1. About Crumb Scout
Crumb Scout is an educational and organisational support app designed to help users manage everyday celiac-related decisions, including ingredient review, eating-out notes, translation cards, personal logging, and related public support or waitlist pages.
Crumb Scout is not a medical device and does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, treatment, or emergency services.
2. Eligibility and use
You may use Crumb Scout only in compliance with these Terms and applicable law.
If you are under the age required to enter into a binding agreement in your jurisdiction, you may use Crumb Scout only with the involvement of a parent or guardian.
You are responsible for ensuring that your use of the app, and any information you choose to enter or share, is lawful and appropriate.
3. No medical or professional advice
Crumb Scout is provided for educational, informational, and personal organisational purposes only.
Nothing in the app should be treated as medical advice, diagnosis, treatment guidance, pharmaceutical advice, dietetic advice, or emergency support.
You should always use your own judgement and, where safety matters, verify relevant information independently using current product packaging, manufacturer information, or advice from a qualified clinician, pharmacist, prescriber, or dietitian.
4. Accuracy and limitations
We aim to make Crumb Scout useful and reliable, but we do not guarantee that app content or outputs will always be complete, accurate, current, or suitable for your circumstances.
Ingredient checks, image scans, product notes, restaurant notes, translation cards, diary features, and summaries may be affected by issues such as:
- incomplete or unclear information;
- packaging changes;
- regional formulation differences;
- image quality or scan errors;
- missing context;
- wording that is ambiguous or outdated; and
- user-entered errors.
Crumb Scout cannot guarantee that any food, medication, cosmetic product, restaurant, kitchen, or other product is gluten-free or safe for a particular person.

6. Local storage, exports, and sharing
Crumb Scout is intended to store data locally on your device unless and until you choose to export, share, or connect to another service.
If you export a backup, share a report, send an email, or otherwise pass content to another destination, that content will then be handled by the destination you choose, and your use of that destination may be governed by its own terms and privacy practices.
