Terms of use
In short
- FitMello helps you keep a record. It isn’t medical advice and isn’t a medical device.
- Food figures, especially from Open Food Facts, can be wrong. Check labels when it matters.
- You need a FitMello account. Keep your sign-in safe, and turn on backup if you want a copy kept for you.
- FitMello Pro is an App Store subscription that renews until you cancel it.
Using FitMello
These terms apply to the FitMello app for iPhone and Apple Watch and to this website. By using them you agree to these terms. If you get FitMello from the App Store, Apple’sLicensed Application End User License Agreement applies as well.
Not medical advice
FitMello is a personal record-keeping and fitness app. It doesn’t diagnose, treat or prevent any condition, and nothing in it is medical, nutritional or professional advice. Targets, plans, ranges and suggestions in the app are general information. Talk to a doctor or other qualified professional before starting a new diet, exercise program or medication, and about anything that concerns your health.
Your calorie plan is an estimate from standard formulas and what you enter, not a prescription. Projected dates are arithmetic at the pace you chose, not a forecast, and FitMello won’t work out a target below 1,200 calories a day, or 1,500 for men.
The GLP-1 dose log records what you enter. It doesn’t suggest, check or change doses or schedules. Always follow your prescriber’s instructions.
Exercise carries a risk of injury. Use weights you can handle safely, and stop if something hurts.
Your account
You need a FitMello account to use the app. You must be at least 13, and FitMello works out a calorie plan only for people 18 and over. Give a real email address you can reach, keep your password to yourself, and tell us if you think someone else has used your account. You can delete your account at any time in Profile, then Account. We may suspend or close an account that breaks these terms.
Food and other data
Nutrition figures come from reference data, from fatsecret, from USDA FoodData Central, from Open Food Facts, a database that anyone can add to, and from what you enter. Any of these can be incomplete or wrong. Open Food Facts data is made available under the Open Database Licence. Where accuracy matters to you, check the product label. Data from Apple Health and Apple Watch comes from your devices and is only as accurate as they are.
Your data and backups
What you record is stored on your device. If you turn on backup, a copy is kept in your FitMello account so it can be brought back to you; if you don’t, we can’t recover your diary for you. Progress photos aren’t part of the backup. Your device backups and the app’s Export a backup option are other ways to keep a copy. You’re responsible for the security of your device.
FitMello Pro
FitMello is free to use, with ads. FitMello Pro adds the features listed in the app and removes ads. It’s an auto-renewing App Store subscription, monthly or yearly, at the price shown in the app before you buy. Payment is taken by Apple when you confirm the purchase, and the subscription renews at the end of each period unless you cancel at least 24 hours before. Manage or cancel it in the Settings app: tap your name, then Subscriptions.
Where a free trial is offered, such as 7 days on the yearly plan, you’re charged when it ends unless you cancel before then. Refunds are handled by Apple under its own policies. Pro belongs to the FitMello account that bought it. Deleting your account doesn’t cancel the subscription; cancel it with Apple first. We may change which features are in Pro or its price; a price change reaches you through Apple before it applies.
Acceptable use
Don’t misuse the app or the website: for example, by trying to break their security, overload them, or use Open Food Facts lookups in a way that breaks Open Food Facts’ own terms.
Our content
The app, its design and its built-in content, including exercises, programs, sounds and images, belong to FitMello or its licensors. You may use them through the app for your own personal use.
No warranty
FitMello is provided “as is” and “as available”. To the extent the law allows, we don’t promise that it will be error-free, uninterrupted or fit for a particular purpose.
Limitation of liability
To the extent the law allows, FitMello isn’t liable for indirect or consequential losses, or for loss of data, arising from your use of the app or website. Nothing in these terms limits rights you have under consumer law that can’t be limited.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Minnesota, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules. If a dispute about FitMello can’t be settled by email, it will be decided by the state or federal courts in Minnesota, and you and we agree to their jurisdiction. If you live somewhere whose consumer laws give you rights that can’t be given up by agreement, such as the EU or the UK, you keep those rights, including bringing a claim in the courts where you live.
Changes
We may update these terms. When we do, we’ll update this page and the date at the top. If you keep using FitMello after a change, the updated terms apply.
