Kcal Ledger Terms of Use

Last updated: July 30, 2026

中文/English

Welcome to Kcal Ledger (the “App”). By downloading, installing, or using the App, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agreed to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the App.

1. License

The App is distributed through the Apple App Store and is also subject to the Apple Standard End User License Agreement. These Terms supplement that agreement for App-specific features, credits, subscriptions, and data handling.

2. Service

The App helps you record meals, exercise, body metrics, and goals. You can enter information manually, use a photo, or scan a nutrition label. Optional analysis features estimate calories, nutrients, and exercise energy. You can review, edit, reject, or confirm an estimate before it becomes a saved record.

3. Not medical advice

Calories, nutrients, daily energy needs, reports, and other suggestions are estimates for general tracking and reference. They are not medical, nutritional, diagnostic, or treatment advice and do not replace advice from a qualified professional. Consult an appropriate professional before acting if you have a medical condition, dietary restriction, pregnancy, illness, or medication concern.

4. Account and deletion

You are responsible for protecting your device and sign-in account. You may delete your Kcal Ledger account from Settings → Delete Account. After confirmation, the App requests deletion of account-linked backend data, clears local App data, and signs you out, subject to records we must retain for accounting, security, disputes, or legal compliance.

The shared analysis cache described in Section 6 is not linked to an account identifier, so deleting your account cannot identify and remove a specific shared-cache entry.

5. Credits, subscriptions, and payment

6. Analysis and report processing

Before information is sent for an analysis or report, the App presents a consent disclosure. Depending on your request, submitted data may include text, photos, selected body metrics, food and exercise records, daily goals, and basic profile information. Weekly and monthly reports use records from the selected and comparison periods. This request data is sent through our server to a third-party processing service to generate the requested result.

Separately, our own backend may keep the complete analysis or report result in a temporary delivery buffer for up to about 48 hours so it can be delivered again after an interruption. Eligible short meal text that passes privacy filters, together with its complete reusable result, may enter a shared analysis cache that is not linked to your account and currently has no fixed automatic expiration, reducing repeat processing. See the Privacy Policy for details.

7. Your data and backups

Your meal, exercise, body-metric, goal, favorite-food, report, and saved analysis records are stored in a local SwiftData store on your device, not as a synchronized copy on our server. You are responsible for maintaining access to your device and any backup you choose to create.

You may manually back up records to the private app-data area of your own Google Drive account. The backup is user-controlled, does not pass through our server, and is not additionally encrypted by the App. Use this option only if your Google account security meets your needs.

8. Acceptable use

You must not bypass credits or billing, interfere with the service, submit unlawful or infringing content, attempt unauthorized access, or use automation to abuse analysis features. We may reasonably limit or terminate affected functions when misuse is detected.

9. Disclaimer

The App is provided “as is” and “as available.” To the maximum extent permitted by law, we do not guarantee uninterrupted operation, error-free output, or fitness for a particular purpose. Estimates may be inaccurate, and you remain responsible for reviewing results and deciding how to use them.

10. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or punitive damages arising from use of or inability to use the App. Where a jurisdiction does not permit a limitation, it applies only to the extent allowed there.

11. Changes

We may update these Terms. Material changes will be identified in the App or on this page. Continuing to use the App after an update means you accept the updated Terms.

12. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of China (Taiwan), without reducing any mandatory consumer rights that apply where you live.
