Terms of Service
Last updated 7 November 2026
These terms apply when you use the HalalHop app or website, whether you're looking for somewhere to eat or listing a business.
Agreeing to these terms
By using HalalHop you agree to these terms. If you don't agree, please don't use the service. We're based in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia.
Please read this part: what HalalHop is and isn't
HalalHop is a directory. We help you find venues that present themselves as halal, and we show you the certification information those venues have given us.
We are not a halal certifying body, and we do not issue, verify the ongoing validity of, or vouch for any certification. Certification status can change, certificates expire, ownership changes, kitchens change suppliers, and venues can make mistakes or misrepresent themselves. Information in the app may be incomplete, out of date, or wrong.
If the halal status of your food matters to you, and we assume it does, treat HalalHop as a starting point, not as a ruling. Check with the venue and its certifier directly before you eat. You are responsible for your own dietary and religious decisions.
Listing a venue in HalalHop is not an endorsement or a religious ruling by us.
Your account
You need an account to use HalalHop, created by signing in with Apple or Google. Keep your sign-in secure. You're responsible for activity under your account. You must be old enough to form a binding contract where you live, and at least 13.
You can delete your account at any time from the You tab in the app.
Using the service properly
You agree not to:
- Submit false, misleading or fraudulent information, including fake businesses or forged certification documents.
- Upload content you don't have the rights to, or that is unlawful, offensive, or infringes someone else's rights.
- Scrape, copy or redistribute the listings database, or use automated tools to extract data from the service.
- Interfere with the service, attempt to bypass security rules, or access accounts or data that aren't yours.
- Use HalalHop to harass a business or misrepresent your relationship with one.
If you list a business
When you apply to list a business you confirm that you are authorised to represent it, and that everything you submit, including your halal certification document, is accurate, current and genuine.
- You must keep your listing up to date, and tell us promptly if your certification lapses, changes or is withdrawn.
- You grant us permission to display the details and images you submit within HalalHop and in material promoting the service.
- We review applications before publishing, but our review is not a certification audit and does not make us responsible for your claims.
- We can decline, edit, suspend or remove any listing at our discretion, in particular where information appears false, certification cannot be substantiated, or we receive credible complaints.
Offers and promotions
Offers in HalalHop are created and funded by the venue, not by us. The venue sets the terms, decides what qualifies, and is responsible for honouring the offer. If a venue refuses to honour an offer, take it up with the venue, though we'd like to hear about it, because it affects whether they stay listed.
Offers have no cash value. We may remove an offer at any time, and an offer may become unavailable before its stated end date.
Paid features
Some features for businesses may be offered as paid plans. Where they are, the price, billing period and what's included will be shown to you before you pay. Unless stated otherwise, paid plans give access to promotional features only. They never buy a certification, a trust rating, or preferential treatment of halal information.
Our content
The HalalHop name, logo, design and software are ours. You may use the app for its intended purpose; you may not copy, resell or create derivative works from it. Content you submit stays yours, subject to the permission you grant us above to display it.
Availability
We provide HalalHop on an "as is" and "as available" basis. We may change, suspend or discontinue features at any time, and we don't guarantee the service will be uninterrupted or error-free.
Liability
Nothing in these terms excludes, restricts or modifies any consumer guarantee, right or remedy you have under the Australian Consumer Law or any other law that cannot be excluded.
Subject to that, to the maximum extent permitted by law we are not liable for indirect or consequential loss, and our total liability to you in connection with the service is limited to resupplying the service or paying the cost of having it resupplied. Where you have paid us, that limit is the amount you paid in the twelve months before the claim.
Ending access
You can stop using HalalHop and delete your account whenever you like. We may suspend or terminate access if you breach these terms or if we reasonably believe your use puts other users, businesses or the service at risk.
Changes to these terms
We may update these terms. We'll change the "last updated" date above, and where changes are significant we'll let you know in the app or by email. Continuing to use HalalHop after a change means you accept the updated terms.
Governing law and contact
These terms are governed by the laws of Queensland, Australia, and the courts of Queensland have non-exclusive jurisdiction.
