Legal
Terms of Use
Last updated: 14 August 2026 · Applies to the myNutrition iPhone app and this website.
1. Who we are
myNutrition is operated by Halocline Labs Limited, a company incorporated in Hong Kong (company number 80831136), registered office: Unit 2904-05, 29/F, Universal Trade Centre, 3 Arbuthnot Road, Central, Hong Kong — referred to below as “we”, “us” or “the operator”. You can contact us at support@mynutrition.fitness.
2. These terms, and Apple's terms
These terms cover your use of the myNutrition app and of this website. If you download the app from the App Store, your license to use it is also governed by Apple’s standard Licensed Application End User License Agreement; where that agreement and these terms overlap, these terms add to it rather than replace it. Any purchase, billing or refund is handled by Apple under the App Store terms — we cannot process refunds ourselves.
3. Not medical advice
myNutrition provides general nutrition information — food logging, reference nutrient values and informational notices. It is not a medical device and does not provide medical advice, diagnosis or treatment. Nutrient targets and safe-intake notices are based on published reference values for the general population and are not a substitute for professional advice. Always consult a qualified health professional about any medical condition, diet change, pregnancy, allergy or medication — and never ignore professional advice because of something shown in the app.
Food-composition figures come from curated sources checked against official food-composition data, but food varies and errors are possible; figures are estimates, not guarantees. If you spot something that looks wrong, please tell us.
4. Age
myNutrition is intended for users aged 16 and over, matching our Privacy Policy.
5. Your data
The app is local-first: what you log stays on your device, encrypted, unless you choose otherwise. How data is handled — including the routine internet calls for barcode and product lookups and the optional cloud backup — is described in the Privacy Policy, which forms part of these terms.
Before you can use the app you set up an account on the device itself: you choose a password, and the app gives you a recovery code. There is no guest mode. That password and that recovery code protect the encrypted data on your phone whether or not you ever turn on cloud backup. If you lose both, the data on the device cannot be recovered — by you or by us — and the only way back in is the reset offered on the app’s lock screen, which erases the app and its data so you can start again.
6. Optional cloud backup account
If you enable cloud backup you create an account with your email address. Backups are encrypted on your device before upload and we store only the encrypted copy — we cannot read it, and we cannot recover it if you lose both your password and your recovery code. Keeping those safe is your responsibility. You can delete your account and stored backups at any time from the app. We may suspend or delete an account that is used to abuse the service (for example attempting to disrupt it, or storing material unrelated to the app’s backup function), and we may withdraw or change the backup service itself with reasonable notice where practicable.
7. Fair use
Please don’t: attempt to breach, probe or overload the app’s or this website’s security or infrastructure; use the app or website for anything unlawful; or copy, sell or redistribute the app, its catalog or its branding. You may not reverse engineer the app except to the extent a law that applies to you expressly permits it despite this term.
8. Intellectual property
The app, this website, the myNutrition name, logo and design, and the curated catalog are ours or our licensors’. Your data is yours — everything you log or back up remains your own, and nothing in these terms gives us any right to use it.
9. Service changes
We may update the app and website over time — adding, changing or removing features. Because the app is local-first, an update never deletes the data on your device, though a feature’s presentation may change.
10. Disclaimers and liability
Nothing in these terms excludes or limits anything that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited. That includes liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, liability for fraud, and any statutory consumer rights you have in your country of residence.
Subject to that: the app and website are provided “as is” and, to the extent the law allows, we exclude implied warranties and are not liable for indirect or consequential loss, or for loss of data you have not backed up. Where liability cannot be excluded but can be limited, our total liability to you is limited to US$50.
11. Ending use
You can stop using the app at any time; deleting the app removes it and its on-device data from your phone (see the Privacy Policy for cloud-account deletion). We may terminate these terms with you if you seriously or repeatedly breach them.
12. Changes to these terms
If we change these terms in a way that matters, we will update this page and its date, and for significant changes we will say so in the app or by email if you have a backup account. The version on this page applies from its stated date.
13. Governing law
These terms, and any dispute about them, are governed by the laws of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, where the operator is based. This does not take away mandatory protections — including consumer rights and data-protection rights — that the law of your country of residence gives you and that cannot be excluded by agreement.
