Terms of Use

1. Scope and provider

The provider of the Leafy app is foodsoption UG (haftungsbeschränkt), Dördelweg 24, 58638 Iserlohn, Germany. These terms apply to the use of the app on all platforms, regardless of the store you obtained it from.

The terms of the respective app store (Apple App Store or Google Play) apply in addition. In case of conflict, mandatory store rules take precedence.

2. What the service does

Leafy helps you identify houseplants, manage watering schedules and get reminded in time. It also offers an AI-assisted assessment of possible plant problems (“plant doctor”).

Leafy is an aid, not expert advice. Plant identification and diagnosis are based on automated procedures and may be inaccurate. Results are non-binding. Do not base decisions with health, legal or financial consequences on them — in particular, Leafy is not suitable for judging whether a plant is edible or poisonous. When in doubt, consult a qualified person.

3. Account

An account is required to use Leafy. Sign-in works via “Sign in with Apple” or “Sign in with Google”. You are responsible for protecting access to your account from third parties.

Use is permitted for persons aged 16 and over. Younger users require the consent of their legal guardians.

4. Rights of use

We grant you a simple, non-transferable and revocable right to use the app on the devices you use, for private purposes. All rights in the app, its content, trademarks and design elements remain with us or the respective rights holders.

In particular, reverse engineering, circumventing technical protection measures, automated scraping of content and reselling or commercially distributing the app are not permitted.

5. Your content

Photos and information you store in the app remain your content. They are kept in your private storage area and are not published.

You grant us the rights necessary to operate the service: to store and process this content and to transmit it to the AI service used for identification and diagnosis (see privacy policy). You warrant that you hold the necessary rights to the images you upload and that they do not infringe the rights of third parties.

6. Leafy Pro

Leafy can be used in a free base version that allows up to two plants. Leafy Pro unlocks unlimited plants, the plant doctor and advanced care schedules.

• Leafy Pro is available as a monthly or annual subscription as well as a one-time lifetime purchase.
• Purchase and payment are handled exclusively through the Apple App Store or Google Play. Their contractual and payment terms apply.
• Subscriptions renew automatically for the selected term unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
• Cancellation takes place in the subscription management of the respective store, not in the app. After cancellation, Pro remains active until the end of the paid period.
• If a free trial is offered, it converts into a paid subscription when it ends unless you cancel beforehand.
• Refunds are governed by the rules of the respective store; we cannot issue refunds ourselves.

7. Right of withdrawal

Since purchase and billing are handled by the respective app store, any right of withdrawal is governed by Apple's or Google's terms. Please contact the store you purchased from directly regarding withdrawal and refunds.

8. Availability and changes

We aim for operation that is as trouble-free as possible but do not owe uninterrupted availability. Maintenance, service provider outages or force majeure may lead to temporary restrictions.

We may further develop the app and change or discontinue features to the extent this is reasonable for you. We will inform you of material changes in the app in good time.

9. Liability

We are liable without limitation for intent and gross negligence, for injury to life, body or health, under the German Product Liability Act and within the scope of any guarantees given.

In cases of slight negligence we are liable only for breach of material contractual obligations — obligations whose fulfilment makes the proper performance of the contract possible in the first place and on whose observance you may regularly rely — and limited in amount to the foreseeable damage typical for this type of contract. Any further liability is excluded.

For damage to plants resulting from acting on automatically generated recommendations, we are liable within the scope of the above provisions; using those recommendations is your own responsibility.

10. Term, termination and deletion

You may end your use at any time by deleting your account in the app under Settings → Delete account and uninstalling the app. An active subscription must additionally be cancelled in the respective store.

We may terminate the contract for good cause, in particular in the event of serious or repeated breaches of these terms.

11. Changes to these terms

We may amend these terms where required due to changes in the law, case law or the further development of the app, provided this does not unreasonably disadvantage you. We will inform you of changes in good time in the app or by email. If you do not object within six weeks, the amended terms are deemed accepted; we will point out this consequence separately in the notification.

12. Final provisions

The law of the Federal Republic of Germany applies, excluding the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. If the user is a consumer, mandatory consumer protection provisions of their country of residence remain unaffected.

Should any provision of these terms be invalid, the validity of the remaining provisions remains unaffected.

Please direct questions about these terms to support@heyleafy.app.
