Terms of Use
Welcome
These Terms of Use (“Terms”) are a binding agreement between you and Plate of Wellness Group LLC (“Plate of Wellness,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), a Texas limited liability company. They cover your use of the Plate of Wellness mobile app and any related services we provide (collectively, the “Service”).
By creating an account or using the Service, you agree to these Terms. If you don’t agree, please don’t use the Service.
We’ve written these in plain English so you can actually understand what you’re agreeing to. The legal force still applies.
1. Important medical and health disclaimers
Plate of Wellness is not medical advice
Plate of Wellness provides nutrition tracking, AI-assisted analysis, workout features, and general educational information from Registered Dietitians. Everything in the Service is for informational and educational purposes only. It is not medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.
The Service is not a substitute for personalized care from your doctor, registered dietitian, pharmacist, or other qualified healthcare provider.
Plate of Wellness Group LLC is not your healthcare provider, and your use of the Service does not establish a doctor-patient, dietitian-patient, or any other healthcare provider-patient relationship between you and Plate of Wellness.
Our business structure
Plate of Wellness Group LLC also operates a separate telehealth registered dietitian practice. Any clinical care you receive from that practice is provided under a separate provider-patient relationship and is subject to healthcare privacy laws (including HIPAA) that govern that relationship. Your use of the Service does not enroll you in clinical care, and being a clinical patient of our telehealth practice does not affect or extend to your use of the Service. The Service and the clinical practice maintain separate records, and clinical information from your provider relationship is not shared with the Service unless you choose to share it yourself.
Always consult a healthcare professional
Consult your doctor or other qualified healthcare professional before:
- Starting any diet, weight-loss program, exercise routine, or supplement
- Changing medications or any treatment plan
- Making decisions about GLP-1 medications (Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, Zepbound, or any others)
- Acting on any information in the Service if you have a medical condition, are pregnant or nursing, or are taking prescription medication
GLP-1 features (important)
The GLP-1 mode in Plate of Wellness offers general education and tracking adjustments that some users on GLP-1 medications find helpful. It is not personalized medical guidance. It cannot prescribe, adjust, or replace anything from your prescribing physician.
The protein targets, portion suggestions, hydration prompts, and other features in GLP-1 mode are general and may not be appropriate for your specific situation. Your prescribing physician should remain your primary source of advice about your medication and how to eat while taking it.
If you experience side effects, hypoglycemia, dehydration, severe nausea, or any concerning symptom while using a GLP-1 medication, stop using the Service for medical decisions immediately and contact your physician or, in an emergency, call 911.
“Ask our RDs” (important)
Our team of Registered Dietitians provides general educational responses based on the information you share. This service is:
- Not a clinical consultation
- Not a substitute for in-person nutritional counseling
- Not a diagnostic service
- Not a dietitian-client relationship
Responses are general guidance and should not be relied upon for medical decisions or as a substitute for personalized care from a licensed professional in your jurisdiction. For a clinical relationship, please find a Registered Dietitian licensed in your state who can review your medical history, run any needed assessments, and provide individualized care.
Emergencies
The Service is not a substitute for emergency care. If you have a medical emergency, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room. Do not delay seeking medical help because of anything you read in the Service.
2. Your account
To use most features, you need an account. By creating an account, you represent and agree that:

6. AI features and accuracy
The Service uses third-party AI providers for features including AI Photo Log, Speak to Log, and Q&A processing.
AI outputs can be wrong. Estimates of foods, macros, sodium, portion sizes, and other nutritional information may be inaccurate or incomplete. Do not rely on AI outputs for medical decisions, allergy management, sodium-restricted diets, diabetes management, or any other situation where accurate information is critical to your health.
You should:
- Review and verify every AI-generated entry before relying on it
- Edit any entry that looks inaccurate
- Consult ingredient labels, restaurant nutrition information, or a Registered Dietitian for foods that affect your medical conditions or medications
We do not warrant or guarantee the accuracy, completeness, timeliness, or reliability of any AI-generated content.
7. Your content
You retain ownership of the food entries, photos, voice recordings, questions, and other content you submit (“Your Content”).
By submitting Your Content, you grant Plate of Wellness Group LLC a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, sublicensable license to host, store, process, transmit, and display Your Content solely to operate the Service for you and to comply with law. We do not use Your Content for advertising, do not sell Your Content, and do not use Your Content to train AI models.
You represent and warrant that you have the rights to submit Your Content and that doing so does not violate anyone else’s rights.
8. Feedback
If you send us suggestions, ideas, feature requests, bug reports, or other feedback (“Feedback”), you grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free license to use the Feedback for any purpose, without obligation or compensation to you.
9. Intellectual property
The Service, including its design, code, text, logos, graphics, and all features, is owned by Plate of Wellness Group LLC and protected by copyright, trademark, and other laws.
We grant you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and use the app on a compatible Apple device that you own or control, solely for your personal use, subject to these Terms and the Apple App Store terms.
All rights not expressly granted are reserved.
10. Service availability and changes
We aim for high uptime but don’t guarantee that the Service will always be available. Maintenance, outages, errors, or other issues may interrupt access. We may add, modify, suspend, or discontinue any feature at any time. For paid features, if we discontinue a feature you’ve paid for, we’ll provide a refund or credit for the unused portion as a goodwill measure where appropriate.
11. Third-party services
The Service may connect to or reference third-party services (such as Apple HealthKit, Apple Sign-In, or external websites). Your use of those services is governed by their own terms and privacy policies. We are not responsible for the practices, content, or availability of any third party.
12. Disclaimer of warranties
THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND TITLE.
We do not warrant that:
- The Service will be error-free, uninterrupted, secure, or virus-free
- Any defects will be corrected
- AI outputs, dietitian responses, food data, or nutritional information will be accurate, complete, or suitable for your situation
- The Service will produce any particular health, weight, fitness, or nutrition result
You use the Service at your own risk. Some jurisdictions don’t allow the exclusion of certain warranties, so parts of this section may not apply to you.
13. Limitation of liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL PLATE OF WELLNESS GROUP LLC, ITS OWNERS, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS, AGENTS, OR LICENSORS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, GOODWILL, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE SERVICE.
OUR TOTAL CUMULATIVE LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICE IS LIMITED TO THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US IN THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM, OR (B) FIFTY US DOLLARS ($50).
These limitations apply even if a remedy fails of its essential purpose and even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.
Some jurisdictions don’t allow the limitation or exclusion of liability for certain damages, so parts of this section may not apply to you. Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited under applicable law.
14. Indemnification
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Plate of Wellness Group LLC, its owners, employees, contractors, and agents from any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorney fees) arising from or related to:
- Your use of the Service
- Your violation of these Terms
- Your violation of any rights of others
- Any content you submit through the Service
- Your reliance on any information in the Service for medical, health, or fitness decisions
We may, at our option, control the defense of any claim subject to indemnification. You will cooperate with us in defending such claims.
15. Termination
We may suspend or terminate your account at any time, with or without notice, if you violate these Terms, abuse the Service, or for any other reason at our discretion, including discontinuing the Service.
You may stop using the Service and delete your account at any time.
Sections that should reasonably survive termination — including Sections 1 (Disclaimers), 7 (Your Content), 8 (Feedback), 9 (Intellectual Property), 12 (Warranties), 13 (Limitation of Liability), 14 (Indemnification), 17 (Governing Law), and 18 (General) — will survive termination.
16. Apple App Store additional terms
These additional terms apply because the app is distributed through the Apple App Store:
- These Terms are between you and Plate of Wellness Group LLC only, not Apple. Apple is not responsible for the Service or its content.
- The license you receive is limited to use on Apple-branded products you own or control, in accordance with the Usage Rules in Apple’s Media Services Terms.
- Apple has no obligation to provide maintenance or support for the Service.
- If the Service fails to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple may refund the purchase price. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Apple has no other warranty obligations and any other claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs, or expenses are our sole responsibility.
- We, not Apple, are responsible for addressing your or any third party’s claims relating to the Service, including but not limited to: product liability claims, claims that the Service fails to conform to legal or regulatory requirements, and claims arising under consumer protection or similar law.
- We, not Apple, are responsible for the investigation, defense, settlement, and discharge of any third-party intellectual property infringement claim relating to the Service.
- You represent and warrant that you are not located in a country subject to a US Government embargo or designated as a “terrorist supporting” country, and that you are not on any US Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
- Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and, upon your acceptance, will have the right (and will be deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce these Terms against you as a third-party beneficiary.
17. Governing law and disputes
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to its conflict of laws principles. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply.
Any dispute arising from or relating to these Terms or the Service will be resolved exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Bexar County, Texas. You and we consent to the personal jurisdiction of those courts and waive any objection to venue in those courts.
If you are a consumer residing in a jurisdiction whose law requires that disputes be resolved differently, the mandatory provisions of your local law will apply to the extent required by law.
18. General
Entire agreement. These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and any other policies we post in the Service, are the entire agreement between you and Plate of Wellness Group LLC regarding the Service and supersede all prior agreements.
Severability. If any part of these Terms is found unenforceable, the rest will remain in full force and effect.
No waiver. Our failure to enforce any right or provision is not a waiver of that right or provision.
Assignment. You may not assign or transfer these Terms or your rights under them without our written consent. We may assign these Terms freely.
Notices. Legal notices to us should be sent to: Plate of Wellness Group LLC, San Antonio, TX 78255, with a copy to info@plateofwellness.com. We may give you notice in the app, by email to the address on your account, or by any other reasonable method.
Force majeure. We are not liable for any delay or failure to perform caused by events beyond our reasonable control, including natural disasters, government actions, war, terrorism, civil unrest, pandemics, internet outages, third-party service failures, or labor disputes.
Headings. Section headings are for convenience only and do not affect interpretation.
Changes to these Terms. We may update these Terms occasionally. Material changes will be communicated through the app or by email at least 30 days before they take effect (or as required by law). Continued use of the Service after changes means you accept the updated Terms.
