IKARI Terms of Use

Last updated: 20 August 2026

1. The agreement

By using IKARI you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, do not use it.

IKARI is provided by IKARI LLC, Portland, Oregon. Contact: support@ikariapp.org

2. What IKARI is

A private journal and mental-training app for young athletes and students. You write things down. The app shows you prompts, readings, guided programs and short routines, all stored and displayed on your own device.

3. Who can use it

You must be 13 or older.

If you are under 18, a parent or guardian must read and agree to these terms on your behalf, and we encourage you to tell them you are using it.

4. What it costs

IKARI is a paid subscription with a free trial period.

IKARI LLC is the seller. Payment is processed by our payment processor, Stripe. Your card number goes to them and never reaches us; we do not see it or store it. IKARI is not sold through the Apple App Store or Google Play, and no app store handles your payment, your renewal, or your refund. If you need anything about a charge, the right place — and the only place with a record of it — is us.

Automatic renewal, stated plainly:

• Your subscription renews automatically at the end of each period, at the

price shown when you bought it, charged to the card you used, until you cancel.

• A monthly subscription renews every month. An annual subscription renews every

twelve months.

• You can cancel at any time, from inside the app, in one step, and you keep

your access until the end of the period you already paid for. We will not ask you to email us, call anybody, or explain why.

• Your trial does not require a card. If you never subscribe, nothing is charged.

If you cancel or your subscription lapses, you can still open the app and export everything you have written, permanently and for free. Your writing is not held hostage to a payment.

Refunds: contact us at support@ikariapp.org and we will deal with it like adults.

5. What IKARI is not

This matters more than anything else on this page.

### ⚠️ READ THIS PART IKARI IS NOT A MEDICAL DEVICE, A MENTAL HEALTH SERVICE, A THERAPY, A DIAGNOSIS, OR A SUBSTITUTE FOR PROFESSIONAL CARE. IT DOES NOT TREAT, CURE, PREVENT, OR MONITOR ANY CONDITION. IT IS NOT MEDICAL, NUTRITIONAL, PSYCHOLOGICAL, OR TRAINING ADVICE. IT IS NOT AN EMERGENCY SERVICE. DO NOT DELAY OR AVOID SEEKING PROFESSIONAL HELP BECAUSE OF ANYTHING YOU READ IN THIS APP.

It is not medical, nutritional, or training advice. It does not tell you what your body can do. It does not prescribe exercises, sets, durations, diets, meal plans, or weight targets, and you should be skeptical of anything that does.

It is not an emergency service. If you are in crisis or someone is in danger, contact your local emergency number or a crisis line. In the US you can call or text 988.

We make no promises about outcomes. Nothing here claims it will improve your performance, your grades, your recovery, your results, or how you feel. Content is labeled with the strength of the evidence behind it precisely so you can judge it yourself, and some of it is explicitly labeled as one coach's opinion.

Always consult qualified people — your doctor, your athletic trainer, a registered dietitian, your coach — before acting on anything you read here that touches your body or your health.

6. Your content

What you write is yours. We claim no ownership of it and no license to use it.

We also never receive it. It is stored on your device. See the Privacy Policy.

You are responsible for keeping your own backups. The app provides an export tool for this. If you lose or wipe your device without a backup, your writing is gone permanently and we cannot recover it, because we never had a copy.

7. Acceptable use

Do not use IKARI to break the law, and do not try to reverse engineer, resell, or redistribute the app or its content. The written content, programs and design are ours and are not licensed for reuse.

8. Availability

We may update, change, or discontinue the app. We will try to give reasonable notice before discontinuing it, and to make sure you can export your data first.

9. Warranties and liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IKARI IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE", WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. WE SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIM ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE APP WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR THAT ANY CONTENT IN IT IS ACCURATE OR SUITABLE FOR YOU.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IKARI LLC IS NOT LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF DATA, PROFITS, OR GOODWILL, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO YOUR USE OF IKARI. WHERE LIABILITY CANNOT BE EXCLUDED, OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS IS LIMITED TO THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US IN THE TWELVE MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM AROSE.

Some states do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties or the limitation of certain damages, so parts of the above may not apply to you. Nothing here limits liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, or for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, where the law does not allow that limit.

10. Governing law and jurisdiction

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Oregon, without regard to its conflict of law principles. Subject to section 10.1, any legal action or proceeding arising under these Terms shall be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Multnomah County, Oregon, and you consent to personal jurisdiction there.

10.1 Arbitration and class action waiver

Please read this section carefully. It affects how disputes between us are resolved.

Except as set out below, any dispute or claim arising out of or relating to these Terms or your use of IKARI shall be resolved by binding arbitration on an individual basis, rather than in court. You and IKARI LLC each waive the right to a jury trial and the right to bring or participate in a class action or class-wide arbitration.

Two exceptions, which apply to both of us equally:

• Small claims. Either of us may bring an individual claim in small claims

court instead, if it qualifies.

• You can opt out. If you send an email to support@ikariapp.org with the

subject "arbitration opt-out" within 30 days of first agreeing to these Terms, this section 10.1 does not apply to you, and nothing else about your subscription changes. We will not ask you why.

We pay for the arbitration. IKARI LLC will pay all filing, administration and arbitrator fees for any individual claim you bring, whatever the outcome. If we are the one bringing the claim, we pay them anyway.

Where it happens. Arbitration is administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Consumer Arbitration Rules. A claim of $25,000 or less is decided on documents alone unless you ask for a hearing. Any hearing takes place where you live, or by telephone or video if you prefer, and never requires you to travel to Oregon.

How you start one, and the thirty days before it. Write to support@ikariapp.org describing the problem and what you want. Neither of us may begin arbitration for 30 days after that, because most of what reaches this point is a refund and an apology, and neither needs a forum.

What survives. If the class-action waiver in this section is held unenforceable as to any claim, that claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, and the rest of these Terms stand. Nothing here prevents either party from seeking injunctive relief for infringement of intellectual property rights, from reporting anything to a government agency, or from exercising any right that cannot be waived by law.

11. Changes

We may update these terms. If we make a material change we will say so in the app rather than silently updating the date.
