1. These terms
Flint Cal is an iPhone app operated by JAZIPLACE Software and Online Platforms, commercial registration no. 201558-1, Kingdom of Bahrain ("JAZIPLACE", "we"). By downloading or using Flint Cal you agree to these Terms of Use and to our Privacy Policy.
Your licence to use the app is Apple's Licensed Application End User License Agreement (the "Standard EULA"). These terms add the rules that are specific to Flint Cal. If the two conflict on something specific to Flint Cal, these terms apply, as far as the law and Apple's rules allow.
2. Who can use Flint Cal
- You must be at least 16 years old. The app asks for your birth date and does not continue for anyone younger.
- If you are 16 or 17, you can choose to maintain your weight, eat better or build muscle; weight-loss and weight-gain goals are not available to you.
- Flint Cal is for your own personal, non-commercial use.
3. What Flint Cal does
Flint Cal helps you log what you eat and follow a daily plan. You can photograph a meal, describe it in words, scan a barcode or a nutrition label, or search for a food; the app's AI recognises the food and the numbers come from Flint Cal's food database. The app also offers portion and oil choices, a weight trend, four AI coaches who write beginner workout plans, a Ramadan mode, widgets and Apple Health integration.
There is no account. Your log is stored on your iPhone and is not backed up by us, so keep your device safe; if the app's data is lost from your device, we cannot restore it.
4. Flint Cal Pro: subscription, trial and renewal
Flint Cal works with a subscription called Flint Cal Pro. Without an active free trial or subscription the app's features are not available. Nothing in the app is free forever.
- Plans: monthly, US$9.99 a month; or yearly, US$39.99 a year. Apple sets the price in your country and currency, and shows it before you buy.
- Free trial: both plans start with a 3-day free trial. Apple decides who is eligible for a trial, normally once per Apple Account. We remind you on day 2, a day before the first payment.
- Payment: payment is charged to your Apple Account when the free trial ends, or when you confirm the purchase if you are not eligible for a trial.
- Automatic renewal: the subscription renews automatically for the same period at the same price unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Your Apple Account is charged for the renewal within the 24 hours before the current period ends.
- Cancelling: you can manage or cancel at any time in your Apple Account settings (Settings › your name › Subscriptions). Cancelling stops the next renewal; you keep Flint Cal Pro until the end of the period you paid for. Deleting the app does not cancel the subscription.
- Unused trial: if you buy a subscription during a free trial, any unused part of the trial ends when the purchase is made, as far as Apple's rules provide.
- Refunds: payments are processed by Apple, and refund requests are decided by Apple under its policies (reportaproblem.apple.com). We cannot issue refunds ourselves.
- Price changes: if the price changes, Apple tells you in advance and, where required, asks for your agreement before renewing at the new price.
- Restore: on a new iPhone, use Restore purchases with the same Apple Account.
5. Fair use
Flint Cal Pro is for normal personal use. Some features use AI and cost us money to run, so each subscription has a daily fair-use limit. The limit covers all devices linked to the same subscription:
- AI photo analysis: up to 20 photo analyses a day. A nutrition-label read that needs AI counts as a photo analysis.
- Text logging: up to 100 meals a day typed in and analysed by AI, counted separately from photos.
- AI coach: up to 50 messages a day.
A day is counted from midnight UTC. These limits are well above typical use. If you reach one, that feature pauses for the rest of the day and comes back the next day, and the rest of the app keeps working. Barcode scanning, food search, label reading that does not need AI, and My Plates are not subject to these limits.
To keep the service running, we may change how requests are processed during very heavy use, for example by using a different AI model, while the features stay the same. We may change these limits with reasonable notice in the app or in these terms. We will not lower them during a paid subscription period in a way that affects typical use. We may restrict or suspend access for an install that is used for automated or commercial purposes or that tries to get around these limits.
6. Nutrition estimates
Flint Cal provides general nutrition estimates for health and fitness purposes and is not a substitute for medical advice. Calories and nutrient values are estimates, and photos and portion sizes can differ from what you actually eat. You can review and change any item before and after you log it.
The AI coaches are software, not people or qualified professionals. Their replies can be wrong or incomplete; use your own judgement before changing what you eat or how active you are.
Workout plans written by the coaches are general suggestions, not a personal training programme. Warm up first, and stop any exercise that hurts.
7. Using Flint Cal fairly
You agree not to:
- copy, resell or redistribute the app, its food database or its content;
- reverse engineer the app, or access our server other than through the app, including scraping or automated requests;
- get around the subscription, the fair-use limits or any security measure;
- use the app to send anything unlawful, or photos of anything other than food, labels and barcodes;
- use Flint Cal in a way that harms the service or other people.
8. Your content and ours
Your photos, notes and messages remain yours. You give us permission to process them only as needed to run the features you use, as described in the Privacy Policy. The app, its design, the Flint Cal name and mark, the food database and the coaches' instructions belong to JAZIPLACE or its licensors. Food data that comes from third parties is credited on the Support page.
9. Apple Health and other services
Apple Health integration is optional and you control it in iOS. Flint Cal depends on services from other companies, such as Apple, our hosting and network provider, our AI providers and open food databases. Their availability is outside our control, and barcode results from open food databases may be incomplete or out of date.
10. Changes to the app
We keep improving Flint Cal and may add, change or remove features. If we remove a main feature during a paid period, we will tell you in the app. We try to keep the service available but cannot promise it will always be uninterrupted or error-free.
11. Disclaimer
As far as the law allows, Flint Cal is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, express or implied. Nothing in these terms limits rights you have as a consumer that cannot be limited by contract.
12. Liability
As far as the law allows, JAZIPLACE is not liable for indirect or consequential losses, or for decisions you make based on the app's numbers or the coaches' replies. Our total liability to you for any claim is limited to the amount you paid for Flint Cal Pro in the 12 months before the claim. This does not limit liability that cannot be limited by law.
13. Ending
You can stop using Flint Cal at any time: delete your data in Account › Delete all data and cancel your subscription in your Apple Account settings. We may suspend or end access for an install that breaks these terms. Sections 6, 8, 11, 12 and 14 continue after the end.
14. Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the Kingdom of Bahrain, and disputes go to the competent courts of Bahrain. If you are a consumer, you also keep the protection of the mandatory consumer laws of the country where you live.
15. Apple
These terms are between you and JAZIPLACE, not Apple. Apple is not responsible for Flint Cal or its content, and has no obligation to provide maintenance or support for it. Apple is not responsible for any claims relating to the app, including product liability, legal or regulatory compliance, or intellectual property claims; JAZIPLACE is responsible for these as set out in the Standard EULA. Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these terms and may enforce them against you.
16. Changes to these terms
We may update these terms. The date at the top shows the latest version, and for important changes we tell you in the app before they apply. If you keep using Flint Cal after a change applies, the new terms apply to you.
