Terms of Service

In plain words: Cira is currently a free waitlist for an upcoming voice companion app, it is a wellbeing tool and not a medical service, and by joining the waitlist or using early access you agree to the rules below.

Effective date: 2026-07-08

1. Who we are

Cira is operated by HT HOUSEBOATS sp. z o.o., a company registered in Poland, with its registered address at ul. Morska 54, Koszalin, Poland. The company is entered in the National Court Register (KRS) under number 0000769170 and holds tax identification number (NIP) PL4990676720. We refer to the company as “we,” “us” or “Cira” in these Terms. You can reach us at marcinbaranowski1979+cira@gmail.com. By joining the waitlist, requesting early access, or otherwise using the Cira website or app (together, the “Service”), you agree to these Terms of Service (“Terms”). If you do not agree, please do not use the Service.

2. What the Service is, today and going forward

Right now, the Service consists of a website where you can join a waitlist for early access to the Cira app. We are building Cira to be a voice-based wellbeing and support companion for people recovering at home — for example, after a stroke — that talks with the person day to day, offers general wellbeing prompts, and generates reports for family members who care about how their loved one is doing. Early access to the app, once available, is free. We may change, expand, delay, limit, or discontinue any part of the Service, including features described on our website, at any time, and we will try to give you reasonable notice of material changes where practical.

3. Nature of the Service — please read this carefully

This section is the most important part of these Terms, so we are stating it plainly and directly.

• Cira is a wellness and support tool. It is not a medical device. Cira is not certified, registered, or intended to be used as a medical device under EU Regulation 2017/745 (MDR) or any equivalent law.
• Cira does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Nothing in the app, in any report it generates, or in any communication from us should be read as a medical opinion, a diagnosis, or a recommendation to start, stop, or change any treatment.
• Cira is not an emergency service and cannot detect or respond to emergencies. If you or the person you care for is having a medical emergency, or if you are ever unsure whether it is an emergency, call 112 (or your local emergency number) immediately. Do not use Cira, and do not wait for a Cira reminder, report, or alert, in an emergency situation.
• Cira never replaces a doctor, physiotherapist, speech therapist, nurse, or professional carer. Any exercise prompts, reminders, or wellbeing content offered through the app are general in nature and are not tailored medical or clinical guidance.
• Always follow the plan given by the person's own care team. If anything Cira says, or any reminder it gives, appears to conflict with instructions from a doctor, therapist, or carer, the professional's instructions take priority. Use Cira as a supportive companion alongside, never instead of, professional care.

4. Your responsibilities

When you join the waitlist or use the Service, you agree to:

• provide accurate, current information about yourself, such as your email address, and update it if it changes;
• if you are signing up on behalf of, or arranging monitoring for, another person (for example, a parent or relative), make sure that person is informed about the app, understands in plain terms what it does, and consents to using it and to family members receiving reports about them, to the extent they are able to give that consent; where the person cannot meaningfully consent themselves, you confirm you are entitled to make this decision on their behalf (for example, as their legal guardian or authorised representative) and that you are acting in their best interest;
• not rely on Cira, its reminders, or its reports in an emergency, and instead contact emergency services or the person's care team directly;
• use the Service only for its intended purpose, and not misuse, disrupt, reverse-engineer, or attempt to gain unauthorised access to it;
• keep any account credentials confidential and tell us promptly if you believe your account has been used without your permission.

5. Acceptable use and intellectual property

You may not use the Service to break the law, infringe someone else's rights, transmit harmful code, harvest data about other users, or interfere with the Service's normal operation. The Cira name, logo, website content, app, and underlying software are owned by HT HOUSEBOATS sp. z o.o. or our licensors and are protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws. We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to use the Service for its intended personal, non-commercial purpose. You may not copy, modify, distribute, sell, or create derivative works from the Service without our prior written permission. Any feedback or suggestions you send us may be used by us without obligation to you.

6. Liability

The Service, including the waitlist and any early-access version of the app, is currently offered free of charge and, where it is early-access software, is provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including as to accuracy, reliability, or fitness for a particular purpose. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, HT HOUSEBOATS sp. z o.o. shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages, or for any harm arising from reliance on the Service in place of professional medical care or emergency services. Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits any liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited, including liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud, or for any liability that European Union or Polish law does not allow us to exclude. If you are a consumer, your statutory rights under EU and Polish consumer protection law — including any applicable rights relating to digital services and unfair contract terms — remain fully unaffected by these Terms.

7. Changes to these Terms and termination

We may update these Terms from time to time, for example as the Service develops from a waitlist into a full app. If we make material changes, we will update the effective date above and, where reasonably practicable, notify waitlist members and users by email or a notice on our website. Continued use of the Service after changes take effect means you accept the updated Terms. You may stop using the Service and ask to be removed from the waitlist at any time by emailing us at marcinbaranowski1979+cira@gmail.com. We may also suspend or terminate access to the Service, including waitlist entries or early-access accounts, if we reasonably believe these Terms have been violated, or if we decide to discontinue the Service, in each case with notice where reasonably practicable.

8. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of Poland, without prejudice to any mandatory consumer protection rules of the European Union or of the country in which you are habitually resident, which continue to apply for your benefit where applicable. If you are a consumer resident in the EU, you retain the protections granted to you by the mandatory laws of your country of residence, and nothing in these Terms limits your right to bring proceedings before the competent courts of your own country or to rely on EU consumer protection mechanisms, including out-of-court dispute resolution where available.
