Verified by GS1

The Service is intended to enable you, as a user of the Service, to query the GS1 Registry Platform for the purpose of receiving certain information related, but not limited to, products and location (“Query Results”). You are permitted to enter a maximum of 30 single queries in a twenty-four (24) hour period. This limited access and use is offered by GS1 free of charge.

All information is provided by brand owners and other third parties, and not by GS1. GS1 is not responsible for the accuracy or completeness of such information and does not endorse any of the listed items or related information.

In furtherance of GS1's quality assurance efforts, the Service may enable you to submit feedback concerning the quality of the Query Results. Such feedback is gathered by GS1 via a series of pre-defined questions and pull-down menu response options.

All Query Results are for your internal use only and you may not sell, lease, license, publish, publicise, or otherwise distribute the Query Results. This applies to non-personal information as well as to personal information. Use of personal information for marketing purposes is prohibited.

You further agree:

Not to use the Service for any purposes other than as permitted under the ToU;
Not to use the Service to store or transmit infringing, illegal, inappropriate, or otherwise unlawful material or violate any individual’s privacy rights;
Not to interfere with or disrupt the integrity or performance of the Service or third-party data contained therein;
Or not to introduce any viruses into the Service.

The Service is not intended for use, nor is it fit for purpose, in business processes related to healthcare products including design, engineering, development, and manufacturing, that are subject to regulatory requirements concerning system safety (e.g., validated or certified systems).

GS1 may prohibit you from using the Service and take measures to prevent your access to the Service if GS1 determines that you have abused your use of the Service, breached the ToU, or taken any action that is harmful, or likely to be harmful, to GS1 or other third parties.
