Terms of Service

Effective date: August 1, 2026

This English text is a reference translation. The Japanese version is the authoritative text, and it prevails in the event of any discrepancy.

These Terms of Service (these "Terms") set out the conditions for using the smartphone application "Shoku Labo" (the "App") provided by Kpin Studio (the "Operator"). By using the App, you are deemed to have agreed to these Terms.

Article 1 (What the App does)

  1. The App lets you log what you ate from photos of your meals and other input, and shows how rich that food is in antioxidant-related components as "antioxidant score", an indicator specific to this App.
  2. The antioxidant score is a dietary indicator that puts a number on what you ate, based on public food composition databases and similar sources. It does not measure or guarantee antioxidant activity in the body or any other bodily condition.
  3. The information the App shows — including scores, insights, food facts, and study information — is for reference only and is not medical care, diagnosis, or treatment, nor a substitute for them. Please consult a physician or other qualified professional for decisions about your health.

Article 2 (Accounts)

  1. You can use the App with an anonymous account or by signing in with a Google account.
  2. Signing in with a Google account is required to carry your data over when you change devices or reinstall the App. If you delete the App while using an anonymous account, your records may not be recoverable.
  3. You are responsible for managing your own account.

Article 3 (Paid plan)

  1. Some features of the App are offered as a paid plan (a subscription).
  2. Prices and what is included are as shown on the purchase screen in the App.
  3. Payment for the paid plan is processed through Google Play, and the subscription renews automatically unless cancelled before the end of the period.
  4. You can cancel at any time from your Google Play subscription settings. After cancelling, you can continue to use the paid features until the end of the period you have paid for.
  5. Refunds of amounts already paid follow the Google Play refund policy.
  6. The Operator may change prices for new contracts in the future. In that case, the price for users who have subscribed continuously from before the change will not change, unless the Operator separately provides otherwise.

Article 4 (Prohibited conduct)

When using the App, you must not:

  1. Violate laws or public order and morals;
  2. Tamper with or reverse-engineer the App, gain unauthorized access, or otherwise interfere with its operation;
  3. Copy, republish, or sell the App's content (food facts, study information, databases, and the like) without the Operator's permission (personal use and sharing through the App's own share feature are excepted);
  4. Infringe the rights of other users or third parties; or
  5. Use the App for medical care or anything equivalent to it.

Article 5 (Intellectual property)

  1. Intellectual property rights in the App and its content belong to the Operator or the rightful owners.
  2. The meal records you create in the App belong to you. The Operator may, however, use them to the extent necessary to provide and improve the App.

Article 6 (Disclaimer)

  1. The Operator does not warrant the accuracy, completeness, usefulness, or fitness for a particular purpose of the App's content. Food composition databases and study information may differ from the latest findings.
  2. AI recognition of meals and estimates of amounts may contain errors.
  3. The Operator is not liable for damages arising from your use of, or inability to use, the App, except where caused by the Operator's intent or gross negligence. Even where the Operator is liable, the amount of compensation is limited to the amount you paid for the App during the preceding 12 months.
  4. The App may be unavailable because of your network conditions, the state of your device, or failures in external services (including Google services).

Article 7 (Changes, suspension, and termination of the service)

  1. The Operator may change the App's content or suspend it without prior notice to users.
  2. If the Operator ends the App, it will give reasonable advance notice by appropriate means, such as a notice within the App.

Article 8 (Changes to these Terms)

The Operator may change these Terms as necessary. If we make a significant change, we will give notice by appropriate means, such as a notice within the App. If you continue to use the App after a change, you are deemed to have agreed to the changed Terms.

Article 9 (Governing law and jurisdiction)

These Terms are governed by the laws of Japan. If a dispute arises in relation to the App, the court with jurisdiction over the Operator's location shall be the exclusive court of first instance by agreement.
