Terms and Conditions

Last update:

Welcome to Unhook, operated by Lexom Inc. ("Lexom", "Unhook", "we", "us", "our"). These Terms and Conditions ("Terms") outline the rules and regulations for using our application and services. These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and Subscription Terms, form the complete agreement between you and Lexom Inc.

1. Acceptance of Terms

By downloading, installing, or using Unhook, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms, our Privacy Policy, and (if you subscribe to premium features) our Subscription Terms. If you do not agree with any part of these terms, please do not use our Service.

2. Important Health and Wellness Disclaimer

Unhook is a digital wellness tool designed to support users in building healthier habits. It is important to understand that:

  • Unhook does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, treatment, therapy, counseling, or professional addiction recovery services
  • The App is not a substitute for professional healthcare, therapy, or counseling
  • Use of the App does not create a doctor-patient or therapist-client relationship
  • No specific results, sobriety outcomes, habit changes, or health improvements are guaranteed
  • Individual results vary widely and depend on many factors beyond the App

Always consult qualified healthcare professionals (e.g., physicians, therapists, counselors, or addiction specialists) for personalized advice. Seek immediate professional help in cases of crisis, severe distress, or emergency. Do not rely solely on the App for managing addiction, mental health, or any related condition.

If you or someone you know is in crisis:

  • Emergency: Call 911 (US/Canada) or your local emergency number
  • 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline (US): Call or text 988
  • Crisis Services Canada: Call 1-833-456-4566 or text 45645
  • Crisis Text Line: Text HOME to 741741 (US) or 686868 (Canada)

3. Age Requirements

Unhook is available to users aged 13 and above. The app contains no adult content, nudity, or explicit material. We focus solely on providing tools and support for building healthy habits and tracking progress.

Users between the ages of 13 and 17 must have the consent of a parent or legal guardian to use the App. By creating an account on behalf of a minor, the parent or guardian agrees to these Terms on the minor's behalf and accepts responsibility for the minor's use of the App.

4. Account Creation and Security

When creating an account, you must provide accurate and complete information. You are responsible for:

  • Maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials
  • All activities that occur under your account
  • Notifying us immediately of any unauthorized access
  • Ensuring your account information remains current

5. Subscription and Payments

Unhook offers both free and premium features through auto-renewable subscription plans processed via Apple's App Store. For complete details on billing, auto-renewal, cancellation, refunds, free trials, and pricing, please refer to our Subscription Terms.

6. Community Guidelines

Our community thrives on mutual support and respect. Users must:

  • Foster a supportive and encouraging environment
  • Respect privacy and confidentiality
  • Share only appropriate, recovery-focused content
  • Help maintain community safety by reporting concerns
  • Avoid self-promotion or commercial activities
  • Engage in constructive, respectful dialogue

6.1 Content Guidelines and Moderation

Users must not post content that:

  • Promotes violence, self-harm, or hatred
  • Includes harassment, bullying, or threatening language
  • Violates others' privacy or intellectual property
  • Contains illegal content or promotes illegal activities
  • Includes spam, scams, or misleading information

We employ automated moderation tools powered by OpenAI that may flag and remove prohibited content without prior notice. Our system:

  • Automatically screens all user-generated content
  • Removes content that violates our guidelines
  • May temporarily restrict posting privileges for policy violations
  • Can lead to account suspension for repeated or severe violations

If you believe your content was incorrectly moderated, you may appeal the decision through our support channels. We will review appeals within 10 business days. We reserve the right to make final decisions on all content moderation matters.

6.2 User Interactions

You are solely responsible for your interactions with other users. Lexom Inc. does not screen, vet, or endorse any user and is not liable for any damage, loss, or harm arising from your interactions with other users, including harassment, bullying, or emotional distress caused by another user's content or conduct. If you experience harassment or feel unsafe, please report it through the App's reporting features or contact us at hello@getunhook.com.

6.3 AI-Powered Features

Unhook uses artificial intelligence, including third-party AI services (such as OpenAI), to power certain features including the "Lumina" chatbot and automated content moderation. You acknowledge and agree that:

  • AI-generated responses may contain errors, inaccuracies, or incomplete information
  • AI responses do not constitute medical advice, therapy, counseling, or professional addiction recovery guidance
  • AI features are provided for general informational and support purposes only

During any such event, our obligations under these Terms are suspended for the duration of the event.
