YardHo! Terms of Service

Last Updated: June 2, 2026 (rev. 4 — added Section 4.6 (PLUNDR Beta) covering the AI item valuation feature, including beta status, no-warranty / informational-only language, photo licensing, and liability disclaimers)

These Terms of Service ("Terms") are a legal agreement between you and Weather Guy Ty LLC, an Oklahoma limited liability company doing business as YardHo! ("YardHo!," "we," "us," or "our"). By downloading, installing, accessing, or using the YardHo! mobile application (the "App") or any related services (collectively, the "Service"), you agree to be bound by these Terms.

If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use the Service.

These Terms reference and incorporate our Privacy Policy, which describes how we collect and handle your personal information.

1. Eligibility

You may use the Service only if all of the following are true:

You are at least 13 years of age. If you are under 18, you represent that a parent or legal guardian has reviewed and accepted these Terms on your behalf.
You have the legal capacity to enter into a binding contract under the laws of your jurisdiction.
You are not barred from using the Service under applicable law.
You are physically located in the United States.

YardHo! is intended for use within the United States. If you access the Service from outside the United States, you do so on your own initiative and are responsible for compliance with local laws.

2. Your Account

To post sales, receive notifications, or use other registered-user features, you must create an account.

You must provide accurate, current information when creating an account.
You are responsible for keeping your password and account credentials secure.
You are responsible for all activity that occurs under your account.
You may not share, sell, transfer, or assign your account to anyone else.
You must promptly notify us at Admin@YardHo.com of any suspected unauthorized use of your account.
You may delete your account at any time through the in-app "Delete Account" feature. Some information (including the cryptographic fingerprint described in our Privacy Policy) is retained as described in the Privacy Policy.

You may not create or use more than one YardHo! account to bypass any limit, suspension, or termination imposed by YardHo!. Doing so is a material breach of these Terms.

3. Acceptable Use

When using the Service, you agree NOT to:

Post, upload, or share content that is illegal, infringing, fraudulent, defamatory, obscene, hateful, harassing, threatening, sexually explicit, or otherwise harmful or objectionable.
Post sales for items you are not legally permitted to sell, including (without limitation) firearms, controlled substances, prescription medications, stolen property, counterfeit goods, live animals, hazardous materials, or anything else prohibited by applicable law.
Use the Service to harass, stalk, threaten, or harm any other person.
Impersonate any person or entity, or misrepresent your affiliation with any person or entity.
Post sales at addresses you do not own or have permission to host a sale at.
Use automated means (bots, scrapers, etc.) to access or use the Service except as expressly permitted.
Interfere with, disrupt, or attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Service, our servers, or any other systems.
Reverse engineer, decompile, or attempt to derive the source code of the App, except to the extent expressly permitted by applicable law.
Use the Service in any way that could damage, disable, overburden, or impair our infrastructure.
Sell, resell, rent, lease, or otherwise commercialize access to the Service without our express written consent.
Violate the rights of any third party, including intellectual property, privacy, or publicity rights.
Encourage or facilitate any of the above.

Violating any of these terms may result in immediate suspension or termination of your account, removal of your content, and (where appropriate) reporting to law enforcement.

4. Sales You Post

You are solely responsible for the sales you post on YardHo!, including their accuracy, legality, safety, and the conduct of the sale itself.

You represent that you have the right to sell every item you list and that you have permission to host the sale at the address you specify.
You are responsible for setting up, running, and safely managing your sale on the days and times you specify.
You are responsible for complying with all applicable laws, regulations, ordinances, HOA rules, and other restrictions in your area regarding the operation of garage, yard, estate, moving, or other sales.
You are responsible for any taxes that may apply to your sale.
YardHo! is not a party to any transaction between you and a buyer. We do not handle payments between buyers and sellers, do not warrant any item you sell, and have no obligation to mediate or resolve any dispute that arises between you and a buyer.
YardHo! does not verify the identity of users, the accuracy of sale listings, or the safety of any sale. You use the Service at your own risk.

You retain ownership of the photos, descriptions, titles, and other content you submit ("Your Content"). By submitting Your Content, you grant YardHo! a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free, sublicensable license to host, store, copy, display, distribute, modify, create derivative works of, and otherwise use Your Content for the purpose of operating and improving the Service. This license survives the termination of your account to the extent reasonably needed for our internal records, backups, fraud prevention, and legal compliance.

4.5 Curated Shop Listings

YardHo! also displays a directory of permanent retail businesses (thrift stores, antique shops, consignment, flea markets, farmer's markets, estate sale companies, etc.) — referred to throughout these Terms as "Shops." Shops are different from user-submitted sales in several important ways:

Admin-reviewed. Every Shop that appears in YardHo! has been reviewed and approved by YardHo!'s administrator(s) before publication. Some entries are created directly by the administrator; others are submitted by users through the "Add Your Store" feature in the mobile app or on the YardHo! website (yardho.com/shops/submit). Submitted entries are held in a private review queue and do not appear in the public directory until an administrator approves them. The administrator may approve, edit before approval, decline, or remove a submission at any time, for any reason, including but not limited to: incomplete information, off-category business type (e.g., a chain grocery store), suspected duplicates, inaccurate or misleading content, or moderation flags raised by our automated content screening (see Section 6). Decisions are at the administrator's sole discretion.
Factual directory entries. The information shown for a Shop is limited to publicly available facts the business has already published about itself — business name, street address, phone number, website, weekly opening hours, brief "about" description, category, and (optionally) photos taken of the storefront or interior.
Who may submit. Anyone may submit a Shop for review, including business owners listing their own store and customers nominating a store they like. By submitting a Shop you represent and warrant that (i) the information you provide is accurate to the best of your knowledge, (ii) you have the right to share any photos you upload (you own them or you have permission from the photographer), and (iii) the submission does not infringe on anyone else's rights or violate Section 3 (Acceptable Use). You grant YardHo! and Weather Guy Ty LLC a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license to display, reproduce, and modify your submission (including photos) in the YardHo! directory and in promotional materials for the YardHo! service, for as long as the submission remains in our system or in the public directory.
No warranty of accuracy. Shop hours, addresses, contact details, and any other information displayed on a Shop listing are provided "as is." Businesses change hours, move, close, and change ownership without notice. Always confirm directly with the Shop before relying on a listing's information for a visit. YardHo! makes no representation that any Shop is open, in business, accurately described, or safe to visit at any particular time.
No relationship implied. A Shop appearing in YardHo! does not mean YardHo! endorses, has any business relationship with, or has been authorized by that Shop. We do not collect any fees from Shops for being listed, and submitting a Shop does not give you any ownership of the resulting listing.
Shop owner requests. If a Shop owner believes their listing is inaccurate, wants additional information added, or wants their Shop removed entirely, they can email Admin@YardHo.com and we will review the request in a reasonable timeframe.

YardHo! and Weather Guy Ty LLC accept no liability for any loss or inconvenience arising from your reliance on a Shop listing, including (without limitation) wasted travel time, missed merchandise, or any interaction between you and a Shop.

4.6 PLUNDR (Beta) — AI Valuation

PLUNDR is an experimental in-app feature that, given a photo of an item, returns an AI-assisted item identification and an estimated garage-sale value range. PLUNDR is provided in Beta while we evaluate its accuracy and usefulness, and is subject to the following terms:

Informational only. PLUNDR estimates are AI-generated and are NOT appraisals, professional valuations, recommendations to buy, recommendations to sell, or representations of fact about an item's market value. Estimates may be substantially wrong, particularly for rare collectibles, items where condition heavily affects value, or items where small variant differences cause large price swings. Always verify high-value items independently — for example, by consulting recent comparable sales, an expert, or in-person inspection — before relying on a PLUNDR result for a purchase or sale decision.
No buy/sell recommendations. PLUNDR is deliberately a valuation tool, not a flipping calculator. It does not estimate online resale prices, profit margins, or investment value. If a PLUNDR result appears to suggest a "deal" or "flip opportunity," that is your interpretation and not a recommendation from YardHo! or Weather Guy Ty LLC.
No warranty of accuracy. PLUNDR results are provided "as is" without any warranty, express or implied, including any warranty of accuracy, fitness for a particular purpose, or fitness for any decision-making process. The displayed PLUNDR Score and confidence percentages are best-effort signals of model uncertainty, not guarantees of correctness.
Beta status. Because PLUNDR is in Beta, we may at any time, without notice, change how it works, restrict its availability, alter the daily scan limits, or remove the feature entirely. We may also use anonymized, aggregate scan and feedback data to evaluate accuracy and improve PLUNDR.
Photos you submit. You represent and warrant that any photo you submit through PLUNDR (i) is yours to submit or is of an item you have the right to photograph in the context you photographed it, and (ii) does not contain identifiable images of other people who have not consented to being photographed. You grant YardHo! and Weather Guy Ty LLC a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license to transmit the photo to our AI processing partner (currently OpenAI) for the sole purpose of generating the PLUNDR result. We do not retain the photo after the result is returned, and we do not use the photo for marketing or display elsewhere in the Service.
Liability. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, YardHo! AND WEATHER GUY TY LLC ACCEPT NO LIABILITY FOR ANY LOSS, OVERPAYMENT, UNDERPRICED SALE, REGRET, OR OTHER DAMAGES ARISING FROM YOUR RELIANCE ON A PLUNDR ESTIMATE, INCLUDING (WITHOUT LIMITATION) BUYING AN ITEM AT MORE THAN ITS ACTUAL RESALE VALUE, SELLING AN ITEM FOR LESS THAN ITS ACTUAL VALUE, OR ANY DECISION MADE IN RELIANCE ON THE PLUNDR SCORE, PLUNDR RANK, OR CONFIDENCE PERCENTAGES.

See the Privacy Policy for full details on how PLUNDR handles your photo and feedback data, and how long any submitted information is retained.

5. Free Sale Posts and Paid Sale Posts

YardHo! offers a limited number of free sale posts per registered user per calendar year (the "Free Quota"). The current Free Quota is two (2) sale posts per registered user per calendar year, and may be changed by us at any time with prospective effect.

Free posts.

The Free Quota is tied to your email address. If you delete your account and create a new account with the same email address, your prior usage continues to count against the Free Quota for the calendar year. See our Privacy Policy for details on the cryptographic fingerprint we use to enforce this.
The Free Quota resets on January 1 of each calendar year.

Paid posts.

Once your Free Quota for the year is exhausted, you may purchase additional sale posts through the in-app purchase flow operated by the Google Play Store. The product is called "Single Sale Post" and is currently priced at $4.99 USD per credit (subject to Google Play's currency conversion in non-US locales and to taxes, fees, or other charges Google Play may add).
Each credit allows you to post one (1) additional sale with the same features as a free post. Credits are consumed one-per-sale at the moment you successfully publish the sale.
Credits do not expire while your YardHo! account remains active. Credits are not refundable in cash and are not transferable between accounts.
If you delete your YardHo! account, any unused credits are forfeited and not recoverable.
Prices may change. Price changes take effect for new purchases only and do not retroactively change anything you have already paid for.

Refunds.

Refunds for in-app purchases are handled by the Google Play Store under Google's standard refund policy; YardHo! does not directly process refunds. If you believe you are entitled to a refund, please request it through Google Play.
If Google Play grants a refund after a credit has already been used to post a sale, YardHo! may remove the corresponding sale, reverse the credit grant on your account, or take other reasonable corrective action.
If a paid sale post is removed for violating these Terms (for example, for prohibited content), you are not entitled to a refund.

6. Automated Content Moderation

YardHo! automatically screens all user-submitted photos and text content (descriptions, titles, nicknames, reports, feature requests, bug reports, YardHo! Navigator messages, and Quick Fill ad copy) using third-party safety services. See our Privacy Policy for details on these services and how they work.

Content flagged by automated moderation may be removed, blanked, or quarantined without prior notice.
You may request a manual review (an "appeal") by contacting Admin@YardHo.com within seven (7) days of the flagged content being removed.
YardHo! has sole discretion over whether to restore any removed content following an appeal.
Repeated violations may result in account suspension or termination, with no refund of any unused paid sale posts.

7. Reports, Moderation, and Account Actions

YardHo! provides in-app reporting tools so users can flag content that may violate these Terms.

We may, but are not required to, review reports.
We may remove content, suspend or terminate accounts, refuse service to any user, and take any other action we deem appropriate, with or without notice, at any time, for any reason or for no reason.
You waive any right to claim damages or compensation from YardHo! arising from a moderation action we take in good faith.
You may not submit false or malicious reports. Doing so may result in account suspension.

8. Feedback and Suggestions

If you submit a feature request, bug report, idea, suggestion, or other feedback to YardHo! (collectively, "Feedback"), you grant YardHo! a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free, sublicensable license to use, modify, implement, share, and commercialize that Feedback for any purpose, with no obligation to compensate, credit, or notify you.

You agree that any feature, idea, or improvement YardHo! builds based on Feedback is owned solely by YardHo! and that you waive any claim of intellectual property (including copyright, trademark, patent, trade secret, or moral rights) in the Feedback itself or in anything we build based on it.

9. Our Intellectual Property

The Service, including the name "YardHo!," the YardHo! logo, the App's design, layout, source code, server code, database structure, and all related branding, text, graphics, and other materials, is owned by Weather Guy Ty LLC or our licensors and is protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws.

You may not copy, modify, distribute, sell, lease, sublicense, or create derivative works of the Service or any part of it without our prior written consent.
You may not use the YardHo! name, logo, or brand assets in any way that could imply endorsement, affiliation, or partnership without our prior written consent.
All rights not expressly granted to you in these Terms are reserved.

10. Copyright Infringement (DMCA)

If you believe content on the Service infringes your copyright, you may send a written notice to our designated agent at the email below. Your notice must include:

A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or someone authorized to act on their behalf.
Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to be infringed.
Identification of the allegedly infringing material, with enough detail for us to locate it (e.g., a sale URL or screenshot).
Your contact information (name, address, email, telephone).
A statement that you have a good-faith belief that the disputed use is not authorized.
A statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information in your notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on their behalf.

DMCA notices should be sent to: Admin@YardHo.com

If we remove content in response to a DMCA notice, we will notify the user who posted it. That user may submit a counter-notice in accordance with 17 U.S.C. § 512(g).

Repeat infringers will have their accounts terminated.

11. Third-Party Services and Links

The Service integrates with and may link to third-party services (such as Google Maps, Google Cloud Vision, OpenAI, Open-Meteo, and others described in our Privacy Policy). Your use of those services is subject to their own terms and privacy policies. YardHo! is not responsible for and has no control over the content, accuracy, reliability, or practices of any third-party service.

12. Disclaimers

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, WEATHER GUY TY LLC AND ITS AFFILIATES DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION:

The implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement
That the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, or free of viruses or other harmful components
That sale listings on the Service are accurate, complete, lawful, safe, or worth your time
That any item you buy or sell through a connection made on the Service is what it appears to be, is legally for sale, or is free of defects
That any other user of the Service is who they claim to be or will behave lawfully or safely

You acknowledge and agree that YardHo! is a directory and discovery tool for sales — not a marketplace, escrow service, or insurer. YardHo! does not facilitate, process, guarantee, or take any responsibility for transactions or interactions between users.

13. Limitation of Liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL WEATHER GUY TY LLC, ITS AFFILIATES, OR ITS OWNERS, EMPLOYEES, OR AGENTS BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR ANY:

Indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages
Loss of profits, revenue, data, goodwill, or business opportunities
Damages arising out of your access to, use of, or inability to access or use the Service
Damages arising out of any conduct or content of any other user of the Service
Damages arising out of any transaction, interaction, or dispute with any other user
Damages arising out of unauthorized access to your account or content
Damages arising out of any third-party service relied upon by the Service

OUR TOTAL CUMULATIVE LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICE OR THESE TERMS IS LIMITED TO THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNT YOU HAVE PAID TO YARDHO! IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO LIABILITY, OR (B) ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS ($100).

This limitation applies regardless of the legal theory the claim is brought under (contract, tort, statute, or any other) and regardless of whether we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties or limitations on certain damages. To the extent those laws apply to you, some of the above disclaimers and limitations may not apply, and your liability will be limited to the greatest extent permitted by law.

14. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Weather Guy Ty LLC, its affiliates, and its respective owners, employees, and agents from and against any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or related to:

Your use or misuse of the Service
Your violation of these Terms or any applicable law
Your violation of any third party's rights, including intellectual property and privacy rights
Any sale you post or any item you sell
Any dispute or interaction between you and any other user

15. Termination

We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service at any time, with or without notice, for any reason, including (without limitation) violation of these Terms.

You may stop using the Service at any time and may delete your account through the in-app "Delete Account" feature.

Upon termination:

Your right to access and use the Service ends immediately
Sections that by their nature should survive termination (including Sections 4 (license to Your Content), 8 (Feedback), 9 (our IP), 12 (Disclaimers), 13 (Limitation of Liability), 14 (Indemnification), 16 (Governing Law), and 17 (General)) will survive

16. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Oklahoma, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles.

For any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service:

You and YardHo! agree to first try to resolve the dispute informally by contacting Admin@YardHo.com. We will try in good faith to resolve disputes promptly.
If informal resolution does not succeed within sixty (60) days, the dispute will be resolved exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Garfield County, Oklahoma. You consent to the personal jurisdiction of those courts.
You agree to bring any claim only in your individual capacity and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class, collective, or representative action.

17. General

Entire agreement. These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and YardHo! regarding the Service and supersede any prior agreements.

Changes to these Terms. We may modify these Terms at any time. When we do, we will update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page. For material changes, we will provide reasonable notice (such as an in-app message). Continued use of the Service after a change takes effect means you accept the updated Terms.

Severability. If any provision of these Terms is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in full force.

No waiver. Our failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of our right to enforce it later.

Assignment. You may not assign or transfer these Terms without our prior written consent. We may assign or transfer these Terms freely.

Notices. We may give you notice through the App, by email, or by posting to our website. You may give us notice at Admin@YardHo.com.

No agency. Nothing in these Terms creates any partnership, agency, joint venture, or employment relationship between you and YardHo!.
