These Terms of Use ("Terms") are a legally binding agreement between you ("you", "your") and the developer of Floofy ("we", "us", "our"), governing your access to and use of the Floofy iOS application and any associated services (collectively, the "Service"). Please read them carefully. By downloading, installing, or using Floofy you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

This agreement also serves as the End User License Agreement (EULA) required by Apple for apps distributed through the App Store. It supplements, and does not replace, Apple's own Licensed Application End User License Agreement ("Apple Standard EULA"). To the extent of any conflict, the more user-protective term applies.

1. The Service in plain terms

Floofy is a journaling app for owners of cats with chronic conditions (CKD, HCM, Senior monitoring, Diabetes, Pancreatitis, IBD). It lets you log daily health observations, browse a curated cat-food nutrition database, see disease-specific trend dashboards, and export bilingual reports for your veterinarian.

Floofy is informational only. It is not a medical device. It does not diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any condition. The food-suitability ratings are decision-support hints based on published clinical thresholds; they are not prescriptions. Always consult a licensed veterinarian before changing your cat's diet, medication, or care plan.

2. Who can use Floofy

You must be at least 13 years old (or the minimum digital-consent age in your country, whichever is higher — for example, 16 in some EU member states) to use Floofy. By using the Service you represent that you meet that requirement. If you are using Floofy on behalf of an organization (e.g., a multi-member household, a foster), you represent that you are authorised to bind it to these Terms.

The Service is offered to individual cat caregivers. Floofy is not intended for veterinary practices, breeders running clinical studies, or any commercial use; please contact us if you have such a need.

3. Your account

Floofy is guest-by-default. You can use the full app without an account. If you choose to sign in to enable multi-device backup, you do so with Sign in with Apple. By signing in you authorise us to receive the Apple identifier and (optionally Apple-relayed) email associated with your Apple ID, and to store records you create in our cloud backend.

You are responsible for:

We may suspend or terminate your account if you breach these Terms or use the Service in a way that puts other users, our providers, or the Service itself at risk. We will tell you why, except where we are legally prohibited from doing so.

4. Apple's terms govern app distribution

This EULA is between you and us; Apple is not a party. However, Apple's Licensed Application End User License Agreement applies in the background:

You also represent and warrant that (a) you are not located in a country that is subject to a U.S. Government embargo or that has been designated as a "terrorist supporting" country, and (b) you are not listed on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.

5. Licence to use Floofy

Subject to your compliance with these Terms, we grant you a personal, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable, limited licence to install and use Floofy on Apple-branded devices that you own or control, for your personal, non-commercial use, as permitted by the Apple Standard EULA. The licence is granted, not sold. We and our licensors retain all right, title, and interest in the Service.

You will not, and will not allow anyone else to:

6. Your content

You retain ownership of the data you create in Floofy — pet profiles, log entries, photos, lab values, notes, etc. ("Your Content"). By using Floofy, you grant us a worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive licence to host, store, copy, transmit, and process Your Content solely as necessary to provide the Service to you (e.g., to display it back to you, sync it across your devices, run the Auto-Recognize Lab Values feature when you trigger it, and generate vet reports you ask for). This licence ends when you delete the content or your account, subject to the deletion timelines in our Privacy Policy.

You are solely responsible for Your Content. You confirm that you have the right to provide it (for example, that you took the photos yourself, or have permission from the photographer and any human individuals visible). Do not upload content that contains personally identifiable information about other people without their consent.

We do not screen, edit, or pre-review Your Content. We do not use it to train AI models.

7. Free vs. paid features (Floofy Pro)

Floofy is freemium. The free tier permanently includes:

Floofy Pro is an auto-renewable subscription that unlocks:

7.1 Subscription terms

7.2 What happens if a subscription lapses

If your subscription expires (cancellation, payment failure after Apple's grace period, refund, family-sharing change), free tier returns automatically:

7.3 Family Sharing

Floofy Pro participates in Apple's Family Sharing. If the purchaser enables it, family members can use Pro features on their own Apple ID without an additional purchase.

8. Privacy

Our Privacy Policy (also bundled in this repository as Legal/PRIVACY.md) describes what we collect, how we use it, who we share it with, retention timelines, and your rights. It is incorporated into these Terms by reference. If you do not agree with the Privacy Policy, do not use the Service.

9. Veterinary disclaimer

Floofy is not a veterinary medical device, decision-support system within the meaning of FDA/EMA/NMPA medical-device regulations, or a replacement for a veterinarian. Outputs of the app are informational:

You are responsible for any clinical decision you make. Always consult a licensed veterinarian before changing your cat's diet, medication, monitoring schedule, or care plan.

10. Service availability

We will use reasonable efforts to keep the Service available, but we do not promise it will be uninterrupted, error-free, or secure. The Service depends on third-party providers (Apple, Supabase, Cloudflare, Google, PostHog) whose availability is outside our control.

We may add, modify, or remove features at any time. We will not remove a feature you have paid for during an active billing period without giving you reasonable notice. If we make a material change that materially reduces functionality you paid for, we will offer a pro-rated refund through Apple's standard refund flow where applicable.

We may suspend the Service for maintenance and security work; we will try to schedule such work in off-peak hours.

11. Warranties and disclaimers

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law:

12. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law:

You acknowledge that veterinary outcomes depend on many factors outside the Service's control, and that no software product can substitute for a licensed veterinarian's judgment.

13. Indemnity

To the extent permitted by law, you will defend, indemnify, and hold us harmless from any claim, demand, loss, or damage (including reasonable lawyer fees) arising out of (a) your use of the Service in violation of these Terms, (b) Your Content, (c) your violation of any law or third-party right, including a veterinarian's or another person's intellectual property or privacy rights.

14. Termination

You may stop using the Service at any time. You can sign out, delete your account, or simply uninstall the app.

We may suspend or terminate your access if you materially breach these Terms, if required by law, or if continuing to provide the Service to you exposes us, our providers, or other users to legal or technical risk. If we terminate you for cause, we will tell you why where lawful.

Sections that by their nature should survive (warranty disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnity, governing law, miscellaneous) will survive termination.

15. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms when the Service evolves or when the law requires it. Material changes will be announced in the app at least 14 days before they take effect. The "Last updated" date at the top is the source of truth for the current version. Continuing to use the Service after the effective date is your acceptance of the new Terms.

16. Governing law and disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules, except where mandatory consumer-protection laws of your country of residence provide more protection — in which case those laws apply.

You and we agree to try in good faith to resolve any dispute informally before filing a formal claim. If informal resolution fails, the dispute will be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in San Francisco County, California, and you and we consent to personal jurisdiction there. Class actions and class arbitration are not permitted, except where prohibited by your local law.

If you reside in the European Union, the United Kingdom, Switzerland, or another jurisdiction whose mandatory rules require a different governing law or forum, you retain the protection of those rules and may bring proceedings in the courts of your country of residence.

This section does not apply to disputes between you and Apple (those follow the Apple Media Services Terms) or between you and your veterinarian.
