Terms of Service · Tapebook, the trading journal
Last updated: 28 October 2026 · Polski
These terms apply when you use Tapebook, the trading journal, and our pages for it. Tapebook is an online service made and provided by Northern Lights Tomasz Krygowski, ul. Chmielna 73B lok. 14, 00-801 Warszawa, Poland, NIP 6842525717, registered in CEIDG (Polish business register), trading as Dojiwave ("we"). Contact: [email protected].
1. Who sells it and who provides it
You buy a Tapebook subscription from Paddle.com Market Limited, 30 Old Bailey, London, EC4M 7AU ("Paddle"), our reseller and Merchant of Record. Paddle takes your payment, issues your invoice, handles tax, runs your subscription and handles refunds, under its own Buyer Terms and Refund Policy. We make Tapebook and provide the service, your account and support. If these terms and Paddle's differ on payment, tax, invoices, renewals or refunds, Paddle's terms apply to those.
2. What we provide
- Tapebook, the trading journal, at tapebookapp.dojiwave.com: you sign in to your account in a browser, on your computer and on your phone, and work in the same journal on both.
- Storage for your journal on our servers: your trades, accounts, notes, plans and cash flow, and up to 2 GB of trade screenshots per account.
- Backups of every journal, made daily (section 9), and a way to download your whole journal at any time (section 9).
- Example data in Tapebook (Show demo data), so you can look around before you subscribe. It needs an account.
- Information about Tapebook on our pages, and the waiting list, described in our Privacy Policy.
- Support by e-mail at [email protected].
3. What you need
An internet connection, a current web browser with JavaScript on, on a computer or a phone, and an e-mail address. If your connection drops, Tapebook keeps working with what is already on your device and sends your changes when you are back online.
4. Your account
- One account is for one person. Tapebook is for adults: you must be 18 or older. You create your account in Tapebook and accept these terms when you do; then you go to our sales page to subscribe.
- Signing in: with your e-mail address and a password. You can also protect your account with a second sign-in step: a code from an authenticator app. It's optional, and you turn it on yourself under Two-step sign-in in Settings > Account and plan.
- Keep your sign-in details to yourself and don't share your account. Tell us at once at [email protected] if you think someone else has used it.
- Your journal is for your own trading records. You must not use Tapebook to store other people's personal data.
5. Plans and prices
There are two plans: monthly and yearly. The price of each is shown on our page and again at checkout. Where Paddle charges VAT or a similar tax for your country, the amount shown includes it; in the United States and Canada, sales tax is added at checkout where it applies. Checkout always shows the total you pay before you pay.
6. Renewal and cancelling
- Your subscription renews automatically at the end of each period (every month or every year) until you cancel.
- Your price stays. Your subscription renews at the price you paid when you subscribed, for as long as it renews without a break, even if we raise the price of Tapebook later. A break means your subscription has ended: you cancelled and the period you paid for ran out, or a renewal payment still failed after Paddle's retries. If you switch to the other plan, or subscribe again after a break, the current price applies. The price that stays is the price before tax. If the tax rate for your country changes, or you move to a country with a different rate, the total you pay changes with it from your next renewal.
- You can turn off renewal at any time in Settings > Account and plan, or in Paddle's customer portal (Invoices and payment method). You keep access until the end of the period you have paid for. Deleting your account also turns renewal off and ends your access at once. If you delete your account before the end of the period you have paid for, you can ask us to refund the unused part; see section 10. To subscribe again, you go back to our sales page ("Renew" or "Choose a plan"). Cancelling stops the next renewal; your current period stays paid, and Tapebook works as usual until it ends. Then section 8 applies.
7. Your right to use Tapebook
- While your subscription is paid, you have a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable right to use Tapebook for your own trading records.
- You may not resell or share Tapebook or your account, or try to get around its sign-in or subscription checks.
- Tapebook stays ours. Your journal is yours.
8. When your subscription ends
- Your account switches to read-only: you can sign in, open everything and download your journal (section 9), but you can't save new entries.
- We keep your journal for 90 days after your subscription ends, and we e-mail you before we delete it. If you subscribe again in that time, you carry on where you left off.
- After 90 days we delete your journal and your account, as in section 10.
9. Your journal and your data
- Where it is kept. The database and files are stored in data centres in the European Union. Our Privacy Policy (tapebook.dojiwave.com/privacy/) says who processes data for us and how.
- We don't look through your journal or your screenshots. Technical access to what is in an account is possible only when you ask us for help, and we keep a record of it. We don't analyse the contents of journals and don't make statistics from them.
- Backups. We back up every journal daily and keep each backup for 30 days. You can restore your journal yourself to any day from the last 30. We don't restore older states or single entries.
- Your own copy. You can download your whole journal at any time, in read-only mode too: your journal as a JSON file, your trades as CSV and your screenshots, in parts. We recommend keeping a copy of your own.
- Screenshots. Each account can hold up to 2 GB of screenshots. When you reach the limit, you can't add new ones until you remove some. Tapebook warns you when you have used 80% of it.
- What not to enter. Don't put information about your health, or other people's personal data, in your notes. We never ask for the passwords to your trading accounts, and you should never enter them in Tapebook.
10. Deleting your account
- You can delete your account at any time in Settings > Account and plan ("Delete account"). We then delete your journal, screenshots and sign-in data from our systems straight away, and from our backups within 30 days.
- Deleting your account also cancels your subscription, so you aren't charged again. If you only want to stop paying and keep your access until the end of the period you paid for, cancel instead (section 6). If your access ends before the end of the period you paid for, write to us and we'll ask Paddle to refund the unused part.
- After deletion we keep only a short record: your e-mail address, the dates your account was created and deleted, the versions of these terms and the Privacy Policy you accepted, and your subscription periods. Our Privacy Policy says why and for how long.
11. Availability
We work to keep Tapebook running at all times, but we don't promise it will never be interrupted. We may pause it for maintenance, updates or security reasons, and we keep planned breaks short. New versions of Tapebook reach you automatically.
12. Access from an offer
If you got your access through an offer on dojiwave.com rather than by paying, the offer's own terms say who can get it and for how long. Everything else in these terms applies to it too. When it runs out, section 8 applies, and you can subscribe to keep saving.
13. What you must not do, and what we do about it
When you use Tapebook and our pages, don't:
- store or send anything unlawful, or anyone else's personal data;
- try to break, overload or get around the protection of Tapebook or our pages, or get access you're not entitled to;
- use Tapebook or our pages in a way that breaks the law or harms others.
Nothing you keep in Tapebook is published or shown to other users. If we learn that an account holds unlawful content or is used against these terms, we may remove that content or suspend the account. We'll tell you by e-mail, as described below, unless the law prevents us. We don't monitor what is in journals and don't use automated tools to check it; a person makes every such decision.
Contact point. [email protected] is our single point of contact under the EU Digital Services Act, for users and for authorities of EU countries, the European Commission and the European Board for Digital Services. You can write to us in English or Polish. A person reads and answers every message; you never have to go through the AI assistant.
Reporting unlawful content. Anyone can report content stored in Tapebook that they believe is unlawful, by e-mail to [email protected] with the subject "Report". Tell us what the content is and where it is (for example the e-mail address of the account and the date of the entry, or a description), why you think it is unlawful, your name and e-mail address, and confirm that you believe in good faith that your report is accurate and complete. If your report concerns child sexual abuse material, you don't have to give your name. We confirm that we've received your report, decide on it promptly, carefully and objectively, and tell you our decision and how you can challenge it. A person makes every decision; we don't use automated tools to assess reports.
Our decisions about content and accounts. If we remove content, or suspend or end your access or your account, because content is unlawful or breaks these terms, we tell you by e-mail no later than when we do it: what we did and for how long, the facts, whether we acted on a report or on our own check, the law or the section of these terms we rely on, and how you can challenge the decision. You can challenge it, or our decision on your report, by replying to our e-mail within 6 months. We look at the case again and reply within 14 days. You can also use out-of-court dispute resolution (section 15) or go to court, and you can complain about us to the digital services coordinator in your country (in Poland, the President of the Office of Electronic Communications, UKE).
Orders from authorities. If a court or authority orders us to act against specific content or to give information about a specific user, we do what the order lawfully requires and tell the user about the order, what we did, the reasons and how to appeal, at the latest when we act, unless the order or the law requires us to wait.
Threats to life or safety. If we learn of anything suggesting a criminal offence that threatens someone's life or safety, we inform the police or prosecutor at once and give them the information we have, as the law requires.
14. Starting and ending
- Our pages: you start using them when you open them and stop when you leave. You can leave the waiting list at any time with the link in any of our e-mails.
- Tapebook: our contract with you starts when you create your account and accept these terms. If you don't subscribe within 14 days, we delete the account. The contract ends when you delete your account, or when we delete it under section 8. You can stop using Tapebook at any time and cancel your subscription as in section 6.
- We may suspend or end your access if you seriously break sections 7 or 13. If the breach can be put right, we first ask you to stop and give you 14 days. We suspend access at once only for a serious security risk or unlawful content. We'll tell you why by e-mail, as described in section 13, unless the law prevents us. You can still download your journal for 30 days after that, unless the law prevents it. If your access ends before the end of the period you paid for, write to us and we'll ask Paddle to refund the unused part.
15. Complaints
If Tapebook or one of our pages doesn't work as it should, write to [email protected]. Tell us what's wrong, when it happened and the e-mail address of your account. We'll reply within 14 days.
If Tapebook doesn't conform to our contract, you have the rights consumer law gives you: we bring it into conformity, and if we can't or don't within a reasonable time, you can ask for a proportionate price reduction or end the contract and get a refund through Paddle. Our Refund Policy says how this works with Paddle.
If you are a consumer and we can't settle a complaint, you can also ask for help out of court, for example from your local consumer ombudsman or, in Poland, the Trade Inspection (Inspekcja Handlowa). Polish bodies are listed at polubownie.uokik.gov.pl; for other EU countries, see the European Commission's list of consumer dispute resolution bodies.
16. Support and changes to Tapebook
Support by e-mail at [email protected]. We aim to answer within 2 working days.
Help in the app and the assistant window on our website use an AI assistant. Its answers are generated automatically and may be incomplete or wrong, and they aren't investment advice. They don't change these Terms or the price list: if an answer differs from them, these Terms and the price list apply. We provide both assistants under the Tapebook and Dojiwave names; they run on an AI model supplied by Anthropic. If an answer is wrong or you have a complaint about the assistant, write to [email protected] and a person will deal with it.
We may change Tapebook for technical, legal or security reasons, to keep it compatible with browsers and systems, or to develop the product. Changes cost you nothing, and we tell you clearly about each one, in the app or by e-mail. We won't take away its core purpose - keeping and reviewing your trading journal - during a period you've paid for. If a change would significantly reduce your access to Tapebook or what you can do with it, we'll tell you by e-mail at least 30 days before it, explaining what changes and when. You can then end your subscription without charge within 30 days of our message or of the change, whichever is later, and we'll ask Paddle to refund the unused part of your current period.
17. Liability
Tapebook is a journal and analysis tool. It does not provide investment advice or guarantee trading results. We are not responsible for losses resulting solely from your trading decisions. Nothing in these terms excludes or limits liability that cannot be excluded under applicable law or affects your statutory consumer rights.
We look after your journal with due care and back it up daily; we still recommend keeping a copy of your own. If you use Tapebook in the course of a business, our total liability to you is limited to the amount you paid for Tapebook in the 12 months before the event, except for damage we cause intentionally. This limit does not apply to consumers, or to sole traders whom the law protects in the same way as consumers.
18. Changes to these terms and law
We may update these terms for the reasons in section 16, or when the law or the way we sell Tapebook changes. A change to these terms never raises the price of your subscription while it renews without a break (see section 6). For an active subscription, we'll tell you by e-mail at least 30 days before a change applies, and it applies from your next renewal. Until the end of the period you've paid for, you keep using Tapebook on the current terms. We'll ask you in the app to accept the new terms before your next renewal; until then you can keep using Tapebook as usual. If you haven't accepted them 7 days before the renewal, your subscription won't renew, and section 8 applies when the period ends. These terms are governed by Polish law. If you're a consumer, you also keep the protection of the mandatory laws of your country of residence and can bring a claim in its courts.
If you are a consumer habitually resident in Poland, the Polish version of these terms prevails. In all other cases the English version prevails. This does not limit the rights you have as a consumer under mandatory law.
Tapebook and its sale are for adults. These terms are also available in Polish.
