Important warning: please read carefully before using Yumii.
1. Nature of the Service
Yumii is NOT a medical device, is NOT a healthcare service and does NOT provide diagnoses, prescriptions or therapies of any kind.
Yumii is a nutrition self-tracking application that provides indicative estimates of food nutritional values through artificial intelligence (“App”). The information generated by the App is provided solely for informational and orientation purposes.
Yumii is not classified as a medical device under Regulation (EU) 2017/745 (MDR) and is not subject to CE marking in the medical field.
2. Limits and accuracy of AI estimates
By using the App, the User acknowledges and expressly accepts that nutritional estimates provided by Yumii are generated by an artificial intelligence model and are subject to an inherent margin of error.
Photo-based estimates may be affected by many factors, including image quality, dish complexity, lighting, hidden ingredients and preparation methods. AI may fail to identify hidden ingredients, condiments, cooking methods or actual portions correctly.
Nutritional values obtained from product databases, including Open Food Facts, may be incomplete, outdated or inaccurate. Yumii excludes any liability in relation to such data to the extent permitted by law.
Basal metabolic rate (BMR) and total daily energy expenditure (TDEE) calculations are based on generalised formulas, including Mifflin-St Jeor, and do not take individual specificities into account.
Suggestions from the AI assistant (Yumii Coach) are general in nature and do not constitute a personalised meal plan. The User acknowledges that information provided by the App consists of approximate estimates and not scientifically validated data.
For these reasons, Yumii shall not be held responsible for the correctness of AI Estimates or for decisions that the User may take after using the App, including use of medication without consulting a doctor, starting specific training programmes or undertaking other treatments.
3. No replacement for medical or nutritional advice
Yumii does NOT replace the advice of a doctor, nutritionist, dietitian, dietologist or any other qualified healthcare professional.
The information provided by the App must not be considered personalised medical, nutritional or dietary advice. For any decision relating to diet, health or physical wellbeing, the User must consult a qualified healthcare professional.
The App is not designed to manage, treat or prevent any medical condition or disease. App information must not be used for self-diagnosis or self-treatment.
4. Warnings
Use of the App may not be suitable for individuals with specific health conditions, special nutritional needs or situations requiring professional monitoring.
By way of example, these situations include medical, psychological, metabolic, allergic or nutritional conditions requiring personalised assessment by a healthcare professional, as well as pregnancy.
In such cases, the User must consult a doctor or another qualified professional before using the App.
5. Specific allergen warning
Yumii does NOT guarantee allergen identification. The App must not be used as a tool to manage food allergies or intolerances.
Artificial intelligence may fail to detect gluten, lactose, nuts, peanuts, crustaceans, eggs, soy, sesame or other common allergens. People with food allergies must always verify ingredients directly with the manufacturer or restaurant.
6. Medical emergencies
In case of a medical emergency, allergic reaction, illness or any worrying symptom, the User must immediately contact emergency services (112 in Italy / 999 in Ireland / 911 in the United States) or their doctor.
Yumii is not an emergency tool and cannot provide assistance in health-threatening situations.
