Terms

These terms cover your use of the Sipelle app and this website — the short version: drink responsibly, and don't rely on AI estimates.

Effective date

These terms are effective as of October 12, 2026.

Agreement to these terms

These terms are a contract between you and Nicholas Titus ("Sipelle", "we", "us"), covering the Sipelle app and this website. By using the app, you accept these terms. This agreement is between you and us only — not with Apple Inc. or Google LLC.

You must be 21 or older

Sipelle is about alcoholic drinks. You may use it only if you are 21 or older, wherever you live, also where the legal drinking age is lower. The app asks for your date of birth the first time you open it. Enter your own, real date of birth. If the date is under 21, the app is blocked on that phone.

What Sipelle does

You photograph a drinks menu, and AI reads it and shows a card for each drink with an AI-generated image. You can give drinks a thumbs-up or a thumbs-down, and Sipelle points out drinks similar to the ones you liked on later menus. With a subscription, each card also shows estimated nutrition details.

Your account

From version 1.2.0. The first time you open Sipelle it asks for your first name, date of birth and gender and sets up an account for you. There is no email, no password and no login. The account belongs to the copy of the app on your phone: if you delete the app or change phones, you may not be able to get back to what was saved in it. An account that is not used for 24 months is deleted. You can delete your account and its data at any time in the app, under Drink Preferences, Delete My Data.

AI-generated content

The drink images are illustrations generated by AI — not photos of the actual drinks a venue serves. Calorie, ABV, sugar, and carbohydrate figures are rough AI estimates that can be wrong, and menus can be misread. Never rely on Sipelle for dietary, allergy, medical, or intoxication or driving decisions — check with the venue.

Drink responsibly

Sipelle shows information about drinks; it doesn't encourage drinking. Follow local laws and never drink and drive.

Your license to use Sipelle

We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use Sipelle for your personal, non-commercial use. On Apple devices, this license is further limited to use permitted by the Usage Rules in the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions.

Subscriptions

Nutrition estimates are unlocked by an optional auto-renewing yearly subscription. The price is shown in the app before you buy, and payment is charged to your App Store or Google Play account.

  • It renews automatically until you cancel it in your App Store or Google Play settings at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
  • Restore Purchases is available in the app if you reinstall or switch devices.
  • Refunds are handled by Apple or Google under their own policies.

Acceptable use

When using Sipelle, please don't:

  • reverse engineer the app, except where the law expressly allows it;
  • scrape or bulk-automate the service, or abuse its rate limits;
  • use it for anything unlawful, or resell it.

Intellectual property

The app, its artwork, and the AI-generated images and text belong to us or our licensors. The photos you take remain yours. You give us permission to process them, including via third-party AI providers, and to save the menu details read from them, your likes and dislikes and your preferences to your account, solely to provide the service.

Privacy

How we handle your photos and data, and how to delete it, is described in our privacy policy.

Disclaimers

Sipelle is provided "as is" and "as available". To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied.

Limitation of liability

To the extent permitted by law, our total liability to you is capped at the greater of what you paid us in the past 12 months or US $50. Some jurisdictions don't allow these limits, so they may not fully apply to you.

Additional terms for Apple users

If you downloaded Sipelle from the App Store, the following also applies:

  • These terms are between you and us, not Apple — and we, not Apple, are solely responsible for the app and its content.
  • Apple has no obligation to provide maintenance or support for the app — we do, at info@sipelle.app.
  • If the app fails to conform to any warranty, you may notify Apple and Apple will refund the purchase price; Apple has no other warranty obligation.
  • We, not Apple, are responsible for addressing any claims about the app — including product liability, legal or regulatory non-conformity, and consumer protection or similar claims — and any third-party claim that the app infringes intellectual property rights.
  • You represent that you are not located in a country subject to a U.S. government embargo or designated a "terrorist supporting" country, and that you are not on any U.S. government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
  • Apple and Apple's subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these terms and may enforce them against you.

Additional terms for Google Play users

Subscriptions bought on Android are processed by Google Play under Google's terms. Google is not a party to these terms and isn't responsible for the app.

Termination

We may suspend or end your access if you break these terms. You can stop using Sipelle at any time. Deleting the app or deleting your data doesn't cancel a subscription. Cancel it in your App Store or Google Play settings.

Changes to these terms

If these terms change, we'll update this page and the effective date. Continuing to use Sipelle after changes means you accept them.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Florida, USA, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules. Any disputes will be handled in the courts located in Florida.
