Terms of Service

Last updated: 2026-05-27

These Terms of Service (the “Terms”) form a binding legal agreement between you and MJLyco LLC, a New Jersey limited liability company (“MJLyco,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), governing your use of the Pantry application for iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch (the “App”).

IMPORTANT NOTICE — PLEASE READ CAREFULLY. Section 14 contains a binding arbitration agreement and a class action waiver. By using the App you agree to resolve disputes with us individually through binding arbitration unless you opt out within 30 days of first installing the App. Read Section 14 in full and follow the opt-out instructions if you wish to preserve your right to litigate in court or participate in class actions.

1. Acceptance of these Terms

By downloading, installing, accessing, or using the App, you accept these Terms and our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated by reference. If you do not agree, do not download, install, or use the App; if you have already installed it, uninstall it.

If you are using the App on behalf of an organization, you represent that you have authority to bind that organization, and “you” includes that organization.

2. Eligibility and age

You must be at least 13 years old (or the older minimum age required by the laws of your jurisdiction, including 16 in parts of the EEA) to use the App. By using the App you represent that you meet this requirement. Users under the age of majority in their jurisdiction must use the App only with the involvement of a parent or legal guardian who agrees to be bound by these Terms.

3. License

Subject to your compliance with these Terms, MJLyco grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to download and use the App on Apple-branded devices that you own or control, solely for your personal, non-commercial use, and as further restricted by the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions and the Apple Licensed Application End User License Agreement (together, the “Apple Terms”). The App is licensed, not sold, to you.

All rights not expressly granted to you are reserved by MJLyco and its licensors.

4. Restrictions on use

You agree that you will not, and will not permit any third party to:

  1. Copy, modify, adapt, translate, reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or attempt to derive the source code of the App, except to the extent such restriction is prohibited by applicable law.
  2. Rent, lease, lend, sell, sublicense, redistribute, or assign the App or any part of it.
  3. Remove, alter, or obscure any copyright, trademark, or other proprietary notice in the App.
  4. Use the App in any way that violates applicable law, infringes a third party’s rights, or interferes with the App’s intended functionality.
  5. Use the App to develop a competing product, to train a machine-learning model, or to systematically extract data from third-party services the App relies on (e.g., automated bulk scanning of Open Food Facts via the App).
  6. Circumvent or attempt to circumvent any access or use restriction in the App, in your device’s operating system, or in Apple’s services.
  7. Use the App on a jailbroken or rooted device, or on a device that has been modified to bypass Apple’s security model.

5. Your content

The pantry data you create in the App — items, photos you take or import, household names, tag names, notes, quantities, expiration dates — is yours. You retain all right, title, and interest in it. MJLyco does not claim any ownership of, or license to, your content. We do not access, inspect, sell, monetize, or use your content for any purpose. See the Privacy Policy for where your content is stored.

You are solely responsible for your content, including its legality and accuracy, and for maintaining your own backups (Apple’s iCloud is your primary backup; we are not responsible for iCloud’s availability or durability).

6. Third-party services

The App interacts with the following third-party services. Your use of each is governed by the third party’s own terms and policies; MJLyco is not responsible for those services, their availability, or their accuracy.

6.1 Apple

The App relies on Apple’s iCloud (CloudKit), Apple Push Notification service, App Store, and other Apple services. Apple’s terms and privacy policy govern those services.

6.2 Open Food Facts

The App fetches product information from Open Food Facts, a free community- contributed database, when you scan or manually enter a UPC barcode. Open Food Facts’ own terms of use and privacy policy govern data they receive and serve. Their data is licensed under ODbL / DbCL / CC-BY-SA; see the Attribution page for details.

7. Product information disclaimer

Product names, brands, images, ingredient lists, allergen flags, and any other information shown for a scanned UPC come from Open Food Facts, not from MJLyco. Open Food Facts is collaboratively edited by volunteers worldwide. Entries may be incomplete, outdated, wrong, mismatched, or absent. The same UPC may identify different products in different countries or may have been reused over time by a manufacturer. Photos shown for a barcode reflect a contributor’s submission and may not match the package you are holding.

MJLyco does not produce, verify, validate, endorse, or guarantee any information sourced from Open Food Facts. You inherit Open Food Facts’ own disclaimers on completeness and accuracy.

8. NOT FOR HEALTH, ALLERGY, DIETARY, OR FOOD-SAFETY DECISIONS

THE APP IS A PANTRY-TRACKING TOOL. IT IS NOT A MEDICAL, NUTRITIONAL, OR SAFETY DEVICE. Do not use the App to make decisions about consuming, or not consuming, any food product, particularly if you, a member of your household, or anyone consuming the product has any food allergy, intolerance, dietary restriction, religious or ethical dietary requirement, or medical condition affected by what they eat.

You assume all risk arising from any reliance on information shown in the App.

9. Disclaimer of warranties

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE APP IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE,” WITH ALL FAULTS, AND WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND. MJLYCO AND ITS LICENSORS DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, ACCURACY, QUIET ENJOYMENT, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND ANY WARRANTIES ARISING FROM A COURSE OF DEALING, USAGE, OR TRADE PRACTICE.

MJLYCO DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE APP WILL MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS, BE UNINTERRUPTED, TIMELY, SECURE, OR ERROR-FREE; THAT INFORMATION SHOWN BY THE APP WILL BE ACCURATE OR RELIABLE; THAT DEFECTS WILL BE CORRECTED; OR THAT THE APP IS FREE OF VIRUSES OR OTHER HARMFUL COMPONENTS. NO ADVICE OR INFORMATION OBTAINED FROM MJLYCO OR THROUGH THE APP CREATES ANY WARRANTY NOT EXPRESSLY STATED IN THESE TERMS.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties; the above exclusions apply to you only to the extent permitted by your local law.

10. Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL MJLYCO, ITS MEMBERS, MANAGERS, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS, OR LICENSORS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, USE, GOODWILL, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF, OR INABILITY TO USE, THE APP — INCLUDING ANY ILLNESS, INJURY, ALLERGIC REACTION, OR DEATH ARISING FROM RELIANCE ON ANY INFORMATION SHOWN IN THE APP — WHETHER BASED IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, AND WHETHER OR NOT MJLYCO HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

MJLYCO’S TOTAL CUMULATIVE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS OR THE APP WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID FOR THE APP IN THE TWELVE MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM, OR (B) FIVE U.S. DOLLARS (US$5.00).

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitations may not apply to you in full. Nothing in these Terms limits or excludes liability that cannot lawfully be limited or excluded — including, in some jurisdictions, liability for fraud, gross negligence, or willful misconduct. Without limiting the foregoing, nothing in these Terms is intended to waive any right you may have under the New Jersey Consumer Fraud Act (N.J.S.A. 56:8-1 et seq.) that cannot lawfully be waived.

The limitations in this Section 10 form an essential basis of the bargain between you and MJLyco and apply even if a limited remedy fails of its essential purpose.

11. Indemnification

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless MJLyco and its members, managers, employees, contractors, and licensors from and against any claim, demand, loss, liability, damage, judgment, settlement, fine, penalty, cost, or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs) arising out of or related to: (a) your use or misuse of the App; (b) your violation of these Terms; (c) your violation of any law or any right of a third party (including any allergen, dietary, or food-safety claim by a member of your household or any other person who relied on information surfaced by the App through you); or (d) any content you create or share through the App, including via household sharing.

We may, at our discretion, assume exclusive defense and control of any matter for which you are required to indemnify us, and you agree to cooperate with our defense.

12. Intellectual property

The App, including its source code, design, text, graphics, logos, and all other content created by MJLyco, is owned by MJLyco or its licensors and is protected by copyright, trademark, and other laws of the United States and other countries. “Pantry” and any associated logo, when used in connection with this App, are trademarks of MJLyco LLC. Nothing in these Terms grants you any right to use any MJLyco trademark, trade name, or service mark.

Open Food Facts data and images carry their own licenses; see the Attribution page.

If you believe content available through the App infringes a copyright you own or control, send a notice meeting the requirements of 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3) to mjlyco@mjlyco.com.

13. Termination

These Terms remain in effect for as long as you use the App. You may terminate them at any time by uninstalling the App. We may terminate or suspend your access to the App at any time, with or without notice, for any reason, including for violation of these Terms.

Upon termination, your license under Section 3 ends and you must stop using the App. Sections 5 (your ownership of your content), 7–12, 14, and 15 survive termination.

14. Binding individual arbitration; class action waiver; opt-out

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT AND TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.

14.1 Agreement to arbitrate

You and MJLyco agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms, the App, the Privacy Policy, or your relationship with MJLyco (a “Dispute”) will be resolved exclusively through final and binding individual arbitration, and not in court, except as set forth in Section 14.5 below. The Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. §§ 1 et seq.) governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Section.

14.2 Arbitration administrator and rules

Arbitration will be administered by JAMS pursuant to its Streamlined Arbitration Rules (for claims under $250,000) or Comprehensive Arbitration Rules (for claims of $250,000 or more), available at jamsadr.com. If JAMS is unable or unwilling to administer the arbitration, the parties will agree on an alternative administrator; if they cannot agree, a court of competent jurisdiction will appoint one under 9 U.S.C. § 5. Arbitration will be conducted by a single neutral arbitrator.

14.3 Venue, fees, and procedure

Arbitration will be conducted in Newark, New Jersey, or in your county of residence if you so elect, or by telephone or video conference if the arbitrator agrees. You and MJLyco will share filing and arbitrator fees as required by the administrator’s rules; for any consumer claim under $10,000, MJLyco will reimburse your share of the fees if you prevail. Each party bears its own attorneys’ fees except where the arbitrator awards them under a statute that allows them.

The arbitrator may grant any remedy that a court could grant under applicable law, including injunctive and declarative relief, but only on an individual basis and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by the individual claim. The arbitrator’s award is final and binding and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.

14.4 Class action waiver

YOU AND MJLYCO AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, COLLECTIVE, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. The arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims and may not preside over any form of representative or class proceeding. If a court decides that this class action waiver is unenforceable as to any claim, that claim (and only that claim) will be severed from arbitration and may be brought in court; the remaining claims will proceed in arbitration.

14.5 Exceptions

Notwithstanding Section 14.1, either party may: (a) bring an individual action in small-claims court for claims within that court’s jurisdictional limits; (b) seek injunctive or other equitable relief in court to stop unauthorized use or abuse of the App, or infringement of intellectual property rights; and (c) pursue any claim the arbitration of which is barred by applicable law (such as certain claims under the EU consumer protection directives, in jurisdictions where they apply to you and where mandatory law preserves court access).

14.6 30-day right to opt out

You may opt out of this Section 14 by sending a written notice to mjlyco@mjlyco.com within 30 days of the date you first install the App. The notice must include your full name, your country and state of residence, the email address associated with your Apple ID (so we can confirm the install date), and a clear statement that you wish to opt out of the arbitration agreement and class action waiver. Opting out does not affect any other provision of these Terms.

14.7 Survival; severability

This Section 14 survives termination of these Terms. If any part of this Section 14 (other than the class action waiver in Section 14.4) is found unenforceable, that part will be severed and the remainder will continue in force. If the class action waiver is found unenforceable as to a particular claim, the consequences described in Section 14.4 apply.

15. Governing law and venue

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of New Jersey, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles, and to the extent applicable, the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is disclaimed.

Subject to Section 14 (binding arbitration), the parties consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in Essex County, New Jersey for any action not subject to arbitration, and waive any objection to venue in those courts.

Nothing in this Section 15 deprives you of the protection of any mandatory provision of the consumer-protection laws of your country of habitual residence that cannot be derogated from by agreement.

16. Apple Licensed Application End User License Agreement

The following terms apply to your use of the App when obtained through the Apple App Store, in addition to the rest of these Terms, and to the extent of any conflict, these Apple-specific terms control with respect to the matters they cover:

  1. Acknowledgment. These Terms are concluded between you and MJLyco only, and not with Apple Inc. (“Apple”). MJLyco, not Apple, is solely responsible for the App and its content.
  2. Scope of license. The license granted to you for the App is limited to a non-transferable license to use the App on any Apple- branded products that you own or control and as permitted by the Usage Rules set forth in the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions, except that the App may be accessed and used by other accounts associated with the purchaser via Family Sharing.
  3. Maintenance and support. MJLyco is solely responsible for providing any maintenance and support services for the App, as specified in these Terms or as required under applicable law. Apple has no obligation whatsoever to furnish any maintenance and support services with respect to the App.
  4. Warranty. MJLyco is solely responsible for any product warranties, whether express or implied by law, to the extent not effectively disclaimed. In the event of any failure of the App to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price for the App to you; to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Apple will have no other warranty obligation whatsoever with respect to the App, and any other claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs, or expenses attributable to any failure to conform to any warranty will be the sole responsibility of MJLyco.
  5. Product claims. MJLyco, not Apple, is responsible for addressing any of your or any third party’s claims relating to the App or your possession and/or use of the App, including (a) product liability claims; (b) any claim that the App fails to conform to any applicable legal or regulatory requirement; and (c) claims arising under consumer protection, privacy, or similar legislation.
  6. Intellectual property rights. In the event of any third party claim that the App or your possession and use of the App infringes that third party’s intellectual property rights, MJLyco — not Apple — will be solely responsible for the investigation, defense, settlement, and discharge of any such intellectual property infringement claim.
  7. Legal compliance. You represent and warrant that (i) you are not located in a country that is subject to a U.S. Government embargo, or that has been designated by the U.S. Government as a “terrorist supporting” country; and (ii) you are not listed on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
  8. Developer contact. Direct any questions, complaints, or claims to MJLyco at mjlyco@mjlyco.com.
  9. Third-party terms. You must comply with applicable third-party terms of agreement when using the App.
  10. Third party beneficiary. You and MJLyco acknowledge and agree that Apple, and Apple’s subsidiaries, are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms, and that, upon your acceptance of these Terms, Apple will have the right (and will be deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce these Terms against you as a third-party beneficiary thereof.

17. Export controls and sanctions

You may not use, export, re-export, import, or transfer the App except as authorized by U.S. law, the laws of the jurisdiction in which the App was obtained, and any other applicable laws. In particular, the App may not be exported or re-exported (a) into any U.S.-embargoed country, or (b) to anyone on the U.S. Treasury Department’s list of Specially Designated Nationals or the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Denied Persons List or Entity List.

18. U.S. Government end users

The App and related documentation are “Commercial Items,” as defined at 48 C.F.R. § 2.101, consisting of “Commercial Computer Software” and “Commercial Computer Software Documentation,” as such terms are used in 48 C.F.R. § 12.212 or 48 C.F.R. § 227.7202, as applicable. The App is licensed to U.S. Government end users only as Commercial Items and with only those rights as are granted to all other end users under these Terms.

19. Force majeure

MJLyco is not liable for any failure or delay in performance caused by events beyond its reasonable control, including acts of God, war, terrorism, civil unrest, government action, pandemic, labor dispute, internet or telecommunication failure, failure of Apple’s services, or failure of any third-party service the App depends on.

20. Changes to these Terms

We may modify these Terms from time to time. When we do, we will update the “Last updated” date at the top, and the in-app Settings → Terms of Service link will surface the new version automatically. Material changes will be reflected in a clearly higher “Last updated” date. Continued use of the App after a change indicates acceptance of the revised Terms. If you do not agree to a change, your sole remedy is to stop using and uninstall the App.

If the change would, in our reasonable judgment, materially diminish your rights under Section 14 (arbitration) or Section 10 (limitation of liability) in a way that adversely affects you, you may reject the change by sending written notice to mjlyco@mjlyco.com within 30 days; in that case, the prior version of those sections continues to apply to you until you accept the new version.
