1. Acceptance of these terms
By creating an account, accessing a Trust Profile, or otherwise using HalalTrust, you agree to these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, do not use the service.
If you use HalalTrust on behalf of a restaurant or other organization, you represent that you have authority to bind that organization to these terms.
2. What HalalTrust provides
HalalTrust provides tools for restaurants to organize and display restaurant-provided halal information, including restaurant details, listed documents, supplier information, practices, a public Trust Profile, and a QR code.
HalalTrust is a transparency platform, not a halal certifier. HalalTrust does not certify, endorse, audit, inspect, guarantee, or make religious, legal, dietary, health, or safety rulings. A Trust Profile is not proof that a restaurant, supplier, ingredient, or practice satisfies any particular halal standard.
3. Accounts and security
Restaurant owners must provide accurate account information and maintain the confidentiality of their login credentials. You are responsible for activity performed through your account unless applicable law provides otherwise.
You must notify HalalTrust promptly if you believe your account has been accessed without authorization. HalalTrust may use authentication, rate limiting, audit records, and other security controls to protect the service.
4. Restaurant-provided content
The restaurant is solely responsible for the accuracy, completeness, currency, legality, and presentation of information it submits or lists, including document titles, issuing organizations, dates, external links, supplier details, and restaurant-stated practices.
By submitting content, you represent that you have the right to share it and grant HalalTrust a limited license to store, process, format, and publicly display that content as needed to operate the service.
You must not submit misleading claims, impersonate a certifier or other organization, misrepresent a document, link to malicious or unlawful material, or use HalalTrust to deceive customers. HalalTrust may remove or restrict content or accounts that violate these terms or create legal, security, or customer-harm risks.
5. Public profiles and third-party information
Trust Profiles are public. Anyone with the profile URL or QR code may view the restaurant information displayed there. Restaurants should not place private, confidential, or unnecessary personal information in public-facing fields.
Documents, issuing organizations, suppliers, websites, and other third-party information are provided or selected by the restaurant. HalalTrust does not control third-party websites and is not responsible for their content, availability, or privacy practices.
6. Trial, subscription, and billing
The Founding Restaurant Pilot begins with a 30-day free trial. No payment card is required when the owner account is created.
An owner may separately activate the Founding Pilot subscription from the protected dashboard at $39 per month. Stripe processes checkout and recurring payments. The price, trial timing, billing date, and other details shown during Stripe checkout form part of the billing terms.
Owners with an active Stripe customer account may use the billing portal to manage or cancel the subscription. Cancellation ordinarily stops future renewals according to the billing settings shown by Stripe. HalalTrust may limit paid features or profile availability when a trial or subscription is no longer active, subject to applicable law and any notice provided in the service.
7. Acceptable use
You may not interfere with the service, attempt unauthorized access, probe or bypass security controls, introduce malicious code, scrape the service at a harmful rate, use the service unlawfully, or infringe the rights of another person or organization.
You may not use HalalTrust branding, profile design, or QR codes to imply HalalTrust certification, endorsement, partnership, or religious approval.
8. Availability and changes
HalalTrust is an early-stage pilot and may change, suspend, or discontinue features. The service may experience outages, errors, or data-display delays. HalalTrust does not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation.
We may update these terms as the product, law, or business changes. The updated date will appear on this page. Continued use after an update constitutes acceptance to the extent permitted by law.
9. Disclaimer and limitation of liability
The service is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis to the maximum extent permitted by law. HalalTrust disclaims warranties that are not expressly stated in these terms.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, HalalTrust is not liable for restaurant-provided claims, customer decisions, third-party documents or websites, religious or dietary determinations, lost profits, lost data, reputational harm, or indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from use of the service.
Some jurisdictions do not allow certain warranty exclusions or liability limitations, so parts of this section may not apply to you.
10. Suspension and termination
HalalTrust may suspend or terminate access when reasonably necessary to address nonpayment, security threats, unlawful activity, misleading content, material violations of these terms, or risk to customers, restaurants, HalalTrust, or third parties.
You may stop using the service at any time. Subscription cancellation and account or data deletion are separate actions and may require completion through the billing portal or a support request.
