Terms & Conditions

Functional Life Companion (the "Service") is provided by Functional Gut RN ("we", "us"). When you use the Service you are entering into an agreement with Functional Gut RN. By creating an account or continuing to use the Service, you agree to these terms.

The Service

Functional Life Companion is a personal health and life tracking app. It lets you log meals, glucose, medications, sleep, gut health, symptoms and more, and offers optional paid features ("Life Companion Plus") such as an AI assistant, voice and photo meal logging, insights and visit summaries.

Not medical advice

The Service is for personal tracking and general education only. It does not diagnose, treat or replace care from a qualified clinician. Never change medications or ignore professional advice because of something in the app. In an emergency, call your local emergency number.

Your account

• You must be of legal age in your country, or have a parent or guardian's permission, and have authority to agree to these terms.
• Keep your login details private. You are responsible for activity under your account.
• Give accurate information and keep it up to date.

Acceptable use

You must not misuse the Service, including by:

• using it for anything unlawful, fraudulent, or to send spam;
• infringing anyone's intellectual property or privacy;
• interfering with its security — for example uploading malware, probing for weaknesses, or scraping;
• reverse engineering, reselling or redistributing the Service, or getting around its limits.

AI features

• Do not use the AI features to create illegal, hateful or harmful content, impersonate others, or attempt to bypass their safeguards.
• You are responsible for what you enter, how you use the results, and having the right to share any content you upload.
• AI answers and meal estimates can be wrong. Check them yourself, and do not rely on them for medical, legal or other professional decisions without proper oversight.
• We may remove or limit content, refuse or filter responses, and suspend accounts that misuse these features. If you believe content infringes your rights, contact us and we will review it; repeated infringement leads to account termination.

Ownership

Functional Gut RN owns the Service, including its software, content, documentation and branding. We give you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable right to use it under your plan. Your health entries stay yours; you let us store and process them only to provide the Service to you.

Payments and subscriptions

Payments are processed by Stripe. For most orders, Stripe's Link service (Link.com) acts as reseller and Merchant of Record and handles sales tax, payment support and refunds for the transaction. Card statements show "LINK.COM*".

The payment terms shown at checkout also apply. Monthly and yearly plans renew automatically until cancelled; you can cancel any time and keep access until the end of the period you paid for. Prices are shown on our pricing page. See our refund policy.

Availability

We work to keep the Service running well, but we do not guarantee it will be uninterrupted or error-free. To the fullest extent the law allows, the Service is provided "as is" without implied warranties such as merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose.

Liability

To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for indirect or consequential losses (such as lost data, profits or goodwill), and our total liability is limited to the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim. Nothing here limits liability for fraud, death or personal injury where the law does not allow it.

Suspension and ending access

We may suspend or end your access for a serious breach of these terms, non-payment, security or fraud risk, or repeated or serious policy violations. You can stop using the Service any time. Before your account is closed, you can export your data from the app (Gut tools → Export).

Changes

We may update these terms. If changes are significant we will let you know in the app. Continuing to use the Service means you accept the updated terms.
