Terms of Use
Last updated: February 18, 2026
1. Introduction
These Terms of Use govern your use of the Vaava mobile application and related services provided by Novi Homines Software Oy ("Vaava", "we", "us", or "our"). By accessing or using Vaava, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, do not use the app.
Vaava is provided as a free, local-first mobile app for family tracking and baby monitor use.
2. Eligibility and Responsible Use
You must be legally capable of entering into a binding agreement in your country of residence. You are responsible for supervising your own use of baby-monitor and tracking features and for any decisions made based on app output.
3. Your rights in Local Mode Free
We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use Vaava for private, non-commercial family tracking purposes on supported devices.
What you can expect in Local Mode
- Use core tracking and monitor functions
- Keep data on your own devices and local device-to-device sync paths
- Export supported data where export is provided in the app
What is not included in Local Mode
- No guarantee that every feature is available on every device or OS version
- Some features may require local network conditions that are outside our control
4. Acceptable Use
You agree not to:
- Use the app for unlawful, abusive, or harmful purposes
- Attempt unauthorized access to systems, networks, or other users' data
- Interfere with normal app or service operation
- Copy, resell, reverse engineer, or redistribute the app except where mandatory law allows
5. Intellectual Property
Vaava, including software, branding, design, and content, is owned by Novi Homines Software Oy or its licensors and protected by applicable intellectual property laws. These terms grant a right to use the service, not ownership of the software.
6. Service Changes, Suspension, and Termination
We may update, suspend, or discontinue parts of the app or service to improve quality, security, or legal compliance. We may suspend or terminate access for violations of these terms.
You may stop using the app at any time and may delete local app data as described in our Privacy Policy.
7. Disclaimer and Limitation of Liability
The app is provided "as is" and "as available" to the maximum extent permitted by law. We do not guarantee uninterrupted operation or error-free performance.
To the extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or loss of data/profits arising from use of the app. Nothing in these terms limits rights that cannot be excluded under applicable consumer law.
8. Governing Law
These terms are governed by the laws of Finland, without regard to conflict-of-law principles, unless mandatory consumer law in your jurisdiction requires otherwise.
9. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms of Use from time to time. Material changes will be communicated in-app, or on the website. Continued use after changes take effect means you accept the updated terms.
