Last Updated: April 21, 2026

These Terms and Conditions ("Terms") apply to the Meadow app (the "Application" or "Meadow"), a mobile service provided by The Manhattan App Studio LLC, a New York limited liability company ("Service Provider", "we", "us", "our"). The Application is offered as a freemium service to users.

By downloading, installing, or using the Application, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, do not download or use the Application.

1. License and Usage

Subject to your compliance with these Terms, the Service Provider grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to download, install, and use Meadow on a device that you own or control, solely for your personal, non-commercial use.

You may not:

copy, modify, translate, or create derivative works of the Application;
reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the Application except where applicable law prohibits such a restriction;
rent, lease, lend, sell, sublicense, or otherwise transfer the Application;
remove or alter any proprietary notices in the Application;
use the Application to develop a competing product; or
use the Application in violation of any applicable law or third-party right.

All intellectual property rights in and to the Application, including text, graphics, illustrations, journey content, exercise prompts, assessments, logos, and trademarks, remain the sole property of the Service Provider and its licensors.

2. Data and Privacy

Meadow collects and processes personal data as described in our Privacy Policy, available at https://heymeadow.com/privacy. By using the Application, you acknowledge that you have read and understood the Privacy Policy.

3. Security and Device Responsibility

You are responsible for maintaining the security of your device and your account credentials. The Service Provider is not liable for issues arising from:

jailbreaking, rooting, or other unauthorized modifications to your device or its operating system;
the loss, theft, or unauthorized use of your device;
unauthorized access to your account resulting from your failure to safeguard your credentials; or
any software, hardware, or network issues on your side.

4. Internet Connectivity

Meadow requires an internet connection to sync your data, process subscriptions, and deliver certain features. The Service Provider is not liable for any failure or degradation of the Application caused by connectivity issues, your Wi-Fi or mobile data provider, or limits imposed by your data plan. You are responsible for any data charges incurred while using the Application.

5. Data Submitted via Application

You retain all ownership rights in the content you create and submit through Meadow, including your journal entries, assessment answers, and reflections ("User Content").

You grant the Service Provider a limited, non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, store, back up, transmit, display, and process your User Content solely for the purpose of operating, securing, and providing the Application to you. This license ends when you delete the User Content or your account, except to the extent backup copies must be rotated out of our service providers' systems on their normal schedule, and except where we are required to retain information by law.

We will not sell your User Content, use it for advertising, or use it to train third-party artificial-intelligence models. See the Privacy Policy for full details on how your User Content is handled.

6. Third-Party Terms

Meadow integrates with third-party services that help us operate the Application, including Google (Firebase Authentication, Cloud Firestore), PostHog, RevenueCat, Apple (App Store, Sign in with Apple), and Google (Sign-In). Your use of those services may be governed by their own terms and privacy policies. The Service Provider is not responsible for the acts, omissions, or content of third parties.

7. Limitations of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, in no event will the Service Provider, its affiliates, officers, employees, agents, or licensors be liable to you for any indirect, incidental, special, punitive, consequential, or exemplary damages, including loss of profits, loss of data, loss of goodwill, or other intangible losses, arising out of or in connection with your use of or inability to use the Application, even if advised of the possibility of such damages.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Service Provider's total aggregate liability for any claim arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Application is limited to the greater of (a) the amount you paid the Service Provider for the Application in the twelve months preceding the claim, or (b) US $50.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain damages, so some of the above limitations may not apply to you.

8. No Warranty

THE APPLICATION IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE SERVICE PROVIDER DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. THE SERVICE PROVIDER DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE APPLICATION WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, SECURE, OR FREE OF HARMFUL COMPONENTS, OR THAT ANY RESULTS OBTAINED FROM USE OF THE APPLICATION WILL BE ACCURATE OR RELIABLE.

9. Not Medical Advice; Not a Crisis Service

Meadow is an educational self-reflection tool. It is not a medical device and is not a substitute for professional medical, psychological, or mental-health advice, diagnosis, or treatment. The content, exercises, and assessments in Meadow — including any attachment-style categorization — are for informational and educational purposes only and are not intended to diagnose or treat any condition.

Always consult a qualified professional with any questions you have about your mental or physical health.

Meadow is not a crisis service. If you are experiencing a mental-health emergency, thoughts of self-harm, or are in immediate danger, stop using the Application and contact emergency services or a crisis line:

United States: 988 (Suicide & Crisis Lifeline) or 911
Other countries: your local emergency number or an equivalent crisis service

10. Subscription Service

Meadow offers optional paid subscriptions ("Meadow Pro") that unlock premium features. Pricing, billing period, and any free trial are displayed in the Application at the time of purchase and may vary by region.

Billing. All purchases are processed by Apple through the App Store and governed by your agreement with Apple. Payment is charged to your Apple ID account at confirmation of purchase.
Auto-renewal. Unless noted otherwise, subscriptions automatically renew at the end of each billing period at the then-current rate until you cancel. Your Apple ID account is charged within 24 hours prior to the end of the current period.
Free trials. If a subscription includes a free trial, the trial automatically converts to a paid subscription at the end of the trial period unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the trial ends. Any unused portion of a free trial is forfeited when you purchase a subscription.
Canceling. You can cancel a subscription at any time in your Apple ID subscription settings (Settings → [your name] → Subscriptions). Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period; you retain access to paid features until then.
Refunds. Except where required by law, subscription fees are non-refundable. Refunds, when granted, are handled by Apple under Apple's refund policies.
Lifetime purchases. Lifetime access is a one-time purchase that grants access to Meadow Pro features for the lifetime of the Application. "Lifetime" means the useful life of the Application as offered by the Service Provider and does not guarantee availability in perpetuity.
Price changes. We may change subscription prices from time to time. Price changes take effect at the start of the next billing period following the date of the price change. Where required by law, we will obtain your consent to any price increase.

11. Updates and Modifications

The Service Provider reserves the right to update, modify, or discontinue the Application, or any feature of it, at any time and without notice. Updates may be required for the Application to continue to function properly.

12. Arbitration Agreement and Class-Action Waiver

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS.

12.1 Binding arbitration

Except as set out below, any dispute, claim, or controversy between you and the Service Provider arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Application (a "Dispute") will be resolved exclusively through final and binding individual arbitration, rather than in court. Arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its Consumer Arbitration Rules then in effect. The arbitration will be conducted in the county where you reside or, at your election, by telephone or video. The arbitrator's decision will be final and binding, and judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

12.2 Class-action waiver

YOU AND THE SERVICE PROVIDER AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. No arbitrator or judge may consolidate more than one person's claims or preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding.

12.3 Exceptions

This Section 12 does not apply to: (a) claims that may be brought in small-claims court, provided the claims remain in that court and are brought on an individual basis; (b) claims for injunctive or equitable relief relating to intellectual property; and (c) any claim that applicable law does not permit to be arbitrated.

12.4 30-day opt-out

You may opt out of this Section 12 by emailing hello@heymeadow.com within 30 days of first accepting these Terms, stating your full name, the email address associated with your account, and that you wish to opt out of arbitration. Opting out will not affect any other provision of these Terms.

13. Governing Law and Venue

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of New York, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. Subject to Section 12, any action not subject to arbitration will be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in New York County, New York, and you consent to the personal jurisdiction of those courts.

14. Termination

We may suspend or terminate your access to the Application at any time, with or without notice, if we believe you have violated these Terms, created risk or legal exposure for the Service Provider, or if we discontinue the Application. You may stop using the Application and delete your account at any time in Settings → Delete Account. Sections that by their nature are intended to survive termination will survive, including Sections 5 (as to Your User Content license for data we have lawfully retained), 7, 8, 9, 12, 13, and 15.

15. Changes to These Terms

We reserve the right to change and reissue these Terms at any time by posting an updated version in the Application or on our website. If we make material changes, we will provide reasonable advance notice before the changes take effect. Your continued use of the Application after the effective date of the updated Terms constitutes acceptance of the changes. If you do not agree to the updated Terms, you must stop using the Application.

16. Eligibility

You must be at least 16 years old to use Meadow. By using the Application you represent that you are 16 or older and that you have the authority and capacity to enter into these Terms.

18. Miscellaneous

Entire agreement. These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and any additional terms presented in the Application, constitute the entire agreement between you and the Service Provider regarding the Application.
Severability. If any provision of these Terms is held unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect, and the unenforceable provision will be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable.
No waiver. Failure by the Service Provider to enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not be a waiver of that right or provision.
Assignment. You may not assign or transfer these Terms or any rights under them without our prior written consent. We may assign these Terms, in whole or in part, to any affiliate or in connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganization, or sale of assets.
Apple Licensed Application. You acknowledge that these Terms are concluded between you and the Service Provider (not Apple), and that Apple is not responsible for the Application or its content. To the extent these Terms provide for usage rules that are less restrictive than, or conflict with, the Apple Media Services Terms of Use, the more restrictive or conflicting Apple term will apply. Apple and Apple's subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and, upon your acceptance, will have the right to enforce them against you.
California users. Under California Civil Code § 1789.3, you may contact the Complaint Assistance Unit of the Division of Consumer Services of the California Department of Consumer Affairs in writing at 1625 N. Market Blvd., Suite N 112, Sacramento, CA 95834, or by telephone at (800) 952-5210.
