Plain.

Use Whayle, agree to these. They're written like a person wrote them, because one did. No dark patterns, no auto-renewals, no fine-print traps.

Section 01

Acceptance

By creating an account or using Whayle, you agree to these terms. If you don't agree with any part, don't use the app. Whayle is currently in closed beta and access is by email invite.

Section 02

What Whayle is

A social fitness tracker. For your group, not strangers.

You log food and training, your pod sees it. Calorie and macro targets are calculated automatically. AI estimates nutrition from text or a photo. The pod leaderboard scores you weekly. That's the product.

Section 03

Your account

  • You sign in with a Google account or email and password.
  • You're responsible for keeping your credentials safe and for everything that happens under your account.
  • The information you provide should be accurate. The targets only work if your stats are real.
  • You must be at least 13 years old.
  • You can delete your account at any time from profile settings. The delete is permanent and removes all your data.
Section 04

Acceptable use

Don't use Whayle to:

  • Do anything illegal.
  • Harass, bully, or threaten other users through pods, messages, or any feature.
  • Try to access other people's accounts or data.
  • Reverse-engineer, scrape, or abuse the API or backend.
  • Upload misleading content, spam, or anything you don't have the right to share.
  • Damage, disable, or degrade the service for other users.

We can suspend or close accounts that break these. We try to give a heads-up first, except in obvious cases.

Section 05

AI features + nutrition estimates

The AI food search, photo snap, multi-component plate parser, and AI coach are powered by Anthropic's Claude. Everything they output is an estimate, not a prescription.

  • Calories and macros vary with portion, brand, preparation, and ingredient swaps.
  • The AI guesses, you verify. Tap "customize" on any snap to edit before saving.
  • Whayle is not a substitute for a doctor, dietician, or trainer.
  • If you have allergies, medical conditions, or specific dietary needs, talk to a qualified professional.
Section 06

Health disclaimer

Whayle calculates calorie and macro targets using the Mifflin-St Jeor formula and your selected goal. These are general guidelines, not a medical plan. We're a software product, not a healthcare provider.

  • Talk to a doctor before starting a new diet or training programme, especially if you have an existing condition.
  • Whayle is not responsible for any health outcome from following the targets, AI suggestions, or coach replies.
  • The AI Coach gives general fitness information based on your logged data. It is not a personal trainer or a clinician.
Section 07

Pods + social

  • When you join a pod, your name, profile photo, daily progress, weight check-ins, training sessions, and streak are visible to the other members.
  • You choose which pods to join, and you can leave any pod at any time. Leaving removes your data from that pod's leaderboard.
  • The pod creator can rename, manage, and delete the pod.
  • We can remove pods or accounts that violate these terms or abuse the social features.
Section 08

Push notifications + emails

If you opt in to push notifications, you may receive: streak alerts, goal milestones, pod nudges, weekly battle results, water reminders, and a Sunday recap. You can disable them in app settings or in your OS / browser permissions.

If you log at least once in a week, you may receive a weekly summary email. You can opt out by replying with "unsubscribe" or by emailing whayleapp@gmail.com.

Section 09

Intellectual property

The Whayle name, logo, design system, and codebase belong to Whayle. You can't copy, modify, or redistribute the app or its assets without permission. Your own content (food logs, training, profile data) belongs to you. We claim no ownership over what you log.

Section 10

Service availability

We aim to keep Whayle running, but we can't guarantee uninterrupted service. We may:

  • Run maintenance that briefly affects availability.
  • Modify, replace, or discontinue features. We'll tell you in the app before any major change.
  • Suspend or close accounts that violate these terms.
  • Rate-limit AI features per user and per IP to keep costs sane during the beta.
Section 11

Limitation of liability

Whayle is provided "as is", without warranties of any kind, express or implied. To the maximum extent permitted by law, we're not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages from your use of the app. This includes, but is not limited to, damages relating to health outcomes, lost data, or service interruptions. Whayle is a beta product. Don't make irreversible decisions based solely on what it tells you.

Section 12

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms from time to time. Continued use after changes counts as acceptance. If we change anything material, we'll notify you in the app before it takes effect. The "Updated" date at the top reflects the most recent revision.

Section 13

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of India. Any disputes are subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Delhi.

Section 14
