Terms of Service

Effective Date: 16 February 2026

Last Updated: 16 February 2026

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of the Catever mobile application ("App"), operated by Catever ("we," "us," or "our"). By downloading, installing, or using Catever, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the App.

These Terms are between you and Catever only, and not with Apple Inc. ("Apple"). Catever, not Apple, is solely responsible for the App and its content.

Please also review our Privacy Policy at catever.app/privacy, which explains how we collect, use, and protect your information.

1. Eligibility

You must be at least 13 years old to use Catever (or 16 years old if you are located in the European Economic Area). By using the App, you represent that you meet these age requirements. If you are under 18, you represent that your parent or legal guardian has reviewed and agreed to these Terms on your behalf.

2. Description of Service

Catever is an AI-powered iOS app that gives your cat a unique personality, voice, and creative life. You upload photos of your cat, answer personality questions, and the App creates an AI character that can chat, generate AI photos and animations, and read what your cat is thinking through your camera.

2.1 Features

2.2 Data Storage

Your cat profile, photos, AI-generated content, chat history, and scan results are stored on our servers to provide the service. App settings, widget cache, and voice audio cache are stored locally on your device. For full details, see our Privacy Policy.

3. Your Account

Catever uses Sign in with Apple as the sole authentication method. You do not need to provide an email address, create a password, or share your name. Your identity within the App is established through an anonymous identifier derived from your Apple Account.

You are responsible for maintaining the security of your Apple ID and your device. We are not liable for any unauthorized use of the App through your device or Apple ID.

4. License

We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use Catever on your personal iOS devices for personal purposes, subject to these Terms. This license does not include the right to:

5. User Content and Ownership

5.1 Your Ownership

You retain full ownership of all content you create or upload in Catever, including your cat photos. You also retain ownership of AI-generated content derived from your input, including AI portraits, animations, chat messages, scanned thoughts, mood cards, and voice audio.

5.2 License to Process and Store

By using Catever, you grant us a limited, non-exclusive license to:

This license terminates when you delete your account and all associated data is removed from our servers.

5.3 Similarity of AI Output

AI-generated content is produced algorithmically. Different users providing similar input may receive similar or identical output. You acknowledge that AI-generated content is not guaranteed to be unique, and you do not acquire exclusive rights to any AI output.

5.4 Content Deletion and Recovery

Your content is stored on our servers. You can delete individual items within the App, or delete your entire account through Profile > Delete Account, which permanently removes all associated data from our servers. Deleted content cannot be recovered. We recommend saving any AI-generated images or animations you wish to keep to your device's photo library before deleting.

6. AI Features — Disclaimers and Limitations

6.1 Entertainment Purpose

Catever is designed for entertainment. AI-generated thoughts, moods, chat responses, and personality readings are fictional and algorithmically generated. They do not represent your cat's actual thoughts, emotions, medical state, or behavior. Do not use Catever as a substitute for veterinary advice, behavioral assessment, or animal care guidance.

6.2 No Accuracy Guarantee

AI features, including scan, chat, image generation, animation, and voice synthesis, rely on third-party artificial intelligence models. AI-generated content may contain errors, inaccuracies, or unexpected results. We do not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, reliability, or quality of any AI-generated content.

6.3 Image Generation

AI-generated images and animations are approximations based on your cat's uploaded photos and the selected prompt. Results may vary in quality, likeness, and accuracy. We do not guarantee that AI-generated images will perfectly represent your cat's appearance.

6.4 Third-Party AI Providers

We utilize external AI providers to power our features. Each provider has their own privacy policy and terms governing how they handle data:

ProviderFeaturesPrivacy Policy
OpenAIChat, scan analysis, voice synthesis (TTS)openai.com/policies/row-privacy-policy
Google (Gemini)Image generationpolicies.google.com/privacy
fal.aiImage generation, animationfal.ai/privacy

We access all AI providers through their API services, which by default do not use API customer data for model training. We do not enable any settings that would allow providers to train on your content.

Providers may change as we improve our service. This list will be updated accordingly.

6.5 Availability

AI features require an active internet connection and are dependent on the availability of third-party providers. We do not guarantee that AI features will be available at all times. Features may be temporarily unavailable due to maintenance, outages, or changes by third-party providers.

7. Cat Photos and Camera Use

7.1 Photo Ownership and Rights

By uploading photos to Catever, you represent that you own the photos or have the right to use them. Do not upload photos that infringe the intellectual property rights of others, such as professional pet photography you did not take or do not have permission to use.

7.2 Camera Use

The Scan feature uses your device's camera to capture images of your cat for AI analysis. These images may be sent to third-party AI providers for processing. You are responsible for ensuring that your use of the camera feature complies with applicable laws and respects the privacy of others who may be captured in the frame.

7.3 Sensitive Content

Avoid capturing or uploading images containing sensitive personal information (such as documents, ID cards, screens with private data, or other people's faces) as these may be processed by third-party AI providers.

8. Prohibited Uses

You agree not to use Catever to:

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your access if we determine, in our sole discretion, that you have violated these prohibited uses.

After cancellation, your content remains on our servers. You revert to the Free tier with daily usage limits.

9.5 Free Trials

If a free trial is offered, the unused portion of any free trial period will be forfeited when you purchase a subscription. Trial eligibility is determined by Apple and may not be available to all users. Trial users receive a limited allocation of Sparks, which are cleared when the trial ends.

9.6 Refunds

Refund requests should be directed to Apple, as all transactions are processed through the App Store. You may request a refund from Apple at reportaproblem.apple.com.

Sparks are in-app credits used to generate AI content within the App. The specific features requiring Sparks and the cost per generation are displayed within the App.

When you use Sparks, your weekly allocation is consumed first. Purchased Sparks are only used after your weekly allocation is exhausted.

Sparks are non-transferable between accounts and cannot be exchanged for cash. Purchased Sparks are non-refundable, except as required by applicable law or Apple's refund policies.

10.6 Cancellation of Pro Subscription

If you cancel your Pro subscription, you lose your weekly Spark allocation. Any remaining purchased Sparks stay in your account and can still be used under Free tier limits.

10.7 Modifications

We may modify the Sparks system, including the allocation amounts, pricing, and which features require Sparks, at any time.
