1. Acceptance of terms
These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of the mobile application Panic Attack Relief Airu (the “App”), operated by Calming Aura Studios LLC (“we,” “us,” or “our”).
By downloading, accessing, or using the App, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the App.
You represent that you are at least 13 years old and have the legal capacity to enter into these Terms (or that a parent or guardian agrees on your behalf where required).
2. Description of service
The App provides guided breathing exercises and related tools intended to help users manage moments of anxiety and panic, including:
- Emergency Mode (including lock-screen / home-screen widget entry points where available);
- Breathing techniques and anxiety-type guidance;
- Scenario-based sessions;
- Optional progress, streak, and mood features;
- Optional account creation to sync and save progress.
Emergency Mode and Coherent Breathing are designed to remain available without a paid subscription, as described in the App. Other techniques, scenarios, progress features, and related depth may require a subscription.
Features may vary by platform, subscription status, and product roadmap. The App is provided “as is” and “as available.” We may modify, suspend, or discontinue features or the entire service at any time, with or without notice, subject to applicable law and any obligations we have toward paid subscribers.
3. Eligibility and account
- You must provide accurate information and keep your account credentials secure. You are responsible for activity under your account.
- You may use limited features as a guest; creating an account enables sync and restoration of progress where supported.
- You may not share your account in a way that violates these Terms, store rules, or compromises security (except where a platform’s Family Sharing features expressly allow sharing of a subscription under that platform’s terms).
- We may refuse service or close accounts that violate these Terms or create risk for other users or the service.
4. User obligations and acceptable use
You agree that you will not:
- Use the App for any unlawful purpose or in violation of applicable law.
- Harass, abuse, or harm others, or attempt to access data you are not authorized to view.
- Reverse engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract source code from the App, except to the extent applicable law permits you to do so despite this agreement.
- Interfere with or disrupt the App, servers, or networks.
- Circumvent subscription limits, paywalls, security controls, or access restrictions (including abusing restore flows or sharing accounts to evade payment outside platform Family Sharing rules).
- Misrepresent subscription status or attempt to reuse store transactions across unrelated accounts in violation of our technical and security controls.
- Upload malware or content you do not have the right to use.
We may suspend or terminate your access for conduct we believe violates these Terms or harms the service or others.
5. Intellectual property and license
The App, including its design, branding, copy, animations, and software, is owned by Calming Aura Studios LLC or its licensors and is protected by intellectual property laws.
We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the App for your personal, non-commercial use, subject to these Terms.
Your content: You retain ownership of information you submit (for example, optional mood ratings and profile selections). To operate the App, you grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, store, process, and display that content solely to provide the service to you.
6. Payments, subscriptions, and refunds
- Paid access is offered via in-app purchase through the Apple App Store and/or Google Play, including subscription options such as monthly plans and annual pay-what-you-can tiers as shown in the App and store listings.
- Billing, payment processing, and renewal are handled by Apple or Google under their terms. We do not store your full payment card details.
- Subscriptions may auto-renew until you cancel through your Apple ID or Google Play account settings (or other cancellation paths those platforms provide).
- Family Sharing: Where Apple enables Family Sharing for a subscription product, sharing follows Apple’s rules. Google Play subscriptions generally cannot be shared the same way; see Google’s terms for your purchase.
- Refunds: In-app purchases are billed by Apple or Google. We do not process or issue refunds for those charges; requests must go through the App Store or Google Play refund and support flows. Whether a refund is granted follows each store’s policies and applicable law.
- We may change subscription prices or features with reasonable notice where required by platform rules and law.
7. Termination
By you: You may stop using the App at any time. You may delete your account where the App provides that option, or by contacting us.
By us: We may suspend or terminate your access if you breach these Terms, if we must comply with law, or if we discontinue the service.
Upon termination, your right to use the App ends. Data handling after closure is described in our Privacy Policy. Certain information may be retained as required by law or as stated there.
8. Disclaimers
THE APP IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE,” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.
Not medical advice: The App is a wellness and self-help breathing tool. It is not a medical device, not psychotherapy or clinical treatment, and does not provide medical, psychiatric, or crisis counseling. It does not replace care from qualified professionals. Always seek professional help for mental health concerns. If you are in crisis or think you may harm yourself or others, contact emergency services or a crisis hotline immediately — do not rely on the App.
We do not warrant that the App will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of harmful components, or that breathing exercises will produce any particular health outcome.
9. Limitation of liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW:
- CALMING AURA STUDIOS LLC AND ITS AFFILIATES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AND AGENTS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF DATA, PROFITS, GOODWILL, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THE APP.
- OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE APP OR THESE TERMS IS LIMITED TO THE AMOUNTS YOU PAID US FOR THE APP IN THE SIX (6) MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM (OR, IF YOU HAVE NOT PAID, TO ZERO / THE MINIMUM PERMITTED BY LAW).
Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations; in those cases, our liability is limited to the fullest extent permitted by law.
10. Indemnification
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Calming Aura Studios LLC and its affiliates from any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of: (a) your use of the App; (b) your content; (c) your violation of these Terms or of others’ rights; or (d) your violation of applicable law.
11. Disputes and governing law
Governing law: These Terms are governed by the laws of the United States and the State of North Carolina, without regard to conflict-of-law rules, except where mandatory consumer protection laws of your jurisdiction apply.
Informal resolution: Before filing a claim, you agree to contact us at support@calmingaura.net to try to resolve the dispute.
Courts: If informal resolution fails, disputes will be resolved in the state or federal courts located in North Carolina, and you consent to personal jurisdiction there, unless applicable law in your country gives you the right to bring claims in your local courts (for example, certain consumer protections in the EU/UK).
Class action waiver: To the extent permitted by law, disputes must be brought only in an individual capacity, not as a plaintiff or class member in any class or representative proceeding.
If you are a consumer in the EEA/UK, nothing in this section limits your mandatory statutory rights.
12. Changes to terms
We may modify these Terms. We will update the “Last updated” date and may provide additional notice for material changes (for example, in-app). Continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance. If you do not agree, stop using the App.
