Terms of Service
Last updated: September 12, 2026
1. Acceptance of Terms
By creating an account or using Aneth (the “Service”), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, do not use the Service. These terms apply to all users of Aneth, operated by Aneth (“we”, “us”, “our”).
2. Description of Service
Aneth is a household inventory service for food, everyday supplies, purchases, savings, and emergency reserves. It can process receipts forwarded by email, surface expiry and replenishment priorities, match shopping needs with available specials, and make authorized household data available to compatible assistants through MCP. The Service does not require an in-app camera. Menu generation is not part of the core household-inventory service.
3. Free Trial & Subscription
- Free trial: New accounts receive 21 days of access, including up to 3 processed receipts. No credit card is required to start. Receipt ingestion pauses after the third receipt; all trial access pauses after 21 days unless you subscribe.
- Subscription: After the trial, continued access requires a paid subscription (monthly or annual). Pricing is displayed at the time of purchase.
- Cancellation: You may cancel at any time from your account settings. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period. No refunds are issued for partial periods.
- Renewal: Subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each billing period (monthly or annual) until cancelled. You will receive a reminder before renewal.
4. Payment & Billing
Payments are processed securely by Stripe. By subscribing, you authorize us to charge your payment method on a recurring basis (monthly or annual, depending on your plan). We do not store your card details. If a payment fails, we will notify you and may suspend access to the Service until payment is resolved.
5. User Accounts
- You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials.
- You must be at least 16 years old to use the Service.
- You are responsible for all activity that occurs under your account.
- One account per person. Accounts are non-transferable.
6. Acceptable Use
You agree not to:
- Use the Service for any unlawful purpose or in violation of any regulations
- Attempt to gain unauthorized access to any part of the Service or its infrastructure
- Reverse engineer, scrape, or otherwise extract data from the Service
- Resell or redistribute access to the Service without our written consent
7. Intellectual Property
The Service, including its design, algorithms, and content, is owned by Aneth and protected by applicable intellectual property laws. Your personal data and preferences remain yours. We do not claim ownership over any content you provide.
8. Food Safety — No Liability for Allergic Reactions or Health Incidents
Inventory dates, food-use priorities, deal information, and any recipe information obtained through a connected assistant are informational only. They do not constitute medical, nutritional, dietary, or food-safety advice.
Aneth expressly disclaims all liability for any allergic reactions, food intolerances, foodborne illness, injury, or death — including anaphylaxis or any life-threatening event — resulting from the use, preparation, storage, or consumption of food based on Service data, estimates, alerts, connected-assistant responses, or third-party recipe information.
- AI limitations: AI models, receipt extraction, and connected assistants may produce errors, omissions, or inaccurate product, date, price, ingredient, or recipe information. The Service does not guarantee that this information is complete or accurate.
- Your responsibility: You are solely responsible for verifying all ingredients against your own dietary restrictions, allergies, intolerances, and medical conditions before preparing, serving, or consuming any food.
- No medical advice: The Service does not provide medical, nutritional, or clinical dietary guidance. Always consult a qualified healthcare professional before making dietary changes, particularly if you have known food allergies, intolerances, or health conditions.
- Household members: You assume full responsibility for any meals prepared for and consumed by other members of your household, including children, guests, or individuals with specific health conditions.
By using the Service, you acknowledge these risks and agree that Aneth bears no responsibility whatsoever for any harm, illness, injury, or death arising from reliance on inventory estimates, alerts, deal information, or connected-assistant responses.
9. Disclaimer of Warranties
The Service is provided “as is” and “as available” without warranties of any kind, express or implied. We do not guarantee that the Service will be uninterrupted or error-free, or that extracted, estimated, third-party, or AI-assisted information will meet your specific expectations. Use the Service at your own discretion.
10. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Aneth shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising from your use of the Service, including but not limited to damages arising from food-related incidents. Our total liability to you for any claim shall not exceed the amount you paid us in the 3 months preceding the claim.
11. Indemnification
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Aneth and its officers, directors, employees, and agents from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, arising out of or in any way connected with: (a) your use of the Service; (b) your violation of these Terms; (c) food or household products you purchase, store, prepare, use, or serve to any third party; or (d) your violation of any law or the rights of a third party.
12. Termination
You may delete your account at any time from your account settings. We may suspend or terminate your access if you violate these Terms, with or without notice. Upon termination, your data will be deleted in accordance with our Privacy Policy.
13. Governing Law & Jurisdiction
These Terms and any dispute arising out of or relating to them or the Service are governed by the laws of the Province of Quebec and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Subject to Section 14 (Arbitration) and to any mandatory consumer-protection law of your place of residence that grants you the right to bring proceedings before your local courts, any dispute shall be brought exclusively before the courts of the judicial district of Montreal, Quebec, Canada.
Before initiating any formal proceeding, you agree to first contact us at hello@aneth.ca and attempt in good faith to resolve the dispute informally for at least 60 days. Nothing in these Terms deprives you of the protection of mandatory provisions of the consumer-protection laws of your jurisdiction.
14. Binding Arbitration & Class Action Waiver (U.S. Residents)
Please read this section carefully — it affects your legal rights. If you reside in the United States, you and Aneth agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service that cannot be resolved informally shall be resolved by binding arbitration on an individual basis, administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules, rather than in court. The arbitration will be conducted remotely (by video, telephone, or written submissions) unless the applicable rules require otherwise.
- Class action waiver: YOU AND ANETH EACH WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY AND THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION, CLASS ARBITRATION, OR ANY OTHER REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Claims may be brought only in an individual capacity.
- Exceptions: Either party may bring an individual claim in small claims court, and either party may seek injunctive relief in court for infringement or misuse of intellectual property.
- Opt-out: You may opt out of this arbitration agreement within 30 days of first accepting these Terms by emailing hello@aneth.ca with the subject "Arbitration Opt-Out" from the email address associated with your account. Opting out does not affect any other provision of these Terms.
- Severability of this section: If the class action waiver is found unenforceable as to a particular claim, this entire arbitration section shall not apply to that claim.
This section does not apply where prohibited by law, including to consumers residing in Quebec.
15. Miscellaneous
Severability: If any provision of these Terms is held invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in full force. Entire agreement: These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and Aneth regarding the Service. No waiver: Our failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of it. Assignment: You may not assign these Terms; we may assign them in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets. Survival: Sections 7 through 11 and 13 through 15 survive termination of your account.
16. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. If we make material changes, we will notify you by email at least 14 days before the changes take effect. Continued use of the Service after that date constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.
