Terms of Use
Last updated: February 25, 2026
Who We Are
MamaSkin is operated by Simone Parenti (the Service Provider), trading as MamaSkin, as a sole trader.
These Terms apply to your use of the MamaSkin website, mobile app, and related services (together, the "Service").
Medical and Pregnancy Disclaimer
Important: MamaSkin is informational only. It is not medical advice, diagnosis, treatment, or a medical device.
- Always seek advice from your GP, midwife, obstetric team, pharmacist, or other qualified healthcare professional for personal decisions during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
- Do not ignore or delay professional advice because of information from the Service.
- In emergencies, contact emergency services immediately.
- The Service does not derive or assess your personal health status, physiological condition, or individual health risks. No information provided through the Service constitutes or is derived from health data processing for diagnosis, treatment, or clinical decision-making.
1. Acceptance of These Terms
By downloading, accessing, or using the Service, you agree to these Terms and our Privacy Policy.
If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
2. Eligibility
You must be at least 18, or have permission from a parent/guardian able to enter legal agreements on your behalf.
If you are under 13, you must not use the Service.
3. Service Description
MamaSkin helps you review cosmetic product and ingredient information, including pregnancy and breastfeeding-oriented risk bands.
Results are educational and informational and are not a substitute for professional healthcare advice.
Risk band definitions are set out in our Methodology page and form part of these Terms. These categories describe evidence-based scoring bands and do not guarantee clinical safety for any individual.
4. No Affiliation with Brands
Unless explicitly stated, MamaSkin is not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by, or authorised by any cosmetic, skincare, pharmacy, retail, or ingredient brand referenced in the Service. Brand names and marks are used for identification and commentary purposes only.
5. Acceptable Use
You agree not to misuse the Service, including by:
- breaking any law or regulation;
- attempting to reverse engineer, disrupt, or scrape the Service at scale;
- uploading unlawful, harmful, infringing, or abusive content;
- using the Service for unauthorised commercial resale.
6. Subscriptions, Trials, and Billing
Some features require a paid subscription. Pricing, billing period, and trial terms are shown in-app at purchase.
- In-app purchases are processed by Apple App Store or Google Play, not directly by us.
- Subscriptions auto-renew unless cancelled before renewal via your App Store / Google Play account settings.
- Refunds are subject to the relevant store's policies and processes.
- Where required by applicable consumer law, we may provide remedies directly. Nothing here limits your statutory rights.
7. Digital Content Cancellation Rights
If you are a UK or EU consumer, you may have statutory cancellation rights for digital services. Where immediate access to digital content is provided, those rights may be reduced or lost once performance begins after required consent/acknowledgement during checkout.
Nothing in these Terms removes your mandatory consumer rights under applicable law.
Nothing in these Terms affects your statutory consumer rights under applicable UK law, including rights that digital content must be of satisfactory quality, fit for purpose, and as described under the Consumer Rights Act 2015.
8. User Content, Scans, and AI Features
You keep ownership of content you submit (for example, scan photos or text prompts). You grant us a non-exclusive licence to host, process, and use that content only to operate, secure, improve, and support the Service.
We may send relevant inputs (such as scan image data, extracted scan text, and text prompts) to trusted processors and AI providers solely to deliver requested features.
AI Helper chat is optional and controlled by the in-app AI data sharing setting. Separately, certain scan and product-identification features use AI processing as part of the core scan workflow.
When you use those scan features, you instruct us to process the necessary scan inputs to return scan results. Turning off AI Helper chat does not by itself disable all scan-related AI processing.
Any AI-assisted output is provided for informational purposes only and does not constitute clinical judgement, expert medical opinion, or endorsement by a healthcare professional.
Our Privacy Policy explains what personal data we process, the legal bases we rely on, and whether any special category data is processed.
You are responsible for ensuring you have rights to upload content and that you do not submit unlawful or infringing material.
9. Product Formulation and Label Disclaimer
Product manufacturers can reformulate at any time. Ingredient lists may differ by region, batch, retailer listing, or packaging cycle.
We do not warrant that any product listing is permanently complete, current, or identical to the product you hold. You should always verify the live label/packaging before use.
10. Third-Party Services Disclaimer
The Service relies on third-party infrastructure and tools (for example analytics, crash reporting, payment platforms, cloud hosting, and AI services).
We are not responsible for third-party systems, websites, apps, terms, or outputs outside our reasonable control, including outputs returned by external AI providers.
11. Intellectual Property
MamaSkin branding, software, design, database structure, and website/app content are protected by intellectual property laws.
You receive a limited, revocable, non-transferable licence to use the Service for personal, non-commercial use in line with these Terms.
12. Disclaimer of Warranties (AS IS)
To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Service is provided on an "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" basis, without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, statutory, or otherwise.
This includes, without limitation, implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, accuracy, availability, and uninterrupted or error-free operation.
We do not warrant that the Service will always be secure, complete, current, or free from defects.
13. Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or any loss of profits, revenue, goodwill, data, or opportunities arising out of or related to your use of the Service.
We are also not liable for loss arising from product reformulations, inaccurate third-party product listings, third-party outages, or reliance on informational outputs of the Service.
Our total aggregate liability for all claims relating to the Service is limited to the amount you paid us for the Service in the 12 months before the event giving rise to the claim, or GBP 100 if greater.
Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability where unlawful to do so, including liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud, fraudulent misrepresentation, or breach of mandatory consumer rights.
14. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Service Provider from claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable legal costs) arising from your misuse of the Service, your breach of these Terms, or your violation of law or third-party rights.
15. Suspension and Termination
We may suspend or terminate access if you materially breach these Terms, misuse the Service, or where needed for legal, operational, or security reasons.
You can stop using the Service at any time and may delete the app from your device.
16. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. The latest version will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date.
17. Governing Law, Jurisdiction, and Disputes
These Terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales.
Before starting court proceedings, you and we agree to try to resolve any dispute in good faith through written notice and informal discussion for at least 30 days.
If you are a UK consumer, you may bring proceedings in the courts of your local UK jurisdiction as permitted by law.
To the extent permitted by law, you and we agree that claims will be brought on an individual basis, and not as a claimant or class member in any representative or class proceeding.
