Pre-launch legal structure
Clear terms. No surprises.
This page is an MVP legal-content structure, not final legal advice. The flagged fields must be completed and reviewed before scaling paid ads.
Legal review required: the provider identity and contact details are inserted. Counsel must still approve governing law, liability and dispute wording, tax treatment, processor list, retention periods, refund terms, and any state-specific clauses.
Subscription disclosure
What you pay and when
Current MVP sequence
- Today: the 7-day MealBloom starter plan is free and no payment card is required.
- No automatic charge: signing up for the free starter plan does not start a subscription and cannot automatically charge the user.
- Optional subscription: after the free plan is delivered, a $4.99/month subscription may be offered separately by email or checkout page only with clear pricing, renewal frequency, cancellation terms, and customer consent before payment.
- Access and support: access instructions and support are provided by email. If access does not arrive, contact info@ibfoodtech.com.
- Refunds: if a paid subscription is later purchased, refund handling will follow the displayed policy and mandatory law.
Legal review required: confirm US consumer-law wording, refund wording, charge descriptor, taxes, email consent, renewal disclosures, cancellation flow, and whether any state-specific notices apply before scaling ad spend.
Terms of service structure
Terms
1. Provider and eligibility
MealBloom is a trading brand. The service is provided by SIA “EDINGOLD Baltic”, registration No. 40203421744, Tīnūžu šoseja 17, Ikšķile, Ogres Municipality, LV-5052, Latvia, contact info@ibfoodtech.com. Users must be at least 18 and able to enter a binding contract.
2. Service
MealBloom provides digital meal plans, recipes, grocery lists, approximate calorie information, and general educational content. It does not deliver groceries or prepared meals and does not guarantee store prices, product availability, nutrition totals, savings, or individual health outcomes.
3. Food, allergy, and health responsibility
The content is general information, not medical care or individualized nutrition advice. Approximate calories are estimates only. Users must review labels, ingredient suitability, allergens, religious or dietary requirements, recalls, food-safety instructions, and cooking temperatures. In an emergency or for medical needs, consult an appropriate licensed professional.
4. Billing, access, refunds
The current MVP starter plan is free and does not require a payment card. A paid $4.99/month subscription may be offered separately later. A user is charged only if they actively choose the paid subscription through a checkout flow that displays the price, renewal frequency, and cancellation terms before payment. Refund handling will follow the displayed policy and mandatory law.
5. Feedback and complaints
Feedback may be sent to info@ibfoodtech.com. A formal complaint may be submitted through the clearly labeled complaint link available on every page. We aim to respond to a written complaint within 15 business days; mandatory legal deadlines apply where different.
6. Intellectual property and personal use
Plans are licensed for the recipient household’s personal, non-commercial use. They may not be resold, republished, scraped, or used to train another product without written permission.
7. Availability and changes
Content and features may change, but a material price or renewal-term change will be communicated in advance and handled as required by law.
8. Liability, governing law, disputes
[COUNSEL-DRAFTED LIABILITY CAP, GOVERNING LAW, VENUE, CONSUMER RIGHTS, AND DISPUTE LANGUAGE]
Legal review required: the provider is based in Latvia/EU but sells to US consumers. Counsel should address mandatory US consumer law, Latvian/EU establishment obligations, jurisdiction, taxes, complaint handling, and enforceability rather than relying on a generic US template.
Privacy notice
Privacy
Controller and contact
SIA “EDINGOLD Baltic”, registration No. 40203421744, Tīnūžu šoseja 17, Ikšķile, Ogres Municipality, LV-5052, Latvia, is the controller for website, starter-plan delivery, support, subscription offers, and marketing data. Privacy contact: info@ibfoodtech.com.
Data collected
- Email address, consent record, and source/campaign parameters for the free starter plan.
- If a paid subscription is later purchased: checkout status, transaction identifiers, and limited billing metadata from Stripe; MealBloom does not store full card details.
- Delivery, support, complaint, unsubscribe, suppression, and message-engagement records.
- With analytics permission: Meta Pixel events, device/browser data, IP-derived coarse location, and cookie choices.
Purposes and legal bases
We use the email address and recorded consent to send the requested plan immediately and optional MealBloom subscription offers on days 5 and 6. Unsubscribing cancels future scheduled offer emails. If you later choose the paid plan, payment information is processed to provide the subscription and meet legal and accounting duties.
Service providers and transfers
Cloudflare/OpenAI Sites provides hosting and database services; Resend provides email delivery; Stripe provides checkout and subscription payment processing; and Meta provides optional advertising measurement only after analytics permission. These providers may process data outside your country under their applicable contractual and transfer safeguards.
Retention and rights
Lead and consent records are retained only as needed to deliver the sequence, document consent and respect suppression requests. Customer and accounting records may be retained for legally required periods. You may request access, correction, deletion, restriction, portability, objection, or withdrawal of consent by emailing info@ibfoodtech.com. You may also complain to the competent data-protection authority.
Cookies and analytics
Necessary website functions operate without advertising consent. Meta Pixel loads only after you select “Allow analytics.” Selecting “Necessary only” leaves Meta tracking disabled on that browser.
Legal review required before scaling: counsel should confirm US state privacy notices and opt-outs, GDPR transfer documentation, retention periods, children’s privacy, and any tax or consumer-law duties triggered by sales volume or target states.
AI transparency
Responsible use of AI
MealBloom may use AI tools to assist with recipe ideation, editing, layout, and operations. Subscriber-facing meal plans are human-reviewed before publication. AI output must not be treated as an authoritative allergen, nutrition, medical, price, or food-safety determination.
For this MVP, users do not directly interact with a chatbot and the service does not make high-risk automated decisions. A concise transparency statement is still included as a trust measure.
Legal review required: reassess EU AI Act Article 50 and other duties if a chatbot, synthetic people/voices, personalized health recommendations, automated nutrition claims, or public-interest AI text is later added.
