the entire agreement between you and McDoCo about the Service, and they replace any earlier agreement or understanding about it.

Assignment. You may not assign or transfer these Terms or your account without our written consent. We may assign these Terms to an affiliate or in connection with a merger, acquisition, financing, or sale of assets.

Electronic communications. You agree that we may provide notices, disclosures, and other communications about the Service to you electronically — by email to an address on your account, or by posting them in the Service.

Events outside our control. We are not liable for any delay or failure to perform caused by something beyond our reasonable control, including outages at an infrastructure or third-party provider the Service depends on.

No third-party beneficiaries. These Terms do not create any rights for anyone other than you and McDoCo.

Survival. Sections that by their nature should survive termination — including ownership, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnification, governing law, and this section — will survive.
