These terms and conditions apply to the HalalGuide app (hereinafter referred to as “Application”) for mobile devices that was created by HalalGuide (hereinafter referred to as “Service Provider”) as a Freemium service.
By downloading or utilizing the Application, you automatically agree to the following terms. It is strongly advised that you thoroughly read and understand these terms before using the Application. Unauthorized copying, modification of the Application, any part of the Application, or our trademarks is strictly prohibited. Any attempts to extract the source code of the Application, translate the Application into other languages, or create derivative versions are not permitted. All trademarks, copyrights, database rights, and other intellectual property rights related to the Application remain the property of the Service Provider.
1. Use of the Application
HalalGuide is designed to help users find halal spots around the world, including restaurants, cafés, candy shops, butchers, supermarkets, and many more categories. Restaurants and businesses have profiles that may include their logo, photos, name, address, phone number, email, delivery options, business hours, and ratings/reviews.
Categorization of Restaurants:
Green Halal Tag: The restaurant offers 100% halal food, and no alcohol is served.
Yellow Halal Tag: All food is halal, but alcohol is served.
Red Halal Tag: Halal food is served alongside non-halal food, and alcohol is served.
Disclaimer: The Service Provider does not take responsibility for the accuracy of the information provided by the restaurants, including their self-categorization. If a restaurant has been incorrectly categorized, the Service Provider will update the information in the Application as soon as they become aware of the discrepancy.
2. Product and Ingredient Scanner
The Application provides a scanner function that allows users to scan products using their barcode. The Application will display the product’s ingredients, nutritional information, and more.
Ingredient Classification:
Ingredients are categorized by the Service Provider as halal, mushbooh, or haram based on their understanding. Users can customize these classifications according to their beliefs on their profiles.
Allergy Warnings:
Users can mark certain ingredients as allergens. The Application will alert them if a scanned product contains an ingredient they have marked as an allergen.
Disclaimer: The Service Provider does not assume responsibility for any errors in the data related to halal status, allergens, or other information. While we strive to ensure the accuracy of the information, users are advised to verify this information independently.
3. Offers and Discounts
The Service Provider may offer promotions, discounts, or other deals through the Application. These offers are subject to availability and terms specified by the participating businesses. The Service Provider is not responsible for any disputes arising from the redemption of these offers.
4. User-Generated Content
The Application allows users to submit reviews, ratings, and other content. By submitting content, you grant the Service Provider a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to use, display, and distribute this content within the Application. The Service Provider reserves the right to remove or modify any user-generated content that is deemed inappropriate, misleading, or in violation of these terms.
5. Business Listings
While the Service Provider strives to maintain accurate and up-to-date business information, it cannot guarantee the completeness or accuracy of the listings. Businesses are responsible for ensuring their information is correct. Users are encouraged to verify the details independently before making any decisions based on the listings.
6. Application Modifications
The Service Provider is dedicated to ensuring that the Application is as beneficial and efficient as possible. As such, they reserve the right to modify the Application or charge for their services at any time and for any reason. The Service Provider assures you that any charges for the Application or its services will be clearly communicated to you.
7. Personal Data and Security
The Application stores and processes personal data that you have provided to the Service Provider in order to provide the Service. It is your responsibility to maintain the security of your phone and access to the Application. The Service Provider strongly advises against jailbreaking or rooting your phone, as this could expose your phone to malware, viruses, malicious programs, compromise your phone’s security features, and may result in the Application not functioning correctly or at all.
8. Third-Party Services
The Application utilizes third-party services that have their own Terms and Conditions. Below are the links to the Terms and Conditions of the third-party service providers used by the Application:
Google Play Services
Google Analytics for Firebase
Firebase Crashlytics
Facebook
9. Limitation of Liability
Please be aware that the Service Provider does not assume responsibility for certain aspects. Some functions of the Application require an active internet connection, which can be Wi-Fi or provided by your mobile network provider. The Service Provider cannot be held responsible if the Application does not function at full capacity due to lack of access to Wi-Fi or if you have exhausted your data allowance.
If you are using the Application outside of a Wi-Fi area, please be aware that your mobile network provider’s agreement terms still apply. Consequently, you may incur charges from your mobile provider for data usage during the connection to the Application, or other third-party charges. By using the Application, you accept responsibility for any such charges, including roaming data charges if you use the Application outside of your home territory (i.e., region or country) without disabling data roaming. If you are not the bill payer for the device on which you are using the Application, they assume that you have obtained permission from the bill payer.
Similarly, the Service Provider cannot always assume responsibility for your usage of the Application. For instance, it is your responsibility to ensure that your device remains charged. If your device runs out of battery and you are unable to access the Service, the Service Provider cannot be held responsible.
10. Updates to the Application
The Service Provider may wish to update the Application at some point. The Application is currently available as per the requirements for the operating system (and for any additional systems they decide to extend the availability of the Application to). Operating system requirements may change, and you will need to download the updates if you want to continue using the Application. The Service Provider does not guarantee that it will always update the Application so that it is relevant to you and/or compatible with the particular operating system version installed on your device. However, you agree to always accept updates to the Application when offered to you. The Service Provider may also wish to cease providing the Application and may terminate its use at any time without providing termination notice to you. Unless they inform you otherwise, upon any termination, (a) the rights and licenses granted to you in these terms will end; (b) you must cease using the Application, and (if necessary) delete it from your device.
11. Changes to These Terms and Conditions
