    TERMS OF USE

    Terms of Use

    These terms are a contract between you and Horus Teknoloji ve Dijital Hizmetler A.Ş. ("Horus", "we"), Istanbul, Türkiye. By using PureScan you accept them. If you do not accept them, do not use PureScan.

    1. What the service is

    PureScan lets you scan the barcode of a food or cosmetic product, enter the barcode number, photograph a receipt, or search for a product by name, and shows a score together with a breakdown of its nutrition, additives, allergens and processing level. Scores are personalised using the health and dietary profile you provide.

    2. This is information, not medical advice

    This is the most important clause in this document. Please read it.

    • PureScan is an information tool. It is not a medical device, and it does not diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any condition.
    • Scores are calculated from public community databases and published criteria such as Nutri-Score and the NOVA classification. These databases are contributed to by volunteers and can be wrong, incomplete or out of date.
    • Additive risk notes describe what published sources associate with a substance. Many are debated rather than settled. They are not a verdict on your health.
    • If you have a food allergy or intolerance, always read the physical package. Manufacturers reformulate products without database updates. Never rely on this app alone to decide whether something is safe for you to eat or apply.
    • Consult a doctor, pharmacist or registered dietitian before making decisions about your diet, particularly if you are pregnant, managing a chronic condition, or responsible for a child's diet.

    3. Your account

    You can scan and read product analyses with the pseudonymous account created by the app. Apple or Google sign-in is requested when you want cross-device continuity or account-backed features such as saved history, favourites and family profiles. If you link a sign-in, you are responsible for keeping access to it secure. One account is for one person; family profiles exist so you can track household members from your own account, not so several people can share one login. You must be at least 13 (16 in some countries), or have a parent's consent.

    4. Free plan and Premium

    Scanning products, reading the full breakdown, and personal allergen and diet alerts are free, without limit. Premium adds searching by name, unlimited history and favourites, receipt scanning, family profiles, and the coaching and summary features.

    Free-plan limits affect what is displayed. Scans beyond the limit stay stored and reappear if you subscribe.

    4.1 Subscriptions

    • Premium is sold as an auto-renewing subscription through the Apple App Store or Google Play. The price, billing period and currency are shown in the app before you confirm.
    • Payment is charged to your store account on confirmation.
    • It renews automatically unless you turn off auto-renewal at least 24 hours before the current period ends. Your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours of the period ending.
    • Manage or cancel it in your Apple or Google account settings. We cannot cancel it for you, and uninstalling the app does not cancel it.
    • Refunds are handled by Apple or Google under their policies, not by us. Where consumer law gives you a withdrawal right, that right applies.
    • We may change the price. An increase never applies to a period you have already paid for, and you will be told before it takes effect so you can cancel.

    5. What you may not do

    • Scrape, bulk-export or resell the product data or scores.
    • Reverse engineer the app, or attempt to reach another user's data.
    • Use the service to give medical advice to other people as if it were professional advice.
    • Upload receipt images containing someone else's personal information without their consent.
    • Interfere with the service or the community databases it relies on, including through automated request volume.

    6. Product data and attribution

    Product information comes from Open Food Facts and Open Beauty Facts, licensed under the Open Database License (ODbL). Those databases remain the property of their contributors. Our scores, wording, design and software are ours.

    7. Your content

    Receipt photos and profile details remain yours. You grant us only the licence needed to run the service for you — storing your data, and passing product text or a receipt image to our AI provider to read it. We do not use your content to train models, and we do not publish it.

    8. Availability

    We aim to keep the service running but do not guarantee it will be uninterrupted or error-free. It depends on third-party databases and services that can fail or change. We may modify or discontinue features; if we discontinue a paid feature materially, we will offer a pro-rata refund for the unused period.

    9. Liability

    To the extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect or consequential loss, and our total liability in any twelve-month period is limited to what you paid us in that period. Nothing here excludes liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud, or any other liability that cannot lawfully be excluded — and nothing here removes the statutory rights you have as a consumer.

    10. Ending the agreement

    You may stop using the service and delete your account at any time from Profile → Account. We may suspend or close an account that breaches these terms, with notice where practical. Deleting your account does not automatically cancel a subscription bought through Apple or Google — cancel that in your store account.

    11. Governing law

    These terms are governed by Turkish law, and the courts of Istanbul have jurisdiction. If you are a consumer resident in the EU or UK, you keep the protection of the mandatory consumer law of your country of residence and may bring proceedings there.
