9. AI-Generated Content — No Guarantee of Accuracy
PrepScanner uses AI to identify animals, plants, and objects, but identifications may be incomplete, incorrect, or misleading. We make no guarantee that any identification provided by the app is accurate.
You assume full responsibility for any decisions or actions you take based on information provided by PrepScanner. Dragon Run Technologies LLC is not responsible for any harm, injury, illness, financial loss, or other damage of any kind that results from relying on the app's output — including but not limited to consuming a plant or mushroom the app identified as safe, approaching an animal the app described as non-threatening, or making any other judgment call based on an identification.
Do not rely solely on PrepScanner for decisions involving safety, consumption of wild foods, handling of dangerous animals, or any other activity where an incorrect identification could result in injury, illness, or death. Always verify identifications with qualified experts and local field guides before acting on them.
10. User Content
You retain ownership of photos you upload. By submitting photos to PrepScanner, you grant Dragon Run Technologies LLC a limited license to process and store those images solely for the purpose of providing the identification service. We do not use your photos to train AI models or share them with third parties except as described in our Privacy Policy.
11. Disclaimer of Warranties
PrepScanner is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind, express or implied. Dragon Run Technologies LLC does not warrant that the service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that identifications will be accurate. Use of the app is at your own risk.
12. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Dragon Run Technologies LLC shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of PrepScanner, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia, United States, without regard to conflict of law principles.
16. Changes to These Terms
If we make material changes to these Terms, we will notify you via email before the changes take effect. Continued use of PrepScanner after that date constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.
