The agreement between us.

These terms govern your use of the Necessary website, One Seventy, and related services (together, the “Services”). The Services are provided by Necessary LLC, a South Carolina limited liability company (“Necessary,” “we,” or “us”).

By accessing or using the Services, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Services.

Who may use the Services

You must be at least 18 years old and able to form a binding contract to use the Services. If you use the Services for a company or another person, you represent that you have authority to bind them to these terms.

Your use of One Seventy

We give you a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use One Seventy as intended, subject to these terms and any rules that apply through Apple's App Store. You may not copy, modify, resell, rent, reverse engineer, interfere with, or try to gain unauthorized access to the Services except where the law expressly permits it.

You are responsible for your devices, Apple account, iCloud availability, and the accuracy of the session information you enter. Keep an independent copy of information you cannot afford to lose.

Your content

You keep ownership of the session details, notes, shot lists, and other content you create. You give Necessary only the limited permission needed for One Seventy to process that content on your device and through iCloud to provide the features you choose to use.

You represent that you have the rights and permissions needed for anything you add or share. Do not use the Services to store or share anything unlawful, infringing, threatening, abusive, deceptive, or invasive of another person's privacy.

Event Day

An Event Day organizer may invite participants to a live session. The organizer controls the invitation and access. Everyone invited may see the session information and participant updates shared while Event Day is active, so organizers and participants must share only what the group is permitted to see.

Shared Event Day data is stored in the organizer's private iCloud account, not on servers operated by Necessary. Ending Event Day revokes participant access. The organizer's private iCloud account retains recovery data so the app can reconcile final shot checkoffs and late updates. That recovery data has no automatic expiry; it remains until the organizer deletes the associated session or uses Delete Everything. Access changes and deletion may remain pending until iCloud is reachable. Copies participants export or save elsewhere are not deleted automatically. Necessary cannot access or recover this private iCloud data for you.

The organizer is responsible for obtaining any permissions needed to invite participants and share information about clients, crew, locations, or a session. A participant may leave an Event Day at any time.

Apple and third-party services

One Seventy depends on Apple services, including iCloud, and may interact with other services you choose to use. Those services are provided under their own terms and privacy policies. Necessary does not control them and is not responsible for their availability, security, or operation.

Safety and professional judgment

Light, weather, travel, timing, location, and other suggestions are planning aids, not guarantees. Conditions can change and estimates can be wrong. Use your own judgment, follow applicable laws and site rules, and do not rely on the Services for emergency, safety-critical, navigation, or legal decisions.

Changes and availability

We may add, change, suspend, or discontinue features. We may also update these terms. If a change materially affects your rights, we will provide reasonable notice through the Services or on this page. Continuing to use the Services after the new terms take effect means you accept them.

Termination

You may stop using the Services at any time. We may suspend or end access if you materially violate these terms, create risk or harm, or if we stop offering the Services. Terms that by their nature should continue after termination—including ownership, disclaimers, limits of liability, and dispute terms—will continue.

Disclaimers

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Services are provided “as is” and “as available.” Necessary disclaims all warranties, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, and non-infringement. We do not promise that the Services will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that data will never be lost.

Limits of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Necessary and its owners, employees, contractors, and affiliates will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, revenue, business, opportunities, goodwill, or data, arising from the Services.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Necessary's total liability for all claims arising from the Services will not exceed the greater of the amount you paid Necessary for the Services during the 12 months before the claim or $100. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain exclusions or limits, so parts of this section may not apply to you.

Governing law and disputes

South Carolina law governs these terms, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Before filing a claim, you and Necessary agree to try in good faith for 30 days to resolve it informally. Send a notice describing the issue and the relief requested to hello@necessary.email. Any claim that cannot be resolved will be brought in a state court in Beaufort County, South Carolina, or a federal court serving that county, and each party consents to those courts' jurisdiction.

General

These terms and the Privacy Policy are the entire agreement between you and Necessary about the Services. If a court finds one provision unenforceable, the rest remain in effect. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. You may not transfer these terms without our consent; we may transfer them as part of a merger, financing, reorganization, or sale of the business.
