MeNome Terms of Service and End User License Agreement
Effective date: June 2, 2026
These Terms of Service and End User License Agreement (together, the "Terms") govern your use of the MeNome mobile application and related services (the "App"), provided by BellyMD, Inc. ("BellyMD," "MeNome," "we," "us," or "our"), a Delaware corporation. They are separate from the BellyMD e-commerce Terms that govern supplement purchases.
At a glance
In short: MeNome is a wellness and educational tool — not a doctor and not a medical device. You own the data you put in. We won't sell it or use your health data for ads. Please read the full Terms, including how disputes are handled (Section 15) and the protections we extend to users everywhere.
1. Agreement to these Terms
By downloading, installing, or using the App, you agree to these Terms, our Privacy Policy, and our Medical Disclaimer. If you do not agree, please do not use the App. At first launch or account creation, you accept these documents through an affirmative tap, and we record the date and version of your acceptance.
2. Eligibility
You must be at least 18 years old to use the App, in every country where it is available, and able to form a binding contract. By using the App, you represent that you meet the age requirement, that your information is accurate, and that you are not barred from using the App under applicable law.
3. What MeNome is (and is not)
MeNome is a consumer wellness and educational tool that helps you track gut and digestive symptoms, generates a wellness indicator (BellyScore), offers an assistant (Cora), can connect to Apple Health, and offers an optional BioScan feature.
MeNome is not a medical device. It does not diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease, condition, or illness, it does not provide medical advice, and it is not a substitute for professional care. The BellyScore, BioScan outputs, Cora responses, and all insights are for general informational and self-tracking purposes only. See the Medical Disclaimer, incorporated by reference.
Always seek the advice of a qualified health provider with any questions about a medical condition, and never disregard or delay professional medical advice because of something in the App. In an emergency, call your local emergency number.
4. License grant
Subject to these Terms, BellyMD grants you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to download and use one copy of the App on Apple-branded devices you own or control, solely for your personal, non-commercial use, and as permitted by the Apple App Store Terms and the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions.
5. License restrictions
You agree not to, and not to let others:
- copy, modify, or create derivative works of the App;
- reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the App, except where applicable law prohibits this restriction;
- rent, lease, lend, sell, sublicense, or distribute the App;
- remove or alter any proprietary notices;
- use the App to build a competing product, or scrape or extract data from it;
- use the App unlawfully or in violation of these Terms;
- interfere with or disrupt the App or its servers, or attempt unauthorized access; or
- rely on the App for medical, diagnostic, or treatment decisions.
6. Accounts and security
You may need an account or email address to use certain features. You are responsible for the accuracy of your information, for keeping your credentials secure, and for activity under your account. Notify us promptly of any unauthorized use.
7. Your content and data
You own the content and data you submit (your "User Content") — your check-ins, health-history entries, notes, and BioScan inputs.
You grant BellyMD a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, process, and use your User Content solely to operate, provide, secure, and improve the App and to deliver the features you request, all as described in the Privacy Policy. We will not use your identifiable health-related User Content for advertising, and we will not sell it.
You also grant BellyMD a license to use de-identified or aggregated data derived from your User Content (data that does not identify you) to conduct research and improve our products, methods, and models. Any use of your identifiable health-related data for research is governed by a separate, specific in-app consent (see Section 4 of the Privacy Policy). You are responsible for your User Content and represent that you have the right to provide it.
8. Health data and device permissions
The App can request access to your camera and microphone (for the optional BioScan), Apple Health, your calendar (optional Life Pattern Sync), and notifications. These features are optional, you control them through your device's permission prompts and settings, and you can revoke any permission at any time. Data from Apple Health is subject to the additional restrictions in the Privacy Policy and Apple's requirements (no advertising, no sale, no unauthorized third-party sharing).
9. The Cora assistant
The App includes an assistant named "Cora." In the current build, Cora returns pre-written responses; it does not use a third-party large-language-model service and does not transmit your messages to an external AI provider.
Cora is an automated informational tool. It is not a medical professional and does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Using Cora does not create a doctor-patient, therapist-patient, or any other professional relationship. Cora's responses may be incomplete or inaccurate and must not be relied on for any health decision. In an emergency, call your local emergency number.
10. Subscriptions, billing, and cancellation
The App offers a free tier and optional paid subscriptions. The specific plans, prices, and billing periods are those shown in the App at the time of purchase.
Purchases through Apple. Paid subscriptions are sold and processed by Apple through in-app purchase, charged to your Apple Account. BellyMD does not receive or store your payment card details.
Auto-renewal. Subscriptions automatically renew for the same period unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the period ends. Your Apple Account is charged within 24 hours before renewal at the then-current price.
Managing and canceling. Manage and cancel in your Apple Account settings (Settings > your name > Subscriptions). Deleting the App does not cancel a subscription.
Free trials and promotions. Unused trial time is forfeited when you purchase a subscription, where applicable.
Price changes. We may change prices going forward; Apple will provide any notice and consent its rules and applicable law require before an increase takes effect.
10.1 Refunds
All purchases are processed by Apple, and refunds are handled by Apple under Apple's policies. BellyMD generally cannot issue refunds for in-app purchases. To request one, use Apple's "Report a Problem" process.
11. Intellectual property
The App — including its software, design, text, graphics, the BellyScore methodology, Cora, and all related content and trademarks (including "BellyMD," "MeNome," "BellyScore," and "Cora") — is owned by BellyMD or its licensors and protected by intellectual-property laws. Except for the limited license in Section 4, no rights are granted to you.
12. Third-party services and Apple
The App relies on third-party services, including Apple. Your use of Apple services is governed by Apple's terms. The Apple-specific provisions in Section 19 apply.
13. Disclaimers
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE APP IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.
WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE APP WILL BE ACCURATE, RELIABLE, UNINTERRUPTED, OR ERROR-FREE, OR THAT ANY BIOSCAN MEASUREMENT, BELLYSCORE, OR CORA RESPONSE IS ACCURATE OR SUITABLE FOR ANY PURPOSE. BIOSCAN OUTPUTS ARE ESTIMATES PRODUCED BY CONSUMER SENSORS AND ALGORITHMS AND MAY DIFFER FROM CLINICAL MEASUREMENTS.
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties, so some of the above may not apply to you. Nothing in these Terms limits any rights you have under mandatory consumer-protection law in your jurisdiction.
14. Limitation of liability
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, BELLYMD AND ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AND AGENTS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST PROFITS, LOST DATA, OR LOSS OF GOODWILL, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO YOUR USE OF THE APP.
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, BELLYMD'S TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS RELATING TO THE APP WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID BELLYMD IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM, OR (B) ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS (USD $100).
Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations, so some of the above may not apply to you. Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited under applicable law.
15. Dispute resolution; arbitration and class-action waiver
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL AND TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION. This Section 15 applies to users in the United States. If you reside in the EEA, the UK, or another jurisdiction whose law gives you a non-waivable right to bring claims in your local courts, this Section does not deprive you of that right.
15.1 Informal resolution. Before filing a claim, you agree to try to resolve the dispute informally by contacting support@belly-md.com and allowing 30 days.
15.2 Binding arbitration. Except for the carve-outs in Section 15.4, you and BellyMD agree that any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the App will be resolved by binding individual arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its Consumer Arbitration Rules, rather than in court. The Federal Arbitration Act governs this Section. A single arbitrator will conduct the arbitration, and the hearing location is determined under the AAA Consumer Rules (which generally let you elect your home county, telephone, or videoconference). The arbitrator may award the same individual relief a court could.
15.3 Class-action waiver. You and BellyMD agree each may bring claims only in an individual capacity, not as a plaintiff or class member in any class, collective, consolidated, or representative proceeding.
15.4 Carve-outs. This Section does not apply to: (a) an individual claim in small-claims court that stays there; (b) a request for injunctive or equitable relief to stop infringement or misuse of intellectual property; or (c) any claim that, by law, cannot be required to be arbitrated or waived — including non-waivable claims under the Washington My Health My Data Act, other consumer-protection or consumer-health-data statutes, and mandatory rights under the law of your home jurisdiction. Those claims may proceed in a court of competent jurisdiction.
15.5 Opt-out. You may opt out of this arbitration agreement within 30 days of first accepting these Terms by emailing support@belly-md.com with your name and a statement that you opt out. Opting out does not affect the rest of these Terms.
15.6 Severability. If the class-action waiver in 15.3 is found unenforceable as to a claim, that claim is severed and may proceed in court while the rest goes to arbitration. If 15.2 is found unenforceable entirely, disputes will be resolved in the courts in Section 16.
16. Governing law and venue
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to conflict-of-laws principles. Subject to Section 15, you and BellyMD consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state and federal courts in New Castle County, Delaware for any dispute not subject to arbitration. The consumer-protection and consumer-health-data laws of your home jurisdiction may still apply to you regardless of this choice.
17. Termination
We may suspend or terminate your access at any time, including for violation of these Terms. You may stop using the App at any time and delete it. Sections that by their nature should survive (including 7, 11, 13, 14, 15, 16, and 20) survive termination.
18. Changes to the App and these Terms
We may modify or discontinue the App or any feature at any time. We may update these Terms; we will post the updated version with a new "Effective date" and, where required, give additional notice. Continued use after changes take effect constitutes acceptance.
19. Apple-specific terms
Because the App is distributed through the Apple App Store, you acknowledge:
- These Terms are between you and BellyMD only, not Apple. Apple is not responsible for the App or its content.
- The license in Section 4 is limited to Apple-branded devices, as permitted by the Apple Media Services Terms.
- Maintenance and support are BellyMD's responsibility, not Apple's.
- To the extent any warranty is not effectively disclaimed, BellyMD (not Apple) is responsible; if the App fails to conform to a warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple may refund the purchase price (if any). Apple has no other warranty obligation.
- BellyMD, not Apple, is responsible for product-liability, legal/regulatory, and intellectual-property claims relating to the App, to the extent required by these Terms and applicable law.
- In the event of a third-party IP infringement claim, BellyMD, not Apple, is responsible for its investigation, defense, settlement, and discharge.
- You represent you are not located in a U.S.-embargoed or "terrorist-supporting" country and are not on any U.S. Government restricted-parties list.
- Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and may enforce them against you.
20. Miscellaneous
Entire agreement. These Terms, the Privacy Policy, and the Medical Disclaimer are the entire agreement between you and BellyMD regarding the App.
Severability. If any provision is unenforceable, the rest remains in effect.
No waiver. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver.
Assignment. You may not assign these Terms; we may assign them in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.
Notices. We may provide notices through the App or by email.
