Terms of Service

Acceptance of terms

By accessing and using Timiya, you agree to be bound by these terms. If you do not agree with any part of these terms, please do not use the service.

Description of service

Timiya is a nutrition information tool that helps you understand what your body absorbs from the food you eat. We provide meal scoring, nutrition tracking, and dietary suggestions based on bioavailability science—the study of how much of each nutrient your body can actually use.

Timiya is not a medical device. We do not diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. Timiya is an educational tool to help you make informed dietary choices.

We may modify the features, functionality, or availability of Timiya at any time. We will notify you of significant changes to the service.

User responsibilities

• You are responsible for the accuracy of information you provide to Timiya. We rely on your honest food logging for accurate nutrition scores.
• You must be at least 18 years old to create a Timiya account.
• You must not use Timiya as a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Always consult a qualified healthcare professional with medical concerns.
• You agree not to use Timiya for any illegal purpose or in any way that could harm others.
• You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials.

Intellectual property

The Timiya name, logo, and design system are the exclusive property of Timiya and protected by trademark law.

Content you create in Timiya (meal logs, photos, dietary notes) remains your property. You grant Timiya a license to use this content to provide the service and improve our nutrition algorithms (only in anonymized, aggregated form unless you explicitly opt in to research).

Limitation of liability

Timiya provides nutrition information for educational purposes. We make every effort to ensure our information is accurate, but we cannot guarantee that all recommendations will be appropriate for every individual.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Timiya is not liable for any dietary decisions made based on our suggestions or recommendations. We are not responsible for any adverse health outcomes, allergic reactions, or other health consequences that result from using Timiya or following its suggestions.

Timiya is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind, express or implied. We do not warrant that the service will be uninterrupted or error-free.

In no event shall Timiya be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages.

Medical disclaimer

Timiya is a nutrition information tool. It is not medical advice.

Timiya does not diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. Timiya is not a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Information provided by Timiya should never be used to replace the judgment of a qualified healthcare professional.

Never disregard professional medical advice or delay seeking it because of something you learned from Timiya. If you have a medical condition, are pregnant or breastfeeding, or are taking medications, consult your doctor before making significant dietary changes based on Timiya recommendations.

In case of a medical emergency, call emergency services or go to the nearest emergency room immediately.

Governing law

These terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Republic of Kenya, without regard to its conflict of law provisions.

Changes to terms

We may update these terms from time to time. If we make material changes, we will notify you via email and update the effective date on this page.
