Last Updated: April 15, 2026
Effective Date: April 15, 2026
1. Acceptance of Terms
Welcome to Nabcat! These Terms of Service ("Terms") constitute a legally binding agreement between you and Nabcat Studio ("we," "our," or "us") regarding your use of the Nabcat mobile application and related services (collectively, the "Service").
By downloading, accessing, or using Nabcat, you agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to these Terms, you may not use the Service.
1.1 Eligibility
- You must be at least 13 years old to use Nabcat
- If you are under 18, you must have permission from a parent or legal guardian
- By using Nabcat, you represent that you meet these eligibility requirements
1.2 Changes to Terms
We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time. We will notify you of material changes via in-app notification at least 30 days before they take effect. Your continued use of the Service after changes become effective constitutes acceptance of the modified Terms.
2. Description of Service
Nabcat is an AI-powered nutrition and calorie tracking application that helps you:
- Track nutrition: Log meals by chatting with Nabcat, using food photos, or voice input
- AI food recognition: Identify foods and calculate nutritional information using AI
- Progress monitoring: Track calories, macros, and weight locally on your device
- AI coaching: Receive personalized nutrition advice and insights
- Goal setting: Set and track health and fitness goals
2.1 Service Availability
- The Service is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis
- We do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free service
- We may modify, suspend, or discontinue any feature at any time with or without notice
- We may perform maintenance that temporarily limits access to the Service
3. Anonymous Use and Identity
3.1 No Account Registration Required
Nabcat does not require you to create an account with an email address, password, or third-party sign-in. When you first open the app, an anonymous session is automatically created and associated with a randomly generated identifier. You are never asked for your name, email, or any identifying information as a condition of using the Service.
3.2 Onboarding Profile Information
During onboarding, Nabcat asks for basic information to personalize your experience — such as your first name and health-related preferences (age, weight, height, goal, and activity level). This information is collected as part of the setup flow and stored on our servers linked to your anonymous session ID. You may skip or leave fields blank where the app allows, and you can update or request removal of this information at any time through the app or by contacting us.
3.3 Session Persistence
Your anonymous session persists across app launches. If you uninstall the app, your local data (food logs, chat history) is permanently deleted. Server-stored profile and subscription data associated with your anonymous ID may be retained; see Section 9 for details.
4. Subscriptions and Payments
4.1 Subscription Plans
Nabcat is a premium service requiring an active subscription to use:
- Pro tier: Full access to all AI features and premium functionality, subject to fair usage limits outlined in Section 5.4
4.2 Billing and Payments
- Subscriptions are processed through Apple App Store or Google Play Store
- Payment methods and billing are managed by Apple or Google, not by us directly
- Prices are displayed in your local currency and may include applicable taxes
- We reserve the right to change subscription prices with 30 days notice
4.3 Subscription Renewals
- Subscriptions automatically renew unless you cancel before the renewal date
- You will be charged for the renewal at the then-current subscription price
- You can manage or cancel your subscription through your App Store or Google Play account settings
4.4 Refunds
- Refund requests are handled by Apple App Store or Google Play Store per their policies
- We do not directly process refunds for subscriptions
- Contact Apple or Google customer support for refund assistance
4.5 Free Trials
- We may offer free trial periods for premium features
- You must cancel before the trial ends to avoid being charged
- Trials are available only once per Apple ID or Google account and cannot be combined with other offers
5. User Content and Conduct
5.1 Your Content
You retain full ownership of all content you submit to Nabcat, including:
- Food photos and voice recordings submitted for analysis
- Chat messages with the AI assistant
- Health goals and profile preferences
5.2 License to Your Content
By submitting content to Nabcat, you grant us a limited, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to:
- Process your content solely to provide the Service to you
- Use AI to analyze your food photos and generate nutritional information
- Display your data back to you within the app
This license does not allow us to use your content for training AI models or for any purpose other than providing the Service. Food photos and voice recordings are deleted within 24 hours of processing.
5.3 Prohibited Conduct
You agree not to:
- Violate any applicable laws or regulations
- Attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Service or other users' sessions
- Interfere with or disrupt the Service or servers
- Use the Service for commercial purposes without our permission
- Use automated tools (bots, scrapers) to access the Service
- Reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the app
- Remove or alter any copyright, trademark, or proprietary notices
5.4 Fair Usage Policy
Nabcat's AI features are powered by third-party AI services that carry real costs. To keep the Service sustainable and fairly accessible to all users, we apply reasonable usage limits on AI-powered features.
- AI usage limits are designed to comfortably accommodate normal, everyday use — the vast majority of users will never come close to hitting them
- Limits reset on a daily basis. Unused allowance may carry over to the following day
- We do not publish exact limits, as they may be adjusted over time to balance service quality and cost
- If you reach your daily limit, AI features will be temporarily unavailable until your allowance resets
- Attempting to circumvent usage limits — including through automated requests, scripting, or other technical means — is a violation of these Terms and may result in suspension
To put this in perspective — as the developer and a daily user of Nabcat myself, I use the app exactly the way it was designed: logging meals by weight and name, with occasional questions to Nabcat when I need guidance. In my day-to-day use, I have never once hit the usage limit. If you're using Nabcat for food logging and the occasional chat, you are very unlikely to ever encounter one either.
We reserve the right to adjust usage limits at any time. Significant changes that affect typical usage patterns will be communicated via in-app notification.
5.5 User Responsibilities
- You are responsible for the accuracy of information you provide
- We are not liable for errors in nutritional calculations based on incorrect user input
- You should verify AI-generated nutritional information when accuracy is critical
- The Service is not a substitute for professional medical, nutritional, or fitness advice
6. AI-Generated Content and Disclaimers
6.1 AI Accuracy
Nabcat was built to solve the frustration of manual food logging — the goal is to make tracking fast and accurate, not to replace the precision that comes from knowing your food.
- Nabcat uses AI to analyze food and provide nutritional estimates
- AI-generated nutritional information is approximate and may not be 100% accurate
- Nutritional values are estimates based on typical serving sizes and may vary
- We do not guarantee the accuracy of AI food recognition or calorie calculations
For best results: The most accurate way to log your food is to weigh it on a scale and tell Nabcat the food name and exact weight. This is how the app was designed to be used — photo-based logging is a convenience feature and will always be less precise than a weighed, named entry.
6.2 AI Consent
Certain AI features require your explicit in-app consent before activation. By consenting, you acknowledge that your profile data, food analysis results, and chat messages will be processed by AI to provide personalized responses. You may review or withdraw consent at any time in Settings.
6.3 Health and Medical Disclaimers
IMPORTANT: Nabcat is a nutrition tracking tool, not a medical device or professional health service.
- Not medical advice: The Service does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment
- Consult professionals: Always consult a qualified healthcare provider before starting any diet, exercise program, or making health-related decisions
- Individual needs: Nutritional needs vary by individual; our recommendations are general guidance only
- Health conditions: If you have medical conditions, allergies, or dietary restrictions, consult your doctor before using calorie targets or nutrition advice from the app
- Emergency situations: Do not use Nabcat for medical emergencies; call emergency services if needed
6.4 No Warranties
We provide the Service "as is" without warranties of any kind, including:
- Accuracy or reliability of nutritional information
- Uninterrupted or error-free operation
- Fitness for a particular purpose
- Achievement of specific health outcomes
