Terms of Service
1. Who we are
Brunt (the “service”) is operated by Jean-Sébastien Lefèvre, a registered French sole proprietorship (entrepreneur individuel, SIREN 534 599 121 — see the Legal notice). The terms below form a contract between you and us when you create an account.
2. The service
Brunt helps families plan meals: it generates weekly menus, builds grocery lists, tracks light physical activity, and provides indicative energy estimates based on the profile data you enter. It is a software service delivered through a web app at app.brunt.care.
3. Not a medical device
Brunt is a planning tool, not a medical device. It does not perform any diagnosis, does not prescribe any treatment, and does not replace the advice of a doctor, a registered dietitian, a coach, or any other healthcare professional. Energy estimates are computed from a standard formula (Mifflin-St Jeor) using the values you provide, and may diverge materially from your actual needs. If a meal plan contradicts a medical or therapeutic recommendation you have received, follow the medical recommendation.
4. Eligibility & account
- You must be at least 16 years old to create a Brunt account on your own behalf.
- You are responsible for keeping your password confidential and for activity under your account.
- Brunt may refuse, suspend or terminate an account that abuses the service or breaks these terms.
5. Plans, subscription & billing
Brunt is offered under a freemium model:
- Free plan — core features with usage limits (e.g. a capped number of menu generations per week), free of charge, no card required.
- Premium plan — a monthly subscription that lifts those limits. The current price and plan contents are published on the pricing page before any checkout.
Payments are processed by our reseller and Merchant of Record, Lemon Squeezy, LLC, which handles checkout, payment collection, applicable taxes and invoicing. Your card details never transit through our servers. The subscription renews automatically each month; you can cancel at any time from the customer portal, in which case Premium remains active until the end of the paid period and is not renewed.
Right of withdrawal (EU consumers). By activating the subscription you request immediate access to the service. In accordance with Articles L.221-18 and L.221-28 of the French Consumer Code, you may exercise your 14-day right of withdrawal by contacting hello@brunt.care; once you have expressly consented to immediate performance and acknowledged that you thereby waive the right of withdrawal for the service already supplied, refunds are limited accordingly.
Consumer mediation. In accordance with Articles L.612-1 et seq. of the French Consumer Code, unresolved disputes may be referred free of charge to a consumer mediator. The mediator will be designated no later than the opening of the paid offering, and their details will then be published in these terms; in the meantime, write to hello@brunt.care.
Referral programme. Brunt may grant complimentary Premium time (e.g. one month per referred user who actually activates the service). These grants have no monetary value, cannot be exchanged or refunded, may be capped to prevent abuse, and the programme may be amended or discontinued at any time without affecting time already granted.
Price changes are announced at least 30 days in advance by e-mail and never apply retroactively to an ongoing billing period. Accounts created during the private beta (founder accounts) keep unlimited free access; subscribing is always opt-in.
6. Your content
The family profile data, pantry items, menus and activity logs you put into Brunt remain yours. You grant us a limited licence to host, copy and process this content only to operate the service for you (including sending the necessary portions to our LLM sub-processor to generate the plans you request). We do not use your content to train external models and we do not sell it.
7. Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- Reverse engineer the service, scrape it at scale, or bypass authentication.
- Use the service for content that is illegal, harassing, hateful, or that promotes self-harm.
- Resell, sublicense or wrap the API without a written agreement.
- Submit personal data about third parties (other than the family members of your household) without their informed consent.
8. Service availability
Brunt is provided on a best-effort basis. We aim for high availability but do not commit to a specific uptime target on the free plan. Paid plans get e-mail support and priority during incidents. Planned maintenance is communicated on the application when feasible.
9. Beta features
Some features may be marked “beta”. They are provided as-is, may change without notice, and may be discontinued. Your feedback on beta features is welcome at hello@brunt.care.
10. Termination
You may delete your account at any time from the application. We may suspend or close accounts that materially breach these terms, after notice when feasible. Upon closure, your personal data is deleted in accordance with our Privacy Policy.
11. Disclaimer of warranties
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Brunt is provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind. We do not guarantee that the service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that the meal suggestions will meet any specific nutritional, medical, or culinary objective.
12. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, our aggregate liability arising out of or related to the service is limited to the amounts you paid us in the twelve (12) months preceding the event giving rise to the claim, or one hundred euros (€100), whichever is greater. Nothing in these terms excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded (e.g. for gross negligence or fraud).
13. Changes to these terms
We may update these terms as the service evolves. Material changes are announced by e-mail or by a banner in the application at least 30 days before they take effect. Continued use of the service after a change means you accept the revised terms.
14. Governing law & jurisdiction
These terms are governed by French law. Any dispute will be brought before the competent French courts, except where mandatory consumer-law rules give you the right to seize the court of your habitual residence.
