Terms of use

Effective date: 5 November 2026

These terms apply to your use of HeatSaathi: Heatwave & Water (formerly LifeBalance; package com.lifebalance.app), a heat-aware water and wellness app for Android and Wear OS, and to this website.

Who we are

HeatSaathi: Heatwave & Water is offered by Numford, an individual trader based in India ("we", "us"). You can reach us at support@numford.com.

Accepting these terms

By installing or using HeatSaathi: Heatwave & Water you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the app. HeatSaathi is intended for general audiences. If you are under the age of majority where you live, please ask a parent or guardian before making a tip.

License to use

We give you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to install and use HeatSaathi: Heatwave & Water on Android devices you own or control, for your own non-commercial use. You may not copy, resell, redistribute or sublicense the app, or reverse engineer it except where the law allows it.

Not medical advice

HeatSaathi gives a water goal, a daily Balance score and general tips. It is not medical advice and does not diagnose or treat any condition. If you have a heart or kidney condition, or any other medical condition, ask your doctor how much to drink. Heat levels shown in the app are the app's own estimates from weather forecasts, not official warnings. For official heat warnings, check your national or local weather authority.

Third-party services

The app uses services run by other parties under their own terms: MET Norway for weather forecasts, data.gov.in for air quality in India, and, only if you choose them, Health Connect, Google Drive for your own backup and Google Play. We are not responsible for these services or for changes they make. Forecasts and air quality readings may be late, wrong or unavailable.

Acceptable use

• Use the app lawfully and only for its intended purpose.
• Do not tamper with purchases, unlock paid content without paying, or interfere with how the app works.
• Do not copy, extract or republish the app's content, artwork or code.

Purchases and refunds

HeatSaathi is free. You can optionally leave a tip ("Support HeatSaathi") through Google Play. A tip is a one-time payment for a small, medium or large amount. It does not unlock any features, and the app only remembers on your device that you tipped so it can show a thank-you badge. If we add paid features later, we will update these terms first.

Payments, taxes, receipts and refunds are handled by Google Play under Google's terms. See Google's refund policy. If you live in the EU or UK, your statutory consumer rights, such as any right to withdraw or to a remedy for faulty digital content, are not affected by these terms.

Ads

HeatSaathi contains no ads and does not show promotions from other companies.

Your data

HeatSaathi has no accounts. Your water log, profile, mood notes and other entries are stored on your own device, and we do not receive them. The app sends only an approximate location (or a state name in India) to the weather and air quality services it uses. See our privacy policy for details.

Intellectual property

The app, including its content, artwork, text, design and code, belongs to Numford or its licensors and is protected by copyright and other laws. These terms give you a license to use the app, not ownership of it. Open-source and third-party components stay under their own licenses.

Disclaimers

The app is provided "as is" and "as available". We try to make it reliable, but we do not promise that it will work on every device, be uninterrupted or be free of errors, to the extent the law allows. You are responsible for how you use the information in the app and for your own health decisions.

Limitation of liability

To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for indirect or consequential loss, or for loss of data or profit arising from your use of the app. Our total liability for any claim relating to the app is limited to the amount you paid for it. Nothing in these terms excludes or limits liability that cannot be excluded or limited by law, or rights you have under mandatory consumer law.

Changes to the app and these terms

We may update, add or remove features of the app, for example to follow Android changes, fix problems or improve it. We may also update these terms. Changes will be posted here with a new effective date. If you keep using the app after a change, you accept the updated terms.

Termination

You can stop using the app at any time by uninstalling it. We may suspend or end your access if you break these terms or misuse the app. Sections that by their nature should survive, such as intellectual property, disclaimers and limitation of liability, stay in effect.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of India, and courts in India have jurisdiction over disputes. If you are a consumer in the EU or UK, you keep the protection of the mandatory consumer laws of the country where you live, and you may also bring a claim in the courts of that country.
