Terms & Conditions
Beauty Health Index (BHI) · Last updated: September 15, 2026
1. Acceptance of Terms
These Terms and Conditions ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the Beauty Health Index mobile application, website, and related services (collectively, the "Services"), operated by Beauty Health Index ("BHI", "we", "us", "our").
By creating an account, accessing, or using the Services, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be legally bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated by reference. If you do not agree, you must not access or use the Services.
2. Eligibility and Capacity
Currently, the Services are available to users of any age. There is no age gate at signup.
BHI intends to restrict the Services to individuals who are at least eighteen (18) years of age and may implement age verification in the future. In the future, BHI may require you to represent and warrant that you are at least eighteen (18) years old and have full legal capacity to enter into binding agreements.
If BHI implements an age restriction and identifies an account belonging to a person under eighteen (18), BHI may suspend or terminate that account and delete associated data, subject to legal retention obligations.
3. Nature of the Services
BHI provides a biometric wellness platform designed to measure, quantify, and track facial aesthetic health through the Beauty Health Index ("BHI Score") and related metrics.
The Services are provided solely for informational, wellness, and self-monitoring purposes. They do not constitute medical advice, medical diagnosis, cosmetic advice, clinical evaluation, or treatment recommendations.
BHI is not a medical device and is not intended to replace consultation with qualified healthcare or aesthetic professionals.
4. No Medical, Cosmetic, or Outcome Guarantees
The BHI Score, reports, insights, recommendations, or any other outputs generated by the Services are inherently variable and depend on multiple factors, including measurement conditions, user inputs, and algorithmic models.
BHI makes no representations, warranties, or guarantees regarding aesthetic outcomes, health improvements, treatment efficacy, or cosmetic results.
Users remain solely responsible for any decisions made based on information provided by the Services.
5. User Accounts and Responsibilities
Users are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of their account credentials and for all activities conducted through their account.
Users agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information during registration and to update such information as necessary. BHI is not responsible for errors, inaccuracies, or outcomes resulting from incorrect or incomplete user-provided data.
6. Consent and Data Processing
Biometric Data Consent
Before capturing your first facial scan, BHI presents an in-App consent disclosure: "I consent to processing my biometric data (facial scans). BHI processes this data only to provide the Services."
You are asked to provide affirmative consent. Consent status is stored on your account. You may withdraw consent at any time through Settings or by contacting support@beautyhealthindex.com. Withdrawal of consent does not affect processing carried out prior to withdrawal but will make biometric-dependent features unavailable.
Scan data is retained and deleted according to the Privacy Policy (60-day automatic deletion or user deletion, whichever is sooner).
Health and Wearable Data
By connecting wearable services (WHOOP, Apple Health) or using features like the Daily Journal, you consent to BHI's collection and processing of that health data, as described in the Privacy Policy.
You may withdraw consent by:
- Disconnecting WHOOP in Settings
- Deleting your account
Withdrawal of Consent
You may withdraw consent for any data processing at any time by contacting support@beautyhealthindex.com.
7. Facial Scans and User Content
Users may capture facial scans and input information through the Services. By submitting such content, users represent that they have the legal right to do so and that the content does not violate any applicable laws or third-party rights.
Users retain ownership of their personal data and scan data. However, users grant BHI a limited, non-exclusive, revocable license to process submitted content solely for the purposes of providing the Services, in accordance with the Privacy Policy.
8. Pricing and Availability
The Services are currently offered free of charge. There are no paid features, subscriptions, or payment processing mechanisms.
BHI may, at any time and in its sole discretion, introduce fees, subscriptions, or other paid features. If we do, we will provide notice and present the applicable pricing, billing, and cancellation terms before you incur any charge.
9. No Referral Incentives or Free Scan Offers
BHI may use AppsFlyer to facilitate referral tracking. Users who share a referral code may receive a free Insight Card when another user downloads the App and completes a facial scan using that referral code. Referral rewards do not provide free scans or guarantee access to any other features or benefits. BHI reserves the right to modify or discontinue referral rewards at any time.
10. Room Feature and Community Content
The Services include an in-App community feature ("Room") where users can create profiles, follow other users, view a community feed, post photographs and captions, and react to and comment on other users' posts (e.g., likes, reactions, comments).
Visibility: Content you post to the Room is visible to other BHI users. Your username, profile photo, and BHI Score (if shared) are visible to other community members.
User responsibility: You are solely responsible for User Content you post and for ensuring compliance with these Terms and applicable law. BHI does not pre-screen, endorse, or approve User Content.
License: By posting content to the Room, you grant BHI a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, store, reproduce, display, and distribute that User Content for the purpose of operating the Room feature. This license ends when you delete the content or your account.
You may delete individual posts at any time, and they will no longer be visible to other users (except to the extent already copied or archived by others).
11. Connected Third-Party Services and Integrations
The Services may integrate with third-party services, including cloud hosting, artificial-intelligence processing, communication platforms, sign-in services (Google, Apple), wearable and health integrations (WHOOP, Apple Health), and product databases (Open Beauty Facts, Open-Meteo).
Each Third-Party Service is governed by that provider's own terms of service and privacy policy. By choosing to connect or use a Third-Party Service through the Services, you agree to be bound by that provider's terms and privacy policy.
BHI does not operate, control, or endorse any Third-Party Service and is not responsible or liable for the availability, accuracy, content, practices, or security of any Third-Party Service.
12. Intellectual Property Rights
All intellectual property rights in and to the Services, including the Beauty Health Index name, trademarks, logos, software, algorithms, scoring systems, reports, and content, are owned by or licensed to BHI.
Nothing in these Terms grants you any ownership or license rights in BHI intellectual property, except for the limited right to use the Services in accordance with these Terms.
