Terms of Service

Last updated: July 17, 2026

These Terms of Service ("Terms") are an agreement between you and 854 Labs LLC, an Indiana limited liability company ("854 Labs," "we," "us," or "our"). Lean & Steady is operated by 854 Labs LLC. These Terms govern your use of leansteady.com and the Lean & Steady iPhone app (together, the "Service").

Please read these Terms carefully. By creating an account, starting a trial, purchasing a subscription, or otherwise using the Service, you agree to these Terms and our Privacy Policy.

1. Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years old and located in the United States to create an account or use the Service. By using the Service, you represent that you meet these requirements and can enter into this agreement. We do not knowingly permit anyone under 18 to use the Service.

2. The Service Is for General Wellness, Not Medical Care

Lean & Steady helps you record food, weight, steps, workouts, and related information; view meal and nutrition estimates; and review a personal plan. It is not medical advice, medical diagnosis, medical treatment, emergency care, or a substitute for a qualified healthcare professional.

Do not use the Service to make urgent health decisions. Seek advice from a qualified professional before making changes that could affect your health, especially if you are pregnant, have an eating disorder, a medical condition, or take medication. Food and nutrition estimates, including estimates generated from photos, can be inaccurate and should not be treated as medical, dietary, or clinical guidance.

3. Your Account

You may create an account using email one-time-passcode authentication or Sign in with Apple. You must provide accurate account information, keep access to your email address or Apple account secure, and promptly notify us of suspected unauthorized access. You are responsible for activity under your account to the extent permitted by law.

4. Optional Features and Your Content

You retain ownership of the information and content you submit to the Service, including your meals, records, notes, and photos ("Your Content"). You grant 854 Labs a limited, non-exclusive, worldwide license to host, store, reproduce, process, and display Your Content only as needed to provide, secure, maintain, and improve the Service, comply with law, and enforce these Terms.

If you submit a food photo or nutrition-label photo for meal analysis, you direct us to send that photo to OpenAI to generate a meal or nutrition estimate. Private progress and check-in photos are not sent to OpenAI and are not used for facial analysis, attractiveness ratings, automated body scoring, or AI analysis.

You are responsible for having the rights and permissions needed to submit Your Content. Do not submit content that is unlawful, infringes another person's rights, contains malware, or violates these Terms.

5. HealthKit

HealthKit access is optional. If you allow it, Lean & Steady reads step-count data only. We do not request calories burned, workouts, weight, body measurements, sleep, or heart-rate data from HealthKit. You can revoke HealthKit permission in your iPhone settings.

6. Acceptable Use

You may not:

  • use the Service for unlawful, fraudulent, abusive, or harmful activity;
  • interfere with, disrupt, probe, or circumvent the Service or its security controls;
  • access another person's account or information without authorization;
  • copy, modify, distribute, sell, lease, reverse engineer, or create derivative works from the Service except where law prevents this restriction;
  • use automated means to scrape or access the Service except through authorized interfaces;
  • submit content that violates law or another person's rights; or
  • use the Service as a substitute for professional medical advice or emergency services.

7. Subscriptions, Trials, and Billing

Lean & Steady subscriptions are available on iOS through Apple's App Store only. At launch, the available plans are:

  • $12.99 per month; and
  • $41.99 per year.

The annual option may be shown as the default selection. Eligible users may receive a three-day introductory free trial, as determined by Apple. We do not control trial eligibility.

Your subscription automatically renews unless you cancel it through your Apple account settings before the next billing period. Apple controls billing, payment processing, taxes, renewals, cancellations, and the exact terms displayed at purchase. We may send service reminders about a trial ending approximately one day and one hour before its expiration.

We do not offer a separate money-back guarantee. Refund requests must be submitted to Apple, and Apple decides whether to issue a refund. Pricing or subscription terms may change in the future; any change will be presented through Apple and take effect as required by applicable law and Apple's rules.

8. Service Availability and Changes

We may update, modify, suspend, or discontinue parts of the Service to maintain, improve, secure, or comply with law. We do not promise that the Service will always be available, uninterrupted, error-free, or compatible with every device. We will use reasonable efforts to give advance notice of a material discontinuation when practical.

9. Intellectual Property

The Service, including its software, design, text, logos, and other materials provided by 854 Labs, is owned by 854 Labs or its licensors and protected by applicable intellectual-property laws. Subject to these Terms, we grant you a limited, personal, non-transferable, revocable license to use the Service for its intended purpose.

If you give us feedback, ideas, or suggestions, you grant us the right to use them without restriction or compensation, but we will not identify you publicly without your permission.

10. Privacy

Our Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, retain, and share information. It is part of these Terms.

11. Account Deletion and Termination

You can delete your account using the in-app account-deletion control. Deleting the app does not delete your account. When an account is deleted, we remove the account and user-owned information from active systems promptly; limited residual copies may remain in backups and operational or security logs for up to 30 days, as described in the Privacy Policy.

We may suspend or terminate your access if you violate these Terms, create risk or legal exposure for us or others, or if we are required to do so by law. Sections that by their nature should survive termination will survive, including intellectual-property, disclaimer, liability, indemnity, dispute, and general provisions.

12. Disclaimers

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE." 854 LABS DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ACCURACY, AND AVAILABILITY.

Nothing in these Terms excludes a warranty, right, or remedy that cannot legally be excluded or limited.

13. Limitation of Liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, 854 LABS AND ITS MEMBERS, MANAGERS, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS, AND SERVICE PROVIDERS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST PROFITS, DATA, GOODWILL, OR BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY, ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THE SERVICE OR THESE TERMS.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, 854 LABS' TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THE SERVICE OR THESE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT YOU PAID TO 854 LABS FOR THE SERVICE IN THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM. THIS LIMIT DOES NOT APPLY WHERE APPLICABLE LAW DOES NOT ALLOW IT.

14. Indemnification

To the fullest extent permitted by law, you will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless 854 Labs and its members, managers, employees, contractors, and service providers from claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from Your Content, your misuse of the Service, or your violation of these Terms or applicable law.

15. Governing Law and Courts

These Terms are governed by Indiana law, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute arising out of or relating to the Service or these Terms must be brought exclusively in the appropriate Indiana state courts located in Hendricks County, Indiana, or the United States District Court for the Southern District of Indiana when federal jurisdiction applies. You and 854 Labs consent to the jurisdiction and venue of those courts.

Nothing in this section limits any consumer-protection right or remedy that cannot legally be waived or restricted. These Terms do not require arbitration and do not include a class-action waiver.

16. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms to reflect changes to the Service, law, or our practices. If a change is material, we will provide notice through the Service, by email, or by another reasonable method before it takes effect when required by law. If you continue using the Service after the effective date of updated Terms, you accept the updated Terms to the extent permitted by law. If you do not agree, you must stop using the Service and may delete your account.

17. General

These Terms and the Privacy Policy are the entire agreement between you and 854 Labs about the Service. If a provision is unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in effect. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. You may not assign these Terms without our consent. We may assign these Terms in connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganization, or sale of assets.
