Terms of Service
Please read these Terms of Service ("Terms") carefully before using Ovels. They form a binding legal agreement between you and Ishan, an individual developer based in Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh, India ("Developer," "we," "us"). By downloading, installing, or using Ovels (the "App"), you agree to these Terms. If you don't agree, don't use the App.
01 Acceptance of terms
These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, govern your access to and use of Ovels. They apply to every user of the App, regardless of how you obtained it (Apple App Store, Google Play, Indus Appstore, direct APK, or otherwise).
02 The App
Ovels is a personal fitness- and nutrition-tracking application that provides meal logging, AI-generated workout plans, progress tracking, and an AI chat coach. Ovels has no user accounts, no login, and no server-hosted subscription — it is provided as a free, local-first tool. We may add, remove, or change features, including AI models and cloud functionality, at any time without notice.
03 Eligibility
Ovels does not perform age verification. Use of the App is recommended for individuals aged 16 and older. If you are under 18, you should only use Ovels with the knowledge and consent of a parent or legal guardian, who is responsible for supervising your use. By using Ovels, you represent that you meet this recommendation or have obtained the required consent — we rely entirely on that representation and disclaim all liability arising from any inaccurate representation of age or consent status.
04 Medical & fitness disclaimer
Ovels is not a medical device, and does not provide medical, nutritional, or fitness advice. All calorie targets, macro splits, workout plans, and AI Coach responses are generated by automated, general-purpose models and algorithms for informational and educational purposes only. They are not reviewed by a physician, dietitian, or certified trainer, and are not a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.
You should consult a qualified physician before beginning any exercise program or making significant dietary changes, particularly if you have — or suspect you may have — any medical condition, injury, pregnancy, disordered eating history, or other health concern. Never disregard professional medical advice or delay seeking it because of something you read or were told by Ovels. You use Ovels's workout plans, nutrition estimates, and AI Coach entirely at your own risk. We expressly disclaim any and all liability for injury, illness, adverse health outcome, or death arising from or related to your use of, or reliance on, the App.
05 AI-generated content
Ovels's meal recognition, workout generation, and AI Coach features use automated AI models — run on-device or via cloud inference — that can be inaccurate, incomplete, or wrong, including miscounting calories, misreading a barcode or photo, or giving unsuitable exercise suggestions. You are solely responsible for verifying anything you intend to rely on, and for exercising your own judgment before acting on any AI-generated output.
06 License to use the App
Subject to these Terms, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and use Ovels on devices you own or control, for your own personal, non-commercial use. All rights not expressly granted are reserved.
07 Your content
"Your Content" means anything you input into Ovels — meal photos, text, workout logs, progress photos, coach messages, and profile data. You retain all ownership of Your Content. Because Ovels processes most content on-device, we generally do not receive or store a copy of it; where a cloud AI request or Open Food Facts lookup is required to deliver a feature (see Privacy Policy §5–6), you grant us a limited license solely to transmit that specific content to the relevant service for the sole purpose of returning a result to you. You are solely responsible for Your Content and confirm you have the right to submit it (e.g. photos you take yourself).
08 Acceptable use
You agree not to: (a) reverse-engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract source code from the App except where applicable law expressly permits; (b) use the App for any unlawful purpose; (c) attempt to interfere with, disrupt, or gain unauthorized access to any systems the App connects to; (d) use the App to store or transmit content that is unlawful, infringing, or harmful to others; or (e) misrepresent your identity, age, or consent status.
09 Third-party services
Ovels integrates with Apple HealthKit, Google Health Connect, Open Food Facts, cloud AI inference providers, and app-store platforms. These are independent third parties we don't control. We are not responsible for their availability, accuracy, security, or content, and your use of them is governed by their own terms. If any of these services becomes unavailable or changes, related Ovels features may stop working, and we have no liability for that.
10 Intellectual property
The App, its design, branding ("Ovels" and associated marks), source code, and all content we provide (excluding Your Content and third-party data such as Open Food Facts entries) are owned by the Developer or our licensors and protected by applicable intellectual-property laws. Nothing in these Terms transfers any such ownership to you.
11 No warranty
The app is provided "as is" and "as available," without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, or statutory, including without limitation implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, accuracy, or that the app will be uninterrupted, error-free, or secure.
We do not warrant that any calorie count, macro figure, workout recommendation, or AI Coach response is accurate, complete, or suitable for your circumstances. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, we disclaim all warranties not expressly stated in these Terms.
12 Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, in no event will the developer be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, including without limitation loss of data, loss of profits, personal injury, or health-related outcomes, arising out of or related to your use of, or inability to use, the app — even if advised of the possibility of such damages.
Because Ovels is provided free of charge, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Developer's total aggregate liability for any and all claims arising out of or relating to the App or these Terms — whether in contract, tort, statute, or otherwise — will not exceed the greater of (a) the amount, if any, you paid to the Developer for the App in the twelve (12) months before the claim arose, or (b) five hundred Indian Rupees (₹500). Some jurisdictions don't allow the exclusion or limitation of certain damages, so some of the above limitations may not apply to you to the extent prohibited by mandatory law — in that case, our liability is limited to the smallest extent permitted by that law.
13 Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Developer from and against any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or related to: (a) Your Content; (b) your use or misuse of the App; (c) your violation of these Terms; or (d) your violation of any applicable law or third-party right.
14 Termination
You may stop using Ovels, and delete it, at any time. We may suspend or discontinue the App (in whole or in part), or restrict your access to any feature, at any time and without liability, for any reason, including if we reasonably believe you've violated these Terms. Sections of these Terms that by their nature should survive termination (including §§ 10–13 and 16–17) will survive.
15 Changes to these Terms
We may revise these Terms from time to time. The "Last updated" date above will reflect the most recent revision. Your continued use of Ovels after a change becomes effective constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms. If you don't agree with a revision, your only remedy is to stop using the App.
16 Governing law & mandatory arbitration
These Terms are governed by the laws of India, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.
Binding arbitration — you are waiving your right to go to court. Any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or your use of the App — including its formation, breach, termination, or validity — will be resolved exclusively by final and binding arbitration under the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996 (as amended), rather than in court.
- Seat & venue: Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh, India.
- Arbitrator: a single arbitrator, appointed by mutual agreement, or failing agreement within 30 days, as provided under the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996.
- Language: English.
- Individual claims only: arbitration will proceed on an individual basis only. You waive any right to bring or participate in a class, collective, or representative action against the Developer, to the fullest extent permitted by law.
- Award: the arbitrator's award will be final and binding, and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction solely for the purpose of enforcement.
- Carve-out: either party may seek interim or emergency injunctive relief from a court of competent jurisdiction in Varanasi where necessary to prevent irreparable harm, pending the constitution of the arbitral tribunal.
If any part of this arbitration clause is found unenforceable, the remainder will remain in full force, and any dispute not subject to arbitration will be resolved exclusively in the courts of Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh, India, to which you irrevocably submit.
17 General
Entire agreement. These Terms and the Privacy Policy constitute the entire agreement between you and the Developer regarding the App, superseding any prior agreements.
Severability. If any provision is held invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in full force and effect, and the invalid provision will be reformed to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable.
No waiver. Our failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of our right to do so later.
Assignment. You may not assign these Terms without our written consent; we may assign them freely, including in connection with a transfer of the App.
Force majeure. We are not liable for any failure or delay caused by circumstances beyond our reasonable control.
