Terms of Use

What EmetCalm is

EmetCalm is a self-help tool offering grounding exercises, educational content, and a personal session log. It is built from lived experience with emetophobia and informed by CBT and ERP principles.

What EmetCalm is not

EmetCalm is not therapy, medical advice, or a substitute for professional help. The content is not written or supervised by a licensed therapist, psychologist, or medical professional. If you are in crisis or experiencing a mental health emergency, please contact a professional or call a helpline such as Samaritans (116 123) or Crisis Text Line (text HELLO to 741741).

Nothing in this app should be taken as a diagnosis, treatment plan, or clinical recommendation. If you are unsure about your mental or physical health, please speak to a qualified professional.

Age requirement

You must be at least 16 years old to create an account and use EmetCalm. By creating an account, you confirm that you meet this requirement.

Your account

You can use the grounding tools without an account. If you create one, you are responsible for the email address you provide. We use magic links for sign-in, so there are no passwords to manage or leak.

Content accuracy

We try to ensure the educational articles and grounding content are accurate and well-researched. However, we cannot guarantee that everything is complete, up to date, or applicable to your specific situation. The articles include references where possible, but they are not peer-reviewed publications.

Limitation of liability

EmetCalm is provided as-is, free of charge. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any loss, harm, or damage arising from your use of the app, including but not limited to any decisions you make based on its content. This includes any interruption or loss of saved data.

Availability

We aim to keep EmetCalm available but cannot guarantee uninterrupted access. We may update, change, or remove features at any time.

Acceptable use

Please do not misuse the app, attempt to access other users' data, or use EmetCalm in any way that could harm other users or the service.

Changes to these terms

If we make meaningful changes, we will update this page. Continued use of EmetCalm after changes are posted means you accept the updated terms.
