The essentials
You keep ownership of your journal. Nutrition numbers are estimates that you should review. Use the app responsibly, protect your account, and export any records you need to keep.
1. Using the service
These terms govern the Food Journal website and supporting services provided by Kovacs Software Solutions (“we,” “us,” or “our”). By using the service, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, do not use the service.
You must be at least 18 and meet any higher minimum age required where you live. The App Store’s content age rating is separate from this service eligibility requirement.
For the iOS app, Apple’s Standard End User License Agreement governs your license to the app unless a separate custom license is provided through the App Store. These terms address our supporting service and do not replace that license or any mandatory consumer rights.
2. Nutrition estimates and general wellness
Food Journal is a personal journaling and general wellness tool. It does not diagnose, treat, or prevent disease and does not provide medical or professional dietary advice.
AI-generated foods, portions, calories, and macronutrients may be incomplete or incorrect. Ingredients, preparation, and serving sizes affect results. Review and correct estimates before relying on them. Do not use the app to make medication decisions, determine whether a food is safe for an allergy, or manage a medical condition without advice from a qualified professional.
Automated nutrition targets are limited to eligible adults. No particular nutrition, weight, or health outcome is guaranteed. If tracking food is adversely affecting your wellbeing, stop using the app and seek appropriate support.
3. Accounts and responsible use
The app can create a guest account automatically. Keep your device and account access secure. Guest access and information stored only on your device may be lost if you remove the app or lose the device. Export information you need to keep.
Use the service lawfully. Do not upload content you lack permission to use, invade another person’s privacy, attempt to access other accounts, introduce malware, circumvent access limits, or disrupt the service. Do not misrepresent AI estimates as professionally verified information.
4. Your content and privacy
You retain ownership of the notes, photos, recordings, and other content you submit. You grant us permission to store, transmit, reproduce, and process that content only as needed to provide and maintain the service, including synchronization, AI estimation, transcription, and support. This includes processing by service providers for those purposes.
You are responsible for the content you submit and the destinations you choose for exports. Our privacy policy explains what we handle, who processes it, retention, and your choices. These terms do not replace any separate consent required for processing personal information.
The app’s software, branding, and website materials are owned by us or our licensors. These terms do not transfer those rights to you.
5. Purchases, if offered
Some versions of the app may offer optional paid features or subscriptions. The App Store purchase screen will identify the price, billing period, trial terms if any, and included features before you agree to a purchase. A future paid offer does not authorize us to charge you without your agreement.
Apple processes App Store payments. Subscriptions renew under the terms shown at purchase until canceled through your Apple account. Manage cancellation and refund requests through Apple, subject to its policies and applicable law. Deleting the app or your account does not cancel a subscription. Restore eligible purchases through the app where that option is available.
6. Availability, changes, and ending use
Internet access is required for nutrition estimates, transcription, and synchronization. We may update the service, fix errors, or change features. We do not promise uninterrupted availability, error-free AI output, or indefinite storage of your records.
You may stop using the service at any time and delete your account in Settings. We may restrict or suspend access where reasonably necessary to address misuse, security risks, or legal requirements. Where appropriate and lawful, we will explain the reason and provide an opportunity to resolve the issue. Data handling after deletion is described in our privacy policy.
7. Responsibility and your legal rights
To the extent permitted by applicable law, the service is provided on an “as available” basis without a promise that it will meet every individual need. You remain responsible for reviewing estimates, keeping copies of important records, and seeking appropriate professional advice.
To the extent permitted by law, we are not responsible for indirect losses caused by service interruptions, incorrect estimates, or loss of access. Nothing in these terms excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded, including for fraud or other conduct protected by mandatory law, or limits consumer guarantees and remedies that apply where you live.
If a provision cannot be enforced, the remaining provisions continue to apply to the extent permitted by law. You retain the benefit of any mandatory protections and access to courts or dispute processes provided by the law applicable to you.
