Terms and Conditions

Last updated: [DATE]. These terms govern your use of [SITE NAME]. By using the site, you agree to them. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.

What we provide

[SITE NAME] is a free online egg timer and a set of reference guides about boiling eggs. There is nothing to buy, no account to create and nothing to install. We provide the site as it is, on an "as available" basis.

Acceptable use

You may use this site for personal or commercial cooking purposes freely. You may not:

• Attempt to disrupt, overload or gain unauthorised access to the site or its servers.
• Scrape or systematically copy the site's content to republish it as your own.
• Use the site in a way that breaks any applicable law.
• Present the site or its content as though you produced it, or in a way that implies we endorse you.

The timer is a convenience, not a guarantee

The timer runs in your browser and depends on your device and browser behaving normally. Browsers may throttle background tabs, devices sleep, and audio can be muted at the system level. We have built the countdown to remain accurate across background tabs, but we cannot guarantee the alarm will always sound or that the timer will always run uninterrupted.

Do not rely on this timer alone where a missed alarm would cause harm. Never leave a pan on a hot stove unattended.

Accuracy of content

Our cooking times are guidelines drawn from standard egg-cookery practice. Results vary with your stove, cookware, water, altitude and the eggs themselves. See our disclaimer for the full position on cooking and food safety.

Intellectual property

The text, design, code and layout of this site are owned by us or our licensors and are protected by copyright. You may link to our pages freely and quote short passages with attribution. You may not reproduce substantial portions of the site's content without written permission.

Basic facts — such as that a large egg needs about twelve minutes to hard boil — are not owned by anyone and you are welcome to use them.

Third-party links

Where we link to other sites, we do so because we think they are useful. We do not control them and are not responsible for their content, accuracy or privacy practices.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, [SITE NAME] and its operators are not liable for any indirect, incidental or consequential loss arising from your use of the site — including spoiled food, missed alarms, or any loss resulting from reliance on our cooking times. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain exclusions of liability, in which case those exclusions may not apply to you, and nothing here limits liability that cannot lawfully be limited.

Availability and changes

We may change, suspend or discontinue any part of the site at any time without notice. We may also update these terms; the date at the top of this page reflects the current version, and continuing to use the site means you accept the updated terms.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of [YOUR JURISDICTION], without regard to conflict-of-law rules.
