For me buds Terms of Use

Effective Date: ____, 2026

Please read these Terms of Use (these "Terms") carefully. These Terms govern your use of the For me buds mobile application (the "App"), the app-connected features of the For me buds wearable device (the "Device"), and the content and features provided through the App (collectively, the "Service"), each provided by Sleepwave Inc. (the "Company," "we," "us," or "our").

For me buds are sleep earbuds equipped with a PPG (photoplethysmography) sensor and an accelerometer, designed to measure your sleep state and provide sounds suited to sleep, helping improve your sleep quality.

The Service can be used without creating an account or logging in. Sleep and biometric measurement data are processed and stored only on your device and are not transmitted to the Company's servers.

You will be asked to agree to these Terms when you first launch the App. If you do not agree, you may not use the Service. By installing or launching the App or using the Service, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms.

Information about how the Company handles personal data is available in our Privacy Policy [link], which you can access at any time from the App's Settings menu.

The Service is not a medical device and does not provide medical advice or diagnosis. See Section 8 for details.
