Terms of Use
These Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of the websites, mobile applications, and related services offered by DO DEVELOPMENT LLC (doing business as My Menu Chat) (“we,” “us,” or “our”) (the “Services”). By accessing or using the Services, you agree to these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the Services.
1. The Services; platform role
We operate a technology platform that helps guests discover and access restaurant menus through our mobile application and related Services. We are not a restaurant, food provider, caterer, or medical provider. The Services may include AI-assisted menu reading, chat, recommendations, explore or map features, guest trials or subscriptions where offered, and other functionality we make available. Menu text, allergen labels, ingredient lists, dietary classifications, prices, availability, and AI or third party summaries displayed through the Services may originate from restaurants, mapping or place data providers, or automated systems and may be wrong, incomplete, outdated, or misleading. You must confirm all food, allergy, and dietary information directly with the restaurant or food provider before ordering or consuming any item. Features may change, and we do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation.
2. Eligibility
You must be able to form a binding contract in your jurisdiction and meet any minimum age in your region (and not be barred from using the Services under applicable law).
3. Accounts
You are responsible for your account credentials and for activity under your account. Notify us promptly of unauthorized use. By creating an account, you represent that you have read and agree to these Terms and our Privacy Policy. You may delete your account in the app; deletion is permanent for data we control, subject to legal retention requirements.
4. User content and license
You retain ownership of content you submit, subject to the license below. You represent that you have the rights needed to submit your content and that it does not violate law or third-party rights.
License to us. You grant us a worldwide, royalty-free, sublicensable, transferable license to use, host, store, reproduce, modify, distribute, publicly display, and create derivative works from your content, as needed to operate, promote, and improve the Services and our business. This includes use for artificial intelligence and machine learning, for example training, testing, fine-tuning, benchmarking, and improving models and algorithms across our products, in a manner comparable to how major consumer platforms leverage user-submitted content to develop automated features, consistent with our Privacy Policy and applicable law.
Dish photos and corrections. When you photograph a dish in the app and confirm or correct our AI’s guess, you grant us the same license to that photo, the AI output, and your correction. We may use these submissions to improve menu recognition, dish labeling, and related features (including model training), subject to our Privacy Policy.
Your representations. You represent that you own or have the necessary rights, licenses, and permissions to submit your content and to grant the license above, and that your content does not infringe or misappropriate any copyright, trademark, privacy, or other rights of any person or entity.
5. Intellectual property; third-party content; copyright
Our property. The Services, including software, source code, design, logos, trademarks, and compiled data we create, are owned by DO DEVELOPMENT LLC or our licensors and are protected by intellectual property laws. Except for the limited license to use the Services as we provide them, no rights are granted to you.
Third-party and restaurant materials. Menus, dish descriptions, prices, photos, ratings, reviews, and venue information in the Services may be owned by restaurants, users, mapping or media providers, or other third parties. We display and process those materials under partner agreements, user licenses, provider terms, or as permitted by law. We do not claim ownership of third party materials. You may not copy, scrape, redistribute, or commercially exploit content from the Services except as allowed by law or with permission from the rights holder.
Copyright complaints. If you believe content on the Services infringes your copyright, send a notice to contact@mymenuchat.com with: (1) identification of the copyrighted work; (2) identification of the material you claim is infringing and where it appears; (3) your contact information; (4) a statement of good faith belief that use is not authorized; (5) a statement, under penalty of perjury, that your notice is accurate and you are authorized to act; and (6) your physical or electronic signature. We may remove or disable access to material we believe infringes rights and may terminate accounts of repeat infringers where appropriate.
6. Public posting
The consumer app does not offer a public community feed, groups, or user posting of photos, ratings, or reviews for other guests to see. Venue photos and reviews you may see come from restaurants or mapping and place data providers, not from guest community posts.
If you previously submitted community content while that feature was available, contact us at contact@mymenuchat.com to request deletion. We may still remove leftover content or restrict accounts that create risk for users or the public, and we may cooperate with law enforcement as required.
7. No medical or allergy advice; food safety
THE SERVICES DO NOT PROVIDE MEDICAL, NUTRITIONAL, OR ALLERGY ADVICE AND ARE NOT A SUBSTITUTE FOR PROFESSIONAL MEDICAL CARE. Any information about ingredients, allergens, diets, or suitability of food (including AI-generated or user-generated content) may be wrong, incomplete, outdated, mistranslated, or misinterpreted. FOR ANY FOOD ALLERGY, CELIAC DISEASE, OR OTHER MEDICAL CONDITION, YOU ALONE ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR SAFETY. Always verify allergens, ingredients, preparation, and cross-contact risks directly with the restaurant or other food provider using authoritative, current information from that establishment, not only from this app. Consult a qualified medical professional for medical decisions.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE ARE NOT LIABLE FOR ANY ADVERSE HEALTH OUTCOME, INCLUDING ILLNESS, INJURY, OR DEATH, ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF OR RELIANCE ON THE SERVICES OR ANY CONTENT OR SUGGESTION PROVIDED THROUGH THEM.
8. Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- Violate law or third-party rights, or upload unlawful, infringing, or harmful content.
- Harass, threaten, or harm others; distribute malware; probe or break security.
- Scrape, resell, copy, or redistribute Service content (including menus, photos, or AI output) except as allowed by law or these Terms.
- Circumvent access controls, usage limits, or payment requirements.
- Impersonate others or misrepresent your affiliation with a restaurant or venue.
9. Subscriptions, trials, purchases, and AI allowances
If you purchase subscriptions or in-app products, Apple’s (or another platform’s) payment terms also apply. Fees, billing, renewal, cancellation, and refunds follow that platform’s rules and the information shown at purchase. Guest trials or promotional access may be limited in duration or features as described in the app.
AI subscriptions. Paid plans such as Plus and Pro are subscriptions for metered AI features (for example menu chat, AI search assistance, and related AI tools). Current U.S. list prices are typically about US $7.99 per month for Plus and US $12.99 per month for Pro, but the price charged is the localized StoreKit / App Store price shown at purchase and may differ by country, tax, or Apple pricing. Menu browsing, translations, and other non-AI features may remain available without a paid AI plan, as described in the app.
Usage allowances. Each AI plan includes a monthly AI usage allowance based on that plan’s price and our fair-use metering (including model and infrastructure cost). An allowance is not unlimited AI. When your allowance for the current billing period is used, AI features may pause, degrade, or require an upgrade (for example from Plus to Pro) until the period renews or you change plans. Exhausting an allowance does not by itself cancel your subscription or stop Apple billing unless you cancel in your Apple ID subscription settings.
Service changes and suspension. We may modify, limit, suspend, or discontinue AI features (in whole or in part) for operational, safety, abuse, legal, cost, or product reasons, including temporary outages and permanent changes. Where required by law or Apple’s rules, we will provide notice. Subscription fees already paid through Apple are subject to Apple’s refund policies; we do not separately guarantee unlimited or uninterrupted AI access for any fee paid.
10. Third parties
Restaurants, delivery platforms, and other third parties are independent of us. We do not control their menus, prices, allergen handling, or service. Disputes with third parties are between you and them.
11. Termination
We may suspend or terminate your access to the Services at any time if we reasonably believe you violated these Terms, create risk, or as required by law. You may stop using the Services at any time and delete your account in the app.
12. Disclaimers
THE SERVICES AND ALL CONTENT ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.
13. Limitation of liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL WE OR OUR AFFILIATES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, OR SUPPLIERS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, GOODWILL, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICES OR THESE TERMS IS LIMITED TO THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US FOR THE SERVICES IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM (IF ANY) OR (B) ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS (US $100). SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW CERTAIN LIMITATIONS; IN THOSE CASES OUR LIABILITY IS LIMITED TO THE MINIMUM PERMITTED BY LAW.
14. Indemnity
You will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless us and our affiliates from claims, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising from your content, your use of the Services, or your violation of these Terms or law, to the extent permitted by law.
15. Governing law; venue
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Hawaii, United States, without regard to conflict of law rules. Subject to applicable mandatory consumer protections, you and we agree that courts located in that jurisdiction will have exclusive jurisdiction over disputes.
16. Changes
We may modify these Terms. We will post updates and may require continued use to constitute acceptance where allowed. Material changes may require additional notice under law.
