Terms of Use

1. What KidLabelScan is

KidLabelScan reads the text of an ingredients list from a photo and matches it against a curated database of food additives. It shows the labelling and regulatory information recorded in that database. It is an information tool for parents and carers.

2. What KidLabelScan is not

KidLabelScan is not medical, nutritional or legal advice, and it does not decide whether a food is safe for an individual child. It reports E-additives and the allergen wording printed on the label; paid plans add sugar, sweetener and hydrogenated/trans-fat indicators. It does not assess salt, calories or overall nutritional quality. Read the full disclaimer.

3. Accuracy

Reading text from photos can be imperfect, packaging changes over time, and our database is updated periodically. Always check the physical label on the product before making a decision. We provide the service on an “as is” basis, without warranties of accuracy or completeness.

4. Acceptable use

• Use KidLabelScan for personal, non-commercial purposes.
• Do not scrape, bulk-download or resell our database or results.
• Do not upload images that contain other people’s personal information.
• Do not attempt to disrupt, overload or reverse-engineer the service.

5. Intellectual property

The KidLabelScan name, interface and curated database content belong to us. The underlying regulatory sources belong to their publishers and are linked from each additive card.

6. Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for decisions made on the basis of information shown in KidLabelScan, or for any indirect or consequential loss arising from use of the service.

7. Changes and contact

We may update these terms; the date above will change. Questions, corrections or complaints can be sent through the feedback form.
