Terms of use
The short, plain terms for this website, the tap demonstration and the Rythmo apps.
Effective 16 September 2026
About these terms
These terms cover rythmo.com.au, the tap demonstration on it, and the Rythmo breathing rate apps for iPhone, Apple Watch, Android and Garmin. Rythmo Triage is covered by each organisation's licence agreement, not by these terms. Rythmo is a business name of Lachlan Sallabank, ABN 69 631 803 003, Victoria, Australia. By using the site or an app, you agree to these terms.
What the site, the demonstration and the apps are for
Rythmo counts a rate per minute from your own taps. The apps are a reference and training tool. The demonstration on this website is a demonstration only and is not for clinical use.
Disclaimer
Rythmo is a reference and training tool. It reports a rate calculated from your own taps and displays published reference ranges for comparison. It does not diagnose, does not decide treatment, and does not replace your clinical assessment. Confirm every reading before you act on it or document it.
For medical advice, diagnosis or treatment, consult a qualified healthcare professional.
Your clinical judgement
Clinical judgement stays with you. You are responsible for every assessment and decision, and for confirming any reading before you act on it or document it. The rate is calculated from your taps, so it is only as good as your observation of each breath.
What is free and what is not for sale
The Rythmo device is in development and has not been built. It is not for sale, and there are no orders, deposits or pre-sales. Rythmo's breathing rate apps are free, with no in-app purchase. The iPhone and Apple Watch app is on the App Store, the Garmin app is on the Connect IQ Store, and the Android app is on Google Play. Rythmo Triage is licensed to organisations only. It is not sold to individuals or the general public. Registering your interest or taking the survey does not create any obligation for you or for Rythmo.
Provided as is
To the extent permitted by law, the website, the demonstration and the apps are provided as is, without warranties of any kind, and Rythmo is not liable for any loss arising from their use.
Nothing in these terms excludes, restricts or modifies any consumer guarantee, right or remedy you have under the Australian Consumer Law, or any other right that the law does not allow to be excluded.
Concept renders
Images of the device on this website are AI-generated concept renders, not photographs. The finished device, if it is made, will differ.
Names, logos and content
The Rythmo name, wordmark and logos, and the content of this website, belong to Rythmo. The tap-per-breath method itself is published in the peer reviewed literature and Rythmo does not claim it.
Apple, iPhone and Apple Watch are trademarks of Apple Inc., registered in the U.S. and other countries. Android and Google Play are trademarks of Google LLC. Garmin and Connect IQ are trademarks of Garmin Ltd. or its subsidiaries. Rythmo is not affiliated with or endorsed by these companies.
