Terms of Use
Version 1 · Effective date: 11 October 2026
These terms cover your use of Pardine, the app for noting where each thing you eat comes from, at pardine.app and in the iPhone, iPad and Mac apps. How we handle your data is in the Privacy Policy.
1. Who we are
Pardine is made and run by Paral LLC, registered at 30 N Gould St, Sheridan, Wyoming 82801, USA. In these terms, “we” and “us” mean Paral LLC, and “you” means the person using Pardine. Write to us at support@pardine.app.
2. What Pardine is
Pardine works without an account. Without one, what you log stays on your device and these terms ask very little of you. An account is for the optional parts: sync between your devices, and friends. The rest of these terms matter most when you have an account.
If you are under 13, please do not create an account.
3. Your records are yours
You own what you log: your entries, your saved places and your list of things to eat. We claim no ownership of it, we do not sell it, and we do not use it to train anything.
If you sign in, you give us permission to do what running the service takes, and no more: to store your records, to sync them between your own devices, to show your friends what you have chosen to share with them (see the Privacy Policy, section 5), and to hide something if it is reported and breaks these terms. That permission ends when you delete a record or close your account, apart from the 30 days the Privacy Policy describes for records you delete.
4. Your account
You sign in to a Paral account, the same account that Parote and Paral News use, with a code sent to your email. Keep the account to yourself and tell us if you think someone else has got into it. Sync and friends are not offered to people who live in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland, and making an account means you confirm that you do not live there. Pardine itself works everywhere without an account.
5. Friends
Friends is optional. It is off until you turn it on, and turning it on means you agree to these terms. A friend is someone who accepted an invitation from you, or whose invitation you accepted. You decide whom to invite; send an invitation only to people you know, and not to the public. What your friends can see, and what they never can, is listed in the Privacy Policy, section 5. You can unfriend, block, pause sharing or hide a single entry whenever you like, without telling anyone.
6. What is not allowed
Anything that other people can see, or that we have to look at in order to run the service, has to follow these rules. That includes your name, your profile picture, the names of dishes and ingredients, the names of places and anything else you write that a friend can see. Do not use Pardine to:
- harass, threaten or demean anyone, or say hateful things about people because of who they are;
- post sexual or violent material, or anything else that is unlawful;
- pretend to be someone else, or use someone else’s name or picture;
- share another person’s private information;
- send invitations as spam, or attack, overload or probe the service or the people using it.
7. Reporting, blocking and what we do
You can unfriend or block anyone yourself, silently. To report a friend’s name or picture, or one of their entries, use the menu on their page or on the entry, or write to support@pardine.app. The Privacy Policy, section 5, says what a report contains. We aim to deal with every report within 24 hours.
We may hide a name, a picture or an entry (a short list of words is also checked automatically, and anything that matches is hidden), turn friends off for an account, or suspend or close an account that breaks these terms in a serious or repeated way. Where we can, we tell you what happened, and you can export your records first (Settings, Data, Export). We do not read your private records looking for breaches.
8. Tips
In the iPhone, iPad and Mac apps you can leave a tip. It is optional, it unlocks nothing and changes nothing about what Pardine does. Apple takes the payment under its own terms, and any refund request goes to Apple. Pardine on the web takes no payments.
9. What we promise, and what we do not
We provide Pardine with reasonable care. We do not promise that it is always available or has no defects. Records that live only on your device are not copied anywhere, so we cannot restore them if the device is lost; exporting now and then is the safest habit.
Nothing in these terms excludes or limits our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for fraud, or for anything else the law does not allow to be excluded or limited. Where liability can be limited, ours is limited to the amount you paid Paral LLC for Pardine in the twelve months before the claim. If you are a consumer, your statutory rights stand in full, including the mandatory consumer protections of the country where you live.
10. Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Wyoming, United States, without regard to its conflict of laws rules, and the courts of that state have non-exclusive jurisdiction. If you are a consumer, this does not take away the protection of any mandatory law of the country where you live, and you can bring proceedings in your local courts.
11. Changes
When these terms change in a way that matters, we change the version number and the effective date above, and Pardine asks you to agree again before you carry on using friends. When only the wording changes, the page changes with it.
