Furnest Terms of Service
Effective date: May 27, 2026 Last updated: May 27, 2026
Please read these Terms of Service ("Terms") carefully before downloading or using Furnest ("the App"). By downloading, installing, or using the App, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the App.
1. About Furnest
Furnest is an iOS application that helps households keep health and care records for their pets — vaccines, vet visits, medications, weight, food, parasite prevention, dental, grooming, and notes — with smart reminders and optional AI document scanning. The App is developed and published by Ryan Calpin ("Developer," "we," "us," or "our").
2. Acceptance of Terms
By using Furnest, you confirm that:
- You are at least 13 years of age (or the minimum age required in your jurisdiction to enter into a binding agreement).
- You have the legal capacity to enter into these Terms.
- You are using the App for lawful purposes only.
3. License
We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to download and use the App on Apple devices you own or control, solely for personal, non-commercial purposes, in accordance with Apple's App Store Terms of Service and these Terms.
You may not:
- Copy, modify, distribute, sell, or sublicense the App or any portion of it.
- Reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the App, except as permitted by applicable law.
- Remove or alter any proprietary notices or labels.
- Use the App to develop a competing product or service.
4. Free Tier and Pro Upgrade
4.1 Free Tier
The App is free to download. Free tier users may track one (1) pet with full manual record-keeping, smart reminders, and iCloud sync.
4.2 Furnest Pro
Furnest Pro unlocks unlimited pets, AI document scanning, PDF export, the home-screen widget, and full reminder timing. It is offered as:
- Monthly auto-renewing subscription ($3.99/month)
- Yearly auto-renewing subscription ($24.99/year)
- Lifetime one-time non-consumable purchase ($49.99)
Both subscriptions include a 7-day free trial for new subscribers. Purchases are processed by Apple through the App Store and are subject to Apple's App Store Terms of Service. All sales are final. Refunds, if any, are handled solely by Apple. You may restore a previous purchase at no charge via "Restore Purchases" on any device signed into the same Apple ID. All three tiers support Apple Family Sharing.
4.3 Auto-Renewal and Cancellation
Subscriptions automatically renew unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel anytime in the App Store under your account's Subscriptions. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period; partial periods are not refunded.
4.4 Promotional Codes
Furnest may distribute promotional or offer codes (for friends and family, press, or beta testers). Codes are single-use unless otherwise stated, grant the access specified in the code, have no cash value, and cannot be combined.
4.5 Price Changes
We reserve the right to change prices at any time. Price changes will not affect purchases already completed.
5. On-Device and Third-Party AI Features
Furnest Pro includes optional AI document scanning. You may choose Apple Intelligence (on-device), Claude (Anthropic), or ChatGPT (OpenAI).
- With Apple Intelligence, all processing occurs on your device; nothing is transmitted.
- With Claude or ChatGPT, you must supply your own API key. Furnest sends only the OCR text of a document you explicitly scan — never images or other app data. Your use of those providers is governed by their terms (Anthropic, OpenAI).
- AI-generated extraction is provided for convenience only. We make no guarantees about accuracy. Always review extracted records before saving — every parsed field is editable.
6. iCloud Sync
The App optionally uses Apple iCloud (CloudKit) to synchronize your records across devices signed into the same Apple ID. iCloud data is governed by Apple's iCloud Terms and Conditions. We do not have access to data stored in your iCloud account. We are not responsible for data loss arising from sync conflicts.
7. Your Content
7.1 Ownership
You retain full ownership of all pet records, photos, and notes you create in the App ("Your Content"). We claim no intellectual property rights over Your Content.
7.2 Storage and Backup
All Your Content is stored locally on your device and, if enabled, in your personal iCloud account. We do not maintain backups of Your Content. You are responsible for maintaining your own backups.
8. Medical Disclaimer
Furnest is a record-keeping app, not a veterinary or medical service. It does not provide veterinary advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Reminders are convenience features — always confirm vaccine schedules, medication dosages, and care plans with a licensed veterinarian. We are not responsible for any harm resulting from missed reminders, incorrect records, or AI parsing errors.
9. Privacy
Our full Privacy Policy is available alongside this document under Ryan Calpin's Apps. Key points: we do not collect personally identifiable information; the App does not transmit your records to any server we control; on-device AI keeps data on your device; third-party AI runs only with your own key.
10. Intellectual Property
The App, including its design, code, graphics, and documentation, is owned by the Developer and protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws. The Furnest name and logo are proprietary to the Developer. Nothing in these Terms transfers any intellectual property rights to you other than the limited license in Section 3.
11. Disclaimer of Warranties
THE APP IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.
We do not warrant that the App will be uninterrupted or error-free, that defects will be corrected, that AI-generated content will be accurate, or that iCloud sync will always succeed. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties, so the above may not apply to you.
12. Limitation of Liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL THE DEVELOPER BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF DATA, BUSINESS, OR PROFITS, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THESE TERMS OR YOUR USE OF THE APP. THE DEVELOPER'S TOTAL CUMULATIVE LIABILITY SHALL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT YOU PAID FOR THE APP (INCLUDING IN-APP PURCHASES) IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM.
13. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Developer from any claims, damages, losses, or expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from: (a) your use of the App in violation of these Terms; (b) Your Content; (c) your violation of any applicable law or third-party rights.
14. Third-Party Services
The App integrates with Apple platform services (App Store, iCloud, StoreKit, Apple Intelligence) and, optionally, Anthropic and OpenAI. Use of those services is governed by their own terms and policies. We are not responsible for the availability or conduct of any third-party service.
15. Updates and Changes
We may update the App from time to time to add features, fix bugs, or comply with legal requirements. Updates may modify or remove features, including free-tier functionality. We may revise these Terms at any time; when we do, we will update the "Last Updated" date above. Continued use after a change constitutes acceptance.
16. Termination
You may stop using the App at any time by uninstalling it. We may suspend or discontinue the App at any time without notice. Lifetime purchasers retain offline use on any device where the App is installed, but future updates and iCloud sync are not guaranteed if the App is discontinued. Sections that by their nature should survive termination will survive.
17. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution
These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of North Carolina, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-law provisions. Any dispute shall first be addressed through good-faith negotiation. If unresolved, disputes shall be subject to binding arbitration under the rules of the American Arbitration Association (AAA), conducted in Winston Salem, North Carolina. Each party waives the right to a jury trial and to participate in any class action.
18. Apple-Specific Terms
As the App is distributed through the Apple App Store: these Terms are between you and the Developer only, not Apple; Apple is not responsible for the App or its content; Apple has no obligation to provide maintenance or support; in the event of any failure of the App to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple and Apple will refund the purchase price (if any), with no other warranty obligation; Apple is not responsible for addressing any claims relating to the App; and Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms with the right to enforce them against you.
