Terms of use
These terms apply to the MamaLoop app and the website mamaloop.com.au, which are run by MamaLoop ("we", "us"). By using them you agree to these terms. There is no account to create.
What MamaLoop is
MamaLoop is a pregnancy and baby diary, a getting-ready guide and a set of honest product picks. It gives general information and lets you record what you choose. It is for adults: parents, parents-to-be and carers aged 18 or over.
Not medical advice
MamaLoop is not a medical device and does not diagnose, treat or prevent any condition. It never interprets the information you record. Everything in it is general information and does not replace advice from your midwife, doctor, child health nurse or other health professional who knows you and your child. In an emergency, call 000. Our "Not medical advice" page says more.
Your data is on your phone
What you record in the app is stored only on your phone. We can't see it and we can't recover it. You're responsible for keeping your phone secure and for exporting a copy if you want a backup. Our privacy policy explains this in full.
Our picks and affiliate links
- Our picks are the MamaLoop team's honest opinions and research summaries, written in our own words. They are general information about products, not a promise that a product suits your family or your child.
- Some retailer buttons are affiliate links: if you buy through them, MamaLoop may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. This never changes what we recommend. See our affiliate disclosure.
- Price bands and price ranges are a guide from our last check. Prices, stock, delivery, returns and warranties are set by the retailer, and you buy from the retailer, not from us.
- Always follow the manufacturer's instructions and the relevant Australian standard, and check recalls at productsafety.gov.au.
Community tips and gift registries (coming later)
When the app adds community tips and shareable registries, you'll be responsible for what you submit, it must follow our community guidelines, and you'll keep ownership of it while giving us permission to publish, moderate and display it in MamaLoop. Tips are other parents' experiences, not advice. We'll add the full terms for these features before they launch.
MamaLoop is free
MamaLoop has no paid features, subscriptions or ads. Every feature is free for every family.
You can choose to give a voluntary contribution through the Support MamaLoop page. A contribution is a gift: it doesn't buy goods or services, unlock features, or create a membership. MamaLoop isn't a registered charity, so contributions aren't tax-deductible. If you give by mistake, contact us within 30 days and we'll refund it. Your rights under the Australian Consumer Law aren't affected.
Using MamaLoop fairly
- Don't misuse the app, the website or our redirect links, for example by sending automated traffic, trying to inflate tap counts, or trying to break into our server.
- Don't copy our content wholesale. You're welcome to share links to our pages.
- Don't use MamaLoop for anything unlawful.
Our content
The text, design and picks in MamaLoop are ours or used under licence, and are protected by copyright. Content from public sources (such as the WHO growth standards and the CDC milestone checklists) is attributed on our sources page and remains under its own terms.
Your rights under Australian Consumer Law
Nothing in these terms excludes, restricts or changes any right you have under the Australian Consumer Law or any other law that can't be excluded. Subject to that, MamaLoop is provided as is, and to the extent the law allows we are not liable for loss arising from relying on general information or from a retailer's products or service.
Changes and ending
We may update these terms; the date at the top shows the latest version and we'll mention important changes in the app. You can stop using MamaLoop at any time by deleting the app. Deleting the app deletes your data on the phone unless you've exported it.
Law and contact
These terms are governed by the laws of Australia. Questions: [email protected].
