Agreement to These Terms
Welcome to Olvi. We know terms and conditions aren't the most exciting read (and sadly, reading them won't move your metabolic numbers either) — but they matter, so we've tried to make them clear.
These Terms & Conditions ("Terms") form a binding agreement between you and Serathia Inc. ("Serathia," "we," "us," or "our"), the company that builds and operates the Olvi mobile application and related services (together, the "App" or "Service"). Together with our Privacy Policy, these Terms make up the "Agreement" between you and us.
By creating an account, tapping "Accept," or otherwise using Olvi, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by this Agreement. If you do not agree with any part of it, please do not use Olvi.
We may update these Terms from time to time. If we make material changes, we will notify you (for example, by in-app notice) and update the "Last Updated" date above. Continuing to use Olvi after a change means you accept the revised Terms. If you don't agree with a change, you may stop using the App and delete your account.
How to Read These Terms
We've designed these Terms to respect your time and attention. Plain-language summaries appear in shaded "In plain language" boxes throughout — they help you understand each section quickly. The full text of each section is what legally governs, but the summaries are written to mean the same thing.
1. Our Service
Olvi is a nutrition and metabolic-health wellness application that helps you build healthier, more sustainable eating habits. Key features include:
- Photo-based meal logging. Snap a photo of your meal and Olvi uses AI to help identify foods and estimate calories and macronutrients (protein, carbohydrates, fat).
- Personalized goals. Based on the health profile you provide, Olvi generates calorie and nutrition targets and helps you see how your daily intake compares to those targets over time.
- Personalized meal plans and nutrition analysis. Olvi can suggest meal ideas and provide nutritional analysis of the foods you log, including options that reflect your cuisine and dietary preferences.
- Behavioural support. Olvi is designed around encouragement and progress rather than judgment, drawing on established behaviour-change principles.
Olvi is offered as a general wellness and educational tool. It is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, monitor, or prevent any disease or medical condition, and it is not a regulated medical device. See Section 4 (Medical Disclaimer).
2. Eligibility and Your Account
- Age requirement. You must be at least 18 years old to create an account and use Olvi. Olvi is not intended for children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18.
- Accurate information. When you sign up, provide accurate and complete information, and keep it current — especially health-profile details, since the App relies on them to generate your goals and insights.
- Account security. You are responsible for keeping your login credentials confidential and for all activity under your account. Choose a strong password and keep it private. If you suspect any unauthorized use of your account or a security breach (for example, a lost or stolen device), notify us immediately at the contact details in Section 27. We are not liable for losses arising from unauthorized use of your account where you have not safeguarded your credentials.
- One account per person. Create only one account for yourself. Do not share your account or use someone else's. We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these rules.
3. Your Health Information and Your Consent
To deliver personalized goals and insights, Olvi collects and processes personal information, including information about your diet, weight, activity, health goals, and (optionally) certain health conditions and background relevant to nutrition. Some of this is sensitive personal information.
We handle your information in accordance with applicable Canadian privacy law, including the federal Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA), Ontario's Personal Health Information Protection Act, 2004 (PHIPA) where it applies, and Québec's Act respecting the protection of personal information in the private sector (Law 25) for Québec residents.
By using Olvi, you acknowledge and agree that:
- We collect for stated purposes. We tell you the purposes for which we collect your information — primarily to provide and personalize the Service.
- We ask for active, informed consent. Before we process sensitive health information, we present a clear, just-in-time consent prompt that explains what we're collecting and why, with a link to the full details in our Privacy Policy. Your consent is opt-in, not assumed.
- You can access and correct your data. You may request access to the personal information we hold about you and ask us to correct inaccuracies.
- You can withdraw consent. You may refuse or withdraw consent at any time, subject to legal or contractual limits and reasonable notice. Withdrawing consent may mean parts of the Service no longer work for you.
- Your data stays in Canada. Olvi is built on cloud infrastructure located in Canada, and we apply security safeguards (including encryption in transit and at rest and secure cloud storage) appropriate to the sensitivity of the information.
- Breach notification. If a privacy breach involving your personal information occurs and poses a real risk of significant harm, we will notify you and the appropriate authorities as required by law.
Full details are in our Privacy Policy, which forms part of this Agreement.
4. Medical Disclaimer — Please Read
Olvi provides general wellness, educational, and behavioural support only. It does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment, and it is not a substitute for professional medical care.
- Not a medical device or clinical service. Olvi is a general wellness tool. Its insights, goals, meal suggestions, and nutritional estimates are for informational and educational purposes and are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, monitor, or prevent any disease or medical condition.
- No professional relationship. Using Olvi does not create a doctor–patient, dietitian–client, or other professional relationship between you and Serathia. Our team members are not acting as your treating clinicians through the App.
- Always consult a qualified provider. For personalized medical, nutritional, or treatment advice — particularly if you have a condition such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, an eating disorder, or any other health concern, are pregnant or breastfeeding, or take medication — consult a registered healthcare provider. Never disregard or delay seeking professional advice because of something you saw in Olvi. Use Olvi alongside professional guidance, not in place of it.
- Emergencies. Olvi is not for emergencies and cannot contact emergency services for you. If you experience a medical emergency or severe symptoms, call 911 (or your local emergency number) immediately.
- Accuracy is not guaranteed. We strive for accurate nutritional information, but calorie counts, macronutrient estimates, AI photo recognition, and food-database entries may contain errors or omissions. Estimates are approximations, not precise measurements. Use your own judgment and consult professionals when in doubt.
By using Olvi, you understand and accept this disclaimer. Please put your health and safety first.
5. AI-Generated Insights and Personalization
Olvi uses artificial intelligence and third-party data sources to identify foods from photos, estimate nutrition, generate goals, and produce meal suggestions and analysis. You acknowledge that:
- AI output is probabilistic and may be inaccurate or incomplete, including misidentifying foods, mis-estimating portions, or generating suggestions that don't suit your circumstances.
- AI-generated content is general wellness information, not medical or dietetic advice (see Section 4).
- You are responsible for reviewing AI output and applying your own judgment, and for verifying anything that matters to your health with a qualified professional.
How We Improve Olvi's AI
We continually work to improve Olvi's AI features, but we do not warrant that they will be error-free. To do that we mainly use de-identified or aggregated information. We don't let outside AI providers train their general models on your identifiable health data.
6. Membership Plans and Features
Olvi offers both free and paid subscription options. Features, usage limits, and availability vary by plan and may change from time to time as we continue improving the Service.

Billing, Auto-Renewal, Price Changes & Cancellation
Paid subscriptions automatically renew at the end of each billing period unless canceled before the next renewal date. If we offer a free trial or promotional pricing, your subscription may automatically convert to a paid subscription at the end of the trial or promotional period unless canceled beforehand. Subscription fees, features, and pricing may change from time to time. Where required by applicable law, we will provide reasonable notice of material changes affecting paid subscriptions. You may cancel your subscription at any time through your account settings or through the Apple App Store or Google Play, as applicable. Unless otherwise required by law, subscription fees are non-refundable, and cancellation will take effect at the end of the current billing period, after which your subscription will not renew.
7. Your Content and Data Rights
Your Content Is Yours
The meal logs, photos, notes, health-profile details, and other information you provide ("Your Content") remain yours. We do not claim ownership of Your Content.
You represent and warrant that you have the right to upload and share Your Content and that it does not infringe the rights of any third party.
Licence to Operate and Improve the Service
To provide, operate, secure, personalize, and improve Olvi, you grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free licence to host, store, process, analyze, reproduce, display, and use Your Content. This includes, for example:
- Storing and backing up your data.
- Analyzing nutrition and activity information.
- Identifying foods and estimating nutritional information from meal photos.
- Generating personalized goals, insights, recommendations, and coaching.
- Synchronizing your information across devices.
- Improving Olvi's features, user experience, and AI-powered capabilities.
We will use Your Content only as described in these Terms and our Privacy Policy.
Community Inspiration and De-Identified Content
To help users discover new ideas, learn from common habits, and benefit from the collective experience of the Olvi community, we may use de-identified or aggregated versions of Your Content. This may include:
- Displaying meal photos as examples, inspiration, or educational content within the App, such as "Most Logged Breakfasts This Week."
- Highlighting popular foods, meals, recipes, or nutrition trends.
- Creating research insights and improving nutrition analysis, personalization systems, and AI models.
Before using meal photos or content in community-facing features, we will take reasonable steps to remove or obscure information that could identify you, including names, faces, location information, metadata, or other personal identifiers. We will not publicly identify you or share identifiable personal or health information without your consent.
Aggregated and De-Identified Data
You acknowledge that we may create aggregated, anonymized, or de-identified datasets derived from user activity and content. Such datasets are not considered personal information where permitted by applicable law and may be used to operate, improve, research, develop, market, and support Olvi and its services.
Your Responsibility
You agree that the information you provide is truthful and accurate to the best of your knowledge. You must not upload content that:
- Is illegal, fraudulent, harmful, or misleading.
- Infringes another person's intellectual property, privacy, or other rights.
- Contains malicious software or code.
Your Results & Generated Output
When you use Olvi, the App generates personalized results from your inputs — including calorie and macronutrient breakdowns, nutrition analysis, insights, and meal plans (your "Results").
- You can use and share your Results. You receive a worldwide, royalty-free licence to use, save, export, and share the Results we generate for you, for your own personal, non-commercial purposes. This expressly includes sharing your Results with your own healthcare provider, dietitian, coach, or wellness program, and publicly, such as on social media.
- What you may not do. You may not (a) sell, license, or commercially exploit your Results; (b) remove, obscure, or alter Olvi's name, logo, or notices where they appear; (c) present your Results in a misleading way, or in any way that implies Olvi endorses you, a third party, or any product or health claim; or (d) use your Results — or systematically extract Results — to build, train, or support any product, dataset, or service that competes with Olvi.
- Estimates, not advice — and this travels with what you share. Your Results are automated estimates generated by AI and are not medical, nutritional, or professional advice (see Section 4). If you share Results with a dietitian, provider, or anyone else, they remain estimates and should be treated as such. We are not responsible for how any third party interprets, relies on, or acts on Results you choose to share.
- Our rights stay with us. While your individual Results are yours to use as described, we retain all rights in the underlying technology, models, algorithms, databases, templates, and design used to generate them.
8. Connecting with Healthcare Providers and Wellness Programs
Olvi may be offered to individuals directly and to participants invited through a wellness program partner — for example, a health system, academic institution, or public-health organization running a wellness initiative.
- Connecting is your choice. If you join through a partner, you may receive a code or link to connect your account. We only share your information — such as nutrition logs, progress summaries, or insights — with that partner if you actively choose to link your account and provide consent.
- You stay in control. You can change or revoke this connection at any time through your settings or by contacting us.
- Wellness, not clinical care. These partnerships are general wellness programs. They do not turn Olvi into a clinical, diagnostic, or treatment service, and they do not change the Medical Disclaimer in Section 4.
Details about what is shared, with whom, and for how long are set out in our Privacy Policy and in the specific consent prompt you'll see when you join.
9. Acceptable Use and Prohibited Activities
By using Olvi, you agree not to:
- Use the App for any unlawful purpose or in violation of these Terms.
- Hack, copy, reverse-engineer, decompile, disassemble, or otherwise tamper with the App's software, interfaces, workflows, or security features (except to the extent applicable law permits).
- Introduce viruses, malware, or any code intended to harm the App or other users' devices.
- Harvest or scrape data from the App, manually or by automated means, without our permission.
- Impersonate any person or entity, or submit false or misleading information.
- Interfere with, disrupt, or place an undue burden on the App or its supporting infrastructure.
- Use the App to compete with us or for any unauthorized commercial purpose.
Violating these rules may result in suspension or termination of your access, and where necessary we may report unlawful behaviour to the appropriate authorities.
10. Intellectual Property
Serathia owns or licenses all intellectual property rights in the App's software, design, and content (except Your Content). The Olvi name, logo, mascot, and related graphics and trademarks are our property. We grant you a limited, non-transferable, revocable licence to use the App for your personal, non-commercial use, as permitted by these Terms. You may not copy, distribute, modify, or create derivative works from our App or content without our permission.
Any feedback or suggestions you choose to share are optional, but if you provide them, you agree we may use them to improve the Service without any compensation or obligation to you.
11. Mobile Application License
If you access Olvi via the mobile app, we grant you a revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable, limited licence to install and use the App on a device you own or control, strictly in accordance with these Terms. You agree not to: (a) reverse-engineer, decompile, or attempt to derive the source code (except as permitted by law); (b) modify or create derivative works of the App; (c) remove proprietary notices; or (d) use the App in a way that violates applicable law or the rules of the Apple App Store or Google Play.
When you obtain the App from the Apple App Store or Google Play, you also agree to comply with that store's usage rules, and you acknowledge that the store provider is not responsible for the App or for providing support, except as required by law.
12. Third-Party Services and Content
If Olvi provides access to, integrates with, or links to third-party websites, services, devices, applications, or content — for example, nutrition databases and AI processing services — your use of those third-party services is governed by their own terms, conditions, and privacy practices. We encourage you to review those policies before sharing information or relying on their services. Serathia is not responsible for the availability, accuracy, security, content, or practices of third-party services.
Wearables and Connected Devices (Current and Future Integrations)
Olvi may in the future let you connect a fitness tracker, smartwatch, or health platform so your insights are richer. Connecting is always your choice, the device's own maker controls that data, and you can disconnect any time.
- Future availability. Integrations may be added, changed, or discontinued over time, and availability may depend on the third party's continued support.
- Connecting is optional and initiated by you. You choose whether to connect a device or platform. When you do, you authorize Olvi to receive information from that service, and/or to share information with it, as you direct, and you'll see a clear consent prompt describing what is connected before the link is created.
- The third party controls its own service. Each integration is provided by the device or platform maker and is governed by their terms and privacy policy.
- Sensitive data, same safeguards. Health and fitness data received through an integration is treated as sensitive personal information and handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy and the consent you provide.
- You can disconnect at any time. Disconnecting stops future data flow between Olvi and that service. Information already received is handled as described in our Privacy Policy.
13. Privacy and Data Protection
Your privacy is central to how we build Olvi. Our Privacy Policy explains what data we collect, how we use and protect it, and your rights. By agreeing to these Terms, you also agree to our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into this Agreement by reference.
We handle personal information in accordance with applicable Canadian privacy laws, including PIPEDA, Ontario's PHIPA (where applicable), and Québec's Law 25 (for Québec residents). Olvi's data is hosted on cloud infrastructure located in Canada to support Canadian data-residency expectations.
We use analytics tools to understand how people use Olvi — for example, which features are used and where users encounter problems — so we can improve the App's performance, reliability, and design. Where analytics involve personal information, we handle it in accordance with our Privacy Policy, and we apply data-minimizing and privacy-protective measures (such as de-identification or aggregation) wherever practicable.
If we ever introduce any advertising or promotional features in the future, we will do so in a privacy-protective manner, clearly disclose it, exclude sensitive health information from ad targeting, and obtain any consent required by law before doing so.
14. Electronic Communications (Email, Push Notifications)
Service Communications
By using Olvi, you agree that we may communicate with you electronically regarding your account, security, support requests, subscription status, service updates, policy changes, and other information necessary to provide and maintain the Service. These communications may be delivered through email, in-app messages, or push notifications and may not be subject to opt-out where they are necessary for the operation, security, or administration of your account.
Notification Preferences
Olvi may offer different categories of notifications, including:
- Meal logging reminders.
- Goal and progress updates.
- Health and wellness tips.
- Product updates and new feature announcements.
- Promotional and marketing communications.
Where applicable, you can choose whether to receive these notifications and can update your preferences at any time through the App settings or your device settings. Disabling certain notifications may limit your ability to receive reminders, progress updates, or other features designed to support your health goals.
Marketing Communications
Consistent with Canada's Anti-Spam Legislation (CASL), we will send commercial or marketing electronic messages only where we have obtained the consent required by law. All marketing communications will include a method to unsubscribe or withdraw consent. Choosing not to receive marketing communications will not affect your ability to use the Service.
Electronic Records and Signatures
You consent to receive notices, disclosures, agreements, and other communications from us electronically. You agree that electronic communications, records, and signatures satisfy any legal requirement that such communications be provided in writing.
15. Accessibility
We strive to design and operate Olvi in a way that supports accessibility and usability for people with diverse needs and abilities. As Olvi evolves, we will continue working to improve accessibility and remove barriers where reasonably possible.
If you experience difficulty accessing or using any part of the Service, please contact us using the information in Section 27. We welcome feedback and will make reasonable efforts to address accessibility concerns and improve the user experience.
16. Managing and Changing the Service
We are always improving Olvi and may update, change, suspend, or discontinue features (or the entire Service) at any time. We will notify you of major changes that affect your use (for example, by in-app announcement). We may also monitor the App for violations of these Terms and take appropriate action to protect the Service and our users. We have no obligation to maintain or support any particular feature indefinitely.
17. Termination
You may stop using Olvi at any time and can delete your account through the App's settings or by contacting support. When you do, your personal information will be handled as described in our Privacy Policy.
We may suspend or terminate your access if you violate these Terms or where required for legal or security reasons. In most cases we will notify you and explain why, unless we are legally prevented from doing so. Deleting your account or ending your use of Olvi does not affect any rights, responsibilities, or obligations that existed before your account was closed.
18. Disclaimers
The Service is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the App will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, or that nutritional data, AI estimates, or other content will be accurate or complete. Nothing in these Terms limits any rights you may have under consumer-protection laws that cannot be waived.
19. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Serathia and its directors, officers, employees, and affiliates will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for lost data or lost profits, arising out of or relating to your use of (or inability to use) the App — including any health-related outcomes resulting from reliance on the App.
In jurisdictions that do not allow certain limitations, our liability will be limited to the fullest extent permitted by law. Nothing in these Terms is intended to limit or exclude any rights, remedies, or protections that cannot legally be limited or excluded under applicable law.
20. Indemnification
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Serathia and its officers, employees, and affiliates from any third-party claim, loss, liability, or expense (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of (a) Your Content, (b) your use of the Service, (c) your breach of these Terms, or (d) your violation of any law or third-party right. We will use reasonable efforts to notify you of any such claim and may, at your expense, assume its exclusive defence and control, in which case you agree to cooperate.
21. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution
These Terms are governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario and the applicable federal laws of Canada, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any dispute arising from these Terms or your use of Olvi will be subject to the jurisdiction of the courts of Ontario, and you consent to that jurisdiction.
Before starting any formal proceeding, we encourage you to contact us so we can try to resolve the matter informally. Nothing in this section limits any non-waivable rights or remedies available to you under Ontario's Consumer Protection Act, 2002 or other applicable consumer-protection law, including any right to participate in a class proceeding.
22. International Use and Export Compliance
Olvi is operated by Serathia Inc. from Canada. Our servers, data storage, and operations are located in Canada, and our policies and procedures are based primarily on Canadian law. The privacy and other laws of Canada may differ from those of your own country. If you access or use Olvi from outside Canada, the following apply:
- Cross-border processing. You consent to the transfer, storage, and processing of your information — including Your Content, Olvi Output, and any personal information — in Canada (and, where applicable, in other countries where our service providers operate), as described in our Privacy Policy. By using Olvi, you acknowledge that your information will be handled under Canadian law.
- Your local laws. You are responsible for complying with all local laws, rules, and regulations that apply to you, including those in effect where you reside and where you access the Service. Where local law would prohibit or restrict your use of Olvi, you may not use it.
- Availability. Olvi is currently offered primarily to users in Canada, and accessing it from elsewhere is at your own initiative. The Service is not intended for distribution to, or use by, any person or entity in any jurisdiction where such distribution or use would be contrary to law or regulation, or would subject Serathia to any registration or licensing requirement in that jurisdiction.
Users in the United States
If you access or subscribe to Olvi from the United States, additional U.S.-specific terms apply, including U.S. consumer-health-data protections (such as applicable state consumer health data laws) and U.S. subscription-disclosure and cancellation requirements. Those terms, and our supplementary U.S. Consumer Health Data Notice, are presented to U.S. users at sign-up and form part of this Agreement for those users. See Section 23 (Additional Terms for U.S. Users).
23. Additional Terms for U.S. Users
These additional terms apply to users located outside Canada and operate on top of the rest of these Terms. Where a region-specific term conflicts with another section, the region-specific term controls for users in that region, but only to that extent and only for users in that region. The provisions in this section apply to users who access, subscribe to, or use Olvi while located in the United States ("U.S. Users").
- A wellness service — not HIPAA-regulated. Olvi is a consumer wellness and nutrition app, not a healthcare provider, health plan, or insurer. Olvi is not a "covered entity" or "business associate" under the U.S. Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), and information you give Olvi directly is not HIPAA "protected health information." It is protected instead by these Terms, our Privacy Policy, our U.S. Consumer Health Data Notice, and applicable U.S. federal and state law. Olvi does not provide medical advice (see Section 4).
- Consumer health data — Washington, Nevada, and similar states. Much of what you share — meals, nutrition, calorie and macro data, weight, activity, health goals, any conditions you choose to share, and inferences we draw from them — may be "consumer health data" under laws such as Washington's My Health My Data Act, Nevada's SB 370, and comparable state laws. We apply the following commitments to all U.S. Users: collecting and processing this data only with your consent and as needed to provide the Service; obtaining your separate consent before sharing it with a third party (other than service providers acting for us under contract); never selling it without the authorization the law requires; not using geofences around healthcare facilities to track you; and honoring your rights to access, withdraw consent, and delete this data. Full categories, purposes, and how to exercise these rights are in our U.S. Consumer Health Data Notice, which forms part of these Terms and is set out in our Privacy Policy. (Washington residents: that Notice and the sensitive-data section of our Privacy Policy serve as the consumer health data privacy notice for your state.)
- State privacy rights — California and other states. If you live in California (under the CCPA/CPRA) or another state with a comprehensive privacy law (such as Virginia, Colorado, Connecticut, Texas, or Oregon), you may have rights to know/access, correct, delete, and port your personal information; to opt out of any "sale" or "sharing" and of targeted advertising and certain profiling; and to limit the use of sensitive personal information (which includes health information). For all U.S. Users: we treat health and nutrition data as sensitive, and we will not discriminate against you for exercising your rights. We honor recognized browser opt-out preference signals such as the Global Privacy Control (GPC). Under California's "Shine the Light," we do not disclose personal information to third parties for their own direct marketing. To exercise a right or appeal a decision, contact us (Section 27); we may verify your identity and accept authorized agents where the law allows.
- Subscriptions and automatic renewal. This supplements the "Billing, Auto-Renewal, Price Changes & Cancellation" provisions in Section 6 and is intended to meet the federal Restore Online Shoppers' Confidence Act (ROSCA) and state automatic-renewal laws (such as those in California and New York). Before you subscribe, we clearly disclose the price, billing frequency, and renewal terms; we obtain your affirmative consent before charging; paid plans renew automatically until you cancel; we disclose any free-trial conversion in advance; and cancellation is also facilitated via the app (through your app store if you purchased there, or through app settings or by contacting us).
- Electronic communications (CAN-SPAM and TCPA). Supplementing Section 14, our marketing email complies with the CAN-SPAM Act and always includes an unsubscribe option. If Olvi offers text messaging, we will text you only if you opt in; consent to marketing texts is not required to use Olvi; you can reply STOP to opt out; and we will not send sensitive health information by SMS.
- Health and wellness claims. Consistent with U.S. Federal Trade Commission expectations, Olvi provides general wellness and educational information and does not guarantee any particular health, weight, or metabolic outcome; individual results vary.
- Accessibility (ADA). Supplementing Section 15, we work toward conformance with recognized accessibility standards (such as WCAG) and welcome feedback about any barrier.
- Children (COPPA). Olvi is for users 18 and older. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18 and will delete it if we learn we have.
- Dispute resolution and governing law for U.S. Users. Please contact us first so we can try to resolve any dispute informally. The main Terms apply Ontario law and the courts of Ontario; for U.S. Users, Serathia may instead adopt binding individual arbitration with a class-action waiver and/or the local governing law. Nothing here waives the non-waivable consumer-protection rights of your U.S. state of residence.
24. Additional Terms for Users in India
These provisions apply to users who access, subscribe to, or use Olvi while located in India ("India Users"). They are designed to operate alongside India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 and the Digital Personal Data Protection Rules, 2025 (the "DPDP framework"), the Information Technology Act, 2000 and its rules, and the Consumer Protection Act, 2019 and the Consumer Protection (E-Commerce) Rules, 2020.
- Our role — Data Fiduciary. Because Serathia determines the purposes and means of processing your personal data, we act as a Data Fiduciary and you are the Data Principal under the DPDP framework. The DPDP framework applies to our offering of Olvi to individuals in India even though we operate from Canada.
- Notice, consent, and minimisation. At or before the point of collection, we give you a notice in clear and plain language that itemises the personal data we collect and the specific purpose for each item, and explains how to exercise your rights and complain to us and to the Data Protection Board of India. We process your personal data on the basis of your free, specific, informed, unconditional, and unambiguous consent, given by clear affirmative action — we do not bundle unrelated consents or use pre-ticked boxes — and we limit collection to what is necessary for the consented purpose.
- Your rights as a Data Principal. You may: access a summary of the personal data we process and our processing activities; correct, complete, or update it; request erasure (subject to retention required or permitted by law); withdraw consent at any time; seek grievance redressal (see the grievance-redressal item below); and nominate another individual to exercise your rights in the event of your death or incapacity.
- Withdrawing consent. You may withdraw consent at any time through in-app settings or via our Grievance Officer, as easily as you gave it. We then stop the relevant processing within a reasonable time, except where continued processing is required or permitted by law. Because Olvi's personalisation depends on the information you share, withdrawal may disable some or all features — we make this clear at the point of withdrawal.
- Grievance redressal. We maintain a grievance mechanism as required under the IT Act rules, the E-Commerce Rules, and the DPDP framework.
- Cross-border processing. Olvi stores your data on cloud infrastructure in Canada, not in India. By using Olvi from India and providing your consent, you agree that your personal data — including meal logs, photos, health-profile details, and Results — is transferred to, stored, and processed in Canada (and, where applicable, other countries where our service providers operate). We apply security safeguards appropriate to the sensitivity of the information wherever it is processed.
- Data breach notification. If a breach of your personal data occurs, we will notify you and the Data Protection Board of India in the manner and within the timeframes required under the DPDP framework.
- Medical disclaimer and wellness positioning. Olvi is offered in India as a general wellness, educational, and behavioural-support application — not a medical device, not medical advice, and not a substitute for a registered medical practitioner or qualified professional. The Medical Disclaimer in Section 4 applies in full.
- Subscriptions and billing. Where you purchase a paid subscription from India: pricing (including amount, billing cycle, and applicable taxes) is shown clearly before purchase; recurring payments and auto-renewal follow applicable requirements for recurring transactions (including additional authentication and pre-debit notification), subject to your bank and app store; you may cancel any time through your account settings or app store, effective at the end of the current billing period; and refunds, where offered, follow our refund policy and Indian consumer-protection law.
- Consumer protection and fair practices. For India Users we comply with the Consumer Protection Act, 2019 and the E-Commerce Rules, 2020: we display our legal name, contact, and details; provide clear information about the Service, plans, pricing, and cancellation before purchase; and avoid misleading advertising and unfair trade practices.
- Electronic communications and marketing. We may send you account and service messages (some necessary to operate your account and not subject to opt-out). Promotional messages are sent only with the consent Indian law requires, with an opt-out option.
- Governing law and your Indian consumer rights. The main Terms are governed by Ontario and Canadian law (Section 21). Nothing in the Agreement removes or limits any rights, protections, or remedies that cannot be waived under Indian law, including under the Consumer Protection Act, 2019 and the DPDP framework. As a consumer in India, you may pursue grievances and remedies through Indian consumer dispute redressal mechanisms and complain to the Data Protection Board of India, notwithstanding the governing-law and forum provisions of the main Terms.
25. Corrections
There may occasionally be typographical errors, inaccuracies, or omissions in the App or these Terms. We reserve the right to correct them and to update information at any time without prior notice.
26. Miscellaneous
These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and any policies we post, form the entire agreement between you and us regarding the App. Our failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of it. If any provision is found unlawful or unenforceable, it will be limited or removed to the minimum extent necessary and the rest will remain in effect. We may assign our rights and obligations (for example, in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets). No partnership, joint venture, or employment relationship is created by these Terms. These Terms will not be construed against us merely because we drafted them.
