Terms & Conditions
These Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) govern your use of our website and mobile app (“Services”). By accessing or using our Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, you must not use our Services.

1. About Us
YarnPixel is operated by YarnPixel.com, based in the United Kingdom. For any questions about these Terms, please contact us at: [email protected]
2. Use of Our App and Website
The YarnPixel app allows users to pick colours from images, generating a hexadecimal (#) colour value. The app then compares this value against our catalogue of yarn products to suggest potential yarn matches.
Please note:
-
Catalogue Limitation: Our yarn catalogue includes only yarn products we have colour-sampled. If a closer match exists outside of our catalogue, it will not be included in the results.
-
Colour Representation: Yarn colours can vary significantly due to factors such as dye batches, yarn composition, manufacturing processes, lighting conditions, camera equipment, and intentional product designs (e.g., tweed, variegated yarns).
-
Image Limitations: Colours picked from user-uploaded or captured images may not reflect real-world colours accurately due to lighting, camera settings, or other variables.
-
Data Accuracy: While we work to ensure our product information is accurate, manufacturers may change specifications or discontinue products without notice. We make no warranties regarding the ongoing accuracy of catalogue data.
3. Disclaimers
-
No Warranties: The Services are provided “as is” and “as available” without any warranties of any kind, either express or implied.

No Liability: We are not liable for any decisions, purchases, or actions taken by users based on the information or suggestions presented in the app or website.
