Front photo (optional)
📢 Your photo will be public: anyone who scans this barcode can see it, and it is shared as part of the community database. Photograph only the front of the product, not people, faces, documents or anything personal. Location and camera data (EXIF/GPS) are removed on your phone before upload.
When you tap Check, the barcode , the name/brand above and the ingredient text are sent to the Let Me Scan That community database and shown publicly to anyone who scans this barcode. Nothing personal is sent: no account, location or scan history (history stays on this phone), and the label photo used for OCR stays on this phone. A Cloudflare Turnstile check runs to block spam.

About
Ingredient and product text in the bulk reference comes from the sources below. Community products that people submit in this app are a separate store. They are not part of these databases. Photos that people add in this app are shared publicly as part of the community database.

Share-alike
The bulk database is a derived database. It contains Open Database License data from Open Food Facts, Open Beauty Facts, and Open Products Facts, together with USDA CC0 rows and NIH public-domain rows. If that database, or a substantial extract of it, is publicly shared, it has to be offered under the Open Database License v1.0 with attribution to those Open Facts projects. A per-product lookup from the API is a Produced Work: it needs attribution (the source, the Open Database License, and a link) and is not itself a database that has to be relicensed. The community store is separate. It holds labels people submitted here. It is not part of the Open Facts databases and this share-alike note does not apply to it.
