Legal Agreement

Terms and Conditions

Effective: January 3, 2026Version 3.0

No Legal Advice & No Guarantee

The materials and HACCP plans generated by iLoveHACCP ("the Service") are for informational and documentation purposes only. The Service functions as a productivity tool to assist in the drafting of food safety documents based on user inputs and generic industry algorithms.

By using this Service, you expressly acknowledge that:

  • Not a Certification: The documents generated are drafts. They do not constitute a "certificate," "approval," or "validation" by any regulatory body (such as the FSA or local Environmental Health officers).
  • Regulatory Scope: This tool uses logic guided by the principles of EU Regulation (EC) No 852/2004 and applicable UK retained food law. It is not designed for compliance with non-EU/UK regulatory frameworks.
  • Operator Responsibility: You, as the Food Business Operator, remain solely and legally responsible for the safety of your food, the accuracy of your HACCP plan, and its practical implementation. A document alone does not ensure safety.
  • Professional Review Required: We strongly recommend (and in some high-risk cases, regulations may require) that your final plan be reviewed by a qualified local food safety consultant or environmental health officer to ensure it matches your specific on-site reality.
