TetherHeart is where emotional intelligence meets secure connection. We build tools to help

This Privacy Policy explains how TetherHeart LLC collects, uses, protects, and shares your data
when you use our smart rings, mobile app, and website

Your core experience will remain unaffected.

Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy to reflect changes in our services or legal requirements. You'll be
notified
via email or in-app messaging when updates are significant.
Smart Ring Compatibility & Exclusivity
TetherHeart smart rings are exclusively designed to pair with each other - forming a secure,
one-to-one emotional and biometric connection.
- - Rings cannot be paired with third-party smart rings (e.g., Oura, Whoop, Ultrahuman)
- - If unlinked, a ring becomes a "solo" mode device and cannot re-pair unless reset
- - This pairing system is part of our emotional fidelity and privacy-first design philosophy
We do not support or guarantee functionality with third-party devices. Attempting external
pairing
may result in limited or unsupported behavior.
Governing Law
These Terms are governed by the laws of North Carolina, USA unless superseded by applicable
local law.
