Last updated: May 4, 2026. By creating an account or using MenuRegistry, you accept these terms.
MenuRegistry produces informational allergen audits of restaurant menu content. You upload a menu; our automated audit engine analyzes it for the presence of the 9 FDA major allergens; we return a structured audit report with a tamper-evident SHA-256 audit log.
The audits are not legal advice and not compliance certification. They are analytical outputs designed to help you identify allergen disclosure gaps. A MenuRegistry audit does not guarantee that your menu complies with any federal, state, or local allergen disclosure law. Operators are solely responsible for verifying compliance with applicable regulations.
To create an account you must be at least 18 years old and have legal authority to bind the business on whose behalf you are using the service. If you are signing up on behalf of a restaurant group or corporation, you represent that you have the authority to accept these terms for that entity.
Accounts are not shared. Each account is tied to a single email address. We use magic-link authentication — there are no passwords, but you are responsible for the security of the email inbox that receives your sign-in links. Do not forward magic-link emails or allow others to use your sign-in links.
You are responsible for all activity that occurs under your account. Notify us immediately at hello@menuregistry.com if you believe your account has been compromised.
You may use MenuRegistry to audit menus for restaurants you own, operate, or are otherwise legitimately authorized to represent. You may not use the service to audit menus on behalf of restaurants you do not have authorization to represent.
The following uses are prohibited:
Paid plans are billed on a monthly recurring basis via Stripe. Your subscription renews automatically at the start of each billing period unless you cancel.
You may cancel at any time through your account settings. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period — you retain full access through that date. We do not issue refunds for partial billing months on monthly plans.
Annual plans, when offered, are eligible for a pro-rata refund of the unused portion of the annual term if you cancel within the first 30 days. After 30 days, annual plans are non-refundable but will not auto-renew if cancelled before the renewal date.
If a payment fails, we will retry the charge and notify you by email. If the charge cannot be collected within 7 days, your account may be downgraded to the Free tier until payment is resolved.
The Free tier includes one (1) allergen audit with a watermarked PDF preview. The watermarked PDF is provided for evaluation purposes only.
The watermarked PDF is not a compliance-ready document and must not be used as evidence of allergen compliance in any regulatory, legal, or operational context. Upgrade to a Pro plan to generate clean, audit-grade PDFs with SHA-256 verification.
The service is provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including but not limited to warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement.
MenuRegistry explicitly disclaims any warranty that its allergen audits are complete, accurate, or sufficient for legal compliance. AI analysis of menu content is subject to error — ingredients may be ambiguous, proprietary recipes may be withheld, and cross-contamination risks are outside the scope of our analysis. The operator is solely responsible for the accuracy of the menu content uploaded and for verifying allergen disclosures with their kitchen operations team before publishing any menu.
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, MenuRegistry's total liability to you for any claim arising out of or related to the service — whether in contract, tort, statute, or otherwise — is limited to the lesser of (a) $100 or (b) the total fees you paid to MenuRegistry in the 12 months preceding the claim.
In no event will MenuRegistry be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages — including loss of profits, loss of data, business interruption, or regulatory fines — even if advised of the possibility of such damages. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain types of damages; in those jurisdictions, our liability is limited to the maximum extent permitted by law.
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless MenuRegistry and its officers, directors, employees, and agents from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses — including reasonable attorneys' fees — arising out of or relating to: (a) your menu content or any information you provide to the service; (b) your use of the service or any audit results; (c) your violation of these terms; or (d) your violation of any applicable allergen disclosure law or regulation.
Any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these terms or the service will be resolved by binding individual arbitration in the State of California, under the rules of the American Arbitration Association (AAA) then in effect, except as provided below. The arbitrator's award will be final and binding and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.
Class action waiver: To the fullest extent permitted by law, you waive the right to bring any dispute as a class action, class arbitration, representative action, or consolidated proceeding. You may only bring claims in your individual capacity.
Either party may bring a claim in small claims court for disputes within the jurisdictional limit of that court, without first arbitrating. Nothing in this section limits either party's right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief for intellectual property infringement.
You may delete your account at any time through your account settings. MenuRegistry reserves the right to suspend or terminate accounts for material breach of these terms, fraudulent activity, or conduct that poses a legal or security risk to the service. Where practicable, we will provide notice and an opportunity to cure before termination. Sections of these terms that by their nature survive termination (including limitation of liability, indemnification, and arbitration) will continue to apply after any termination.
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, USA, without regard to conflict-of-law principles, except that the arbitration clause above is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act to the extent it applies.
