Terms of Service
The rules of the road for using ChiliSense — accounts, acceptable use, your content, and our liability.
Last updated: 20 May 2026
01Acceptance of terms
By creating an account or using the ChiliSense website and Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
These Terms form a legally binding agreement between you and the operator of ChiliSense.
02The Service
ChiliSense is a web-based tool that runs a two-stage computer vision pipeline (instance segmentation + binary classification) on user-uploaded images to estimate chili pepper count and health. Outputs are advisory and may be inaccurate; see the Model Disclaimer for details.
03Accounts
- You must provide accurate registration information and keep it up to date.
- You are responsible for safeguarding your password and for any activity under your account.
- You must notify us promptly of any unauthorised access.
- You must be at least 13 years old (or the legal minimum in your jurisdiction).
04Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- Upload content that infringes someone's rights, is unlawful, or that you do not have the right to share.
- Attempt to reverse-engineer, scrape, or otherwise misuse the Service or its underlying models.
- Probe, scan, or test the vulnerability of the Service, or interfere with its normal operation.
- Use the Service to develop a competing product, or to train a competing machine-learning model.
- Submit images that contain illegal content or personally identifiable third parties.
05Your content
You retain ownership of the photographs and other content you upload. By using the Service you grant us a limited, non-exclusive licence to host, process, and display that content solely for the purpose of operating the Service for you.
We do not use your uploads to train our models without your explicit opt-in consent, as detailed in the Privacy Policy.
06Fees and plans
Some features may be offered under paid plans. Pricing, billing cycle, and usage limits are displayed at the point of purchase. Fees are non-refundable except where required by law.
07Service availability
We aim to keep the Service available but do not guarantee uninterrupted operation. The Service may be unavailable for maintenance, upgrades, or reasons outside our control. Inference endpoints may be subject to cold-starts and rate limits.
08No warranties
THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE", WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. ChiliSense outputs are predictions, not certified diagnoses, and may be incorrect. Do not rely on them for decisions with material safety, financial, or regulatory consequences.
09Limitation of liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ChiliSense AND ITS OPERATORS SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, OR CROPS, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE. OUR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY SHALL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US IN THE TWELVE MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM OR (B) USD 100.
10Termination
You may stop using the Service and close your account at any time. We may suspend or terminate your access if you breach these Terms, abuse the Service, or for legal or security reasons. Sections of these Terms that by their nature should survive termination (e.g. ownership, liability) will do so.
11Changes to the Terms
We may update these Terms occasionally. Material changes will be announced via the Service or by email. Continued use after the changes take effect constitutes acceptance.
