Terms of Service
Last updated: July 22, 2026 · These terms include the end-user license agreement for the Foundation Estimating application.
1. Agreement
These Terms of Service (the “Terms”) are an agreement between TP Software (“Foundation,” “we,” “us”) and the business or organization (“you,” “Customer”) accessing the Foundation Estimating application at gofoundation.io (the “Service”). By creating an account, creating or joining an organization, or using the Service, you accept these Terms on behalf of your organization and represent that you have authority to do so. The Service is offered to businesses, not consumers.
2. The Service
The Service provides tools for building estimates and proposals, managing item catalogs and document libraries, and analyzing job financial performance, including through optional connections to third-party services you authorize (such as QuickBooks Online).
3. Accounts and organizations
Access requires an account and membership in an organization workspace. You are responsible for the accuracy of information you provide, for safeguarding sign-in credentials, and for the actions of users you invite to your organization. Organization administrators control membership, data, integrations, and settings for their workspace. Notify us promptly of any unauthorized use of your account.
4. License and restrictions
Subject to these Terms, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access and use the Service for your internal business purposes during your subscription or authorized trial. You must not: (a) copy, modify, or create derivative works of the Service; (b) reverse engineer or attempt to extract source code except where such restriction is prohibited by law; (c) resell, sublicense, or provide the Service to third parties as a service bureau; (d) circumvent access controls or usage limits; (e) use the Service to build a competing product; or (f) use the Service in violation of law or third parties’ rights.
5. Your data
You retain all rights to the data your organization submits to or generates in the Service — estimates, proposals, catalogs, documents, settings, and data imported from connected services (“Customer Data”). You grant us a license to host, process, transmit, and display Customer Data solely to provide and support the Service. We do not sell Customer Data. Organization administrators may export or request deletion of Customer Data as described in the Privacy Policy.
6. Third-party connections
The Service can connect to third-party services you authorize (for example QuickBooks Online for transaction data, or address suggestions powered by Google). Your use of those services is governed by their own terms, and you are responsible for having the right to connect them. Connections to your accounting data are read-only: the Service does not write to your QuickBooks company. We are not responsible for the availability or accuracy of third-party services, and you may disconnect them at any time.
7. Estimates, proposals, and business outputs
The Service performs calculations on data and assumptions that you provide — including costs, markups, taxes, and account classifications. You are solely responsible for reviewing and approving every estimate, proposal, price, margin, report, and payment term before relying on it or presenting it to your customers. The Service does not provide accounting, tax, or legal advice, and outputs are not a substitute for professional judgment.
8. Fees and trials
Pricing, billing periods, and payment terms are presented at purchase or in an order form. Where the Service (or portions of it) is offered without charge, it is provided as a trial or evaluation and we may modify, limit, or discontinue free access with reasonable notice. Fees are exclusive of taxes; you are responsible for applicable sales and use taxes.
9. Acceptable use
You must not use the Service to store or transmit malicious code, infringing or unlawful material, or data you lack rights to; probe or disrupt the Service or its infrastructure; or attempt to access other customers’ data. We may suspend access that threatens the security or integrity of the Service, with notice where practicable.
10. Termination
You may stop using the Service and request account deletion at any time. We may suspend or terminate access for material breach of these Terms that remains uncured after notice, or for non-payment. Upon termination, your license ends. For 30 days after termination, organization administrators may request an export of Customer Data, after which we may delete it in the ordinary course of operations. Sections 5, 7, and 11–15 survive termination.
11. Disclaimer of warranties
THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND ANY WARRANTY THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR THAT OUTPUTS WILL BE ACCURATE OR COMPLETE.
12. Limitation of liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW: (A) NEITHER PARTY WILL BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST PROFITS, REVENUE, OR DATA; AND (B) OUR TOTAL LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICE WILL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNTS YOU PAID US FOR THE SERVICE IN THE TWELVE MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO LIABILITY (OR ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS IF YOU HAVE PAID NOTHING). THESE LIMITS DO NOT APPLY TO YOUR PAYMENT OBLIGATIONS OR EITHER PARTY’S INFRINGEMENT OF THE OTHER’S INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY.
13. Indemnification
You will defend and indemnify us against third-party claims arising from Customer Data, your use of the Service in violation of these Terms, or your violation of law, and we will defend and indemnify you against third-party claims that the Service, as provided by us, infringes their intellectual property rights, in each case subject to prompt notice and reasonable cooperation.
14. Changes
We may update the Service and these Terms. For material changes to the Terms we will give notice (for example, by email or in-app) at least 14 days before they take effect; continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance. The “Last updated” date above reflects the current version.
15. General
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Oregon, excluding its conflict-of-laws rules, and disputes will be resolved in the state or federal courts located there. These Terms are the entire agreement regarding the Service and supersede prior discussions. If any provision is unenforceable, the remainder stays in effect. Neither party is liable for delays caused by events beyond its reasonable control. You may not assign these Terms without our consent except to a successor in a merger or sale of substantially all assets.
