Terms of Service
Welcome to Call Pet. Call Pet is a privacy-first, end-to-end encrypted, two-device remote monitoring tool that includes a Monitor device and a Controller device. By downloading, installing, accessing, or using Call Pet, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to these Terms of Service (the "Terms"). If you do not agree, please do not use the service.

- Scope: the Call Pet mobile app (including Monitor and Controller roles) and related features.
2. Service Description and Current Form
Call Pet uses QR-code pairing to establish an end-to-end encrypted audio/video link between two devices. The current version:
- Does not require account registration.
- Offers a free trial period with full features, which can be extended by watching rewarded video ads.
- Provides optional Pro subscription (monthly, yearly, or lifetime) to unlock premium features including call recording, HD video (1080p), flashlight control, unlimited call duration, and multi-controller support.
- Displays rewarded video ads only when you voluntarily choose to watch them to extend your trial.
- Transmits audio/video peer-to-peer by default; servers are used only for signaling relay.
- Offers optional local recording that is initiated by you and stored on your device.
We may adjust features or policies for operational or technical reasons and will notify you as described in Section 13.
3. Eligibility and Compliance
- You must have lawful authority to use the devices and environments involved.
- You must not use the service for any illegal purpose, including unauthorized surveillance, recording, or privacy infringement.
- If you are under 13 years old or are a minor under local law, use the service only with parental consent and guidance.
- You must comply with applicable laws and these Terms.
4. Pairing Codes and Device Security
- Pairing codes/QR codes act as authorization credentials. Anyone with the pairing code may become a Controller.
- You are responsible for keeping pairing codes and devices secure and preventing leakage or unauthorized scanning.
- If you suspect a leak, regenerate the Monitor QR code to invalidate previous pairings.
- Rooted/jailbroken or compromised devices may allow unauthorized access. You bear the resulting risks.
5. Recording and Content Responsibility
- Recording is optional and only takes effect when you enable it. Recordings are stored locally on your device.
- You are solely responsible for the legality and authorization of recorded content.
- We do not store, view, or analyze your recordings and assume no rights or liability for them.
6. Network and Third-Party Services
- The service depends on network connectivity and system permissions, and performance may vary by network conditions.
- Third-party STUN/ICE services may be used for NAT traversal and connectivity.
- Data usage charges may apply according to your carrier or network provider.
7. Free Trial and Advertisements
- New users receive a 3-day free trial with full Pro features.
- You may extend your trial period (up to 30 days total) by watching rewarded video ads. Ad viewing is entirely voluntary.
- Ads are provided by Google AdMob. We are not responsible for the content of third-party advertisements.
- After your trial expires, you will retain access to basic features, but Pro features (recording, 1080p video, flashlight control, etc.) will require a subscription.
- Trial period is tracked locally on your device. If the system detects that device time has been manually changed to circumvent the trial period, the trial may be invalidated.
8. Subscriptions and In-App Purchases (iOS)
- Call Pet Pro subscriptions are available as monthly, yearly, or lifetime (one-time) purchases through Apple's App Store.
- Payment is charged to your Apple ID account upon purchase confirmation.
- Monthly and yearly subscriptions automatically renew unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
- You can manage or cancel subscriptions in your device's Settings > Apple ID > Subscriptions. After cancellation, you retain Pro access until the end of the current billing period, then revert to basic features.
- Refunds are handled by Apple according to their refund policies. To request a refund, visit reportaproblem.apple.com or contact Apple Support. We do not process refunds directly.
- Prices are displayed in your local currency before purchase and may vary by region. Any price changes will not affect active subscription periods.
