LINFA · in force from 14 October 2026
This is a translation. If it differs from the Italian version, the Italian version applies: Termini di servizio.
LINFA is an app by Federico Ragusa, Via Val Leventina 6, 20148 Milan (MI), Italy, VAT not applicable (individual), contact linfaplantcare@gmail.com. It keeps the plants you have at home, on a balcony or in a garden alive: it measures where they stand, reads that place’s weather, and says when it is worth checking them.
LINFA’s advice comes from a model of the pot’s water balance, the weather and what you tell it. These are estimates, not certainties, and the app says so every time it shows one. A plant can suffer for reasons no model sees. LINFA is not a plant health service, does not replace an agronomist, and is not suitable for professional growing. The decisions about a plant remain yours.
An account is needed, and it may be anonymous. You are responsible for what happens on it. If you delete it from the app, everything it holds goes and does not come back. We may close an account used to harm other people, and we will say so when we do.
What you write in the community is read by other people. No insults, harassment or threats; no personal data, including your own address; no dangerous advice; no advertising or spam; nothing of other people’s that you have no right to post. You remain the author of what you write and give us permission to show it in the app, and nothing more. Every question, answer and profile can be reported, and every person blocked. We have zero tolerance for offensive or abusive content and for the people who post it: we remove it, and whoever posts it can be excluded from the community. We look at every report within 24 hours; when several people report the same thing, it is hidden at once, even before we look at it. If you delete your account, the words you wrote stay without your name, because other people’s answers are not yours to delete.
LINFA is free to use. LINFA+ is a subscription bought inside the app through the App Store or Google Play: payment, renewal and cancellation are theirs, under their terms, and are managed in your account settings on those stores. It renews automatically until you cancel, at least 24 hours before it is due. Deleting your LINFA account does not cancel the subscription: cancel it where you bought it. If you are a consumer in the EU you have fourteen days to change your mind; by asking for immediate access to LINFA+ you agree that the service starts at once, and the right to withdraw is lost once it has been fully provided. Refunds are handled by the store you bought from. Prices may change; a change applies from the next renewal and we tell you first.
The service is provided as it is. We do what we can to keep it working and available, but we do not promise it is uninterrupted or free of errors, nor that an estimate is right. To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for indirect damages or for the loss of a plant. Nothing here limits the rights the law gives a consumer.
If something substantial changes we write it here and in the app before it takes effect. Carrying on using LINFA accepts them; if they do not suit you, you can delete your account.
Italian law applies. If you are a consumer you may go to the court where you live.
