Welcome to Doris. These Terms and Conditions govern your access to and use of the Doris website, pet care companion, pet health dashboard, document upload features, and related services.
By accessing or using Doris, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the service.
01About Doris
Doris is a digital pet care companion designed to help pet owners better understand their pet's health information, organize pet health records, prepare for veterinary visits, and know what questions to ask a veterinarian.
Doris may allow you to describe symptoms, upload pet-related documents, store pet health history, and receive general educational information based on available sources and the information you provide.
Doris is not a veterinary clinic, veterinary hospital, emergency service, diagnostic provider, or substitute for professional veterinary care.
02Not Veterinary Advice
The information provided by Doris is for general educational and informational purposes only.
Doris does not:
- Diagnose medical conditions
- Prescribe treatment
- Replace a licensed veterinarian
- Provide emergency veterinary care
- Guarantee the accuracy of any health interpretation
- Confirm whether your pet does or does not have a medical condition
You should always consult a licensed veterinarian before making decisions about your pet's health, treatment, medication, diet, emergency care, or medical management.
If your pet may be experiencing an emergency, contact a veterinarian, emergency animal hospital, or local veterinary service immediately.
03Use of Uploaded Information
You may choose to upload pet-related documents, including lab reports, prescriptions, imaging files, pathology reports, photos, or other records.
By uploading information, you confirm that:
- You have the right to upload and share the information
- The information relates to your own pet or a pet you are authorized to care for
- The information you provide is accurate to the best of your knowledge
- You understand that Doris' output depends on the quality and completeness of the information provided
Doris may use the uploaded information to help organize your pet's health history, summarize records, identify topics to discuss with your veterinarian, and provide general explanatory guidance.
04User Accounts and Login
Some features may require you to create an account or log in through supported login methods, such as Google, Apple, WeChat, or other available options.
You are responsible for:
- Keeping your login details secure
- Ensuring your account information is accurate
- Preventing unauthorized access to your account
- Notifying us if you believe your account has been compromised
We reserve the right to suspend or terminate access if we believe an account is being misused or used in violation of these Terms.
05Pet Health Dashboard
If you use the pet health dashboard, Doris may help you store and organize information related to your pet, such as health records, uploaded documents, observations, and previous conversations.
The dashboard is intended to support organization and understanding. It should not be treated as a complete medical record or as a replacement for records maintained by your veterinarian.
You remain responsible for checking information, maintaining copies of important documents, and seeking professional veterinary advice when needed.
06Emergency Donor Network
Doris may offer or develop an optional emergency pet blood donor network. Participation in this network is voluntary.
By registering interest in the donor network, you understand that:
- Registration does not commit your pet to donate blood
- You may decide each time whether to participate
- You may opt out at any time
- Doris does not store blood or operate as a blood bank
- Doris does not guarantee that a donor or recipient match will be found
- All medical decisions must be made by qualified veterinary professionals
Any donation process, donor suitability assessment, blood typing, medical screening, collection, transfusion, and related procedure must be handled by licensed veterinary professionals or authorized veterinary facilities.
Doris is intended only to help support communication and connection where appropriate. It does not provide veterinary approval, donor eligibility confirmation, or medical clearance.

When using Doris, you agree not to:
- Upload false, misleading, harmful, or unlawful content
- Upload information about pets you are not authorized to represent

You agree to use Doris responsibly and to seek professional veterinary care when appropriate.
08AI-Generated and Automated Information
Some Doris features may use artificial intelligence or automated systems to help explain information, summarize records, or suggest questions to ask your veterinarian.
AI-generated responses may be incomplete, inaccurate, outdated, or not applicable to your pet's specific condition. You should review all information carefully and confirm important points with a licensed veterinarian.
Doris may improve over time, but we do not guarantee that every response will be accurate, complete, or suitable for your pet's individual situation.

We do not control third-party websites, services, medical providers, veterinary clinics, emergency hospitals, donor facilities, or external platforms. We are not responsible for their content, actions, policies, availability, or accuracy.
10Privacy and Data Protection
Your use of Doris is also governed by our Privacy Policy. The Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and protect information you provide.
Because pet health records may contain sensitive information about you, your pet, your household, your veterinarian, or your location, you should only upload information you are comfortable sharing with Doris.
