You are responsible for activity that occurs under your account.
4) Privacy
Our Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and share information:
If there is a conflict between these Terms and the Privacy Policy about data handling, the Privacy Policy controls.
5) User Content and Confidentiality
Your content
“User Content” means content you submit through the Services, such as reflections, answers, feedback messages, and uploaded files (e.g., photos or attachments).
As between you and us, you keep ownership of your User Content.
License to operate the Services
You grant us a limited, worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, process, transmit, and display your User Content only as needed to:
- operate and provide the Services,
- secure the Services and prevent abuse,
- troubleshoot and improve reliability, and

Private by default
User Content in the App is intended to be private and not publicly visible. The Services do not offer public community posting features in the first release.
Sensitive content notice (wellbeing/self-reflection)
The Services support wellbeing and self-reflection content, which can be sensitive by nature. The Services are not designed to store medical records. Please avoid submitting medical or diagnostic information.
6) Acceptable Use
You agree not to:
- violate any applicable law or regulation,
- interfere with or disrupt the security or operation of the Services,
- attempt to gain unauthorized access to systems, accounts, or data,
- use automated means to access or scrape the Services without permission,
- upload or transmit malware, harmful code, or content designed to compromise security,
- reverse engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract source code, except where such restriction is prohibited by law.
We may suspend or terminate access if we believe your use violates these Terms or creates risk to the Services, other users, or third parties.
7) Feedback and Communications
Feedback
If you submit feedback, suggestions, or ideas, you agree we may use them to improve the Services without compensation or obligation to you.
Communications
We may send you service-related messages (e.g., security notices, support replies, and operational updates) via email or in-app means. You are responsible for keeping your contact information up to date.
Reporting abuse
To report abuse or suspected misuse of the Services, contact: myinnerchild.hq@gmail.com
8) Careers
If you apply for a job through the Website:
- You agree to provide truthful information.
- Resume/CV uploads may be stored and reviewed by authorized personnel.
- Submitting an application does not create an employment relationship.
- We may reject or remove job posts or applications at our discretion.
9) Intellectual Property
The Services (including the App, Website, design, text, graphics, logos, and proprietary content such as tasks, questions, and affirmations) are owned by or licensed to us and are protected by intellectual property laws.
Except for the limited rights expressly granted to you in these Terms, we reserve all rights in the Services.
10) App Stores (Apple / Google)
If you download the App from the Apple App Store or Google Play:
- These Terms are between you and the Operator, not Apple or Google.
- Apple and Google are not responsible for the Services, maintenance, or support.
- Your use of the App must also comply with the applicable store terms and policies.
11) Third-Party Services and Software
The Services rely on third-party platforms and providers (for example, hosting, authentication, storage, and email delivery). Your use of those third-party services may be subject to their terms and privacy policies.
The Services may include third-party software components subject to open-source or third-party license terms. Those terms apply to the extent required.
12) Medical and Emergency Disclaimer
The Services do not provide medical, psychological, or therapeutic services and do not create a clinician–patient relationship.
The Services are not emergency services. If you think you may be experiencing an emergency, contact your local emergency number immediately.
Do not rely on the Services as a substitute for professional advice, diagnosis, or treatment.
13) Disclaimer of Warranties
The Services are provided “as is” and “as available.” To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.
We do not guarantee the Services will be uninterrupted, error-free, or secure.
14) Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law:
- We will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for loss of profits, revenues, data, goodwill, or other intangible losses.
- Our total liability for any claim related to the Services will not exceed USD $100 (or the minimum amount allowed by law, if greater).
Exceptions: Nothing in these Terms limits liability to the extent it cannot be limited under applicable law (for example, for fraud or intentional misconduct, or for death/personal injury where such limitation is prohibited).
Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations of liability, so some of these limits may not apply to you.
15) Indemnification
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Operator from any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or related to:
- your access to or use of the Services,
- your violation of these Terms, or
- your User Content.
16) Termination
You may stop using the Services at any time.
We may suspend or terminate your access to the Services at any time if we believe:
- you violated these Terms, or
- your use creates risk for the Services, other users, or third parties.
Sections that by their nature should survive termination (including intellectual property, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnification, and dispute provisions) will survive.
17) Account Deletion
To request deletion of your account and associated data, email: myinnerchild.hq@gmail.com.
The App may also provide an in-app way to initiate an account deletion request. In all cases, we may need to verify the request before deleting data.
We will process deletion requests as soon as reasonably possible after verifying the request, unless we must retain certain information to comply with law, resolve disputes, or enforce these Terms.
18) Changes to the Services and Terms
We may modify or discontinue any part of the Services at any time.
We may update these Terms from time to time. If changes are material, we will provide notice by posting updated Terms and updating the effective date. Your continued use of the Services after the updated Terms take effect means you accept the updated Terms.
19) Governing Law and Disputes
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, USA, excluding conflict-of-law rules.
Any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Services will be brought in the state or federal courts located in California, USA, and you consent to their jurisdiction and venue.
Mandatory consumer protections: If you are a consumer in a jurisdiction that provides mandatory protections (including certain EU/EEA consumer rights), those mandatory rights remain in effect and may apply despite the governing law clause.
20) Miscellaneous
- Entire agreement: These Terms and the Privacy Policy form the entire agreement regarding the Services.
- Severability: If any provision is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in effect.
- No waiver: Failure to enforce any right is not a waiver.
- Assignment: You may not assign these Terms without our consent. We may assign these Terms as part of a reorganization or transfer of the Services.
