Welcome to Dialshots. These terms explain what you can expect from us, and what we ask of you when you use the app. Reading them is not the fun part of espresso, we know, but they are short.

01 What Dialshots is

Dialshots is a free web app that helps home baristas log and dial in espresso shots. You can use it as a guest, or sign in with email to sync your shot logs across devices.

02 Who can use it

You need to be 18 or older, or have permission from a parent or guardian, to use Dialshots. If you are using it on behalf of an organization, you confirm you are authorized to accept these terms on its behalf.

03 Your account

You can use most of Dialshots without an account. If you choose to sign in with email:

You can delete your account at any time from the app settings.

04 Your data

The espresso shots, coffee bags, tasting notes, and equipment details you log in Dialshots belong to you. We store them so you can access them later. We do not sell them, and we do not use them for advertising.

You can export or delete your data at any time from the app settings.

05 Acceptable use

To keep Dialshots working well for everyone, please do not:

We may suspend accounts that violate these rules.

06 Affiliate links

Some product recommendations in Dialshots include Amazon affiliate links. If you buy something after clicking one, we may earn a small commission, at no extra cost to you. This helps keep Dialshots free. We only recommend gear we think is useful, but we cannot guarantee it is right for you.

07 Service availability

We do our best to keep Dialshots working, but we cannot promise it will always be available, error-free, or fit for any particular use. Dialshots is provided "as is", without warranties of any kind, express or implied.

Espresso quality still depends on you, your beans, and your gear. Dialshots gives feedback based on the data you enter. It is a tool, not a guarantee.

08 Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent allowed by law, Dialshots and its operators are not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the service, including any lost data. If we are found liable for anything, our total liability is limited to whatever you paid to use Dialshots, which for the free tier is zero.

09 Changes to the service

We may add, change, or remove features over time. If we make a significant change that affects how you use Dialshots, we will try to give reasonable notice.

10 Changes to these terms

If we update these terms, we will post the new version here and update the effective date at the top. If the changes are significant, we will let you know inside the app or by email.

11 Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the Province of Quebec and the federal laws of Canada. Any dispute will be handled in the courts of Quebec.
