Terms of use

The agreement between you and Emit Technologies Ltd for using Shipshape.

Last updated 8 September 2026

Agreement to our legal terms

We are Emit Technologies Ltd ('Company', 'we', 'us', or 'our'), a company registered in Northern Ireland, company number NI725893. Our VAT number is 512002662.

We operate the mobile application Shipshape Health (the 'App'), as well as any other related products and services that refer or link to these legal terms (the 'Legal Terms') (collectively, the 'Services').

Shipshape is a health app which lets you log food, meal, exercise, sleep and goal data to build better habits over time.

You can contact us by email at contact@shpshp.dev.

These Legal Terms constitute a legally binding agreement made between you, whether personally or on behalf of an entity ('you'), and Emit Technologies Ltd, concerning your access to and use of the Services. You agree that by accessing the Services, you have read, understood, and agreed to be bound by all of these Legal Terms. If you do not agree with all of these Legal Terms, then you are expressly prohibited from using the Services and you must discontinue use immediately.

The Services are intended for users who are at least 18 years old. Persons under the age of 18 are not permitted to use or register for the Services.

We recommend that you print or save a copy of these Legal Terms for your records.

1. Our services

The information provided when using the Services is not intended for distribution to or use by any person or entity in any jurisdiction or country where such distribution or use would be contrary to law or regulation or which would subject us to any registration requirement within such jurisdiction or country. Accordingly, those persons who choose to access the Services from other locations do so on their own initiative and are solely responsible for compliance with local laws, if and to the extent local laws are applicable.

The Services are not tailored to comply with industry-specific regulations. If your interactions would be subject to such laws, you may not use the Services.

2. Not medical advice

Shipshape is a tracking tool, not a medical device. Nutritional values, micronutrient estimates, scores and sleep analysis are estimates for general wellbeing and must not be used to diagnose, treat, prevent or manage any medical condition.

Nothing in the Services is medical, dietary or clinical advice, and nothing in the Services is a measurement of you. Talk to a qualified professional before changing your diet, exercise or sleep on the basis of anything the app shows you, and never disregard or delay seeking professional advice because of something you have read in the app.

If you are pregnant, have a diagnosed medical condition, an eating disorder or a history of disordered eating, or are taking medication, speak to a healthcare professional before using the Services to set or pursue any dietary target.

3. Accuracy of food and health data

Food data shown in the Services is drawn from public food composition databases, third-party barcode data, and artificial intelligence estimation from your text descriptions and photographs. It will sometimes be wrong. Portion sizes in particular are estimated and can vary substantially from what you actually ate. Sleep and exercise data is only as accurate as the device recording it.

Allergens and intolerances. Shipshape must not be relied on to avoid allergens. Ingredient, additive and intolerance information is estimated or drawn from third-party sources, is frequently incomplete, and may not reflect reformulation, precautionary 'may contain' labelling, or cross-contamination. The absence of an ingredient in the app is not a statement that the food does not contain it. If you have a serious allergy, always read the manufacturer's label on the product itself.

Medical conditions. Shipshape must not be relied on to manage any condition where an inaccurate figure could cause you harm, including but not limited to diabetes, coeliac disease, phenylketonuria, kidney disease or any condition requiring a controlled intake of a specific nutrient.

The Services are provided as-is, without warranty that any figure is exact.

4. Intellectual property rights

Our intellectual property

We are the owner or the licensee of all intellectual property rights in our Services, including all source code, databases, functionality, software, website designs, audio, video, text, photographs, and graphics in the Services (collectively, the 'Content'), as well as the trademarks, service marks, and logos contained therein (the 'Marks').

Our Content and Marks are protected by copyright and trademark laws (and various other intellectual property rights and unfair competition laws) and treaties around the world.

The Content and Marks are provided in or through the Services 'as is' for your personal, non-commercial use only.

If we grant you permission to post, reproduce, or publicly display any part of our Services or Content, you must identify us as the owners or licensors and ensure that any copyright or proprietary notice is visible.

These Legal Terms shall remain in full force and effect while you use the Services. Without limiting any other provision of these Legal Terms, we reserve the right to, in our sole discretion and without notice or liability, deny access to and use of the Services to any person for any reason, including for breach of any representation, warranty, or covenant contained in these Legal Terms or of any applicable law or regulation.

16. Modifications and interruptions

We reserve the right to change, modify, or remove the contents of the Services at any time or for any reason at our sole discretion without notice. We have no obligation to update any information on our Services.

We cannot guarantee the Services will be available at all times. We may experience hardware, software, or other problems or need to perform maintenance related to the Services, resulting in interruptions, delays, or errors.

These Legal Terms may change. Material changes will be announced in the app or by email.

Reminders. Reminders are scheduled and shown by your own device, and we cannot guarantee that any reminder will appear. A reminder may be delayed or missed if your device is switched off, out of battery, in a focus or do-not-disturb mode, if notifications for Shipshape are turned off, or if your operating system delays or withholds it. Reminders are a prompt to help you build a habit and must not be relied on for anything where a missed prompt would matter — in particular, do not use them to remind you to take medication or to manage any medical condition.

17. Governing law

These Legal Terms are governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of Northern Ireland, and the use of the United Nations Convention of Contracts for the International Sales of Goods is expressly excluded. Emit Technologies Ltd and yourself both agree to submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Northern Ireland.

If you are a consumer, you additionally possess the protection provided to you by mandatory provisions of the law of your country of residence, and you may bring proceedings to enforce your consumer protection rights in the country in which you reside.

18. Dispute resolution

If you have a complaint, please contact us at contact@shpshp.dev in the first instance and we will try to resolve it with you directly.

20. Disclaimer

The Services are provided on an as-is and as-available basis. You agree that your use of the Services will be at your sole risk.

We do not warrant, endorse, guarantee, or assume responsibility for any product or service advertised or offered by a third party through the Services or any hyperlinked website, and we will not be a party to or in any way be responsible for monitoring any transaction between you and any third-party providers of products or services.

This section is subject to the section 'Liability we do not exclude' below.

21. Limitations of liability

Liability we do not exclude

Nothing in these Legal Terms limits or excludes our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, for any breach of the terms implied by section 12 of the Sale of Goods Act 1979, or for any other liability which cannot lawfully be limited or excluded. Nothing in these Legal Terms affects your statutory rights as a consumer. Where any provision of these Legal Terms purports to exclude or limit such liability, it does not apply.

Other liability

Subject to the paragraph above, in no event will we or our directors, employees, or agents be liable to you or any third party for any indirect, consequential, exemplary, incidental, special, or punitive damages, including lost profit, lost revenue, loss of data, or other damages arising from your use of the Services, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.

Subject to the paragraph above, our total liability to you for any cause whatsoever and regardless of the form of the action will at all times be limited to the amount paid, if any, by you to us during the six (6) month period prior to any cause of action arising.

Some laws do not allow limitations on implied warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain damages. If these laws apply to you, some or all of the above disclaimers or limitations may not apply to you, and you may have additional rights.

22. Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold us harmless, including our subsidiaries, affiliates, and all of our respective officers, agents, partners, and employees, from and against any loss, damage, liability, claim, or demand, including reasonable legal fees and expenses, made by any third party due to or arising out of: (1) your Contributions; (2) your use of the Services; (3) your breach of these Legal Terms; (4) any breach of your representations and warranties set forth in these Legal Terms; (5) your violation of the rights of a third party, including intellectual property rights; or (6) any overt harmful act toward any other user of the Services. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we reserve the right, at your expense, to assume the exclusive defence and control of any matter for which you are required to indemnify us, and you agree to cooperate with our defence of such claims. We will use reasonable efforts to notify you of any such claim upon becoming aware of it.

This section does not apply where you are acting as a consumer, to the extent that applying it would be inconsistent with your statutory rights.

23. User data

We will maintain certain data that you transmit to the Services for the purpose of managing the performance of the Services, as well as data relating to your use of the Services. Although we perform regular routine backups of data, you are responsible for all data that you transmit or that relates to any activity you have undertaken using the Services. Subject to the section 'Liability we do not exclude' and to your rights under data protection law, we shall have no liability to you for any loss or corruption of any such data.

24. Electronic communications, transactions, and signatures

Visiting the Services, sending us emails, and completing online forms constitute electronic communications. You consent to receive electronic communications, and you agree that all agreements, notices, disclosures, and other communications we provide to you electronically, via email and on the Services, satisfy any legal requirement that such communication be in writing. You agree to the use of electronic signatures, contracts, orders, and other records, and to electronic delivery of notices, policies, and records of transactions initiated or completed by us or via the Services.

25. Miscellaneous

These Legal Terms and any policies or operating rules posted by us on the Services constitute the entire agreement and understanding between you and us. Our failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Legal Terms shall not operate as a waiver of such right or provision. These Legal Terms operate to the fullest extent permissible by law. We may assign any or all of our rights and obligations to others at any time. We shall not be responsible or liable for any loss, damage, delay, or failure to act caused by any cause beyond our reasonable control. If any provision or part of a provision of these Legal Terms is determined to be unlawful, void, or unenforceable, that provision or part of the provision is deemed severable and does not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions. There is no joint venture, partnership, employment or agency relationship created between you and us as a result of these Legal Terms or use of the Services.
