You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account. You agree to provide accurate information and keep it up to date.

For information about how we handle your personal data, please see our Privacy Policy.

5. Subscriptions & Payments

Salūs offers free content (sounds, tools, live streams, reading) and a Premium subscription that unlocks guided sessions, the 7-Day Mindfulness Course, and Applied Psychology articles. Web subscriptions are billed securely by Stripe; app subscriptions are billed by the Apple App Store or Google Play. Subscriptions auto-renew unless cancelled.

Cancellation: You can cancel at any time. If you subscribed on the web, use Manage Subscription in your account dashboard (our Stripe billing portal); if you subscribed in the app, cancel through Apple / Google Play. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period.

Your right to cancel (cooling-off period): Under the Consumer Contracts (Information, Cancellation and Additional Charges) Regulations 2013, you have the right to cancel your subscription within 14 days of purchase for a full refund, without giving any reason. To exercise this right, contact us at salus@salus-rooms.com. We will process your refund within 14 days using the same payment method.

Refunds outside the cooling-off period: Refund requests made after the 14-day cooling-off period will be considered on a case-by-case basis. Contact us and we will do our best to help.

6. Acceptable Use

You agree not to:

• Use automated tools, bots, scrapers, or crawlers to access or extract content from the site without our written permission
• Reproduce, distribute, publicly display, or create derivative works from our content without written permission
• Attempt to interfere with, compromise, or disrupt the service or its infrastructure
• Use the service for any unlawful purpose or in violation of any applicable laws
• Impersonate any person or entity, or misrepresent your affiliation with any person or entity
• Circumvent, disable, or interfere with any security features of the service

7. Our Intellectual Property

This section is about the content we make. The audio, text, graphics, video and software that we publish on Salūs is owned by Salus Studios Ltd or its licensors and is protected by copyright law. You may not reproduce, distribute, or create derivative works from our content without written permission, and our content remains our intellectual property.

This section does not apply to anything you make yourself. Content you create is covered by Section 8, and we claim no ownership of it.

8. Your Own Content, and Posting Your Video to TikTok

Salūs Sleep lets you connect your own TikTok account and post your own video from your own device to your own TikTok profile. Your video is yours, and it stays yours.

• You keep every right in it. A video you choose to share, and the caption you write with it, remain entirely your intellectual property. We claim no ownership of it, and you grant us no licence to use, display, copy, edit or republish it.
• We do not store it. You pick the file on your own device. When you press Post, the video passes through our server to TikTok and is not saved, altered, edited, watermarked or branded by us. We keep no copy of the video or the caption.
• Nothing leaves your device until you press Post. Choosing a file only previews it in your own browser.
• It goes to your own TikTok profile, using the settings you choose on the posting screen: who can see it, whether comments, Duet and Stitch are allowed, and any disclosure of promotional or branded content.
• You confirm the video is yours to post. You must have created it, or otherwise have the right to post it, and it must not infringe anyone else's rights or break the law.
• Once it is on TikTok, TikTok's terms apply to it, including TikTok's Music Usage Confirmation and, where relevant, TikTok's Branded Content Policy.
• You can disconnect at any time. Use Disconnect TikTok in your account dashboard or in the posting panel. Disconnecting asks TikTok to cancel our access immediately and removes the connection from our records. Deleting your Salūs account does the same. Videos already posted to TikTok are unaffected, and you remove those in TikTok itself.

You are responsible for the content you post. We may withdraw access to the posting feature from an account that uses it unlawfully or in breach of Section 6.

9. Health Disclaimer

Salūs is not a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. If you have a medical or mental health condition, consult your healthcare provider before using our wellness tools or breathing exercises. Please read our full Health Disclaimer for important safety information.

10. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law:

• Salūs is provided on an "as available" basis. We do not guarantee that the service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of harmful components.
• We are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising from your use of the service.
• Our total liability to you for any claim arising from or related to the service shall not exceed the total amount you have paid to us in the 12 months preceding the claim, or £50, whichever is greater.

Nothing in these terms excludes or limits our liability for: death or personal injury caused by our negligence; fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; or any other liability that cannot be excluded or limited under English law, including your statutory rights under the Consumer Rights Act 2015. Where you use Salūs as a consumer, you have legal rights that cannot be overridden by these terms. For advice about your legal rights, contact your local Citizens Advice Bureau or Trading Standards office.

11. Third-Party Links & Services

Salūs may contain links to third-party websites or services (including Stripe, Apple, Google Play, Spotify and TikTok). We are not responsible for the content, privacy practices, or availability of any third-party sites. Your use of third-party services is at your own risk and subject to their terms and policies.

TikTok: connecting your TikTok account and posting a video to it are optional, and you carry them out through TikTok's own login and its own publishing service. They are governed by TikTok's Terms of Service and TikTok's Privacy Policy as well as these terms. Salus Studios Ltd is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or acting on behalf of TikTok.

12. Suspension & Termination

We may suspend or terminate your access to Salūs if you breach these terms or use the service in a way that could harm the service, other users, or us. Where possible, we will give you reasonable notice and an opportunity to remedy any breach before termination.

On termination, your right to use the service ceases immediately. We will handle your data in accordance with our Privacy Policy, including the data retention periods stated there.

13. Force Majeure

We are not liable for any failure or delay in performing our obligations where such failure or delay results from circumstances beyond our reasonable control, including but not limited to: natural disasters, internet or hosting outages, power failures, government actions, pandemics, or cyber attacks.

14. Changes to Terms

We may update these terms from time to time. For material changes, we will provide reasonable notice via email (if you have an account) or by posting a prominent notice on the website. Continued use of the service after the notice period constitutes acceptance of the updated terms. If you do not agree to the changes, you should stop using the service.

15. Dispute Resolution

If you have a dispute with us, please contact us first at salus@salus-rooms.com so we can try to resolve it informally. Most concerns can be resolved quickly this way. If we cannot resolve the matter informally, you may seek advice from Citizens Advice about alternative dispute resolution (ADR) options available to you. We are not currently a member of a certified ADR scheme but will engage in good faith with any ADR process. Either party may also pursue their legal rights as set out in Section 17.

16. Severability

If any provision of these terms is found to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, that provision shall be enforced to the maximum extent permissible, and the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect.

17. Governing Law & Jurisdiction

These terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of England and Wales. Any disputes arising from or in connection with these terms shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales. If you are a consumer, you may also bring proceedings in the courts of the country where you live.
