Terms of Service

Last updated: May 7, 2026

Important Medical Disclaimer, Please Read Carefully

Tricholens is a screening and tracking tool only. It is NOT a diagnostic service, NOT a medical device, and does NOT provide medical advice of any kind.

  • Tricholens cannot diagnose hair loss conditions, skin disorders, or any medical condition.
  • Analysis results, scores, and trends are informational indicators only, they do not constitute a clinical diagnosis.
  • Always consult a licensed dermatologist, trichologist, or other qualified healthcare professional before making any healthcare decisions.
  • Do not delay or disregard professional medical advice based on anything you read or see within Tricholens.

1. Acceptance of Terms

By creating an account, accessing, or using Tricholens ("the Service", "we", "our", or "us"), you agree to be legally bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms in their entirety, you must not access or use the Service.

We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time. Continued use of the Service after changes have been posted constitutes your acceptance of the updated Terms. We will make reasonable efforts to notify you of material changes.

2. Nature of the Service

Tricholens provides a personal hair and scalp health monitoring platform using photographic analysis and AI-assisted tools. The Service is intended to help users track changes in their hair and scalp over time as a general wellness and self-monitoring aid.

The Service is a screening tool only. Outputs from the Service, including but not limited to hair density estimates, condition scores, trend charts, and AI-generated summaries, are not clinically validated diagnostic results. They do not replace a professional medical examination, laboratory test, or clinical assessment.

You acknowledge that image quality, lighting conditions, and other factors may affect analysis accuracy, and that the Service should not be relied upon for any medical purpose.

3. AI Chatbot & AI-Assisted Features

Tricholens includes AI-powered chat assistants and AI-generated content. These features are provided for general research, information, and inquiry purposes only.

  • AI responses are generated by large language models and may be inaccurate, incomplete, outdated, or inappropriate for your specific situation.
  • AI chatbots are not medical professionals and cannot assess your individual health status, medical history, or clinical needs.
  • Do not use AI chatbot responses as a substitute for professional medical consultation.
  • Always verify information from the AI with a qualified healthcare professional before acting on it.

We make no warranty that AI-generated content is accurate, complete, or suitable for any particular purpose. You use AI features entirely at your own risk and judgment.

4. Staff Consultations & Support

Tricholens may offer consultations or communications with our team members. These consultations are strictly about your experience with our platform, how to use the tools, understanding the software, billing, and general product guidance.

Staff members are not licensed medical professionals and are not qualified to provide medical advice, clinical recommendations, diagnoses, or treatment plans. Any information shared by our staff is not medical advice and should not be treated as such. Please direct all health concerns to a qualified healthcare professional.

5. Eligibility & Age Requirement (18+)

This Service is restricted to users who are 18 years of age or older. By creating an account or signing in (including through Google or any other identity provider), you represent and warrant that you are at least 18 years old. We require an explicit age attestation at sign-up; submitting a false attestation is a violation of these Terms and grounds for immediate, permanent account termination.

We do not knowingly permit minors to register or use the Service. If we become aware that a user is under 18, we will promptly suspend the account, delete the associated personal data, and (where required by law) notify a parent or guardian. Parents who believe their child has registered without authorisation should contact us immediately at info@folligenz.com.

You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account. You must notify us immediately of any unauthorised access or use of your account.

5B. Prohibited Content & Image Safety

Tricholens is a hair and scalp imaging service. Sexually explicit content, nudity, and images of genitalia are strictly prohibited and will never be hosted on our platform.

You agree NOT to upload, submit, transmit, or share, through any feature of the Service, including AI tools, the photo gallery, the photo diary, the community, profile photos, or any chat, any image or other content that:

  • Depicts sexually explicit acts, sexual nudity, or intimate / pornographic content of any kind;
  • Depicts exposed genitalia, the anus, or female nipples, regardless of artistic, educational, or clinical framing;
  • Depicts any minor (under 18) in a sexual or suggestive context, such content will be reported to the appropriate authorities, including the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) where required by law;
  • Constitutes graphic violence, gore, hate imagery, or other content unsuitable for a medical-screening platform.

Automated screening. All image uploads are passed through an automated content-safety classifier before they are stored on our servers. Images flagged as sexual or genital are rejected, never written to storage, and never analysed. The classifier may also flag other clearly unsuitable content (e.g. graphic violence) at our discretion.

Consequences of a violation. Each rejected upload is logged against your account. We may, at our sole discretion and without prior notice:

  • Issue a written warning;
  • Suspend access to the Service while we investigate;
  • Permanently terminate your account and cancel any active subscription, with no refund of fees paid;
  • Retain non-image evidence of the violation (such as a one-way cryptographic hash of the rejected image, your account identifier, the timestamp, and the IP address) for safety, legal, and investigative purposes; and
  • Where the content depicts a minor or otherwise constitutes a criminal offence, cooperate fully with law enforcement and report to the relevant authorities.

If you believe an image was flagged in error, you may appeal by contacting info@folligenz.com. False or abusive appeals will themselves count as a violation of these Terms.

6. Your Content & Data

You retain ownership of all images, posts, and other content you submit to the Service ("Your Content"). By submitting Your Content, you grant Tricholens a limited, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to store, process, and display it solely for the purpose of providing the Service to you.

We do not sell your images or personal data to third parties. Your scalp images and health data are used solely to provide and improve the features you use.

You have full control over your data. You may delete your images, analysis sessions, community posts, chat history, or your entire account at any time through Account Settings. Upon account deletion, your personal data will be removed from our systems within a reasonable period, subject to any legal retention obligations.

  • In violation of any applicable law or regulation

We reserve the right to remove any content and suspend or terminate accounts that violate these rules.
