Terms of Service
Last updated: May 30, 2026
These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of the Vela application ("the App") published by Bulpara Inc ("we", "us", "our"). By downloading or using the App, you agree to these Terms.
1. Service Description
Vela is an iOS application that helps you privately track the health of dogs and cats living with chronic conditions. It runs entirely on your device and includes: logging of seizures, symptoms, blood-glucose readings, medications, and dose events; a one-tap seizure timer; medication and glucose-check reminders; trend charts; export of a vet-ready PDF and CSV report; optional video clips attached to episodes; home-screen widgets; and an optional App Lock. The App requires no account and stores your data locally on your device.
Important — Vela is not veterinary advice. Vela is a record-keeping tool, not a medical device. It does not diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any condition, and it is not a substitute for professional veterinary care. Always consult a qualified veterinarian for decisions about your pet's health, and seek emergency veterinary care when needed.
2. Not a Medical Device; No Veterinary Advice
You understand and agree that:
- The App is intended solely to help you record and organize information about your pet. It provides no medical or veterinary advice, diagnosis, or treatment recommendation.
- Nothing in the App — including trend charts, summaries, or reminders — should be used to make medical decisions without consulting your veterinarian.
- You should never start, stop, or change a medication or treatment based on the App. Follow your veterinarian's instructions.
- Reminders are convenience aids, not a guaranteed alarm system. Notification delivery depends on your device and iOS settings and may be delayed or missed. Do not rely on the App alone for time- or life-critical dosing.
- In a medical emergency, contact your veterinarian or an emergency animal hospital immediately. Do not use the App as a substitute for emergency care.
3. Acceptable Use
You agree to use the App only for lawful purposes and only to track animals you own or are responsible for. You agree not to:
- Reverse engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract the App's source or assets
- Attempt to circumvent subscription restrictions or free-tier limitations
- Use the App in any manner that violates applicable laws or third-party rights
4. Subscriptions & Billing

- We reserve the right to change pricing with reasonable notice. Existing subscribers retain their price for the remainder of the active term.
5. Your Content
All pet profiles, logs, notes, and attachments you create are stored locally on your device. You retain all rights to your content. We do not access, collect, or store your content on any server. You are responsible for keeping your own backups; because the App stores data only on your device, deleting the App or losing the device will result in loss of that data.
6. Intellectual Property
The App, including its design, code, and packaged content, is owned by Bulpara Inc and is protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws. You receive a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the App for its intended purpose.
7. Disclaimer of Warranties
THE APP IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE APP WILL BE ERROR-FREE OR UNINTERRUPTED, OR THAT REMINDERS WILL ALWAYS BE DELIVERED.
8. Limitation of Liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, BULPARA INC SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THE APP, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO:
- Health or treatment decisions made based on information recorded in, or reminders delivered (or not delivered) by, the App
- Any harm to an animal arising from reliance on the App in place of professional veterinary care
- Loss of locally stored data due to user error, device failure, or App deletion
- Subscription-related charges that fall under Apple's billing policy
9. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Bulpara Inc from any claims, damages, or expenses arising from your use of the App.
10. Termination
We may terminate or suspend your access to the App at any time, without notice, for conduct that we believe violates these Terms or is harmful to the business or other users.
11. Changes to Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date. Continued use of the App after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
12. Governing Law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, United States, without regard to its conflict of laws provisions.
