Terms of Service for PetList

Effective Date: October 3, 2026

1. Acceptance of Terms

By downloading, installing, or using PetList ("the app"), you agree to these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, do not use the app. By using PetList, you represent that you are of legal age to accept these terms in your jurisdiction, or that you have a parent's or guardian's permission to do so.

2. About PetList

PetList is an organizational tool for tracking pet and household information: pet profiles, health-event history, reminders, weight tracking, daily care tasks, and expenses. Grouping pets into a "household" is an organizational feature within the app on your device - it does not sync or share information between different people's devices. PetList does not provide household sync or a user account. It also offers two optional features that use outside services: a Home Base location picker, and Pet ID, which publishes the recovery details you choose to a public page (see sections 5 and 9).

3. Not Veterinary Advice

PetList is not a veterinary or medical service. Nothing in the app, including its reminders, due-date calculations, or any record or summary it displays, constitutes veterinary advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Reminders and summaries reflect only the information you enter; PetList does not verify that any schedule or record is appropriate for your pet's actual health needs. Always consult a qualified veterinarian regarding your pet's health and medical care, and do not treat information generated by PetList as a substitute for professional veterinary advice.

4. Your Data and Responsibilities

You are responsible for the accuracy of the information you enter into PetList. As described in the Privacy Policy, your care records (pet profiles, health records, reminders, expenses, daily tasks, and photos) are stored locally on your device. Except for the specific Pet ID recovery details you explicitly choose to publish, PetList does not maintain a cloud copy of your household and care database. PetList's backup feature lets you create your own backup file and restore from it, but keeping and safeguarding that file is your responsibility; a backup file is not encrypted and includes your Pet ID contact details and update keys. Because PetList does not hold a copy of those records, it cannot recover data that is lost without a backup you made yourself.

5. Pet ID and Public Information

Pet ID is optional. When you create one, the details you choose to include are published to a hosted public page, reachable through a QR code and link that are designed to be readable by anyone who has them, without signing in or using PetList. You decide what to include, and you are responsible for publishing only information you are entitled and willing to make public, including any phone number or email address that belongs to someone else. Do not include information you do not want a finder, or anyone the link is passed to, to see.

Updating your pet's details in PetList updates the published page, and deleting a Pet ID asks for its removal, which completes only when the app can reach the service (see the Privacy Policy). Pet ID is a convenience for reuniting lost pets with their owners; PetList does not guarantee that the page will be available, that a finder will see or act on it, or that a lost pet will be found. Do not use Pet ID to publish unlawful, abusive, or misleading content or other people's information without their permission.

6. License to Use PetList

Subject to these terms, PetList grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and use the app on devices you own or control, for lawful pet-care and household-organization purposes - including as an individual owner, foster caregiver, pet sitter, or small rescue organizing animals in your care.

7. Acceptable Use

You agree not to:

• Reverse-engineer, decompile, or disassemble the app, except to the extent applicable law expressly permits despite this restriction
• Use the app for any unlawful purpose
• Attempt to interfere with the app's operation or security

8. Intellectual Property

PetList, including its design, code, artwork, and branding, is owned by Harley Canasa and protected by applicable intellectual property laws. These terms do not grant you any ownership interest in the app itself. You retain all rights to the content you enter into PetList, such as pet names, notes, and photos.

9. Third-Party Services and App Stores

PetList may be distributed through third-party app stores, such as the Apple App Store and Google Play. Your use of that store, and your purchase or download of PetList through it, is also governed by that store's own applicable terms.

Some optional features rely on third-party services: Mapbox and Geoapify for the Home Base map, place search, and address lookup, and Firebase and Google, with Apple App Attest or Google Play Integrity, for Pet ID. Expo provides app updates. These services operate under their own terms and privacy policies, and PetList does not control their availability or accuracy. Map and address results may be inaccurate or unavailable.

10. Availability and Changes

PetList is currently offered as a one-time paid download rather than a subscription. Features may be added, changed, or removed over time, and the app may receive periodic updates. PetList does not guarantee uninterrupted availability of the app or of any particular feature, including features that depend on third-party services such as Home Base search and Pet ID.

11. Disclaimer of Warranties

THE APP IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT. PetList does not warrant that its reminders, records, or exported summaries are accurate, complete, or sufficient for your pet's actual care needs.

12. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Harley Canasa shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of data, arising out of or related to your use of, or inability to use, PetList - including any harm to a pet resulting from reliance on information the app displays or produces. Because your care records are stored on your device, PetList is not in a position to prevent, mitigate, or recover from their loss.

13. Termination

You may stop using PetList at any time by uninstalling it, which also removes its locally-stored data from your device. Uninstalling does not remove a published Pet ID page. If you want the hosted page removed, delete the Pet ID in the app and wait for the removal to complete before you uninstall (see the Privacy Policy). PetList has no user account system, so there is no mechanism for the developer to restrict access to a copy you have already installed; removal of PetList from an app store affects new downloads, not a copy already on your device.

14. Governing Law

These terms, and any dispute arising from them or your use of PetList, are governed by the laws of the Republic of the Philippines, without regard to its conflict-of-law principles.

15. Changes to These Terms

These terms may be updated from time to time. The current version is always published at https://mypetlist.app/terms-of-service/, and the effective date above reflects the most recent update.
