Effective Date: 04/15/26
These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the Stillful mobile application (the "App") and related content provided by Mindfulness Research LLC ("Stillful," "we," "us," or "our"). The term "you" refers to the user of the App.
These Terms apply globally but certain provisions may not apply to you depending on your jurisdiction. Where local consumer protection or other laws provide mandatory rights that cannot be excluded, those rights are not affected by these Terms. Where these Terms refer to specific laws, agencies, or resources that are available only in the United States, equivalent provisions under the laws of your jurisdiction will apply.
By accessing or using Stillful, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms, please do not use the App.
Stillful provides meditation, mindfulness, and wellness content designed to support your mental wellbeing. Our content includes guided meditations, mindfulness exercises, sleep support, and related materials.
Stillful is offered as both a free, advertising-supported version and a paid subscription version ("Stillful Supporter" or the "Subscription"). Stillful Supporter is available on a monthly or annual basis and unlocks additional content, features, and an ad-free experience, as described in the App at the time of purchase. The specific features included in Stillful Supporter may change from time to time at our sole discretion, as further described in Section 9.
Important Disclaimers:
The App is intended for individuals 16 years of age or older. If you are under 16, you may only use Stillful with the involvement and consent of a parent or legal guardian. If you are a parent or legal guardian of a user under the age of majority where you live, you are subject to these Terms and responsible for your child's activity on the App.
To use certain features of the App, you may need to create an account. You agree to:
You are responsible for all activities that occur under your account.
You agree to use Stillful only for lawful, personal, non-commercial purposes. You agree NOT to:
We reserve the right to immediately terminate your access if you violate these Terms or engage in prohibited conduct.
All content, materials, features, and functionality in the App—including text, graphics, logos, audio, video, software, and design—are owned by Stillful or our licensors and are protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws.
We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access and use the App for your personal, non-commercial use only. This license does not include any right to:
Stillful, our logo, and all related product names and marks are trademarks of Mindfulness Research LLC. You may not use these trademarks without our prior written permission.
If the App allows you to submit content (such as comments, feedback, or reviews), you grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, fully paid-up, perpetual license to use, reproduce, modify, distribute, and display such content without compensation or obligation to you, and without cost to the company in connection with operating, improving and promoting the App.
You represent and warrant that any content you submit:
If you provide us with any feedback, ideas, suggestions, feature requests, or other input regarding the App or our services ("Feedback"), you acknowledge and agree that such Feedback is provided voluntarily, without expectation of compensation, and without any obligation of confidentiality.
You grant Stillful a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free, fully sublicensable right to use, reproduce, modify, incorporate, distribute, and otherwise exploit such Feedback for any purpose, including improving, developing, marketing, or operating the App, without compensation or attribution to you.
This Section 5 applies to you if you purchase Stillful Supporter or any other paid subscription offered through the App.
Stillful Supporter is offered on a recurring monthly or annual basis (each, a "Subscription Term"). For purposes of these Terms, a month is 30 calendar days and a year is 365 calendar days. The price, billing frequency, and features of each plan will be disclosed to you in the App before you complete your purchase. Prices are inclusive of value added tax ("VAT") where applicable, and may be exclusive of US sales taxes (which will be added at checkout where required by law).
From time to time, we (or the applicable app store) may offer a free trial or introductory pricing for Stillful Supporter. Eligibility for free trials is determined at our sole discretion and may be limited to one trial per user, regardless of the device, account, or payment method used. Unless you cancel before the end of the free trial or introductory period, your subscription will automatically convert to a paid Subscription at the then-current price, charged to your payment method on file. To avoid being charged, you must cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the trial or introductory period (or such other period required by the applicable app store).
By purchasing a Subscription, you acknowledge and agree that:
You may cancel your Subscription at any time. Because Subscriptions are processed by the Apple App Store or Google Play, cancellations must be made through your app store account, not through Stillful directly:
To avoid being charged for the next Subscription Term, you must cancel before the renewal date (and at least 24 hours before, where required by the applicable app store). If you cancel, you will continue to have access to Stillful Supporter for the remainder of the Subscription Term you have already paid for, after which your account will revert to the free, ad-supported version of the App.
All Subscription fees are non-refundable, except as expressly required by applicable law or as set out below. Because purchases are processed by the Apple App Store or Google Play, any refund requests are governed by their respective refund policies, and we do not control whether a refund is granted:
Cancelling a Subscription does not entitle you to a refund or pro rata credit for the unused portion of the current Subscription Term, except where required by law.
If you are a consumer located in the EEA or UK, you have a statutory right under EU and UK consumer law to withdraw from your Subscription within 14 days of the date of purchase, without giving a reason. To exercise this right, you must inform us of your decision to withdraw by an unequivocal statement sent to support@stillful.app. We will refund the purchase price, using the same means of payment as you used for the original transaction, within 14 days of receiving your withdrawal notice (subject to the app store's processing timelines).
Important: By starting to use Stillful Supporter during the 14-day withdrawal period, you expressly request that we begin providing the service immediately and acknowledge that you will lose your right of withdrawal once the service has been fully performed, in accordance with Article 16(m) of the EU Consumer Rights Directive (and equivalent UK law). To the extent the service has been partially performed during the withdrawal period, we may charge you a proportionate amount for the portion already provided.
We reserve the right to change the price of any Subscription plan, introduce new fees, or modify the features included in a Subscription at any time, at our sole discretion. If we increase the price of your Subscription, we will provide you with at least 30 days' advance notice (by email, push notification, or in-app message) before the change takes effect on your next renewal. If you do not agree to the new price, you may cancel your Subscription before the change takes effect, in which case you will not be charged the new price.
From time to time we may offer promotional codes, discounts, gift subscriptions, or special pricing. These offers are subject to the specific terms disclosed at the time of the offer, may be limited in time or quantity, may not be combined with other offers, are non-transferable, and have no cash value. We reserve the right to determine eligibility and to refuse, modify, or terminate promotions in our sole discretion, including in cases of suspected fraud or abuse.
Subscriptions are personal to you and may not be sold, transferred, shared, or assigned to any other person or entity. Each Subscription is tied to a single account.
All Subscription purchases made through the Apple App Store or Google Play are governed by the applicable app store's terms of service and payment policies, in addition to these Terms. In the event of any conflict between these Terms and the app store's terms with respect to billing, payment processing, or refunds, the app store's terms will control.
The free version of Stillful is supported by advertising. By using the free version of the App, you agree that we may display advertisements, including banner ads, video ads, and other ad formats. Users with an active Stillful Supporter Subscription will not be shown advertisements during their Subscription Term, except for promotional content relating to Stillful's own products and features.
We work with third-party advertising partners to serve advertisements in the App. These advertising partners may collect certain information about your device and App usage to provide relevant advertisements. This may include:
Our advertising partners operate under their own privacy policies. We encourage you to review their policies to understand how they collect and use your information.
You can control personalized advertising through your device settings:
You may also visit www.aboutads.info/choices or www.youronlinechoices.com for additional options to limit interest-based advertising.
To remove advertisements entirely, you can upgrade to Stillful Supporter, as described in Section 5.
We do not control, endorse, or take responsibility for:
Clicking on advertisements may take you to third-party websites or applications. Your interactions with advertisers and their content are governed by their own terms of service and privacy policies, not ours. We are not responsible for any loss, damage, or other issues arising from your dealings with third-party advertisers.
Your privacy is important to us. Our collection and use of your personal information is governed by our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference. By using Stillful, you consent to our privacy practices as described in the Privacy Policy.
Stillful's meditation and mindfulness content is provided for general wellness and educational purposes only and is not a substitute for professional medical, psychological, psychiatric, or mental health care. You should always consult a qualified healthcare provider regarding any medical or mental health concerns.
By using Stillful, you acknowledge and agree that:
You acknowledge that meditation and mindfulness practices may not be suitable for everyone. In some individuals, such practices may cause or exacerbate psychological distress, anxiety, panic, dissociation, resurfacing of traumatic memories, emotional discomfort, or other adverse effects.
Individuals with certain mental health conditions—including but not limited to post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), bipolar disorder, psychosis, severe anxiety, or depression—should consult a qualified healthcare professional before using the App.
If you experience distress, discomfort, or worsening of symptoms while using the App, you should discontinue use and seek appropriate professional support. Stillful makes no representations regarding the suitability of the App for any particular individual or condition.
You use Stillful at your own risk. You acknowledge that:
You acknowledge and agree that you will use the App and its content only in situations where you can do so safely and with appropriate attention to your surroundings.
You agree not to use the App or any audio, video, or guided content while driving, operating motor vehicles, cycling in traffic, operating machinery, supervising dependents in situations requiring constant attention, or engaging in any activity where distraction could reasonably result in injury, property damage, or harm to yourself or others.
Certain content offered through the App may involve gentle movement or walking-based practices. When engaging in such content, you are solely responsible for choosing a safe environment, maintaining awareness of your surroundings, and exercising reasonable judgment at all times.
Stillful disclaims any liability arising from your failure to use the App in a safe and attentive manner or from your use of the App in situations where distraction or inattention could result in harm.
While we strive to provide reliable service, we do not guarantee that the App will be available at all times, uninterrupted, secure, or error-free. You acknowledge and agree that the App is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis.
We may, at any time:
We may automatically download and install updates to the App. These updates may be necessary for security, functionality, or legal compliance.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, we shall not be liable for any loss, damage, or inconvenience resulting from the unavailability, interruption, suspension, or discontinuation of the App or any part of the service.
The App may contain links to third-party websites, services, or content. These are provided for your convenience only. We do not endorse or control third-party sites and are not responsible for:
Your use of third-party services is at your own risk and subject to their terms and policies.
If you download or access the App through the Apple App Store or Google Play Store, you acknowledge and agree that:
Your use of the App must also comply with the applicable app store's terms of service and policies.
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, STILLFUL IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED.
We disclaim all warranties, including but not limited to:
No advice or information obtained from us or through the App creates any warranty not expressly stated in these Terms.
Some jurisdictions do not allow certain warranty disclaimers, so some of these limitations may not apply to you.
If you are a consumer in the EEA, UK, Australia, or New Zealand, you have statutory rights and consumer guarantees that cannot be excluded, restricted, or modified by these Terms, including guarantees relating to the quality and fitness of the App. Nothing in these Terms is intended to limit or exclude those rights. We provide the App using reasonable skill and care, and if we fail to meet the quality level described in applicable consumer protection law, we will work with you to resolve the issue.
10.1 Accessibility
We strive to make the App accessible to all users and to improve accessibility over time. However, we do not guarantee that the App or any content will be fully accessible or compatible with all assistive technologies, devices, or configurations at all times.
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW:
We will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including but not limited to:
This applies regardless of the legal theory (contract, tort, negligence, or otherwise) and even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.
We shall have no liability for any acts, omissions, failures, or interruptions caused by third-party services, platforms, or infrastructure providers, including app stores, hosting providers, or network services.
Our total aggregate liability to you for all claims arising from or relating to the App shall not exceed the greater of:
These liability limitations are fundamental to our agreement. Without them, we would not provide the App on these terms.
Some jurisdictions do not allow certain liability limitations, so some of these limitations may not apply to you.
Any claim, cause of action, or dispute arising out of or relating to the App or these Terms must be brought within one (1) year after the claim first arises, or such claim is permanently barred, to the fullest extent permitted by law.
Nothing in these Terms limits or excludes liability where such limitation or exclusion is prohibited by applicable law, including liability that cannot be limited under consumer protection laws in certain jurisdictions.
For users in the EEA and UK: We are responsible for loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of our breach of these Terms or our failure to use reasonable skill and care, but we are not responsible for unforeseeable loss or damage. Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or for any other liability that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law.
For users in Australia and New Zealand: Our goods and services come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under Australian Consumer Law or the New Zealand Consumer Guarantees Act. Nothing in these Terms purports to modify or exclude conditions, warranties, or guarantees implied by those laws, or to limit our liability in ways prohibited by those laws.
We do not guarantee the retention, availability, or preservation of any usage data, logs, or information associated with your use of the App.
We make no representation or warranty that we maintain insurance coverage for any claims arising out of or related to your use of the App.
All rights not expressly granted to you under these Terms are reserved by Stillful.
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Stillful and its officers, directors, employees, and agents from any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from:
We reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to assume control of the defense, choice of counsel, and settlement of any claim subject to indemnification by you, and you agree to cooperate fully with such defense.
You may stop using the App at any time by deleting it from your device and discontinuing access.
Important: Deleting the App from your device or deleting your Stillful account does not automatically cancel an active Subscription. Because Subscriptions are billed through the Apple App Store or Google Play, you must cancel through your app store account as described in Section 5.4 to stop future renewal charges. Failure to cancel through the app store will result in continued billing.
We make no representations or guarantees regarding any expectations, outcomes, results, or experiences associated with continued or discontinued use of the App.
We may suspend or terminate your access to the App at any time, with or without notice, for:
For users in the EEA and UK: We will only suspend or terminate your access to the App where you have materially or repeatedly breached these Terms, where we are required to do so by law or court order, or where we reasonably believe your conduct creates possible liability or risk of harm. We will provide you with written notice (email is sufficient) upon any suspension or termination, along with the reasons for our decision, unless we are prevented from doing so by law.
Upon termination:
This Section 15 (Dispute Resolution), including the binding arbitration agreement and class action waiver, applies only to users located in the United States. If you are located outside the United States, disputes will be resolved as described in Section 15.8 below.
Before filing any arbitration or legal claim, you agree to first contact us at [email protected] with a written description of the dispute, including your name, account email, and the specific relief sought.
Within thirty (30) days of receiving such notice, you and Stillful agree to attempt resolution through informal negotiation, which may include a telephone or video conference if either party requests one. The statute of limitations and any filing fee deadlines shall be tolled during this informal resolution period.
If the dispute is not resolved within thirty (30) days, either party may proceed to arbitration as described below. Completion of this informal resolution process is a mandatory prerequisite to initiating arbitration.
PLEASE READ CAREFULLY - THIS AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS
Except where prohibited by law, any dispute arising from or relating to these Terms or your use of the App will be resolved through binding arbitration rather than in court. This includes disputes related to privacy, data security, or intellectual property.
Key Points:
You or we may still:
You may opt out of this arbitration agreement by sending written notice to 30 N Gould St Ste N, Sheridan, WY 82801 US within 30 days of first accepting these Terms. Your notice must include your name, address, email, and a clear statement that you wish to opt out of the arbitration agreement.
WHERE PERMITTED BY LAW, YOU AND STILLFUL AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION.
If this class action waiver is found invalid or unenforceable, the entire arbitration agreement is void, and disputes will be resolved in court as specified below.
If arbitration does not apply, these Terms are governed by the laws of Wyoming, without regard to conflict of law principles. Any litigation will be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Sheridan County, Wyoming, and you consent to the jurisdiction of those courts.
If twenty-five (25) or more similar demands for arbitration are asserted against Stillful by the same or coordinated counsel, or are otherwise coordinated ("Coordinated Claims"), the AAA's procedures and fee schedules for mass arbitrations shall apply. Coordinated Claims shall be resolved by written submissions alone, without live witness testimony, unless the arbitrator determines otherwise. You acknowledge that resolution of Coordinated Claims may require additional time.
For users in the EEA and UK: These Terms and your relationship with Stillful are governed by the laws of your country of residence, and you may file legal disputes in your local courts. Nothing in these Terms limits your rights as a consumer under the mandatory consumer protection laws of your country. If you are an EEA-based consumer, the European Commission offers an Online Dispute Resolution platform at https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr, which we accept if required by law.
For users in Canada: These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the province or territory in which you reside and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein. Any disputes arising out of or relating to these Terms or your use of the App may be brought in the courts of the province or territory in which you reside.
For users in Australia and New Zealand: These Terms are governed by the laws of the state or territory (for Australian users) or country (for New Zealand users) in which you reside. Any disputes arising out of or relating to these Terms may be brought in the courts of that jurisdiction. Nothing in these Terms excludes, restricts, or modifies rights or remedies that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law (Schedule 2 of the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth)) or the New Zealand Consumer Guarantees Act 1993.
For Subscription purchases, the right of withdrawal for consumers in the EEA and UK is set out in Section 5.6 above, which governs in case of any inconsistency. For any other paid features or one-time purchases that may be offered through the App in the future, consumers in the EEA and UK have a legal right to cancel the purchase and receive a full refund within 14 days of the date of purchase, by contacting us at support@stillful.app with an unequivocal statement of their decision to withdraw. This right may be lost where the service has been fully performed during the withdrawal period with the consumer's express consent.
These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and Stillful regarding the App and supersede any prior agreements.
We may update these Terms from time to time. If we make material changes, we will notify you by:
Your continued use of the App after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.
For users in the EEA and UK: We will provide at least 30 days' advance notice of any material changes to these Terms, except for updates that address new features, or in urgent situations such as for compliance or safety reasons. If you do not agree to the updated Terms, you may terminate your use of the App before the changes take effect.
Our failure to enforce any provision of these Terms does not constitute a waiver of that provision or any other provision.
You may not assign or transfer these Terms or your account without our prior written consent. We may assign or transfer these Terms and our rights and obligations at any time without notice to you.
These Terms do not create any third-party beneficiary rights except as expressly stated.
We are not liable for any failure or delay in performance resulting from circumstances beyond our reasonable control, including but not limited to acts of God, natural disasters, fire, flood, earthquake, pandemics or public health emergencies, war, terrorism, civil unrest, labor disputes, governmental actions, platform or third-party service outages
By using Stillful, you consent to receive electronic communications from us, including notices, agreements, and other information. You agree that electronic communications satisfy any legal requirement for written communications.
