Plain-language summary. Yuva is a recipe and nutrition app operated by UMPROVE SRL. To use the app you must be at least 13 years old (or with parental consent if under the age of digital consent in your country). The App is not medical advice, always consult a professional for dietary decisions. Subscriptions auto-renew until you cancel. Romanian law governs; EU consumers retain their home-country consumer protections.
Welcome to Yuva (the "App"), operated by UMPROVE SRL, a company organised under the laws of Romania, registered at Str. 1 Mai nr. 15, Mun. Rădăuți, Suceava County, Romania ("UMPROVE," "we," "us," or "our"). These Terms of Service ("Terms") form a legally binding agreement between you ("you," "your," or "User") and UMPROVE.
By creating an account, downloading, or using the App, you confirm that you have read and accept these Terms. If you do not accept them, do not use the App.
Your statutory rights as a consumer. Nothing in these Terms limits or excludes any right you have under mandatory consumer-protection law that cannot be limited or excluded by contract. Where any clause conflicts with such a right, that mandatory right prevails and the rest of these Terms continue to apply.
1. Eligibility
You must be at least 13 years old to use the App. If you are under the age of digital consent in your country of residence, you may only use the App with the consent or authorization of a parent or legal guardian. If you are under the age of majority where you live, you must have a parent or legal guardian agree to these Terms on your behalf. We do not knowingly collect data from children below these thresholds and will delete such accounts on discovery.
2. What the App does (and does not do)
Yuva generates and suggests recipes based on the dietary preferences, goals, and allergy information you provide, using our own algorithms and data. The App may also apply automated personalisation that adapts suggestions based on the recipes you view, save, and cook.
The App is for general informational and educational purposes only. UMPROVE is not a doctor, dietitian, nutritionist, or healthcare provider, and the App does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, treatment, or individualised clinical dietary counselling. Using the App does not create any clinical or professional relationship.
Consult a professional. Before changing your diet, beginning a new nutritional plan, or preparing recipes suggested by the App, consult a qualified healthcare professional, particularly if you have a medical condition, a food allergy or intolerance, or are pregnant or nursing. Never disregard or delay professional medical advice because of content in the App. You rely on the App's nutritional and recipe information at your own discretion.
3. Allergen information — important safety notice
You may tell the App about food allergies and intolerances so it can filter recipe suggestions. To help protect you, the App is designed to exclude recipes from suggestions when an ingredient is known to contain, or has not been verified as free from, an allergen you have declared.
This filtering is an aid, not a guarantee. You acknowledge and agree that:
- Automated systems and ingredient data can contain errors or omissions. We do not warrant that any suggested recipe is free of any specific allergen.
- We cannot control your ingredients. Brand formulations, "may contain" manufacturer warnings, recipe substitutions, and the specific products you buy are outside our knowledge and control.
- We cannot control cross-contamination in your kitchen, in shops, or during manufacturing.
- You remain responsible for the final safety check. You must read product labels and confirm that every ingredient is safe for you before purchasing, preparing, and eating it. If you are unsure, do not consume the item.
- If you have a severe or life-threatening allergy, treat the App as a planning aid only and verify every ingredient independently.
4. Acceptable use
You agree not to, and not to help anyone else:
- use the App for any unlawful, harmful, or fraudulent purpose;
- introduce malware or attempt to gain unauthorised access to the App, its systems, or other users' data;
- scrape, crawl, or harvest data or recipes by automated means; or
- decompile, reverse-engineer, or attempt to extract the source code of the App, except to the extent this restriction is prohibited by applicable law.
5. Your content
5.1 What "Your Content" means. The App lets you create your own material: recipes you write, foods you add (including foods you create after scanning a barcode we do not recognise), photos you attach to your own recipes, and the entries in your food log. All of this is "Your Content".
5.2 Your Content is private. Yuva has no feed, profiles, comments, reviews, ratings, or any other way to publish Your Content or share it with other users. Your Content is visible only to you within your own account. All recipe and nutritional content that Yuva suggests to you is provided by UMPROVE.
5.3 Ownership. You keep ownership of Your Content. You grant us only the limited licence needed to host, store, back up, process, and display it back to you so the App works — for example, storing your recipe photo and computing nutrition totals for a recipe you wrote. We do not use Your Content for advertising, do not sell it, and do not publish it. This licence ends when you delete the content or your account, subject to the retention described in our Privacy Policy.
5.4 Your responsibility. You are responsible for Your Content and confirm you have the right to upload it — in particular, that any photo you add is yours to use. Because Your Content is not published to anyone else, we do not pre-screen or moderate it. We may remove content that is unlawful or that breaches these Terms.
5.5 If sharing is introduced later. If we add features that let you publish or share content with other users, we will update these Terms and tell you before that applies to anything you have already created.
6. Subscriptions, billing, and withdrawal rights
6.1 Free and paid features. Core features are free. We also offer optional paid subscriptions ("Premium") that unlock additional features and higher usage limits.
6.2 Purchases through app stores. Premium is sold as an auto-renewable subscription through the Apple App Store or Google Play and managed via our subscriptions provider. For these purchases:
- Auto-renewal. Your subscription renews automatically for successive periods of the same length, at the then-current price, unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
- Managing and cancelling. You manage, view, and cancel your subscription in your Apple ID / Google Play account settings. Deleting the App does not cancel a subscription. See manage-subscription.
- Price and term. The subscription length, price, and renewal terms are disclosed at the point of purchase and confirmed by the store.
- Payment and refunds. Payment is charged to your store account. Refunds for store purchases are handled by Apple or Google under their policies; we do not separately process those payments.
- Promotional and complimentary access. We may grant Premium access without a purchase — for example through a promo code. Such access is single-use, personal to your account, non-transferable, has no cash value, cannot be refunded or exchanged, and may be limited in duration. It does not auto-renew: when it expires your account returns to the free tier unless you start a paid subscription. We may withdraw complimentary access where a code was obtained or used in breach of these Terms, or where it was issued in error.
6.3 EU/EEA right of withdrawal for digital content. If you are an EU/EEA consumer, you normally have 14 days to withdraw from a purchase of digital content. By starting a paid subscription and choosing to access Premium immediately, you expressly request that performance begin during the withdrawal period and acknowledge that you thereby lose your right of withdrawal once access has begun, to the extent permitted by Article 16(m) of the Consumer Rights Directive (2011/83/EU). This does not affect any refund granted by Apple or Google under their own policies, or any remedy you have for a service that is faulty or not as described.
7. App store terms
If you obtained the App from the Apple App Store or Google Play (the "Store"):
- These Terms are between you and UMPROVE, not the Store. UMPROVE alone is responsible for the App and its content.
- The Store has no obligation to provide maintenance or support for the App.
- To the extent any warranty applies and the App fails to conform, you may notify the Store, which may refund the purchase price (if any); beyond that, the Store has no warranty obligation, and any other claims are the responsibility of UMPROVE.
- The Store is not responsible for addressing claims relating to the App, including product-liability, regulatory, or intellectual-property claims.
- You confirm you are not located in a country subject to a relevant embargo and are not on a prohibited-party list.
- The Store and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of this Section 7 and may enforce it against you.
8. Limitation of liability
8.1 What we never limit. Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits our liability for: death or personal injury caused by our negligence; fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; gross negligence or wilful misconduct; defective-product liability under applicable law; or any liability that cannot be excluded or limited under mandatory law (including your mandatory consumer rights).
8.2 Exclusion of indirect damages. Subject to Section 8.1, and to the maximum extent permitted by law, UMPROVE is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for loss of profits, data, goodwill, or anticipated savings, arising from your use of (or inability to use) the App, from third-party content, or from Your Content.
8.3 Liability cap. Subject to Section 8.1, and to the maximum extent permitted by law, our total aggregate liability for all claims relating to the App is limited to the greater of (a) the total amount you paid us for the App in the 12 months before the event giving rise to the claim, or (b) fifty euros (€50). This cap does not apply to any liability described in Section 8.1.
9. Indemnity
To the extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify UMPROVE against reasonable losses, damages, and costs (including reasonable legal fees) arising from: (a) your breach of these Terms; (b) your misuse of the App; (c) your infringement of a third party's rights; or (d) Your Content. This indemnity does not apply to the extent the loss results from our own breach, negligence, or wrongdoing, and nothing in it requires you to indemnify us for liabilities that cannot lawfully be shifted to a consumer. We will notify you of any claim, let you participate in the defence, and not settle in a way that imposes liability on you without your consent (not to be unreasonably withheld).
10. Suspension and termination
You may stop using the App and delete your account at any time, in-app or at yuva.one/delete-account. We may suspend or terminate your access if you materially breach these Terms, if required by law, or to protect the App or its users, giving you notice and an opportunity to remedy where the breach is curable and the law allows. On termination, your licence to use the App ends. We handle your data after termination in accordance with our Privacy Policy and retention schedule, and you may export your data before deletion as described there.
11. Changes to these terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. If we make material changes, we will notify you by posting the updated Terms on our website at least 14 days before they take effect and updating the "Effective date" at the top of the page. We may also notify you through an in-app announcement. If you do not accept the changes, you must stop using the App and cancel any active subscription before the changes take effect. Continued use after the effective date means you accept the updated Terms.
12. Governing law and jurisdiction
These Terms are governed by the laws of Romania, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. The courts of Suceava County, Romania have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute relating to these Terms or the App.
Consumer exception (mandatory). If you are a consumer resident in the EU/EEA, this Section does not deprive you of the protection of mandatory provisions of the law of your country of residence, and you may also bring proceedings in, and may only be sued in, the courts of your country of residence, as guaranteed by Regulation (EU) 1215/2012 and Regulation (EU) 593/2008. This exception applies only where and to the extent such mandatory law requires; in all other cases the exclusive Suceava jurisdiction above governs. EU consumers may also use the European Commission's Online Dispute Resolution platform at ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr.
13. General
13.1 Electronic communications. You consent to receive notices and disclosures from us electronically, which satisfy any legal requirement that they be in writing, except where mandatory law requires another form.
13.2 Severability. If any provision is held invalid or unenforceable, it will be modified to the minimum extent needed to make it valid, or severed if it cannot be, and the remaining provisions stay in effect.
13.3 Entire agreement. These Terms, our Privacy Policy, and our Consumer Health Data Privacy Policy constitute the entire agreement between you and UMPROVE regarding the App.
