Terms of Service
Last updated: April 21, 2026
1. Introduction
These Terms of Use govern your use of the Vaava mobile application and related services provided by Novi Homines Software Oy ("Vaava", "we", "us", or "our"). By accessing or using Vaava, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, do not use the app.
Vaava is a free, local-first mobile app for family baby tracking. Optional Vaava Plus is a one-time non-consumable in-app purchase that unlocks voice dictation, OCR growth scanning, and local Wi-Fi family sync.
2. Eligibility and Responsible Use
You must be legally capable of entering into a binding agreement in your country of residence. You are responsible for supervising your own use of the tracking features and for any decisions made based on app output.
3. Free local mode
We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use Vaava for private, non-commercial family tracking purposes on supported devices.
What you can expect in Local Mode
- Use core tracking and monitor functions
- Keep data on your own devices and local device-to-device sync paths
- Export supported data where export is provided in the app
What is not included in Local Mode
- No guarantee that every feature is available on every device or OS version
- Some features may require local network conditions that are outside our control
4. Vaava Plus
Vaava Plus is a one-time non-consumable in-app purchase that unlocks voice dictation, OCR growth scanning, and local Wi-Fi family sync. There is no subscription, no auto-renewal, and no trial. Local Mode remains fully available without purchasing Vaava Plus.
Purchase and store account
Vaava Plus is purchased through the Apple App Store or Google Play and is tied to the store account that completed the purchase. Price and applicable taxes are displayed before you confirm the purchase and are subject to the platform provider's terms. We do not receive or store your payment card details. Vaava uses RevenueCat for client-side entitlement checks and same-platform restore support as described in the Privacy Policy.
Restoring your purchase
Restore is supported within the same platform: an iOS purchase can be restored on another iOS device signed in to the same Apple ID, and an Android purchase can be restored on another Android device signed in to the same Google account. Cross-platform restore between iOS and Android is not available at this time.
Refunds
Refunds for Vaava Plus are handled exclusively by Apple or Google under their respective store policies. Vaava does not issue refunds directly. Mandatory consumer refund rights under applicable law are not affected.
Local Wi-Fi family sync
Local Wi-Fi family sync requires Vaava Plus on the device that starts pairing by showing the QR code. Once paired, both devices can sync. Sync happens directly between devices over your local network and does not pass through our servers.
5. Acceptable Use
You agree not to:
- Use the app for unlawful, abusive, or harmful purposes
- Attempt unauthorized access to systems, networks, or other users' data
- Interfere with normal app or service operation
- Copy, resell, reverse engineer, or redistribute the app except where mandatory law allows
6. Intellectual Property
Vaava, including software, branding, design, and content, is owned by Novi Homines Software Oy or its licensors and protected by applicable intellectual property laws. These terms grant a right to use the service, not ownership of the software.
7. Service Changes, Suspension, and Termination
We may update, suspend, or discontinue parts of the app or service to improve quality, security, or legal compliance. We may suspend or terminate access for violations of these terms.
If you stop using the app you may delete local app data as described in our Privacy Policy. Vaava Plus features remain available as long as the in-app purchase remains valid and restorable on your store account.
8. Disclaimer and Limitation of Liability
The app is provided "as is" and "as available" to the maximum extent permitted by law. We do not guarantee uninterrupted operation or error-free performance. We do not guarantee an SLA for the dictation or OCR backend services.
To the extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or loss of data/profits arising from use of the app. Nothing in these terms limits rights that cannot be excluded under applicable consumer law.
9. Governing Law
These terms are governed by the laws of Finland, without regard to conflict-of-law principles, unless mandatory consumer law in your jurisdiction requires otherwise.
10. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms of Use from time to time. Material changes will be communicated in-app, or on the website. Continued use after changes take effect means you accept the updated terms.
