Terms of Use

1. License

We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the app on devices you own or control, for your own non-commercial use, in line with these Terms and the rules of the store you got it from. You may not copy, modify, distribute, sell, rent, reverse engineer or decompile the app, except where the law allows it despite this restriction. The app is licensed, not sold.

2. Not medical advice

3. Estimates and nutrition data

Photo estimates are produced by AI and cannot see hidden ingredients, cooking fats or exact weights. Food data comes from sources including USDA FoodData Central and Open Food Facts (available under the Open Database License) and may be incomplete or out of date. Always review results before saving, and check product labels where accuracy matters, for example for allergies. We're not affiliated with these data sources.

4. Acceptable use

Use the app lawfully and only for its intended purpose. Don't interfere with or overload our services, attempt to access them other than through the app, automate requests, bypass security or integrity checks, or upload content that is unlawful or isn't a photo of food. To keep the free service available to everyone, photo analysis is limited to 20 photo estimates per device per day, food lookups are subject to reasonable rate limits, and we may restrict access that appears automated or abusive. These limits may change.

5. Free use, ads and the Ad-Free subscription

The app's tracking features are free to use and the app is supported by ads. You can buy an optional auto-renewing Ad-Free subscription (monthly or yearly) through the App Store or Google Play. It removes ads and does not unlock other features. Prices are shown in the app before purchase and may vary by country.

Payment is charged to your Apple ID or Google account at confirmation of purchase. The subscription renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, and your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours before the period ends. You can manage or cancel it in your account settings; deleting the app doesn't cancel it. Refunds are handled by Apple or Google under their policies. Purchases don't transfer between the App Store and Google Play. Your statutory consumer rights are not affected.

6. Your content and our intellectual property

You own the data you enter and the photos you take. You give us only the permission needed to process them to provide the features you request, as described in the Privacy Policy. The app, its design, text, graphics and the C for Calories name and logo belong to us or our licensors.

7. Third-party services

The app relies on services such as the App Store, Google Play, Google AdMob, Firebase, cloud hosting, OpenRouter and AI model providers, and nutrition databases. Their terms apply to their services, and we're not responsible for their availability or conduct. We may change, suspend or discontinue features or the app at any time.

8. Disclaimer and limitation of liability

To the extent permitted by law, the app is provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of accuracy, fitness for a particular purpose or uninterrupted availability. To the extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect or consequential damages, loss of data, or harm arising from reliance on estimates or nutrition information, and our total liability is limited to the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim. Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law, including for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud, or your mandatory rights as a consumer.

9. Additional terms for the Apple App Store

If you downloaded the app from the Apple App Store: these Terms are between you and us, not Apple, and we, not Apple, are solely responsible for the app and its content. Apple has no obligation to provide maintenance or support. If the app fails to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price, if any; to the maximum extent permitted by law, Apple has no other warranty obligation. We, not Apple, are responsible for addressing any claims relating to the app, including product liability claims, claims that the app fails to conform to legal or regulatory requirements, consumer protection claims, and intellectual property infringement claims. You confirm that you are not located in a country subject to a U.S. Government embargo or designated as a “terrorist supporting” country, and that you are not on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties. You must comply with applicable third-party terms when using the app. Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and may enforce them against you. Where these Terms don't cover something, Apple's Standard Licensed Application End User License Agreement applies.

10. Google Play

If you downloaded the app from Google Play, the Google Play Terms of Service also apply to your download and purchases.

11. Termination

You can stop using the app at any time by uninstalling it. We may suspend access to our online services if you breach these Terms or misuse the service. Sections that by their nature should survive termination will survive.

12. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of Slovenia, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. If you are a consumer, you also keep the protection of the mandatory laws of your country of residence and may bring proceedings in the courts there. EU consumers can also use the EU online dispute resolution platform.

13. Changes and contact

We may update these Terms when the app or the law changes. We'll post the new version here with a new effective date; continuing to use the app after that means you accept it, except where the law requires your explicit agreement. Questions: support@cforcalories.si.
