Last updated: March 2025

Welcome to ePlant. By accessing or using our website (eplantai.com), plant identifier, insect identifier, encyclopedia, blog, plant care app, or any related services (the "Services"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Use. If you do not agree, please do not use our Services.

Use of the Services

You may use our Services for personal, non-commercial purposes in accordance with these terms. You may use the plant and insect identification features, browse the encyclopedia and blog, and access care guides. You must not use the Services in any way that is illegal, harmful, or that could damage or overburden our systems or other users.

Content and Accuracy

Our identification results, care tips, and encyclopedia content are for general information only. They are not a substitute for professional botanical, medical, or safety advice. Always verify plant identity (e.g. for edibility or toxicity) through authoritative sources before relying on it. We do not guarantee the accuracy or completeness of any content.

Safety and Responsibility

You are responsible for your use of the information we provide. Do not ingest or use plants based solely on our identification or descriptions. For toxicity, allergies, or medical questions, consult qualified professionals. We are not liable for any harm resulting from your reliance on our Services.

Intellectual Property

The ePlant name, logo, design, and original content are owned by us or our licensors. You may not copy, modify, or distribute our content or branding without permission. Plant and insect images and data may be sourced from third parties and are subject to their respective licenses; we do not claim ownership of those underlying assets.

User Content

If you upload photos or submit content through our Services, you grant us a license to use, process, and display that content as needed to provide and improve the Services (e.g. to run identification). You represent that you have the right to share such content and that it does not violate any third-party rights.

Disclaimers and Limitation of Liability

The Services are provided "as is". We disclaim all warranties, express or implied, to the fullest extent permitted by law. We are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising from your use of the Services. Our total liability shall not exceed the amount you paid to us, if any, in the twelve months before the claim.

Changes to the Terms

We may update these Terms of Use from time to time. We will post the updated terms on this page and update the "Last updated" date. Your continued use of the Services after changes constitutes acceptance of the new terms.
