Terms of Service — White Noise Sleep with AI

Effective date: [DATE] Last updated: [DATE]

These Terms of Service ("Terms") are an agreement between you and [COMPANY OR DEVELOPER NAME] ("we", "us") for your use of White Noise Sleep with AI (the "App") on iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch and Apple TV, including its widgets, Live Activities, Siri shortcuts and Pro subscription.

By downloading or using the App, you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you don't agree, please don't use the App.

1. Who can use the App

You must be at least 18 years old, or the age of majority where you live, to buy a subscription or add API keys. The App is meant to be used by parents and caregivers. Children should not operate it.

2. Important safety information

The App is not a medical device and is not a baby monitor certified for safety. It does not diagnose, treat or prevent any condition, and it is not a substitute for supervision or for advice from a doctor.

• Cry detection may miss crying or react to other sounds. It depends on your device, its placement, the microphone, the battery, iOS, phone calls and other interruptions. Never rely on it as your only way of monitoring your child.
• Always follow safe sleep guidance from your pediatrician or local health authority: for infants, a firm, flat sleep surface on their back, with an empty crib.
• Keep sound levels low and keep your device at least 2 m (about 7 ft) from the crib, never inside it. Keep chargers and cables out of reach.
• Parenting tips, including AI-written tips, are general information only and may not suit your child. Ask a qualified professional about your child's health and sleep.
• If you are worried about your child's health, contact a doctor or emergency services right away.

3. Licence to use the App

We give you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to use the App on Apple devices you own or control, as permitted by the Apple Media Services Terms ("Usage Rules"). You may not copy, modify, reverse engineer, resell or redistribute the App or its content, except where the law allows it.

4. Free features and Pro subscription

Most of the App is free. White Noise Sleep Pro unlocks cry detection, the AI Sleep Studio, voice recording and AI parenting tips.

• Pro is offered as a monthly or yearly auto-renewing subscription, sometimes with a free trial.
• Payment is charged to your Apple Account when you confirm the purchase, or when the free trial ends.
• Your subscription renews automatically at the same price and length unless you turn off auto-renew at least 24 hours before the current period ends. Your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours before the end of the current period.
• Manage or cancel in Settings › [your name] › Subscriptions on your device. Cancelling stops future renewals; you keep Pro until the end of the period you've paid for.
• If you subscribe during a free trial, any unused part of the trial ends when you subscribe.
• Refunds are handled by Apple under its policies. Request one at reportaproblem.apple.com.
• We may change prices or features for future periods. Apple will tell you before a price increase takes effect, as its rules require.

5. AI features and your API keys

The AI features work only with an API key you obtain from a third-party AI provider (for example an OpenAI-compatible service or ElevenLabs).

• Your account, your costs. You are responsible for your account with that provider, for following its terms and usage policies, and for all charges it bills you. Pro does not include any AI usage. Requests, especially real AI video, can cost money.
• Keep your keys private. Keys are stored in your device's Keychain. Don't share your device or keys with people you don't trust.
• AI output can be wrong, odd or unsuitable. Lullabies, sounds, videos and tips are generated automatically. Listen to or watch every creation yourself before playing it to your child, and don't play anything you find inappropriate.
• What you send. Don't include personal information in your descriptions. You must have the right to anything you submit.
• Ownership of creations. Between you and us, you may use your creations for personal, non-commercial use, subject to the AI provider's terms. We claim no ownership of them.
• We do not control third-party providers and are not responsible for their availability, output, pricing or data practices.

6. Your content

Voice recordings, mixes, logs and creations stay on your device. You keep any rights you have in them. You are responsible for backing up anything you want to keep; deleting the App deletes them.

7. Acceptable use

You agree not to use the App to:

• break any law, or record anyone without their consent where the law requires it;
• create or play harmful, hateful, sexual or frightening content, especially for children;
• misuse, overload or try to get around the App's features, subscription checks or security;
• remove copyright or other notices.

8. Content and intellectual property

The App, its design, code, icon, animated scenes, built-in sounds and text belong to us or our licensors and are protected by law. Some nature sounds are streamed from third-party sources and remain subject to their own licences. "Apple", "iPhone", "iPad", "Apple Watch", "Apple TV" and "Siri" are trademarks of Apple Inc.; the App is not made or endorsed by Apple.

9. Availability and changes

We may update, change or remove features at any time, and some features need an internet connection, iOS permissions or particular devices. Streamed sounds and third-party AI services may become unavailable. We don't guarantee the App will always be available or error-free.

10. Disclaimer of warranties

To the fullest extent the law allows, the App is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy and non-infringement. We do not warrant that cry detection will detect every cry, that sounds will help your child sleep, or that AI output will be accurate or suitable.

11. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent the law allows, we will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for loss of data, sleep, profits or goodwill, arising from your use of the App or third-party services. Our total liability for any claim relating to the App is limited to the amount you paid us for the App in the 12 months before the claim, or US $50 if you paid nothing.

Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law, such as liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or your rights as a consumer under the laws of your country.

12. Indemnity

You agree to compensate us for claims arising from your breach of these Terms, your misuse of the App, or content you submit to AI providers, to the extent the law allows.

13. Ending these Terms

You can stop using the App at any time by deleting it (and cancelling any subscription in your Apple Account). We may suspend or end your licence if you seriously break these Terms. Sections 2, 5, 8, 10, 11, 12 and 15 continue after these Terms end.

14. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms. We will change the "Last updated" date and, for significant changes, tell you in the App or in the App Store release notes. Continuing to use the App after a change means you accept the new Terms.

15. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of [COUNTRY / STATE], without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Disputes will be handled by the courts of [CITY, COUNTRY], unless the law of your country gives you the right to bring a claim where you live.

16. Apple-specific terms

These Terms are between you and us, not Apple. Apple is not responsible for the App or its content. Apple has no obligation to provide maintenance or support for the App. If the App fails to meet any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price (if any); to the maximum extent the law allows, Apple has no other warranty obligation. Apple is not responsible for any claims relating to the App, including product liability, legal or regulatory compliance, consumer protection or intellectual-property claims; we are responsible for those to the extent these Terms don't disclaim them. You confirm that you are not in a country subject to a U.S. Government embargo and are not on any U.S. Government list of restricted parties. Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and may enforce them against you.
