Terms of Service

Effective Date: 2026-08-08

Welcome to yourmenu.app (the “Service”), operated by Sea View Software GmbH, Steinstraße 81–83, 35390 Gießen, Germany, registered at Amtsgericht Gießen under HRB 12514, represented by the Managing Director Robin Heller (“we”, “our”, “us”). By accessing or using the Service, you (“you”, “user”) agree to be bound by these Terms of Service (“Terms”). If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

1. Acceptance of Terms

By using the Service you confirm that you are at least 18 years old and have the legal capacity to enter into a binding agreement. If you use the Service on behalf of a business or other organisation, you represent that you have authority to bind that organisation and its use to these Terms.

2. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be announced on the website and, where legally required, notified to you by email at least 30 days before they take effect. Your continued use of the Service after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms. If you do not agree, you may terminate your account in accordance with Section 15.

3. Description of the Service

The Service lets you create digital menus, publish them on a public web address and print QR codes that link to them, and update items and prices at any time. Published menus are viewable by anyone holding the link or scanning the QR code — they are public by design and are not password-protected. The Service is provided on a best-effort basis; we do not guarantee uninterrupted, timely or error-free availability.

4. Accounts and sign-in

Sign-in is passwordless: we email you a one-time link or code. You are responsible for keeping access to your email account secure, since anyone who can read your inbox can sign in as you. You must provide accurate account information and notify us immediately of any unauthorised use of your account.

5. Your menu content and its accuracy

You are solely responsible for the accuracy of everything you publish, including item descriptions, prices, currencies, and allergen and dietary information. This matters: menu information is consumer-facing and, in the EU, allergen declarations are subject to mandatory food-information law (Regulation (EU) No 1169/2011 and national implementing rules). We provide tools for recording that information; we do not verify it, and we are not the food business operator. Check your published menu before putting a QR code in front of guests.

6. AI-assisted menu extraction

The Service can draft menu items from a photo or PDF you upload, using an AI model. These drafts are suggestions that you must review and correct before publishing. Automated extraction can misread names, prices, currencies and allergen information. We make no warranty as to the accuracy of extracted content, and publishing it remains your decision and your responsibility under Section 5.

7. Acceptable use

You agree not to use the Service to:

violate any applicable law or regulation; distribute spam, malware, phishing or other harmful content; infringe any intellectual property, personality or privacy rights of others; engage in fraudulent, deceptive or misleading practices; publish content depicting violence, hatred, sexual exploitation of minors, or that is otherwise unlawful under German or EU law; or misrepresent a business you are not authorised to represent.

8. Plans, fees, payment and VAT

Merchant of Record: payments are processed by Paddle.com Market Ltd. acting as Merchant of Record. Paddle handles payment, invoicing and the collection and remittance of applicable taxes (including VAT/USt).

Prices: prices are displayed in the currency shown at checkout. For B2C customers in the EU, prices include statutory VAT where applicable; for B2B customers with a valid VAT ID, the reverse-charge procedure may apply in accordance with EU VAT rules.

Renewals: paid plans renew automatically at the end of each billing cycle unless cancelled before renewal. You may cancel at any time from the billing area of the Service.

Free plan: we offer a free plan with limited features. We may change the limits of, or discontinue, the free plan with reasonable notice.

Refunds: we offer a 14-day, no-questions-asked money-back guarantee on the initial purchase of any paid plan, as set out in our Refund Policy. Beyond that window, fees are non-refundable except (a) where required by law (see Section 9), (b) where expressly stated in these Terms or the Refund Policy, or (c) at our sole discretion.

9. EU consumer withdrawal right (Widerrufsrecht)

If you are a consumer domiciled in the European Union, you have the right to withdraw from the purchase of a paid plan within 14 days of the conclusion of the contract, without giving a reason, pursuant to §§ 355, 356 BGB.

You expressly consent, and acknowledge that you lose your right of withdrawal, once we begin performing the digital service with your consent before the end of the 14-day withdrawal period (§ 356 Abs. 5 BGB). Activating a paid subscription and using the paid features constitutes such consent.

To exercise the withdrawal right before performance begins, send an unambiguous statement to [email protected] identifying yourself and the subscription you wish to withdraw from. Refunds, where applicable, are issued via Paddle to the original payment method.

10. Intellectual property

All content, features and functionality provided through the Service, including text, graphics, logos, templates and software, are the exclusive property of Sea View Software GmbH or its licensors and are protected by copyright, trademark and other intellectual property laws. You are granted a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to use the Service and the menus and QR codes it generates for their intended purpose, including in your own venue and marketing materials.

11. Your content and the licence you grant us

Licence to us: by uploading or creating content through the Service, you grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free licence to host, reproduce, process and display that content solely as necessary to provide and improve the Service — including publishing it on your public menu page and, where you use the extraction feature, transmitting it to our AI sub-processor. This licence ends when you delete the content or your account, except for backups retained for a limited period and anonymised aggregate data.

Your responsibility: you are solely responsible for the content you upload or generate and for holding all necessary rights and consents, including for photographs. You warrant that your use of such content does not infringe third-party rights.

Takedown: we may remove content that, in our reasonable judgement, violates these Terms or applicable law. Rights holders may submit takedown notices to [email protected].

12. Availability of published menus

Your published menu and its QR code depend on the Service remaining active for your account. If your account is terminated, or a paid plan lapses and your menu exceeds the limits of the free plan, the affected menus may stop resolving — a printed QR code pointing to them would then no longer reach a live menu. Plan accordingly before printing at scale, and export your data before terminating.

13. Disclaimer of warranties

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Service is provided “AS IS” and “AS AVAILABLE”. We do not warrant that the Service will meet your requirements or that it will be uninterrupted, timely, secure or error-free. Nothing in this Section limits mandatory statutory warranty rights of consumers.

14. Limitation of liability

We are fully liable for damages arising from injury to life, body or health caused by our breach of duty, and for damages caused intentionally or by gross negligence by us, our legal representatives or vicarious agents. We are also liable under the German Product Liability Act and for damages caused by fraudulent concealment of a defect or breach of a guarantee.

For breaches of material contractual obligations caused by slight negligence, our liability is limited to damages that are foreseeable and typical for this type of contract. Material contractual obligations are obligations whose fulfilment is essential for the proper performance of the contract and on whose observance you may regularly rely.

Any further liability is excluded. In particular, we are not liable for lost profits, loss of data, or indirect or consequential damages arising from slight negligence. The statutory liability of Sea View Software GmbH towards consumers remains unaffected.

15. Termination

By you: you may terminate your account at any time from the Service or by contacting us. Termination takes effect at the end of the current paid billing cycle; fees already paid are non-refundable except where required by law.

By us: we may suspend or terminate your access with reasonable notice for convenience, and immediately for material breach of these Terms or applicable law, non-payment, or abusive use. Statutory termination rights remain unaffected.

Effect of termination: upon termination we will cease providing the Service, your published menus will stop resolving, and your content may be deleted after a reasonable grace period. Please export your data before terminating. Sections that by their nature should survive (in particular 5, 10, 11.1, 13, 14, 16 and 17) survive termination.

16. Governing law and jurisdiction

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany, excluding the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG). For consumers domiciled in the EU, mandatory consumer-protection provisions of the consumer’s country of residence remain unaffected.

The exclusive place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising out of or in connection with these Terms, to the extent legally permissible, is Gießen, Germany. This applies in particular to disputes with merchants, legal entities under public law and special funds under public law within the meaning of § 38 ZPO.

EU Online Dispute Resolution: the European Commission provides a platform for online dispute resolution at https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr. We are not obliged and not willing to participate in dispute resolution proceedings before a consumer arbitration board.

17. Severability

If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in full force and effect, and the invalid provision shall be replaced by a valid provision that most closely reflects the economic intent of the original.

18. Entire agreement

These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy, the Refund Policy and the Imprint, constitute the entire agreement between you and Sea View Software GmbH regarding the Service and supersede any prior agreements.
