Terms of Service

Last updated: June 2026

Please read these Terms of Service carefully before using Clara Pregnancy.

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using Clara, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree to these terms, please do not use the app.

2. Description of Service

Clara is a pregnancy and baby care companion app that provides AI-powered health information, tracking tools, and educational content to support you throughout your pregnancy journey.

3. Account Registration

You must provide accurate and complete information when creating an account. You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account credentials. Only one account per person is permitted.

4. Age Restriction

You must be at least 18 years old to create an account or use Clara. The app is intended exclusively for adults. By agreeing to these Terms, you represent and warrant that you are 18 years of age or older.

If you are a parent or guardian and believe that a minor has created an account, please contact us immediately at clarapregnancy@gmail.com. Accounts found to belong to users under 18 will be suspended and all associated data will be permanently deleted.

5. Acceptable Use

You agree to use Clara for personal, non-commercial purposes only. You may not:

• Attempt to reverse engineer, decompile, or exploit the app
• Misuse the service or interfere with its operation
• Submit false or misleading health data
• Use the app for any unlawful purpose
• Use Clara's reproductive or health data features to deceive, harm, or harass any other individual

6. AI Limitations & Provider Disclosure

Clara uses artificial intelligence to generate health information and personalized insights. You acknowledge and agree that:

• AI-generated responses may be inaccurate, incomplete, out of date, or not applicable to your specific situation
• AI content is produced by language models that can make errors and do not have access to your complete medical history
• You must not rely on AI-generated content to make medical decisions, diagnose conditions, or choose or modify treatments
• AI responses are not reviewed by a licensed medical professional before delivery

Always consult a qualified healthcare provider before acting on any health information provided by Clara.

AI provider disclosure. Clara's AI features are powered by Anthropic, Inc. (Claude) and Google LLC (Gemini). These are probabilistic language models — their outputs are not guaranteed to be accurate, current, or complete, and must not be relied upon as the sole source of truth for any health decision. Your use of AI features within Clara is also subject to Anthropic's usage policies (anthropic.com/legal) and Google's terms of service (ai.google.dev/terms).

7. AI Usage Limits

AI features in Clara are subject to monthly usage caps to manage service costs and ensure availability for all users:

• Chat messages powered by Claude AI: 100 per calendar month
• Journal reflections powered by Claude AI: 8 per calendar month
• Tracker insights powered by Gemini AI: subject to fair-use limits

These caps reset on the first day of each calendar month. The app will notify you as you approach your limit. Unused quota does not carry over to the following month and is non-refundable. We reserve the right to adjust these limits at any time; material changes will be communicated within the app.

8. In-App Purchases & Subscriptions

Certain features of Clara may require a paid subscription or in-app purchase. All billing is processed by Apple App Store or Google Play — Clara does not directly handle payment card information.

• Refunds. Clara cannot issue refunds directly. All refund requests must be submitted through Apple (support.apple.com) or Google Play, subject to their respective refund policies.
• Auto-renewal. Subscriptions automatically renew at the end of each billing period unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the renewal date.
• Cancellation. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period. You will retain access to paid features until that date.
• Managing subscriptions (iOS). Go to iOS Settings → [Your Apple ID] → Subscriptions → Clara to view, change, or cancel your subscription.
• Price changes. We reserve the right to change subscription pricing. We will give you advance notice of any price change and the opportunity to cancel before the new price takes effect.

9. No Doctor-Patient Relationship

Use of Clara does not create a doctor-patient relationship, therapist-patient relationship, or any other professional or medical relationship between you and Clara or any of its team members, employees, contractors, or AI systems. No information provided through the app constitutes professional medical advice, and no licensed medical professional is involved in generating or reviewing responses to your queries.

10. Medical Disclaimer

Clara is NOT a medical device and does NOT provide medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment recommendations. All information provided through the app is for educational and informational purposes only and is not a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

ALWAYS seek the advice of your physician, midwife, or other qualified healthcare provider with any questions you have regarding a medical condition, symptom, or treatment option. NEVER disregard or delay seeking professional medical care because of information provided by Clara.

IN A MEDICAL EMERGENCY, CALL 911 OR YOUR LOCAL EMERGENCY NUMBER IMMEDIATELY. Do not use this app in an emergency situation.

11. Mental Health & Emotional Wellness Disclaimer

Clara is NOT a mental health provider. Neither Clara nor any of its AI systems is a licensed therapist, psychologist, counselor, or psychiatrist, and nothing in the app creates or implies a therapist-patient relationship of any kind.

• Mood check-ins are personal self-tracking tools for your own awareness only — they are not therapy, clinical monitoring, or mental health treatment.
• AI journal reflections are reflective writing support tools — they are not psychological counseling, therapy, or mental health treatment.
• Clara does not diagnose, screen for, treat, or monitor any mental health condition — including depression, anxiety, postpartum depression (PPD), or any other perinatal mood or anxiety disorder.

If you are experiencing a mental health crisis:

• 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline: Call or text 988 (US)
• Postpartum Support International: 1-800-944-4773
• Mental health emergency: Call 911 or go to your nearest emergency room immediately.

12. Health Risk Alerts — Not a Diagnosis

Clara includes a pattern-detection feature that generates informational alerts based on data you track in the app. This feature operates in two modes:

• Pregnancy mode flags patterns related to conditions such as preeclampsia, gestational hypertension, decreased fetal movement, preterm labor, persistent low mood, persistent anxiety, dehydration patterns, rapid weight gain, and significant bleeding.
• TTC (Trying to Conceive) mode flags fertility-related patterns such as cycle irregularities, ovulation signals, LH surge detection, and BBT thermal shifts.

THESE ALERTS ARE INFORMATIONAL PATTERN SUMMARIES ONLY. They are NOT a medical diagnosis, clinical assessment, or professional recommendation of any kind — in either mode.

You acknowledge and agree that:

• A flag does not mean you have the condition; the absence of a flag does not mean you are free of the condition
• These alerts do not replace evaluation by a licensed OB, midwife, reproductive endocrinologist, or other qualified healthcare provider
• Clara makes no representations about the accuracy, completeness, or clinical validity of any flagged condition in either mode
• Clara, its team, and its AI systems bear no liability for any health outcome, clinical decision, or action (or inaction) taken in response to any risk alert in any mode

Contact your healthcare provider whenever a condition is flagged.

13. Intellectual Property

All content, design, graphics, and technology in Clara are owned by us and protected by applicable intellectual property laws. You may not copy, modify, distribute, or create derivative works based on app content without our prior written consent.

14. User Content

You retain ownership of all content you create within the app, including journal entries and notes. By using the app, you grant us a limited license to process your content solely to provide and improve the service.

15. Push Notification Consent

Clara may send you push notifications to support your health routine, including reminders (hydration, weight, blood pressure, mood), health alerts, and coaching messages. By enabling notifications, you consent to receiving these communications.

You can withdraw consent at any time by going to iOS Settings → Notifications → Clara and disabling notifications. Turning off push notifications does not affect your ability to use any other part of the app.

16. Feedback & Suggestions

We welcome your feedback. Any feedback, ideas, or suggestions you submit — whether through the app, by email, or through any other channel — may be used by Clara to improve our products and services. By submitting feedback, you grant Clara a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free license to use, reproduce, adapt, and incorporate that feedback without any obligation, compensation, or attribution to you.

17. Privacy

Your privacy is important to us. Please refer to our Privacy Policy for detailed information on how we collect, use, and protect your data.

19. Third-Party Integrations

Clara's Apple HealthKit and Google Calendar integrations are provided by third parties (Apple Inc. and Google LLC respectively) and are subject to their own terms of service and privacy policies.

Your use of those integrations is at your own risk and subject to Apple's and Google's applicable terms.

20. Limitation of Liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, CLARA IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, WE SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES — INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA, PERSONAL INJURY, PROPERTY DAMAGE, OR HEALTH OUTCOMES — ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR USE OF, OR INABILITY TO USE, CLARA OR ANY AI-GENERATED CONTENT, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

IN NO EVENT WILL OUR AGGREGATE LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR YOUR USE OF CLARA EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US IN THE TWELVE MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM OR (B) ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS (US $100).

21. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Clara and its officers, directors, employees, contractors, and agents from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, or expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or relating to:

• Your violation of any applicable law or the rights of any third party
• Any health decisions you make based on information provided by Clara

22. Account Termination

You may delete your account at any time through the app's Settings. We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms of Service.

Data retention on deletion. After you delete your account, your personal data will be permanently deleted within 30 days, except where retention is required by applicable law. Backup copies of data may persist in our systems for up to 90 days before being purged from all backup storage. Once deleted, data cannot be recovered.

23. Force Majeure

Clara is not liable for any delay or failure to perform its obligations under these Terms caused by circumstances beyond its reasonable control. This includes, without limitation, natural disasters, widespread internet or infrastructure outages, failures of third-party services (including Anthropic, Google, Neon, Expo, or Apple), pandemics, acts of government, or changes in law or regulation. We will make reasonable efforts to resume normal service as soon as practicable.

24. Changes to Terms

We may modify these Terms of Service at any time. Changes will be posted within the app. Your continued use of Clara after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the updated terms.

25. Dispute Resolution

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY — IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS.

Any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or your use of Clara that cannot be resolved informally shall be resolved by binding arbitration administered by JAMS under its applicable rules, rather than in court. The seat of arbitration shall be San Francisco, California. The arbitration shall be conducted in English.

CLASS ACTION WAIVER: You agree that any arbitration or proceeding shall be limited to the dispute between us and you individually. To the fullest extent permitted by law, you waive the right to participate in a class action lawsuit or class-wide arbitration.

Nothing in this section prevents either party from seeking injunctive or other equitable relief from a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent irreparable harm pending arbitration.

26. Governing Law

These Terms of Service are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflict of law principles. For any matter not subject to arbitration, you consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state and federal courts located in San Francisco County, California.

27. Severability

If any provision of these Terms of Service is found to be unenforceable or invalid under applicable law, that provision shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable, or if it cannot be modified, it shall be severed from these Terms. The remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect.
