Other information you should know about this app:

License: You may use this application for the purpose described above on a mobile device that you own or control. This license is non-transferable and is only between you and Philips.

Third Parties: It is possible that when using this application you will (also) use a service, download software or purchase goods provided by a third party. Please note that these third parties may have their own rules and restrictions that are different from these Terms of Use. Philips is not responsible for these third parties.

Warranty: Our goal is to provide you with a great app and a great user experience. Please note that we can only provide the app to you in the condition it is in. Although we would like to, we unfortunately cannot guarantee the app or its content.

Liability: Although we trust our application, there is always a possibility that things will not work as they should.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, we regretfully cannot assume any liability for damages resulting from the use of the application. In no event will we be liable for amounts exceeding the fees paid for the purchase of the application.

Health and Nutrition Content: All health and nutrition content is for informational purposes only. It is not a substitute for medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment from your doctor or healthcare professional.

A varied and balanced diet is an important part of a healthy lifestyle. A balanced diet should contain the right amounts of the right foods, including carbohydrates, fiber, water, protein, fat, vitamins and minerals. Each person’s nutritional needs are unique. Philips is not responsible for any adverse reactions, effects or consequences resulting from the use of any recipes or suggestions provided here or below. We take care to ensure that the nutritional information we provide is based on reliable scientific sources. However, Philips is not responsible for any errors or omissions in the reports or explanations.

Special Diets: Recipes can be filtered by dietary restrictions, such as gluten-free, dairy-free, vegan, etc. However, there is the possibility of industry and regional differences and we have no control over the ingredients used in your recipes. We recommend always checking food labels, especially if you have food allergies or intolerances.

Nutritional value calculation: The app can calculate the nutritional values ​​of recipes. These nutritional values ​​are based on average values ​​reported in food composition databases. Philips uses the USDA food composition database for the United States and Canada and the German food composition database “BLS - Bundes Lebensmittel Schlüssel” for all other countries. The calculated nutritional values ​​may deviate from the actual nutritional values ​​due to, among other things, differences in the nutritional values ​​of the ingredients (due to degree of ripeness, variety, etc.).

Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA): The RDA represents the daily intake that meets the nutrient requirements of nearly all (97.5%) apparently healthy individuals in a population group by age and sex. The values ​​we use for the RDA are implemented by the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) for the United States and Canada, the Ministry of Health of the People's Republic of China for China, the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Indonesia for Indonesia, and the European Commission for all other countries.

Nutrition and health claims: The nutrition and health claims made in the application are based on European Commission Regulation 1924/2006. Regarding the recommended daily intake, the application is governed by EU Regulation 1169/2011.
