Terms of Use

Effective date: 10 July 2026 · App: Protocol — Supplement Stack (iOS) · Contact: [email protected]

These terms are an agreement between you and Javon Taffe, an independent software developer based in the United Kingdom ("we", "us"), covering your use of the Protocol app. By downloading or using Protocol, you agree to them.

1. Protocol is not medical advice

Please read this section carefully — it matters more than the rest.

Protocol is a tracking and organisation tool. It helps you record the supplements you have chosen to take, when you take them, and how much you have left.

Always consult a doctor, pharmacist, or other qualified health professional before starting, stopping, or changing any supplement — especially if you take medication, have a health condition, or are pregnant or breastfeeding. Never disregard professional medical advice because of something shown in Protocol.

2. Licence

We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to use Protocol on Apple devices that you own or control, in line with Apple's App Store terms. You may not copy, modify, distribute, sell, reverse-engineer, or misrepresent the app or its content, except where the law permits.

3. Protocol Pro (in-app purchase)

4. Your data

Protocol stores your data on your device only, as described in our Privacy Policy. Because there is no account or cloud sync, you are responsible for your own data: deleting the app deletes your data, and we cannot recover it. Your device's standard iCloud/device backup is the way to preserve it.

5. Acceptable use

You agree to use Protocol only for lawful, personal purposes and not to attempt to interfere with, exploit, or misuse the app or any connected service (such as the barcode lookup service).

6. No warranty

Protocol is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy of content, or uninterrupted operation. Supplement and interaction information may be incomplete, out of date, or inapplicable to you. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we exclude all implied warranties.

7. Limitation of liability

Nothing in these terms excludes or limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud, or anything else that cannot be excluded under the law of England and Wales.

Subject to that, we are not liable for: (a) any loss or damage arising from your reliance on information displayed in the app; (b) health outcomes connected to your supplement choices; (c) loss of data; or (d) any indirect or consequential loss. Our total liability to you for all claims connected with the app is limited to the amount you paid us for the app in the 12 months before the claim arose (i.e. at most the price of Protocol Pro).

8. Apple

These terms are between you and us, not Apple. Apple has no obligation to provide support or maintenance for Protocol and is not responsible for addressing any claims relating to it. Apple is a third-party beneficiary of these terms and may enforce them against you.

9. Changes and termination

We may update these terms from time to time; the current version will always be at protocolapp.app/terms with its effective date. Continuing to use the app after a change means you accept the updated terms. We may withdraw the app or discontinue features where we have good reason, subject to section 3 (paid features are not taken away from paying users while the app remains available).

10. Governing law

These terms, and any dispute arising from them or from your use of Protocol, are governed by the law of England and Wales, and the courts of England and Wales have exclusive jurisdiction — except that if you live in Scotland or Northern Ireland you may also bring proceedings in your local courts, and nothing in these terms affects your statutory consumer rights.
