Privacy Policy

1. What we collect

We only collect what we need to run Meal Snap:

• Account details such as your first name and email, or the ID Apple or Google gives us when you sign in with them.
• Meal photos and descriptions you submit to be analyzed.
• Your plan and logs: goals, age, sex, height, weight, activity level, meals, and progress.
• Apple Health data, only if you choose to connect it.
• Subscription status. Apple processes payments, so we never see your card details.
• App and device info such as app version, crash reports, and basic usage statistics.

2. How we use it

• To identify foods in your photos and estimate calories and nutrients.
• To calculate your daily targets and show your progress.
• To keep your account in sync across your devices.
• To send reminders and weekly summaries, which you can turn off anytime.
• To fix bugs, improve accuracy, and answer support requests.

We do not sell your personal information, and we do not use it for third-party advertising.

3. How photo analysis works

When you snap a meal, the photo is sent securely to our AI provider, Anthropic, to identify the foods and portions. Under our agreement with Anthropic, your photos are not used to train their models, and are retained only briefly to provide the service and monitor for misuse.

4. Who we share it with

We share data only with companies that help us run the app, and only what each one needs:

• Hosting and database: Supabase
• AI photo analysis: Anthropic
• Subscription management: RevenueCat

We may also share information if the law requires it, to protect people's safety, or as part of a merger or sale of the business, in which case this policy would still apply to your data.

5. Apple Health

If you connect Apple Health, we read and write only the data types you approve, such as weight and nutrition. Health data is never used for advertising, never sold, and never shared except as needed to provide the features you turned on. You can disconnect anytime in the Health app.

6. How long we keep it

We keep your data while your account is active. If you delete your account from Profile > Delete account, we delete your personal data, including your photos, within 30 days, except where the law requires us to keep certain records.

7. Keeping it safe

Your data is encrypted in transit and stored with providers that use industry-standard security. No system is perfectly secure, but we work to protect your information and limit who can access it.

8. Your choices and rights

You can view and edit your information in the app, turn off notifications, disconnect Apple Health, and delete your account at any time. Depending on where you live, such as the EU, UK, or California, you may also have the right to request a copy of your data, correct it, restrict how it's used, or object to certain processing. Email us to make a request.

9. Children

Meal Snap is not meant for children under 13. We don't knowingly collect information from them. If you believe a child has given us personal data, contact us and we will delete it.

10. Changes to this policy

If we make meaningful changes, we'll update the date at the top and let you know in the app before they take effect.
