We are registered in England and Wales under company number 13175819 and our registered office is Montague House Hawksworth Road, Syerston, Newark, England, NG23 5NB. Through our App we provide narcissistic abuse recovery information and support (“Service”) for users over the age of 18.

Data Protection and Privacy Policy

Please take the time to review our Privacy Policy, which sets out the terms on which we process any personal data we collect from you, or that you provide to us.

Support

If you want to learn more about the App or the Service or have any problems using it please take a look at our support resources at mynara.app.

If you think the App or the Service are faulty or misdescribed or wish to contact us for any other reason please email our customer service team at support@mynara.app. We are unable to provide advice, support answer any communications about your personal situation. Once again, please seek urgent emergency help if you are in a vulnerable position.

If we must contact you, we will do so by email, using the contact details you have provided to us for your account. You must make sure you have access to that email address and that you tell us of any change to your email by updating your details through the settings page on your account.

Operating system requirements

This App works on a mobile or desktop as a progressive web application, with no need to download or store information to your device.

Update to the App and Changes to the Service

From time to time, we may automatically update the App and change the Service to improve performance, enhance functionality, reflect changes to the operating system or address security issues in respect of both Free Services and Paid Services.

The App or any Service may contain links to other independent websites which are not provided by us. Such independent sites are not under our control, and we are not responsible for and have not checked and approved their content or their privacy policies (if any). You will need to make your own independent judgement about whether to use any such independent sites, including whether to buy any products or services offered by them.

Use of the App

In return for your agreeing to comply with these terms you may:
· save the App to your home screen and view, use and display the App and the Service on such devices for your personal purposes only.
· create an account by providing your email address and password and confirming your acceptance of these terms and conditions.
You must be 18 to accept these terms.

Changes to these Terms & Conditions

Please note that we reserve the right to revise or amend these terms at any time to reflect changes to our business or changes in the law.
We will give you at least [30] days’ notice of any change by sending you an SMS with details of the change or notifying you of a change when you next start the App.

If you do not accept the notified changes, you will not be permitted to continue to use the App and the Service.

Your account

As you need a password to access your account, you must treat such information as confidential. You must not disclose it to any third party. As the App contains personal information that is sensitive, we strongly suggest you use an entirely unique password for this App that is considered “strong.”

Strong passwords tend to contain a combination of letters, numbers (in both upper and lower case) and special characters. If you lose your password, other people may be able to see your information, access your account and terminate this contract.

If you know or suspect that anyone other than you knows your password, you must promptly notify us at support@mynara.app or follow the ‘reset my password’ (provided your email address is still secure) function on your account.

If you wish to delete your account at any time, you can do so within the app. Please note that if you delete your account you will not be entitled to a refund of any Paid Service charges that you have paid.

We have the right to disable any password, at any time, if in our reasonable opinion you have failed to comply with any of the provisions of these terms of use or we reasonably believe your account has been compromised.

Licence

Subject to the terms and conditions of this agreement, we grant to you a personal non-exclusive, revocable, non-transferable, and limited licence to use this App.

You also agree that you will:

· not rent, lease, sub-license, loan, provide, or otherwise make available, the App or the Service in any form, in whole or in part to any person without prior written consent from us;

· not disassemble, de-compile, reverse engineer or create derivative works based on the whole or any part of the App or the Services nor attempt to do any such things, except to the extent that (by virtue of sections 50B and 296A of the Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988) such actions cannot be prohibited because they are necessary to obtain the information needed to create an independent program that can be operated with the App or with another program (Permitted Objective), and provided that the information obtained by you during such activities:
• is not disclosed or communicated without our prior written consent to any third party to whom it is not necessary to disclose or communicate it in order to achieve the Permitted Objective; and
• is not used to create any software that is substantially similar in its expression to the App;
• is kept secure; and
• is used only for the Permitted Objective;
· comply with all applicable technology control or export laws and regulations that apply to the technology used or supported by the App or any Service.

You must:

· not use the App or any Service in any unlawful manner, for any unlawful purpose, or in any manner inconsistent with these terms, or act fraudulently or maliciously, for example, by hacking into or inserting malicious code, such as viruses, or harmful data, into the App, any Service or any operating system;
· not infringe our intellectual property rights or those of any third party in relation to your use of the App or any Service (to the extent that such use is not licensed by these terms);
· not transmit any material that is defamatory, offensive or otherwise objectionable in relation to your use of the App or any Service;

Free and Paid Services

Free Service
Once you have completed the account registration process, you will have access to the selected free features within the App. We reserve the right to withdraw your access to free content at any time.

Paid Service

The rest of the content, such as access to the Recovery Toolbox, is available on a subscription at the price indicated within the app.

We may change the subscription price from time to time. Any change will only take place from the renewal date of your subscription. We will notify you in advance of any change and you may contact us to cancel this before the change takes effect.

Your subscription will be renewed unless it is cancelled by you.

We will pass on changes in the rate of VAT. If the rate of VAT changes between your order date and the date of the next payment, we will adjust the rate of VAT that you pay for renewals.

When you place an order for a Paid Service you will be asked to confirm that you consent to immediate access to the Paid Service and that by doing so you acknowledge that this means you lose your statutory right of withdrawal. This means that you do not have the right to cancel this contract and get a refund once the automatic download or access to the Paid Service starts unless the Paid Service is faulty.

Intellectual Property

MyNARA is the owner and/or the licensee of all intellectual property rights inherent in the App and the Service. Unless specifically stated otherwise, nothing in these terms or on the App shall give effect to any transfer of such intellectual property rights from us to you.

Your sole right to use the intellectual property inherent in the App is a non-exclusive licence to make use of such content only as is strictly necessary to enable you to access the App and to peruse its contents and use the Service.

We are not responsible for events outside our control.

If our provision of the Service or support for the App or the Service is delayed by an event outside our control, then we will contact you as soon as possible to let you know and we will take steps to minimise the effect of the delay. Provided we do this we will not be liable for delays caused by the event but if there is a risk of substantial delay you may contact us to end your contract with us and receive a refund for any Service you have paid for but not received.

Indemnity and guarantees

You agree to indemnify and keep indemnified us, our successors and assigns, our directors, trustees, offices, employees and agents from and against all liabilities, claims, losses, costs, damages and expenses including legal fees which are reasonably incurred by us should you breach any of these terms and conditions.

This indemnity includes your use of the information you read on the App, together with any introduction or collaboration that you enter into as a result of viewing this App.

Guarantees in relation to the Paid Service:

- The Consumer Rights Act 2015 gives you certain legal rights in relation to what you have paid for and the content must be of satisfactory quality, fit for purpose and match its description.

· issue of a warning to you;
· legal proceedings against you for reimbursement of all costs on an indemnity basis (including, but not limited to, reasonable administrative and legal costs) resulting from the breach;
· further legal action against you; or

No rights for third parties

This Agreement does not give rise to any rights under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 to enforce any term of this Agreement.
If a court finds part of this contract illegal, the rest will continue in force

Even if we delay in enforcing this contract, we can still enforce it later. If we do not insist immediately that you do anything you are required to do under these terms, or if we delay in taking steps against you in respect of your breaking this contract, that will not mean that you do not have to do those things and it will not prevent us taking steps against you at a later date.
