Health & Allergens Warning

Mandatory document — Read before use

⚠️ Important Warning — Read carefully before using YumiScan

YumiScan uses automated OCR (Optical Character Recognition) technologies and probabilistic artificial intelligence. These technologies, however advanced, do not guarantee exact, complete, or exhaustive results.

Known technical limitations

  • The analysis depends on the quality of the image provided: a blurry, poorly framed, or poorly lit photo can lead to erroneous results.
  • Certain ingredients may be omitted, poorly detected, or misinterpreted by algorithms, particularly when written in a foreign language, abbreviated, or in code form.
  • Allergens present as traces, derivatives, or scientific names may not be identified.
  • Artificial intelligence can produce false negatives (allergens present but not reported) or false positives (allergens reported but absent).
  • No analysis is 100% guaranteed, regardless of the conditions.

Severe or potentially life-threatening allergies

❗ If you suffer from a severe allergy, anaphylaxis, or any food intolerance requiring absolute vigilance:

  • Never rely solely on YumiScan to decide whether to consume a product.
  • Always read the original product packaging and check the complete list of ingredients.
  • If in doubt, refrain from consuming the product and consult a healthcare professional.
  • The Application is not a medical device and is not certified as such.

By using YumiScan, you acknowledge and agree that:
