Terms of Use
These terms are the agreement between you and Milo Messina, who operates Mandala ("Mandala", "we", "us"). By downloading or using Mandala you agree to them. If you don't agree, please don't use the app.
1. Who can use Mandala
You must be at least 13 years old to use Mandala. If you're under 18, or under the age of majority where you live, a parent or guardian must agree to these terms for you, and should supervise your use and approve any purchase.
2. What Mandala does
Mandala helps you break a goal into pillars and smaller moves, pick moves for each day, check them off and keep streaks. Mandala can draft questions, pillars and moves for you using Apple's on-device model or an AI service (see the Privacy Policy). The license to use the app is also governed by Apple's Licensed Application End User License Agreement (the "Apple EULA"). If these terms and the Apple EULA conflict, these terms apply to the extent the Apple EULA allows.
3. Health, safety and training
Mandala is not medical, nutritional, mental health or professional coaching advice. Its suggestions are general, are often written by an AI system, and don't know your health, fitness level, injuries, age or circumstances.
- Talk to a doctor or other qualified professional before starting a new exercise, training, nutrition, sleep or weight program, especially if you have a medical condition, are recovering from an injury, are pregnant, or are under 18.
- Physical training carries a risk of injury. Warm up, use proper technique and equipment, train in a safe place, and stop right away if you feel pain, dizziness or shortness of breath.
- Follow your coach's, trainer's and medical provider's guidance over anything in Mandala.
- If you think you have a medical emergency, call your local emergency number.
You decide which moves to do and how. You're responsible for doing them safely.
4. AI-drafted content
AI suggestions can be wrong, incomplete, repetitive or unsuitable for you. Review every pillar and move and edit or delete anything that doesn't fit. If Nine or a draft ever says something harmful, offensive or wrong, report it: long-press the reply and choose Report This Reply, or use Report an AI Response in ⋯ › Privacy & Terms, or email optiqinquiries@gmail.com. We review every report. Mandala doesn't guarantee that following any suggestion will help you reach your goal, earn a roster spot, scholarship or admission, or achieve any result.
5. Your content
Your goals, moves, notes and check-ins are yours. You give us permission to process the text you choose to send for drafting only as needed to produce suggestions for you, as described in the Privacy Policy. Don't enter content that's illegal, that infringes someone else's rights, or that contains other people's private information.
6. Mandala Plus
- Plans. Mandala Plus is offered as an auto-renewing subscription (monthly or yearly) or a one-time lifetime purchase. Prices are shown in the app and the App Store before you buy and may vary by country.
- Billing. Payment is charged to your Apple Account when you confirm the purchase. Apple handles all billing.
- Auto-renewal. Subscriptions renew automatically at the same price and length unless you turn off auto-renew at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Your account is charged for renewal within the 24 hours before the period ends.
- Free trials. If a free trial is offered, it converts to a paid subscription at the end of the trial unless you cancel at least 24 hours before it ends. Any unused part of a trial ends when you buy a subscription.
- Managing and cancelling. Manage or cancel in iPhone Settings › your name › Subscriptions. Cancelling stops future renewals. You keep Plus until the end of the period you've paid for.
- Refunds. Refunds are handled by Apple under its policies at reportaproblem.apple.com. We can't issue refunds directly.
- Lifetime. A lifetime purchase unlocks Plus for as long as we offer Mandala and Plus, on the Apple Account that bought it. It isn't a subscription and doesn't renew.
- Changes. We may change what's included in the free version or Plus, or change prices for future billing periods. Apple will notify you of subscription price increases as its rules require, and you can cancel before they apply.
Your chart and everything you've made stay yours whether or not you have Plus.
7. Acceptable use
Don't misuse Mandala. For example, don't access or call the Mandala server other than through the app, send automated or excessive requests, try to get around limits or security, reverse engineer the app except where the law allows, use Mandala to build a competing AI service, or use it for anything illegal or harmful. We may limit or stop access to drafting for anyone who does.
8. Our app and its availability
The Mandala app, its design, code and logo belong to us and our licensors. We give you a personal, non-transferable license to use the app under these terms and the Apple EULA. We may update, change or discontinue features, and drafting depends on third-party services that may be unavailable at times. If we discontinue Mandala, the data on your device stays on your device.
9. Disclaimers
To the fullest extent the law allows, Mandala is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, and non-infringement. We don't promise that Mandala will be uninterrupted, error-free or that data will never be lost. Keep your own copy of anything important.
10. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent the law allows, we won't be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for any injury, loss of data, profits, opportunities or goodwill, arising from or related to your use of Mandala or any suggestion in it. Our total liability for any claim relating to Mandala is limited to the greater of the amount you paid for Mandala in the 12 months before the claim, or US $50.
Some places don't allow certain warranties to be excluded or liability to be limited, so some of the above may not apply to you. Nothing in these terms limits liability that can't be limited by law, such as for death or personal injury caused by negligence where that rule applies, or for fraud.
11. Your responsibility
To the extent the law allows, you agree to cover reasonable losses and costs we incur because of your breach of these terms or your misuse of Mandala.
12. Ending these terms
You can stop using Mandala at any time by deleting the app. We may suspend or end your access to online features if you seriously or repeatedly break these terms. Sections 3, 4, 9, 10, 11 and 13 continue to apply after these terms end.
13. Law and disputes
These terms are governed by the laws that apply where you live, including any mandatory consumer protections you're entitled to there. Before starting a formal dispute, please email us so we can try to resolve it informally within 30 days.
14. Apple
These terms are between you and us, not Apple. Apple isn't responsible for Mandala or its content, has no obligation to provide maintenance or support for it, and isn't responsible for any product claims, including product liability, legal or regulatory compliance, or intellectual property claims. If Mandala fails to conform to an applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple may refund the purchase price, if any; Apple has no other warranty obligation. Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these terms and may enforce them against you. You confirm that you aren't located in a country subject to a US government embargo or on a US government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
15. Changes
We may update these terms. We'll change the date at the top, and if a change is significant we'll tell you in the app before it takes effect. If you keep using Mandala after that, the updated terms apply.
