⚠️ 1. CRITICAL MEDICAL DISCLAIMER

WARNING: PNUT IS NOT A MEDICAL DEVICE AND IS NOT FDA APPROVED.

THIS APP PROVIDES INFORMATIONAL GUIDANCE ONLY. It is not a substitute for reading product labels, consulting with healthcare professionals, or exercising your own judgment.

  • AI analysis may be inaccurate or incomplete
  • The app may fail to detect allergens that are present

  • ✓ Consult with allergists and medical professionals

BY USING THIS APP, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THESE LIMITATIONS AND ACCEPT ALL RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH YOUR USE.

2. About PNut

PNut is a mobile application that helps users identify common food allergens in product ingredients by using AI-powered image analysis. The app supports 40+ languages and provides instant, color-coded safety indicators based on your allergen preferences. The app is developed and provided by Sufiyan Yasa.

3. Purpose & Accuracy

PNut uses artificial intelligence (OpenAI Vision API) to interpret ingredient labels in any language and detect potential allergens. Results are for informational purposes only and are not medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

While we strive for accuracy, AI analysis may not always be 100% correct. Users should:

  • Always read actual product labels carefully
  • Verify ingredients with manufacturers when in doubt
  • Consult with healthcare professionals for medical advice
  • Not rely solely on the app for life-threatening allergy decisions

PNut is an assistive tool, not a substitute for due diligence and professional medical guidance.

4. Use of the App

You agree to use PNut responsibly and lawfully. You must not:

  • Misuse, reverse-engineer, copy, or modify the app or its data
  • Use the app for any unlawful or fraudulent purposes
  • Attempt to bypass subscription limits or restrictions
  • Share your account or subscription with others

The app is for personal, non-commercial use only.

5. Subscriptions & Free Tier

Free Tier: Users receive a limited number of scans per week. The free tier resets weekly at midnight.

Premium Subscription: Unlock unlimited scans, priority support, and additional features. Subscriptions are managed via the Apple App Store and can be canceled anytime through your App Store settings.

Billing: Subscription fees are charged through your Apple ID. Prices may vary by region. Subscriptions auto-renew unless canceled at least 24 hours before the current period ends.

Refunds: Managed by Apple according to their refund policy. We do not process refunds directly.

6. Data & Privacy

Images you scan are processed securely by OpenAI's Vision API to detect allergens. We do not store your scanned images on our servers after analysis. Your allergen preferences are stored locally on your device.

We do not sell personal data to third parties. For full details, please review our Privacy Policy.
