1. Introduction
Welcome to Holycat (“App,” “we,” “our,” or “us”). These Terms of Use (“Terms,” “Agreement,” or “EULA”) are a legally binding agreement between you (“User,” “you,” or “your”) and bys7 Studio regarding your use of the Holycat mobile application available on the Apple App Store.
By downloading, installing, accessing, or using Holycat, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the App.

5. AI Faith Chat
Holycat offers an optional AI chat designed as a faith-based companion to help you navigate personal reflection and spiritual encouragement—not as a medical or clinical service.
For chat purposes, the feature collects only basic details you choose to provide:
- Name, as you enter it for the session
- Current mood, at the time of the conversation
The AI chat does not collect other personal data for chat purposes. All chat messages are stored exclusively on your device and are automatically deleted after two (2) days. We do not upload or retain your chat conversations on our servers.
No medical or prescription advice: The AI chatbot does not provide medical advice and never recommends or prescribes medication, supplements, or prescriptions of any kind. It is not a substitute for professional medical, psychological, or emergency care. If you need medical help, contact a qualified healthcare provider or emergency services.
For more detail on how chat data is handled, see our Privacy Policy.
6. Music Library
Holycat includes a music library of licensed meditational songs for personal listening within the App. Tracks are provided under applicable licenses; you may not copy, redistribute, or use them outside the App except as permitted by law or the rights holder.
Playback does not require you to upload personal audio. Use of the music library is subject to these Terms and our Privacy Policy.
7. Mental Wellbeing Report
When you request an overall mental wellbeing report, the App may use on-device information—such as your app usage patterns, tasks you have completed, and an AI-generated summary of your journal entries—to produce a report focused on mental wellbeing insights only. These reports do not include physical health assessments or clinical diagnoses.
The AI does not collect or store this information on our servers. Data is read only at the moment you request a report, used to generate that report, and then immediately deleted from processing. We do not retain copies of your journal content, task history, or usage data for report generation beyond that single, on-demand request.
Reports are for personal reflection only. They are not medical advice and should not be relied on for treatment decisions.
8. Important Disclaimers (Mood Tracker & Wellbeing)
Holycat is intended for spiritual encouragement, habit-building, and personal reflection. It is not a medical device and does not provide medical, psychological, or professional counseling advice. The AI faith chat and mental wellbeing reports are for personal reflection only—they are not clinical tools and must not be used to diagnose, treat, or manage any health condition.
The AI chatbot will not recommend medication, supplements, or prescriptions. Mood tracking and wellbeing reports reflect patterns in your App activity and journal summaries; they are not a substitute for care from a licensed professional.
If you are experiencing a crisis or need immediate help, contact local emergency services or a qualified professional.

You agree to:
- Use the App only for lawful purposes

16. Subscriptions & Payments
Some Holycat features may require a paid subscription. All subscriptions are billed and managed by Apple through the App Store. Apple handles payment processing; we do not receive or store your payment card details.
When you purchase or renew a subscription, we receive purchase confirmation from Apple (via StoreKit). Subscription purchase events may be sent to our analytics partners (Google Firebase Analytics and Meta App Events) to measure conversions and campaign performance, as described in our Privacy Policy.
Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. You can manage or cancel your subscription in Settings → [your name] → Subscriptions on your iPhone.
17. Analytics & App Tracking
Holycat uses third-party analytics and advertising measurement partners, including Google Firebase Analytics and Meta (Facebook) App Events, to understand app usage, measure marketing campaigns, and track subscription conversions. During onboarding, iOS may ask whether you allow Holycat to track your activity across other companies' apps and websites (App Tracking Transparency).
We do not sell your personal information. Your on-device journal, prayers, mood entries, and similar personal content are not shared with these partners. For full details—including what data is shared, IDFA/ATT, and how to opt out—see our Privacy Policy.
18. Apple App Store Terms
These Terms are between you and bys7 Studio, not Apple. Apple is not responsible for the App or its content. Your use of the App is also subject to Apple’s App Store Terms of Service.
