Health disclaimer
Softly Sleep is a wellness tool, not a medical device. The App is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any medical condition including sleep disorders. Features such as heart rate tuning and sleep phase estimation are for informational and entertainment purposes only.
If you have a sleep disorder or medical condition, consult a healthcare professional. Do not rely on the App as a substitute for medical advice.
HealthKit integration
If you choose to grant HealthKit access, the App reads resting heart rate data solely to personalize music tempo. This data remains on your device. We do not store, transmit, or monetize any health data. You can revoke HealthKit access at any time in your device's Settings.
Availability
We aim to keep the App available at all times, but we do not guarantee uninterrupted service. We may modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of the App at any time without notice. The offline playback feature is provided so you can use the App independently of network availability.
Intellectual property
The App, including its design, code, visual elements, and branding, is owned by us and protected by intellectual property laws. "Softly Sleep", the App icon, and associated trademarks are our property.
Pricing
Softly Sleep is currently free to use. We reserve the right to introduce paid features or subscriptions in the future. Any paid features will be clearly communicated before purchase, and existing free functionality will not be retroactively paywalled.
Termination
We may suspend or terminate your access to the App if you violate these terms. You may stop using the App at any time by deleting it from your device. Upon termination, your right to use the App ceases immediately.
Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of the App. Our total liability for any claim related to the App shall not exceed the amount you paid for the App (which is currently zero).
Changes to these terms
We may update these terms from time to time. If we make material changes, we will notify you through the App. Your continued use after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of Australia. Any disputes arising from these terms or your use of the App shall be resolved in the courts of Australia.
