1. Service Description

Basketr is a free grocery price comparison tool that aggregates publicly available pricing data from UK supermarkets including Tesco, ASDA, Sainsbury's, Morrisons, Ocado, M&S, Waitrose, Iceland, Aldi, Lidl, Co-op, Dunnes, and Heron Foods. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or partnered with any of these retailers.

2. Price Accuracy

Prices displayed on Basketr are collected from publicly available sources and may not always reflect the current in-store or online price. Prices can change at any time without notice. We make reasonable efforts to keep data up to date, but we do not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, or timeliness of any pricing information.

Always verify the final price on the retailer's website or in-store before making a purchase.

3. No Liability

Basketr is provided "as is" without warranty of any kind. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of this service, including but not limited to:

• Incorrect or outdated pricing information.
• Purchasing decisions made based on our data.
• Service interruptions or unavailability.
• Loss of data or account information.

4. Receipt Scanner

The receipt scanning feature uses AI (Anthropic Claude) to extract text from images. Results are approximate and may contain errors. Product matching is performed algorithmically and may not always find the correct corresponding product. You should verify matched products and prices before relying on the analysis.

5. User Accounts

You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account credentials. We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that are used to abuse the service, including but not limited to automated scraping, excessive API usage, or any activity that degrades service performance.

6. Intellectual Property

Product names, images, and branding are the property of their respective retailers. Basketr's interface, code, and original content are our intellectual property. You may not scrape, reproduce, or redistribute our aggregated data without permission.

7. Changes to Terms

We may update these terms at any time. Continued use of Basketr after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated terms. Material changes will be communicated via the app.

8. Governing Law

These terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales. Any disputes shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales.
