Terms of Use
Last updated: 1 October 2026
1. The service and acceptance
MycoPeek (the “App”), provided by [COMPANY NAME] (“we”, “us”), is an informational and educational tool that uses artificial intelligence to suggest which mushroom species appear in your photos. By downloading or using the App, you agree to these Terms and acknowledge our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the App.
Eligibility. You must be at least [16 / 18] years old and legally able to accept these Terms. If you are younger, you may use the App only under a parent’s supervision.
Accounts. You need an account to use the App. You are responsible for keeping your details accurate and your password confidential.
App stores. If you downloaded the App from the App Store or Google Play, that store’s terms also apply. Apple and Google are not parties to these Terms and are not responsible for the App; however, Apple is a third-party beneficiary entitled to enforce these Terms against you.
2. Safety warning — please read carefully
The App does not tell you whether a mushroom is edible or safe. Never eat any wild mushroom based solely on a result from the App.
Some deadly species (e.g. Amanita phalloides) closely resemble edible ones and cannot be reliably told apart from a photo. AI cannot detect key features such as smell, spore print, bruising or taste. Results may be wrong, incomplete or inconsistent.
Do not use the App to decide:
- Whether a mushroom is edible, non-toxic or safe
- Whether to touch, pick, cook, eat, feed to animals, sell or serve it
- How to respond to suspected poisoning, allergies or emergencies
- Anything involving commercial sale, restaurants or food preparation
- Questions about protected species, foraging permits or local rules
The App is not a substitute for expert advice. If you are unsure, consult an experienced mycologist or a local mycological society.
If you suspect poisoning, contact your local emergency number or poison control center immediately (in Turkey: 112 or 114). The App is not an emergency service.
By using the App, you confirm that you understand these risks and that you are solely responsible for any action you take based on its results.
3. Subscriptions and payments
The free version includes a limited number of free scans. A MycoPeek Pro subscription provides the features shown on the subscription screen in the App: a larger scan allowance for each billing period, detailed AI analysis, look-alike species comparison and your full scan history.
- Plans and prices: Monthly and yearly. Current prices, including taxes, are shown on the purchase screen and in the store.
- Payment: Charged to your Apple ID or Google Play account at confirmation of purchase. Payments are processed by the store, not by us.
- Auto-renewal: Your subscription renews automatically for the same period at the then-current price unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. The renewal charge is made within 24 hours before the period ends.
- Free trials: If a trial is offered, it converts to a paid subscription unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the trial ends. Any unused portion of a trial is forfeited when you purchase a subscription.
- Cancellation: You can cancel at any time in your App Store or Google Play subscription settings. Deleting the App does not cancel your subscription. After cancelling, you keep access until the end of the current period.
- Refunds: Refund requests are governed by Apple’s or Google’s policies and must be made to them. Except where required by law, we do not refund partially used periods.
- Price changes: We may change prices; a new price applies from your first renewal after notice is given under the store’s rules.
Where you consent to immediate delivery of digital content, your statutory right of withdrawal may not apply under applicable consumer law (including Turkish Law No. 6502 and the EU Consumer Rights Directive).
4. Content and rules of use
Your content stays yours. You own the photos you upload (“User Content”). By uploading it, you grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use it only as needed to provide the service, generate results, keep the App secure and improve it. This license includes sending content to the service providers listed in our Privacy Policy. You confirm that you have the right to upload it.
Prohibited uses. You agree not to:
- Use the App for unlawful, fraudulent or harmful purposes
- Upload content that infringes others’ copyright, privacy or publicity rights
- Upload malware or try to bypass security measures or usage limits
- Access the App without permission using bots, scrapers or other automated tools
- Reverse engineer or copy the App, or use it to build a competing product
- Present results to others as “expert-verified” or as a guarantee of edibility
Results. You may use identification results for lawful purposes. We do not guarantee that results are unique; the same result may be given to other users.
Intellectual property. The App’s software, design, brand, text, images and species information belong to us or our licensors. You receive only a limited, non-transferable license to use the App for personal, non-commercial purposes.
Feedback. We may use your suggestions and feedback freely, without compensation to you.
5. Liability
Disclaimer of warranties. The App and all results are provided “as is” and “as available”. To the maximum extent permitted by law, we do not warrant that results will be accurate, complete or fit for any particular purpose, or that the App will be uninterrupted or error-free.
Limitation of liability. To the maximum extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special or consequential damages, or loss of profits or data, arising from use of the App or its results. This includes damages arising from picking, handling or eating any mushroom. Our total liability is limited to the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the event giving rise to the claim.
These limitations do not affect liability for intent or gross negligence, or any liability that cannot be limited by law (including under Article 115 of the Turkish Code of Obligations). Your statutory rights as a consumer are not affected.
Indemnity. To the extent permitted by law, you agree to cover losses and costs arising from claims against us caused by your breach of these Terms or third-party rights, or by your User Content.
Third-party services. The App relies on third-party services such as AI, cloud storage, notifications and payments. Except where required by law, we are not responsible for their content or practices.
6. Other terms
Suspension and termination. We may restrict or end your access if we reasonably believe you have breached these Terms or used the App abusively or unlawfully. You may stop at any time by deleting the App and closing your account. Provisions that by their nature should survive (liability, indemnity, governing law) continue after termination.
Changes to the service. We may change, suspend or discontinue features of the App.
Changes to these Terms. We may update these Terms. The current version is published on this page with its new date, and we will notify you of significant changes within the App. Continuing to use the App after the effective date means you accept the new Terms.
Governing law and disputes. These Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of Türkiye. The courts and enforcement offices of [JURISDICTION] have jurisdiction. This does not affect consumers’ right to apply to Turkish Consumer Arbitration Committees and Consumer Courts, or the right of consumers living in the EU to rely on the mandatory protections of their own country’s law.
General. If any provision is found invalid, the rest remain in effect. Our failure to enforce a right is not a waiver of it. These Terms and the Privacy Policy are the entire agreement between you and us.
