Legal terms
Terms of use
Terms for using Kind to Me.
1. Agreement and scope
These terms apply to Kind to Me and any related in-app content and services. The person using the app is referred to as “you.” If you do not agree to these terms, do not use the app.
Apple's standard end-user licence terms or Google Play's applicable terms may also apply. Where mandatory consumer law gives you rights that cannot be waived, those rights are not limited by this document.
2. Limited licence
Subject to these terms and the applicable app-store rules, JPott Studios grants you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to install and use Kind to Me for personal, non-commercial purposes. The app, its affirmation text, artwork, code, and branding remain owned by JPott Studios or its licensors.
You may not resell, redistribute, scrape in bulk, reverse engineer except where law expressly permits, remove rights notices, interfere with security controls, or use the app to violate law or another person's rights.
3. Your content and local storage
You keep any rights you have in content you create, including the affirmations you write and the recordings you make in your own voice. You give JPott Studios only the limited permission needed to process content through a feature you deliberately use, such as encrypting and transmitting a sync record.
Your affirmations, recordings, and practice data are stored locally. You are responsible for your device's access controls and for keeping any exports or backups you create. Local data, encryption keys, or exported files may be unrecoverable after deletion, device loss, key loss, or an unsuccessful restore.
4. General wellness, not medical advice
Kind to Me is a general wellness and encouragement tool. It is not a medical device and does not provide medical, psychological, diagnostic, or therapeutic services. Affirmations are not a substitute for professional mental-health care or crisis support. Nothing in the app is a substitute for professional advice. Seek qualified help when appropriate, and contact your local emergency services if you are in danger or need urgent help.
5. Purchases, renewal, and restoration
Kind to Me Premium is offered three ways: a monthly subscription, a yearly subscription, and a one-time unlock. All three give access to the same Premium features. The product, current price, any introductory offer, and eligibility shown by Apple or Google at checkout control the transaction.
- Subscriptions renew automatically. A monthly or yearly plan renews for the same period, at the price the store shows, until you cancel. Your store account is charged when the renewal is confirmed under the store's own timing rules.
- Cancelling is done in the app store, not in the app. Use Apple's or Google's subscription settings on your device. Cancelling stops future renewals; it does not by itself refund the period you already paid for, and access normally continues to the end of that period.
- A free trial, where the store offers one,: converts into a paid subscription unless you cancel before it ends, under the store's rules. The yearly plan is offered with a 7-day free trial.
- The one-time unlock does not renew. It means continued access to the purchased entitlement for as long as JPott Studios makes the app and that entitlement available. It is not a promise that any app or platform will exist forever, and there is nothing to cancel.
- Use the in-app restore function with the same store account to restore an eligible purchase. Restoration can depend on the app store and purchase configuration.
- Apple or Google handles billing, cancellation, and refund decisions under its own policies. Deleting the app does not cancel a subscription and does not itself request a refund.
6. Availability and changes
Features may differ by device, platform, region, app version, permission choices, purchase status, and service configuration. Optional sync, widgets, read-aloud voices, and notifications may be unavailable or interrupted. JPott Studios may update, replace, suspend, or discontinue features or content, subject to applicable law and store obligations.
Kind to Me should not be relied on as the sole record of essential, medical, legal, financial, or safety-critical information.
7. Acceptable use
You must not attempt to access another person's account or encrypted records, bypass purchase or content protections, upload malicious material, abuse service infrastructure, or use the app in a way that infringes rights or harms others. JPott Studios may restrict service access where reasonably necessary to protect users, systems, rights, or legal compliance.
8. Disclaimers and liability
Except where law provides otherwise, the app is provided “as is” without warranties of any kind. To the fullest extent permitted by law, JPott Studios is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for lost data, lost profits, or loss of goodwill.
Nothing in these terms excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded, including liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or for fraud.
9. Ending use
You may stop using Kind to Me at any time. Cancel any subscription through Apple or Google, use in-app controls to delete a sync account if you created one, and device controls to remove local app data. See the data deletion guide. Sections that by their nature should survive, ownership, disclaimers, and responsibility for past use, continue after use ends.
10. Governing law and disputes
JPott Studios is a trading name used by an individual sole trader based in Jamaica. These terms form an agreement between you and that person.
These terms, and any dispute arising from them or from use of the app, are governed by the laws of Jamaica, and the courts of Jamaica have jurisdiction to hear them.
These governing-law and venue terms do not remove protections you have where you live. Where the mandatory consumer law of your country of residence gives you rights, remedies, or access to local courts that cannot be waived by agreement, those continue to apply and nothing in this section limits them.
If something goes wrong, please write to jpottstudios@gmail.com first and allow 30 days to resolve it directly. Most issues are settled faster that way. Refunds and cancellations for app-store purchases are handled by Apple or Google under their own policies, not by JPott Studios; see section 5.
11. Changes and contact
If these terms materially change, JPott Studios will update the date and provide any notice required by law or the app stores. Questions: jpottstudios@gmail.com. See also the privacy policy and support page.
