Terms of Use
Dalil is information, not a fatwa and not a certification. It shows what named public rulings and regulatory identity facts say about an ingredient, with a link to each source, so you can read them yourself. It does not certify any product and it is not a substitute for your scholar or for a certifier.
What the app does
Dalil reads an ingredient list you photograph, paste or type, matches the printed names against a bundled dictionary, and shows a status with the evidence behind it: what the ingredient is, what rulings say, who holds each position, and which of your own settings applied. Where honest rulings differ, both are shown and neither is presented as the answer.
Limits you should know about
- A label can be wrong, incomplete or out of date. Dalil can only read what is printed.
- Many ingredients depend on a production route the label does not state. Gelatine, mono- and diglycerides, enzymes and flavour carriers are all like this. Dalil says so rather than guessing.
- Some entries are identified but not yet classified. Those ship with the identity fact and no verdict, on purpose. A missing verdict is not a clearance.
- No flags found is not a certification. It means nothing on the list matched a row Dalil holds a ruling on.
- The dictionary has a date, shown in Settings. Rulings and formulations change.
Purchases and subscriptions
- Dalil is free to use. Every scan, every lookup, every verdict and every source stays free. The Dalil Pass buys convenience on top of that: unlimited history, exporting a reading with its sources, the one-tap ruling presets and an unlimited pantry.
- The Pass is available as a one-time purchase or as an auto-renewing subscription. Prices are shown in the app in your own currency at the moment of purchase, and are set in the App Store.
- A subscription renews automatically unless it is cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours before the period ends.
- You can manage or cancel a subscription in your App Store account settings, or from the Pass card in the app's Settings. Deleting the app does not cancel a subscription.
- The supporter tip is a one-time payment that unlocks nothing at all.
- Refunds are handled by Apple under their terms. We cannot issue them.
Your content
Text you paste and photographs you take stay on your device. We never receive them, so we cannot use them for anything.
Liability
Dalil is provided as is, without warranty of any kind. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any loss arising from reliance on the app, including a purchase you make or decline to make on the basis of what it shows. If you need certainty about a product, ask its certifier or your scholar.
Corrections
If an entry is wrong, tell us and we will fix it or demote it to unclassified. See the corrections page. Wrong entries are worse than missing ones, and we would rather ship a smaller honest dictionary than a larger guessed one.
