These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of the Inner Gate mobile application and related services (the “App”). By creating an account, accessing, or using the App, you agree to these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the App.

You must be at least 16 years old to use the App. If you are under 18, you represent that you have the permission required under applicable law to use the App.

3. Account, Security, and Email

• You may need an account to access some features.

• You are responsible for safeguarding your login credentials and all activity under your account.
• We may send you transactional emails (e.g., verification, data export, account deletion notices).

4. Your Content and Community Features

The App may let you create and store personal content (e.g., diary/journal entries, practice records) and participate in community features (e.g., chat messages, file attachments). You retain ownership of your content.

You grant us a limited, non-exclusive license to host, store, process, and display your content solely to operate and improve the App, to provide requested functionality (including data export), to enforce these Terms, and to comply with law.

5. Acceptable Use

You agree not to misuse the App. This includes (without limitation):

• Violating laws or infringing intellectual property
• Harassment, hate, threats, doxxing, or sharing personal information without consent
• Uploading malicious files/links or attempting to compromise security
• Spamming or automated scraping

We may remove content, restrict features, or suspend/terminate accounts for violations.

6. Paid Features, Subscriptions, and Billing

Inner Gate offers free and paid features. Paid features are sold exclusively as in‑app purchases through the app store you use, as described below.

Subscriptions on iOS and Android. When you subscribe inside the mobile app, the subscription is an Apple App Store or Google Play in‑app purchase. Billing, renewal, cancellation, and refunds are handled by the app store under its terms and policies. Subscriptions renew automatically until cancelled; you can manage or cancel them, and disable auto‑renewal, in your Apple or Google account settings.

7. AI Features Disclaimer

Some features may use third‑party AI services to generate responses based on your inputs (for example, OpenAI via LangChain). AI outputs are provided for informational and personal exploration purposes only and are not medical, psychological, legal, or professional advice. You are responsible for how you use AI outputs.

Some AI features and Ukrainian‑language translations are produced using third‑party AI models, including Google’s Gemma. AI‑generated and AI‑translated content is provided “as is”, may contain inaccuracies, and is subject to the Gemma Prohibited Use Policy. By using these features you agree not to use them in any manner prohibited by that policy.

8. Health, Wellness & Educational Disclaimer

The App’s lessons, practices, challenges, and other content are provided for educational and personal spiritual‑exploration purposes only. They are not medical, psychological, psychiatric, or other professional advice, and the App is not a substitute for professional care, diagnosis, or treatment.

Some practices described in the App — including but not limited to fasting, breathwork and breath retention (pranayama), energetic locks (bandhas), intensive or prolonged meditation, and sleep‑ or consciousness‑modifying techniques — carry real physical and psychological risks. Before beginning any such practice you should consult a qualified professional, especially if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, take medication, or have any medical or mental‑health condition. You must read and follow the contraindications and safety guidance provided within the relevant lessons, and stop any practice immediately if you feel unwell. You undertake all practices voluntarily and at your own risk. If you are experiencing a medical or mental‑health emergency, contact your local emergency or crisis services immediately.

9. Intellectual Property

The App (excluding your content), including its design, trademarks, text, and software, is owned by us or our licensors and protected by applicable intellectual property laws.

10. Termination

You may stop using the App at any time. You may also delete your account within the App. We may suspend or terminate access if you violate these Terms, if required by law, or for operational/security reasons.

11. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. If changes are material, we will provide notice in the App and/or by email. Continued use after an update means you accept the updated Terms.

12. Disclaimers

The App is provided “as is” and “as available”. To the maximum extent permitted by law, we disclaim warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non‑infringement. We do not guarantee uninterrupted or error‑free operation.

Nothing in this section removes or limits any statutory warranty, guarantee, or right that cannot be excluded or limited under the law applicable to you. If you are a consumer, your mandatory statutory rights are unaffected by these Terms.

13. Limitation of Liability

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits our liability where it would be unlawful to do so — including liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or for gross negligence or wilful misconduct. Nothing here affects your mandatory rights as a consumer.

Subject to the paragraph above, and to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of profits or data, arising from your use of the App.

14. Governing Law and Jurisdiction

These Terms are governed by the laws of Ukraine, without regard to conflict‑of‑laws rules, and the courts of Ukraine shall have jurisdiction over disputes arising from them.

If you are a consumer, this does not deprive you of the protection of the mandatory consumer‑protection laws of your country of residence, and you may also bring proceedings before the competent courts of your place of residence. Nothing in this section overrides mandatory rules that apply to you.
