NutriRoot Terms & Conditions

1. Acceptance of Terms

By downloading, installing, or using NutriRoot (the "App"), you agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions ("Terms"). If you do not agree, do not use the App. These Terms form a legally binding agreement between you and Jordan Schaefer d/b/a Aevum Dynamics.

2. Eligibility

You must be at least 13 years old to use NutriRoot. By using the App, you represent that you are 13 or older. If you are under 18, you represent that your parent or legal guardian has reviewed and agreed to these Terms on your behalf, and we strongly recommend that a parent, guardian, or healthcare provider supervise your use of calorie-tracking features. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13 — if we learn we have done so, we will delete it promptly.

3. Not Medical Advice

NutriRoot provides nutrition tracking tools, calorie estimates, and general wellness information for informational and educational purposes only, for both free and premium users. Nothing in the App constitutes medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment, and the App is not a medical device. The App makes no claim to treat, cure, mitigate, or prevent any disease or condition. Calorie targets, macro splits, TDEE estimates, calorie cycling schedules, and "longevity"-style scores are mathematical estimates based on population-level formulas; they are not prescriptions and may be unsuitable for your individual circumstances.

Always consult a qualified healthcare professional before making changes to your diet, exercise routine, or health plan — particularly if you are pregnant or nursing, have diabetes, kidney disease, a heart condition, a history of disordered eating, or any other medical condition. If you have or suspect you have an eating disorder, do not use calorie-restriction features of this App; resources are available at nationaleatingdisorders.org. Reliance on information provided by the App is solely at your own risk.

4. Nutrition Data — Accuracy and Limitations

(a) Sources and compilation. The App's nutrition database is compiled from public and published sources, including USDA FoodData Central, Open Food Facts, the FDA Total Diet Study, EFSA reports, Phenol-Explorer, and peer-reviewed literature. The full list of data sources is available in the App — see the Sources section at the bottom of the Daily page. Portions of the database were compiled and cross-referenced with the assistance of automated (AI) tooling. While we audit values against primary sources, the database may contain errors, omissions, or values that differ from the specific product or food item you consume. Nutrient content varies by cultivar, region, season, preparation, and brand formulation.

(b) No reliance for medical purposes. Do not rely on the App's data for medical dietary management (e.g., insulin dosing, renal diets, PKU, sodium restriction) without independently verifying values against product labels or your healthcare provider's guidance.

(c) Allergens. NUTRIROOT DOES NOT PROVIDE ALLERGEN DATA. It is solely your responsibility to know what ingredients and allergens are in the foods you eat. If you have a food allergy or intolerance, always read the physical product label and consult the manufacturer before eating. We accept no responsibility for allergic reactions arising from use of the App.

(d) Contaminant and risk data. Heavy-metal, contaminant, antinutrient, and similar values are modeled, population-level estimates, interpolated with AI assistance from published regulatory monitoring data (FDA, EFSA, WHO/JECFA, EPA) and peer-reviewed literature. They are NOT laboratory measurements of the specific item you purchased; actual exposure varies by product, source farm, soil, region, and preparation. They must not be treated as a safety certification or a hazard determination, and must not be used to diagnose, treat, or manage any medical condition, including during pregnancy. Full methodology, sources, and limitations are available in the in-App "About Contaminant Estimates" page.

5. AI-Generated Content

The AI food scanner uses Google Gemini to identify foods and estimate portion sizes and nutritional values from photos or text descriptions. These results are AI-generated estimates and may be inaccurate, incomplete, or unsuitable for people who require precise nutritional data. We make no warranty as to the accuracy of AI-generated results. Always review and verify AI suggestions before logging them, and do not rely on them for medical dietary management.

6. User Accounts

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials. Notify us immediately at aevumdynamics@gmail.com if you suspect unauthorized access to your account. We are not liable for any loss resulting from unauthorized use of your account. You may not share your account or transfer it to another person.

7. Privacy

Your use of the App is also governed by our Privacy Policy, available in the App and on this site. By using the App, you consent to the data practices described in the Privacy Policy.

8. Data Retention and Account Deletion

You may permanently delete your account and all associated data at any time via Settings → Delete Account. Free accounts inactive for 90 days may be purged automatically. Expired subscriber accounts may be purged 90 days after their subscription end date. We will not retain your personal data after deletion except where required by law.

9. Subscriptions and Billing

NutriRoot Pro is an auto-renewing premium subscription sold through the Apple App Store and Google Play Store, managed via RevenueCat. Key terms:

• Price and billing period are displayed in the App before purchase.
• Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current billing period.
• You can cancel at any time in your device's subscription settings (iOS: Settings → Apple ID → Subscriptions; Android: Play Store → Payments & subscriptions). Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current period; you keep access until then.
• Refunds are governed by Apple's or Google's applicable refund policies — we do not process payments and cannot issue refunds directly.
• If your payment method fails, you may receive a grace period during which access continues; access is revoked if payment is not resolved before the grace period ends.
• Prices may change; we will provide notice as required by the applicable app store, and changes apply only to subsequent billing periods.

10. Acceptable Use

You agree not to: (a) reverse-engineer, decompile, or disassemble the App; (b) use the App for any unlawful purpose; (c) attempt to gain unauthorized access to our systems or other users' data; (d) scrape, bulk-export, resell, or redistribute the App's nutrition database except as permitted by the open-data licenses identified in Section 12; (e) upload content that is harmful, offensive, or violates any third-party rights; or (f) use the App to build or train a competing product without our written consent.

11. Third-Party Services

The App integrates with third-party services including Google Gemini (AI), USDA FoodData Central, Open Food Facts, Apple HealthKit, Google Health Connect, and RevenueCat. Your use of these services is subject to their respective terms and privacy policies. We are not responsible for the practices, availability, or content of third-party services.

12. Intellectual Property and Data Attribution

All App code, design, trademarks, and original content are owned by or licensed to Jordan Schaefer d/b/a Aevum Dynamics and are protected by applicable intellectual property laws.

Attribution: portions of the food database are derived from (i) USDA FoodData Central (public domain, fdc.nal.usda.gov) and (ii) Open Food Facts (openfoodfacts.org), made available under the Open Database License (ODbL) v1.0 (opendatacommons.org/licenses/odbl/1-0). Data derived from Open Food Facts remains subject to the ODbL, including its attribution and share-alike terms; nothing in these Terms restricts rights granted by that license with respect to that data.

13. Disclaimers

THE APP IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE APP WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE, OR THAT NUTRITIONAL, CONTAMINANT, OR AI-GENERATED DATA WILL BE ACCURATE, CURRENT, OR COMPLETE. THE APP PROVIDES NO ALLERGEN INFORMATION AND MAKES NO HEALTH-OUTCOME CLAIMS.

14. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, JORDAN SCHAEFER D/B/A AEVUM DYNAMICS SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF DATA, HEALTH OUTCOMES, PROFITS, OR GOODWILL, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF THE APP — EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ANY CLAIM ARISING FROM THESE TERMS OR THE APP SHALL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US IN THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM OR (B) $100 USD. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW CERTAIN LIMITATIONS, SO SOME OF THE ABOVE MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

15. Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Jordan Schaefer d/b/a Aevum Dynamics from any claims, liabilities, damages, and expenses (including reasonable attorney fees) arising from your use of the App, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of any third-party rights.

16. Changes to Terms

We may update these Terms at any time. We will notify you of material changes via in-app notice or email at least 14 days before they take effect where practicable. Continued use of the App after the effective date of updated Terms constitutes your acceptance of the changes.

17. Assignment and Successor Entity

We may assign these Terms, and all rights and obligations under them, without your consent to a successor entity — including a limited liability company or corporation formed to operate the App. Upon such assignment, references to "Jordan Schaefer d/b/a Aevum Dynamics" shall refer to the successor entity. You may not assign these Terms without our written consent.

18. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas, United States, without regard to conflict-of-law provisions.

Arbitration: any dispute arising from these Terms or the App shall be resolved through binding individual arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Consumer Arbitration Rules. YOU AND WE EACH WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL AND TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION OR CLASS-WIDE ARBITRATION. Either party may instead bring an individual claim in small-claims court, and nothing in this section prevents either party from seeking injunctive relief in a court of competent jurisdiction.

Opt-out: you may opt out of this arbitration agreement by emailing aevumdynamics@gmail.com with the subject "Arbitration Opt-Out" within 30 days of first accepting these Terms.

Severability: if any provision of these Terms is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in full force and effect.
