Terms of Service

WellnessCheck Terms of Service

Effective Date:** January 20, 2026

Last Updated:** January 20, 2026

1. Agreement to Terms

By downloading, installing, or using WellnessCheck (“the App”), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service (“Terms”). If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use the App.

WellnessCheck is developed and operated by Stricklin Development, LLC (“we,” “us,” or “our”), based in San Antonio, Texas.

2. Description of Service

WellnessCheck is a safety monitoring application designed to help people living independently stay connected with designated contacts (“Care Circle”). The App monitors for:

  • Periods of inactivity on your device
  • Potential falls (using device motion sensors)
  • Deviations from your normal activity patterns

When certain thresholds are exceeded and you do not respond to check-in prompts, the App may send SMS alerts to your Care Circle members.

3. THIS IS NOT A MEDICAL DEVICE

IMPORTANT: WellnessCheck is NOT a medical device, emergency response system, or substitute for professional medical care.

  • The App CANNOT detect medical emergencies, heart attacks, strokes, or other health conditions
  • The App CANNOT guarantee detection of falls or other incidents
  • The App does NOT contact 911 or emergency services
  • The App does NOT replace medical alert systems, Life Alert, or similar services

**WellnessCheck helps people find out sooner—not instantly.*

Response times depend entirely on your settings, your Care Circle members’ availability, and their ability to take action.

If you are experiencing a medical emergency, call 911 immediately.

4. Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years old to create an account. By using the App, you represent that you are at least 18 years of age and have the legal capacity to enter into these Terms.

To use WellnessCheck, you must create an account using a valid email address or Sign in with Apple. You are responsible for:

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

Your Consent

By adding members to your Care Circle, you authorize WellnessCheck to:

  • Send SMS messages to those individuals on your behalf
  • Share your name, status information, and location (when applicable) with those individuals during alert situations

Care Circle Member Consent

When you add someone to your Care Circle, you represent that:

  • You have that person’s permission to add them
  • They consent to receive SMS messages from WellnessCheck
  • They understand they may receive urgent messages at any time

You are solely responsible for obtaining appropriate consent from your Care Circle members.

Send alerts when you may need assistance

Standard messaging rates may apply to Care Circle members who receive SMS messages. Message frequency varies based on your settings and alert conditions.

9. Accuracy and Limitations

Detection Limitations

WellnessCheck uses your iPhone’s sensors to detect activity and potential falls. These methods have inherent limitations:

  • False positives: The App may detect a “fall” when you dropped your phone or made a sudden movement
  • False negatives: The App may fail to detect an actual fall or emergency
  • Requires app to be running: Monitoring only works when the App is active
  • Battery dependent: If your phone battery dies, monitoring stops
  • Sensor dependent: Detection accuracy varies by device model and conditions

No Guarantee of Response

We cannot guarantee that:

  • Alerts will be delivered successfully (SMS delivery depends on carriers and network conditions)
  • Your Care Circle members will see, read, or respond to alerts
  • Any particular outcome will result from using the App

You agree to:

  • Keep your Care Circle information current
  • Respond to check-in prompts when you are able
