Terms of Service

These terms apply when you use the Premno desktop app, your Premno account, the package marketplace, Premno Cloud and this website (together, “Premno”). By using Premno you agree to them. If you don’t agree, please don’t use Premno.

Not medical advice

Premno is for research, education and personal interest. It is not a medical device and does not diagnose, treat or prevent any condition. Results from packages and explanations from the assistant can be incomplete or wrong, and consumer genotyping data has known error rates. Do not make medical, medication, reproductive or other health decisions based on Premno alone. Talk to a doctor or genetic counsellor first.

Who can use Premno

You must be at least 18. Only analyse genetic data that is your own, or that you have the clear permission of its owner to analyse.

Your account

You sign in with Google or GitHub, and you are responsible for activity on your account. Tell us at easy.bioinf@gmail.com if you think someone else has accessed it. You can stop using Premno and ask us to delete your account at any time.

Your data

Your genome files and results are yours and stay on your computer. You are responsible for keeping your own backups. How we handle the limited data we do process is described in our Privacy Policy.

Packages and the marketplace

Packages are analysis programs written by Premno or by independent researchers. We review submissions before listing them, and every package runs in an isolated container without network access. Still, we do not guarantee that any package is accurate, complete or suitable for your purpose. Third-party packages are the responsibility of their authors, and may come with their own licence.

The marketplace does not currently take payments. If we introduce paid packages, we will update these terms first and show prices before you buy.

Researchers who publish packages

If you submit a package, you confirm that you have the right to publish it and that it does what its description says. Your package must not try to access the network, collect data, or do anything other than its stated analysis. You keep ownership of your package and give us a licence to review, list, distribute and display it in Premno. We may decline or remove any package.

Reviews and comments

Reviews and comments are public. Do not post your own or anyone else’s genetic results, personal health information, or anything unlawful, abusive, misleading or spam. We may remove content and suspend accounts that break these rules.

Premno Cloud

Premno Cloud is an optional assistant powered by Anthropic’s Claude. It has daily fair-use limits, and we may change or end it. Don’t use it to try to get around its limits or safeguards, or for anything other than understanding your results.

Acceptable use

Don’t misuse Premno. That includes reverse-engineering our services to attack them, interfering with other users, overloading our servers, or using Premno to break the law or anyone’s rights.

Changes and availability

Premno is in early development. Features may change, and the service may sometimes be unavailable. If we change these terms in a significant way, we will update the date above and let you know in the app or by email. Continuing to use Premno after that means you accept the new terms.

Disclaimers and liability

Premno is provided “as is”, without warranties of any kind. To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for indirect or consequential losses, or for decisions you make based on Premno’s results. Nothing in these terms limits rights you have under consumer protection law, or liability that cannot legally be limited.

Ending your use

You can stop using Premno at any time. We may suspend or close accounts that break these terms. The app keeps working with your local files even without an account.
