Agreement to These Terms
These Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of the HairLab iOS app, provided by Rahul Bhalley (“HairLab,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). By downloading, accessing, or using HairLab, you agree to these Terms and the HairLab Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use HairLab.
If you download HairLab through Apple’s App Store, Apple’s Licensed Application End User License Agreement (“Apple Standard EULA”) also applies unless a custom license is presented through the App Store. These Terms supplement the applicable Apple terms. Mandatory Apple terms and applicable consumer laws control if they conflict with these Terms.
Eligibility
You must be at least 16 years old and legally able to agree to these Terms. If the law where you live requires you to be older, or requires consent from a parent or legal guardian, that higher requirement applies.
HairLab is not directed to children under 16. Do not submit a photo of a person under 16 for cloud processing.
What HairLab Provides
HairLab lets you select or capture a portrait and preview hairstyle or hair-color edits. Some edits use Perfect Corp.’s YouCam cloud service and therefore require an internet connection and an available cloud configuration.
HairLab provides virtual previews for personal, informational, and entertainment purposes. A preview is a simulation. It does not guarantee that a physical haircut, hairstyle, dye, or other treatment will look the same in real life or be suitable or safe for you.
Cloud features, templates, processing speed, and results may vary by device, image, region, network conditions, service availability, and third-party restrictions. Some cloud features may be unavailable in certain builds or locations.
License to Use HairLab
Subject to these Terms and the applicable App Store rules, we grant you a limited, personal, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable, and non-sublicensable license to use HairLab on devices that you own or control for lawful, non-commercial purposes.
Except where applicable law expressly permits it, you may not copy, redistribute, sell, rent, sublicense, reverse engineer, decompile, modify, create derivative works from, or attempt to bypass the security or usage limits of HairLab.
Your Photos and Other Content
Your Responsibilities
You retain any rights you hold in a photo or other content you submit. You represent and warrant that:
- You own the content or have all permissions needed to use and submit it.
- Every identifiable person in the content has authorized the cloud processing described in these Terms and the Privacy Policy.
- Your submission and use of the resulting preview do not violate privacy, publicity, copyright, trademark, contractual, or other rights.
- The content and your intended use comply with applicable law.
Only upload photos of yourself or people who have knowingly authorized you to submit their images. Do not submit confidential material or any photo you are not comfortable having processed in the cloud.
Permission to Process Content
You grant HairLab and the service providers used by HairLab a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, transmit, reproduce, modify, and process your submitted content only as reasonably necessary to provide, secure, troubleshoot, and operate the requested feature, subject to the HairLab Privacy Policy.
Cloud edits are provided through Perfect Corp. Your submission and the generated result may also be governed by Perfect Corp.’s applicable YouCam API Terms and YouCam SaaS Privacy Policy. You should review those documents before using a cloud edit.
Generated Results
As between you and HairLab, HairLab does not claim ownership of a generated result based on your photo. Rights in AI-generated or computer-generated material may vary by jurisdiction, and we do not guarantee that a result is copyrightable, unique, or free from third-party claims.
You are responsible for reviewing a result before saving, sharing, publishing, or relying on it. Do not use a generated result to mislead others, impersonate someone, or falsely represent an actual event, appearance, endorsement, or identity.
Acceptable Use
You may not use HairLab to:
- Break the law or encourage unlawful conduct.
- Submit content without the rights and informed permissions described above.
- Harass, threaten, defame, exploit, sexualize, or harm another person.
- Create deceptive impersonations, fraudulent identity material, or non-consensual manipulated images.
- Perform facial recognition, identity verification, surveillance, biometric profiling, or eligibility decisions.
- Infringe intellectual-property, privacy, publicity, or other rights.
- Submit malware or content intended to disrupt, overload, probe, or compromise HairLab or a third-party service.
- Circumvent daily limits, access controls, rate limits, security controls, or geographic restrictions.
- Scrape, automate, resell, or commercially exploit HairLab or the YouCam service without written authorization.
- Use, share, disclose, or attempt to obtain a YouCam API key without authorization.
We may restrict or discontinue access to HairLab or a cloud feature if we reasonably believe these Terms, third-party requirements, or applicable law have been violated.
Daily Cloud-Edit Allowance
The current version permits up to ten new cloud-edit attempts per device per day. Reusing an available cached result does not consume another attempt.
An attempt is restored when a request fails before the cloud edit task is created. Once the cloud task has been created, the attempt may be counted even if processing later fails, times out, or cannot be downloaded. This allowance:
- Has no cash or monetary value.
- Is not a purchase, stored-value balance, or virtual currency.
- Cannot be transferred, sold, redeemed, or carried forward.
- May be changed, suspended, or removed in a future version.
Membership and Purchases
The current HairLab project may display membership or plan concepts as a design preview. Unless HairLab presents an authorized App Store purchase sheet with a price and purchase terms, those concepts are not an offer for sale and do not create paid benefits, subscription rights, or purchase obligations.
If paid features are introduced later, the price, billing period, renewal terms, cancellation options, and applicable trial terms will be disclosed before purchase. App Store billing, refunds, and payment processing will also be subject to Apple’s applicable terms and your mandatory consumer rights.
Third-Party Services
HairLab relies on third-party platforms and services, including Apple services and Perfect Corp.’s YouCam API. Those services may have separate terms, privacy practices, technical limits, and regional availability.
We do not control and cannot guarantee a third-party service’s availability, accuracy, security, retention, processing time, or continued operation. Third-party changes may require us to modify, suspend, or discontinue a HairLab feature.
Privacy
The HairLab Privacy Policy explains how HairLab handles selected photos, generated results, local app state, permissions, cloud processing, retention, and your choices. By using a cloud feature, you direct HairLab to send the selected image and edit instructions to the cloud providers described in that policy.
Intellectual Property
HairLab and its original software, interface, design, text, graphics, branding, and other materials are owned by us or our licensors and are protected by applicable intellectual-property laws. These Terms do not transfer ownership of HairLab or third-party materials to you.
Third-party names, trademarks, templates, and services remain the property of their respective owners. No license is granted except as necessary to use HairLab in accordance with these Terms.
Availability, Changes, and Termination
HairLab is provided on an “as available” basis. We may update, change, suspend, limit, or discontinue any part of HairLab, including cloud features and usage limits, where reasonably necessary for security, legal compliance, maintenance, service-provider changes, or product development.
You may stop using HairLab at any time by deleting it. Your right to use HairLab ends automatically if you materially violate these Terms. Provisions that by their nature should survive termination—including content responsibilities, intellectual property, disclaimers, liability limits, and dispute provisions—will survive.
No Professional Advice
HairLab does not provide medical, dermatological, cosmetic, legal, or other professional advice. Consult an appropriately qualified professional before making decisions involving hair treatments, chemical products, allergies, scalp conditions, or other health or safety concerns.
Disclaimer of Warranties
To the maximum extent permitted by law, HairLab and its cloud features are provided “as is” and “as available,” with all faults and without warranties of any kind. We do not warrant that HairLab will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, compatible with every device, or that previews will be accurate, unique, available, or fit for a particular purpose.
Nothing in these Terms excludes warranties, guarantees, or other rights that cannot lawfully be excluded under applicable consumer law.
Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, we will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for loss of data, profits, business, goodwill, or opportunity arising from HairLab or a third-party service.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, our total liability for claims relating to HairLab will not exceed the greater of the amount you paid for HairLab during the 12 months before the claim or USD $50. These limitations do not apply to liability that cannot legally be limited or excluded, including any mandatory rights available to consumers.
Responsibility for Claims
You are responsible for losses and third-party claims resulting from your unlawful content, your lack of required permissions, or your intentional misuse of HairLab. To the extent permitted by law, you agree to reimburse us for reasonable losses, liabilities, and legal costs arising directly from those acts. This section does not apply to the extent a claim was caused by our own unlawful conduct.
Apple App Store Terms
For an App Store download:
- These Terms are between you and us, not Apple, and we are responsible for HairLab and its content.
- Apple has no obligation to provide maintenance or support for HairLab.
- We, not Apple, are responsible for addressing product, legal, privacy, consumer-protection, and intellectual-property claims concerning HairLab, subject to applicable law.
- If HairLab fails to conform to an applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple may refund any purchase price as provided by the Apple Standard EULA. Apple has no other warranty obligation to the extent permitted by law.
- You represent that you are not located in a country subject to a United States government embargo and are not listed on a United States government restricted-party list.
- Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and may enforce the Apple-specific provisions against you.
Governing Law and Disputes
Before starting a formal dispute, please contact us and describe the concern so we can try to resolve it informally.
These Terms are governed by the law that applies to the relationship between you and the HairLab provider, without overriding mandatory consumer protections or the governing-law provisions of the applicable Apple terms. Any dispute that cannot be resolved informally may be brought before a court or tribunal with lawful jurisdiction.
Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms to reflect changes to HairLab, its service providers, or applicable requirements. The revised Terms will be posted here with a new Last Updated date. Where required by law, we will provide additional notice or request renewed agreement.
Your continued use of HairLab after revised Terms become effective means you accept them, except where applicable law requires another form of consent. If you do not agree to revised Terms, stop using HairLab.
Severability and No Waiver
If a provision of these Terms is found unenforceable, it will be limited or removed only to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions will continue in effect. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of our right to enforce it later.
Entire Agreement
These Terms, the HairLab Privacy Policy, and any applicable App Store terms form the agreement between you and us concerning HairLab. They replace prior discussions or statements about the same subject, except for terms that cannot legally be replaced.
