TERMS OF SERVICE
Last updated: 21.12.2024
Welcome to RealHorse!
We are thrilled to have you as a user of our mobile application dedicated to helping horse owners monitor their horses' soundness. Please take a moment to review these Terms of Service, as they outline the conditions that govern your use of RealHorse.
- GENERAL
1.1. RealHorse is a mobile application designed to assist horse owners in monitoring their horses' movement symmetry using advanced computer vision technology. RealHorse is provided by KeyDiagnostics, a Danish limited liability company registered under VAT number DK38109286 ("KeyDiagnostics," "we," or "us"). These Terms of Service (these "Terms") apply to and govern your use of RealHorse, including any services provided through or in connection with the application. You can find more information about KeyDiagnostics and RealHorse on our website at www.realhorse.com.
1.2. RealHorse utilizes cutting-edge technology to analyze your horse's movements and extract essential information about the movement. By utilizing the data generated, RealHorse offers valuable metrics and insights related to your horse’s movement and especially in relation to movement symmetry, which can be used to monitor the existence of potential lameness causing asymmetric movement and monitor the development of a horse’s movement symmetry over time. You can also share your horse’s movement data with other users of RealHorse and experts/veterinarians, who can advise you on how to read the data and guide you in how to react to the data.
1.3. The information derived from your horse's movements and other RealHorse usage is continuously updated, even when your device is offline. We recommend keeping your device online to ensure you receive a comprehensive summary of your RealHorse data and the best user experience. It's essential to maintain accurate information about yourself and your horse to obtain the most precise insights from RealHorse.
1.4. By downloading or using RealHorse, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agreed to abide by these Terms. You also confirm that you possess the legal capacity, such as being at least 18 years old or obtaining permission from your legal guardian, to accept these Terms. Additionally, you affirm that all personal data and information you provide to us are accurate and complete. Please note that we have a separate Privacy Policy that outlines how we handle personal information.
- USER ACCOUNT
2.1. To utilize RealHorse, you must create a user account (your "Account"). During the registration process, you will be required to provide necessary information, and it is your responsibility to ensure the accuracy of this information. You must be at least 18 years old to create an Account. If you are under 18 years old, you must obtain permission from your legal guardian. Account creation options include using your Apple, Google, Facebook, or other Third-party accounts (“Third-party accounts”) or email address. Access to RealHorse requires signing into your Account.
2.2. When signing in using Third-party accounts, they will provide the necessary information for your Account creation while also accessing information related to your login. You may not use someone else's Third-party account to log in, and multiple accounts for a single user are not allowed.
2.3. To begin and receive RealHorse's metrics, you must provide and regularly update information about yourself and your horse. This information enhances your ability to monitor your horse's movement.
2.4. You have the option to share your information with other RealHorse users, such as experts or veterinarians, with the Premium and Unlimited subscriptions in order to have other users guide you in how to read the movement data and how to react.
2.5. Expert Consultation and Chat Functionality
RealHorse includes a chat function that allows you to communicate with our in-app experts or veterinarians. This chat service is intended for personal, non-commercial use (advertising is prohibited) and requires an active internet connection.
Access to Expert Consultations:
Premium and Unlimited Subscribers: With your Premium or Unlimited subscription, you are entitled to one consultation per week with our in-app experts. This includes your initial inquiry and any necessary follow-up messages related to that specific issue.
Chat Answering Frequency:
Our experts aim to respond to your messages within 24-48 hours during normal office hours. While we strive to address your concerns promptly, response times may vary based on expert availability and the complexity of your inquiry. We cannot guarantee immediate or timely responses in all cases.
Unlimited Subscription Note:
The term "Unlimited" refers to the number of horses you can manage under your subscription, not the number of consultations.
2.5.2 Reservation of Rights:
Modification of Consultation Availability:
We reserve the right to modify or discontinue the provision of one consultation per week at any time, without prior notice. This may include changes to the number of consultations provided, response times, or other aspects of the chat service. We will endeavor to inform you of significant changes, but it is your responsibility to review these terms periodically for updates.
2.5.3 Expert Access to Your Data:
Your expert can view all the analysis data you have allowed them to see. You can manage these permissions in the Vet Profile section of the app.
2.5.4 Guidelines for Using the Chat Service:
- Be Thorough in Your Initial Message: Include all relevant details and specific questions about your concern. This helps our experts provide comprehensive assistance more efficiently.
- Check In-App Resources First: Before reaching out, please explore the Analysis section of the app, where expandable information drawers offer detailed explanations and answers to common questions. You might find immediate answers there. Additionally, our FAQ section provides solutions to frequently asked questions.
2.5.5 Important Note:
While our experts are here to help interpret your horse's data and provide guidance, they cannot offer a formal diagnosis remotely. For a thorough assessment of your horse's health, we recommend consulting your local veterinarian. You can easily share a detailed summary PDF of your horse's analysis with your vet directly from the app by tapping the settings wheel in the corner of any analysis summary.
2.5.6 Limitation of Liability:
We endeavor to provide accurate and helpful information; however, RealHorse and its experts are not liable for any outcomes resulting from the use of the chat service. Users are responsible for seeking professional veterinary advice for diagnoses and treatments.
2.6. If you share an account with a Premium subscription, you will share all personal and horse-related information with the other user.

Veterinary professionals available through the Services may be licensed, certified, educated, employed by, or have experience in only particular jurisdictions or within particular fields.
