Acceptance of These Terms.
1.1. These Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of the Meditation App, websites, content, features, and services provided by Flame Apps (collectively, the “Services”). By creating an account, installing, accessing, or using the Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms.

1.3. Privacy and Data Protection. Protecting and safeguarding any personal information you provide when using the Services is extremely important to us. Details of how we collect, use, and protect your personal data are described in our Privacy Policy (the “Privacy Policy”), which forms part of these Terms. By using the Services, you acknowledge that your use of the Services is also subject to our Privacy Policy. Depending on your use of the Services and on your country of residence, some of the information we process (for example information about your mental well-being, mood, sleep, or stress) may be considered “health data” or “special categories” of personal data under the EU General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) or other applicable data-protection law. We handle such data in accordance with our Privacy Policy and applicable mandatory law. You are responsible for ensuring that your device, operating system, and internet connection are compatible with the Services and for any charges imposed by your internet or mobile provider. We may provide certain notices (including changes to these Terms) electronically as described in Section 21.4.
Intended Use (Wellness Only) and Prohibited Uses.
2.1. Intended Use (Wellness Only). The Services are provided solely as general wellness tools for relaxation, meditation, stress management, and mindfulness education (“Intended Use”). They are not designed or intended to diagnose, prevent, monitor, predict, treat, or cure any disease or medical condition; to provide professional, clinical, or therapeutic advice of any kind; or to serve as an emergency or crisis service.
2.2. Exclusive Use; Catch-All Limitation. The Services may only be used for the Intended Use described in Section 2.1. Any other purpose, context, environment, or activity is outside the Intended Use and is not permitted, whether or not it is specifically mentioned or foreseen in these Terms.
2.3. Safety-Critical Activities. For safety reasons, the Services must not be used in any situation where distraction, closing your eyes, reduced awareness, or wearing headphones could increase the risk of harm (“Safety-Critical Activities”). Safety-Critical Activities include, without limitation, driving or operating any vehicle (including cars, bicycles, e-bikes, scooters, motorcycles, or construction or agricultural machinery), operating machinery or tools, cooking, working at heights, being in or near water, supervising children, or any other activity that requires your full attention for safety. Using the Services during any Safety-Critical Activity is always outside the Intended Use and is strictly prohibited, regardless of whether the specific activity is named in these Terms.
2.4. Prohibited Uses (examples; non-exhaustive). Without limiting Sections 2.1–2.3, and by way of example only, you must not, and must not allow anyone else to:
(a) copy, record, capture, or otherwise reproduce audio, text, or other content from the Services, except as strictly necessary for your own personal, non-commercial use and as permitted by applicable law.
(b) use the Services, any content, or any AI-generated outputs to develop, train, or improve a competing product or service, any machine-learning model, or any large language model, or to benchmark or systematically evaluate the Services, unless we have given you prior written consent.
(c) rent, lease, sell, sublicense, transfer, or otherwise commercially exploit the Services, your account, or any access rights to the Services.
(d) use automated tools (including bots, scrapers, crawlers, or similar technologies) to access, query, or interact with the Services, or to extract, collect, or analyze data or content from the Services.
(e) attempt to circumvent or interfere with technical measures that protect the Services or limit access or usage (including security controls, rate limits, or geographic restrictions).
(f) upload, introduce, or distribute malware, viruses, or any code intended to interfere with or damage the Services, other software, or devices.
(g) misrepresent your identity or affiliation, impersonate another person or organization, or falsely imply any association with us.
(h) use any interactive features to harass, bully, stalk, threaten, or otherwise abuse any person, or to engage in hate speech or discriminatory behavior.
(i) use the Services where doing so would violate applicable law in your jurisdiction.
(j) attempt, or assist any third party, to do any of the above.
2.5. Compliance with Local Laws. You are responsible for ensuring that your use of the Services complies with all laws and regulations that apply to you in your country or region.
Not Medical Advice; Not a Crisis Service.
3.1. The Services (including AI-generated or human-written scripts, audio, text, tips, assessments, and any outputs) are for general wellness only and may be incomplete, inaccurate, or not suited to your situation. They do not constitute medical, psychological, psychotherapeutic, legal, or other professional advice.
3.2. Do not rely on the Services for health decisions. If you have or suspect you have a medical or mental-health condition, are pregnant, have a history of fainting, seizures, psychosis, bipolar mania, severe depression, PTSD with acute symptoms, disordered breathing, cardiovascular concerns, or any condition that could be affected by relaxation or breath practices, consult a qualified professional before use.
3.3. If you experience distress, dizziness, pain, shortness of breath, panic, suicidal thoughts, or other adverse symptoms, stop immediately and seek professional help.
3.4. The Services are not an emergency or crisis resource. In an emergency or crisis, call your local emergency number immediately (for example, 112 or 911, as applicable) or use local crisis services.
3.5. Assumption of Risk. Subject to Sections 13 and 14 and to the extent permitted by applicable law, you understand and agree that you are solely responsible for deciding whether and how to use the Services. Meditation, breathing exercises, and relaxation practices can feel uncomfortable and may not be appropriate for everyone. By using the Services, you voluntarily assume all risks associated with their use, including any physical or mental effects they may have on you.
3.6. Possible Worsening of Symptoms. In some cases, contemplative or breathing practices can increase distress or bring up difficult emotions, especially for people with existing mental-health conditions. If you notice that your symptoms worsen or you feel overwhelmed, stop using the Services and seek advice from a qualified professional.
AI Features and Output Limitations.
4.1. The Services may use machine learning and generative AI to produce or adapt meditation scripts, suggestions, or other content. AI outputs can be wrong, incomplete, outdated, or inappropriate for your circumstances.
4.2. You are solely responsible for how you use AI outputs. Do not use them as a substitute for professional advice or judgment.
4.3. You must not prompt or instruct the Services to produce unsafe, illegal, or infringing content. We may moderate, filter, block, or remove content or access that violates these Terms.
4.4. Intellectual Property in AI Outputs. AI-generated outputs may be similar to or derived from patterns in training data and may inadvertently resemble content created by others. We do not promise that any AI output will be unique or free from third-party rights. You are responsible for ensuring that your use of any AI output complies with applicable intellectual-property and other laws.
4.5. No Human Review by Default. AI outputs are generally generated and delivered without human review or monitoring. You must not treat any AI output as if it were personalized professional advice or as if it had been checked by a clinician or other professional.
Eligibility and Accounts.
5.1. Age. The Services are intended for individuals aged 16 and older. If your local law requires a higher minimum age or parental/guardian consent to use online services, you must comply. Do not use the Services if you are under the minimum age in your country. We do not target children.
5.2. Account Information. You must provide accurate information and keep it updated. You are responsible for all activities under your account and for maintaining confidentiality of your login credentials. Notify us immediately if you suspect unauthorized use.
5.3. Organizational Use. If you use the Services on behalf of a company, employer, school, or other organization, you represent and warrant that you have authority to bind that organization to these Terms. In that case, “you” also means that organization, and Section 15 applies.
5.4. Account Security. You must keep your login credentials confidential and not share your account with anyone else. We may assume that any activity in your account is authorized by you until you notify us of suspected misuse. We are not responsible for loss or damage arising from your failure to keep your account secure.
Health and Safety Warnings.
6.1. Use the Services only when it is safe to relax and, where relevant, close your eyes. Ensure safe posture and environment. If you have been advised by a healthcare professional not to perform relaxation or breath exercises, do not use the Services.
6.2. The Services may include soundscapes or instructions that can alter your attention; use appropriate volume and surroundings.
6.3. Volume, Environment, and Devices. Use a moderate volume to avoid hearing damage and keep awareness of your surroundings, especially when using headphones. Do not rely on the Services to alert you to hazards in your environment. We are not responsible for accidents, injuries, or property damage that occur because you were distracted or unable to hear warnings while using the Services, except where such liability cannot be limited under applicable law.
6.4. Common-Sense Responsibility. The Services do not replace your own judgment, common sense, or basic safety precautions. You remain fully responsible for your actions, your physical surroundings, and for complying with product safety warnings, traffic rules, workplace safety rules, and other applicable instructions and laws. If any instruction or suggestion in the Services appears to conflict with common sense or with safety information for your environment or equipment, you must ignore the Services and follow the safety information instead.

7.7. App Store Billing. All purchases, renewals, refunds, and billing-related notifications for subscriptions purchased through Google Play are handled by Google Play under its own terms and policies.

Your Content.

To the extent permitted by law, we are not responsible for user content submitted by you or others.
9.4. Your Warranties. You represent and warrant that you have all rights necessary to submit your content to the Services and to grant the license in Section 9.1, and that your content will not be unlawful, defamatory, harassing, hateful, obscene, or otherwise infringing or harmful.

We are not responsible for third-party services and do not control how they process your data.
10.4. App Store Rules. If you obtained the App from an app store or platform (such as Google Play), the store or platform may impose additional terms. In the event of a conflict between these Terms and the app-store terms that relate to billing or distribution, the app-store terms will govern to the extent required by that store.
Moderation; Suspension and Termination.
11.1. We may suspend or terminate access, remove content, or take any reasonable action if we believe you violated these Terms, the Intended Use, or the law, or if needed to protect users, our Services, or third parties.

11.3. Safety Concerns. We do not monitor the Services for emergency situations and are under no obligation to do so.
