Terms of Use

Last updated: 25 October 2026

1. Acceptance of terms

By downloading, installing or using the Fish ID app (shown as Fish Identifier in the App Store, the "App"), you agree to these Terms of Use. If you do not agree, do not use the App. The App is published by Orkhan Alizada.

2. What the App does

Fish ID is a mobile app that uses artificial intelligence to help identify fish from photos. It gives educational information about the species it identifies, such as habitat, diet, lookalikes, fishing tips and handling notes.

3. Subscriptions

You can use the App without an account. Some features need a paid subscription, called Premium.

• Your first identification is free. After that, identifying fish needs Premium or a scan pack. Premium is an auto-renewing subscription, offered as a weekly plan and a yearly plan, with no free trial. The title, price and billing period are shown in the App before you buy. Some people may be shown a first-year discount (for example a one-time offer or a thank-you offer after an app update); its price and the price it renews at are shown before you buy.
• Payment is charged to your Apple ID account when you confirm the purchase.
• The subscription renews automatically unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours before the end of the period, at the price shown for that plan.
• You can manage or cancel your subscription at any time in your Apple ID settings (Settings, then your name, then Subscriptions). Deleting the App does not cancel it.
• A scan pack is a one-time purchase of a fixed number of identifications. It is not a subscription, it is stored on your device and it cannot be restored or moved to another device. Refunds are handled by Apple under App Store policies. I cannot issue refunds for App Store purchases.
• Apple's standard End User License Agreement (EULA) applies to your use of the App: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/.

4. Acceptable use

You agree to:

• Use the App for personal, non-commercial purposes.
• Not try to reverse engineer, copy or modify the App.
• Not misuse the identification service, for example by sending automated or excessive requests, or by sending photos that you do not have the right to use or that are unlawful.
• Not use the App for any illegal or unauthorized purpose.

A daily limit on the number of identifications applies to everyone.

5. Content and accuracy

• Fish identifications are estimates made by artificial intelligence. They can be wrong.
• Results are for general information and education only. I do not guarantee that any identification or other information is correct, complete or up to date.
• Always consult an expert or official sources when it matters.

6. Edibility, handling and fishing rules

Information about whether a fish is safe to eat, how to handle it, what it looks like next to similar fish, and how to catch it is general information. It is not a safety guarantee. Some fish are poisonous, venomous or unsafe to eat even when they look like a safe species. Never eat or handle a fish based only on what the App tells you. If you are not sure what a fish is, do not eat it.

Fishing rules differ by place and change over time: size and catch limits, seasons, licences, protected species and closed waters. The App does not tell you what is legal where you are. The "Fishing rules in your state" link opens a state or national agency website, which I do not control. Always check the official rules from the responsible authority before you fish or keep a catch. You are responsible for following them.

7. Privacy

Your privacy matters. Please read the Privacy Policy to see how the App handles your information.

8. Intellectual property

• The App and its content are protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws.
• You keep ownership of the photos you take or choose.
• When you identify a photo, the App sends it to the identification service and to OpenAI, as described in the Privacy Policy.

9. Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, I SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THE APP, INCLUDING DAMAGES OR HARM RESULTING FROM RELYING ON AN IDENTIFICATION, EDIBILITY OR HANDLING INFORMATION, OR FROM FISHING IN BREACH OF LOCAL RULES. Nothing in these Terms limits rights you have under the law that cannot be limited.

10. Termination

I may suspend or end your access to the App at any time, with or without notice, for any reason, including violation of these Terms.

11. Changes to these terms

I may change these Terms at any time. The date at the top shows the latest version. Continued use of the App after a change means you accept the new Terms.
