Terms of Use
Version 1.0 · Effective date: 4 November 2026
1. Parties
These terms are between you and Armagan Ercan, who operates Pathive as a sole proprietor doing business in Canada under the registered business name Areonex. Approastery is the consumer brand under which the app is published; it is not a separate company.
Contact: hello@pathive.app · 250 University Avenue, Suite 200, Toronto, ON M5H 3E5, Canada
By starting to use the app you accept these terms. If you downloaded the app from the App Store, Apple's Standard Licensed Application End User License Agreement (EULA) also applies; where it conflicts with these terms, the EULA prevails as regards your rights towards Apple.
2. Age limit
Pathive is only for people aged 18 and over. When you start, you confirm that you are 18 or older. If you are under 18, do not use the app.
3. Account
You can start without an account; your data is then kept in an anonymous account. If you save the account with your e-mail address or Apple, you can sign in on another device. Data in an anonymous account may not be recoverable if the app is deleted or you change devices; anonymous accounts unused for 180 days are deleted. Do not share your sign-in codes.
4. What Pathive does and does not offer
Pathive offers AI-generated routes, steps, suggestions and a coach chat for your goals.
- This content is general guidance, not professional advice.
- Pathive does not give medical, financial or legal advice. Routes for savings goals are not investment or financial advice.
- AI can make mistakes and produce incomplete or unsuitable content. You decide whether to follow a suggestion.
- Goals about treatment, illness or self-harm are not accepted; the coach does not answer medical questions.
- Pathive is not a crisis or emergency service. In an emergency, call your local emergency number (112 in the EU and Türkiye, 911 in Canada and the US).
5. Fitness and safety
- Before starting a new exercise programme, consult a doctor, especially if you have a health condition, an injury or are pregnant.
- If you feel pain, dizziness, shortness of breath or chest pain, stop at once and seek medical help if needed.
- You know your limits; if a suggested intensity does not suit you, reduce it or skip it.
- For fitness goals you give a separate consent in the app to the processing of health data.
6. Free plan and Pathive Pro
Pathive's core features are free. Pathive Pro is an optional subscription with more active goals at once and more coaching; the current limits are shown in the comparison in the app.
- Purchase and payment: Pro is bought through the App Store as a monthly or annual subscription. The price is shown in the app in your country's currency before you buy. Payment is charged to your Apple Account. Pro needs a saved account.
- Automatic renewal: the subscription renews automatically for the same period and price unless it is cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. The renewal is charged within the 24 hours before the period ends.
- Free trial: where offered, you are not charged if you cancel during the trial. When the trial ends, the paid subscription starts.
- Cancellation: cancel at any time in Settings → Apple Account → Subscriptions on your iPhone, or in the app under Profile → Subscription → Manage subscription. After cancelling, Pro stays on until the end of the period you paid for.
- Refunds: Apple takes the payments, so refunds are subject to Apple's terms and are requested at reportaproblem.apple.com. Statutory withdrawal and consumer rights are not affected.
- Deleting your account does not cancel the subscription: cancel it with Apple before deleting your account.
- When Pro ends: none of your data is deleted. Active goals above the Free limit are paused, and you choose which stay active.
- Price changes: prices may change. If the price of your existing subscription increases, Apple informs you in advance and asks for your consent where required.
7. Rules of use
You may not use Pathive for unlawful purposes, in a way that harms others, or to disrupt, abuse or overload the service with automated tools. Unlawful goals are refused. Daily and monthly limits apply to AI use according to your plan.
8. Sponsored suggestions
On the map, partner suggestions that fit one of your steps may be shown. They are always labelled "Sponsored" and may appear on both the Free and Pro plans. Matching happens on your device and your data is not sent to partners. When you tap a suggestion, the partner's page opens; that page, its products and terms of sale are the partner's responsibility. Sponsored suggestions are not investment or purchase advice.
9. Your content and intellectual property
The goals, notes and messages you write belong to you. You allow us to process them to provide the service (including sending them to the AI provider, see the Privacy Policy). You may use the routes and suggestions provided to you for personal purposes. The app itself, its design, name and texts belong to the operator.
10. Account deletion and termination
You can delete your account at any time in Profile → Delete account. Deletion cannot be undone; what is deleted and what remains is explained on the Account deletion page. In case of a serious breach of these terms we may suspend or end your access, with notice and reasons where possible; you can contest this decision at hello@pathive.app.
11. Changes to the service
We may improve, change or remove features. If we materially restrict a paid feature, we tell you in advance. We do not guarantee that the service will be uninterrupted or error-free.
12. Liability
Pathive is provided "as is". To the extent permitted by applicable law, we are not liable for decisions you make based on AI content, for indirect damages or for loss of profit. Our total liability is limited to the amount you paid for Pathive in the 12 months before the damage occurred. These limits do not apply to intent, gross negligence, injury to life or health, or rights you have as a consumer that cannot be excluded by contract.
13. Governing law and disputes
These terms are governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario, Canada. The mandatory consumer protection rules of the country where you live as a consumer, and the courts or bodies they make competent, are not affected. Consumers in the EU may also use the bodies of their own country. Please write to us first at hello@pathive.app; most issues can be solved directly.
14. Changes
We may update these terms. The current version is published on this page and the version you accepted is recorded in your account. We tell you in the app about significant changes and ask for your acceptance again where required.
