Terms of Service

Last Updated: August 12, 2026

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of the EatingIntel mobile application ("App") provided by Brawn Design ("we," "us," or "our"). By creating an account or using the App, you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the App.

1. Eligibility and Accounts

• You must be at least 13 years old (or the minimum age required in your jurisdiction) to use the App.
• You are responsible for the accuracy of the information you provide and for keeping your account credentials secure.
• You are responsible for all activity that occurs under your account.

2. The Service

EatingIntel helps you log meals and track nutrition using data from the USDA FoodData Central (FDC) database, Open Food Facts, and AI-assisted food recognition and coaching. Features may include photo-based logging, barcode scanning, free-text meal descriptions, a nutrition coach, and goal tracking. We may add, change, or remove features at any time.

3. No Medical Advice

The nutrition information and any AI-generated guidance provided by the App are for informational purposes only and are not a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Always consult a qualified healthcare provider for medical concerns. Do not use the App for medical purposes. You use nutrition and coaching information at your own discretion and risk.

4. Accuracy of Information

Nutrition data comes from the FDC database and from AI estimates. We do not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, or reliability of this information. AI-generated food identifications and nutrient estimates may be wrong or incomplete; please review them before relying on them.

5. Acceptable Use

You agree not to:

• Use the App for any unlawful purpose or in violation of these Terms.
• Attempt to gain unauthorized access to the App, other users' accounts, or our systems.
• Interfere with or disrupt the App, its servers, or its networks, including by reverse engineering, scraping, or overloading the service.
• Upload content that is unlawful, infringing, or that you do not have the right to submit.

6. Subscriptions and Payments

EatingIntel offers an optional auto-renewing subscription ("Premium") that removes ads from the App.

• Billing: payment is charged to your Apple App Store or Google Play account at confirmation of purchase. Current prices and billing periods (e.g., monthly or yearly) are shown in the App before you subscribe.
• Auto-renewal: subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours before the period ends.
• Managing and canceling: you can manage or cancel your subscription in your App Store or Google Play account settings. Removing the App does not cancel a subscription.
• Refunds: purchases are handled by Apple and Google and are subject to their refund policies; we cannot directly issue refunds for store purchases.
• Ad removal: ads are removed only while a subscription is active. If a subscription lapses, ads resume.

7. Advertising

Unless you subscribe to Premium, the App displays ads served through Google AdMob. See our Privacy Policy for details on advertising-related data.

8. Intellectual Property

The App, including its software, design, and content (excluding third-party data such as FDC nutrition data and content you submit), is owned by Brawn Design and protected by intellectual-property laws. We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the App for your personal, non-commercial use. You retain ownership of the content you submit and grant us the rights necessary to store, process, and display it to provide the App.

9. Third-Party Services and Open-Source Software

Some barcode results come from Open Food Facts (openfoodfacts.org), a community-maintained database made available under the Open Database License (ODbL). That data is contributed by volunteers and may be incomplete or inaccurate.

The App relies on third-party services (including Google Firebase, Google AdMob, USDA FoodData Central, Open Food Facts, and AI providers Anthropic and xAI) and incorporates open-source software libraries. Your use of those services may be subject to their own terms. A declaration of the open-source libraries included in the App and their licenses is available in the App under Settings (tap the version number three times) and, where applicable, on our App Store listings.

10. Disclaimer of Warranties

The App is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including but not limited to warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the App will be uninterrupted, error-free, or secure.

11. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Brawn Design and its affiliates will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of data, profits, or goodwill, arising from or related to your use of the App. Our total liability for any claim relating to the App will not exceed the amount you paid us, if any, in the 12 months preceding the claim.

12. Termination

You may stop using the App and delete your account at any time (see the Data Deletion page). We may suspend or terminate your access if you violate these Terms or if we discontinue the App. Provisions that by their nature should survive termination (e.g., intellectual property, disclaimers, limitation of liability) will survive.

13. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms to reflect changes in the App or legal requirements. Significant changes will be reflected in the "Last Updated" date and, where required, you will be asked to review and accept the updated Terms in the App. Continued use of the App after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

14. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Michigan, USA, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles, except where superseded by mandatory local law or the terms of the app store through which you obtained the App.
