These Terms & Conditions ("Terms") govern your use of Calorie Check (the "Site"). By accessing or using the Site, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.
1. Not Medical, Dietetic, or Professional Advice
All content on this Site — including calculator results, articles, guides, and FAQs — is provided for general informational and educational purposes only. It is not, and should not be treated as, medical, dietetic, nutritional, or other professional advice.
Calorie, macronutrient, BMI, and related figures generated by our calculators are estimates based on published formulas and general population data. They do not account for your individual medical history, medications, genetics, or specific health circumstances. Always consult a doctor, registered dietitian, or other qualified healthcare professional before making decisions related to diet, weight, exercise, or any medical condition — particularly if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, managing a chronic illness, or have a history of disordered eating.
2. Restaurant & Third-Party Nutrition Data
Where this Site provides calculators or content referencing named restaurants, food brands, or menu items, the following applies:
- We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by, or officially connected to any restaurant, food brand, or company referenced on this Site, unless explicitly stated otherwise.
- All trademarks, brand names, and logos referenced belong to their respective owners and are used solely for identification and informational purposes (nominative fair use).
- Nutrition figures for restaurant and menu items are independent estimates compiled for general guidance. They may differ from official figures published by the operator due to recipe changes, regional variation, preparation differences, or portion variability — particularly for self-serve or made-to-order formats.
- You should always verify nutrition and allergen information directly with the restaurant or brand before making decisions that matter for allergy, intolerance, or medical reasons.
3. No Warranty of Accuracy
While we make reasonable efforts to keep calculators and content accurate and current (see our Editorial Methodology page for details), we make no warranties or representations, express or implied, as to the accuracy, completeness, reliability, or timeliness of any information on this Site. Use of any calculator result or article content is entirely at your own risk.
4. Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Calorie Check and its owners, operators, and contributors shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or special damages arising from your use of, or inability to use, this Site or its content, including but not limited to reliance on any calculator result, nutrition figure, or article.
Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud, or any other liability that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law.
