1. Summary
– Your diary, goals, and measurements are stored locally on your device. We do not operate an account system and we do not keep a copy of your personal data on our own servers.
– To identify foods and analyze meals, the app sends the information you request analysis on (food text, barcodes, and meal photos you choose to scan) to trusted third-party nutrition and AI services. See Section 4.
– Subscriptions are processed by Apple, not by us. We never see your card or payment details.
– We do not use advertising, tracking, or analytics tools, and we do not sell your data.
2. Information We Collect
You provide the following when you set up and use the app:
– Profile and goals: height, weight, age, gender, activity level, target weight, weight-goal type, and calculated values such as BMI and your daily calorie target.
– Diary data: foods and meals you log (name, calories, macros, quantity, time), water intake, workouts and exercise, and body measurements.
– Meal photos and barcodes: when you use “Snap Meal” or “Scan Barcode”, the app accesses your camera or photo library to capture an image or a product barcode so the food can be identified.
All of the above is stored on your device.
3. Permissions We Use
– Camera: to photograph meals and scan food barcodes.
– Photo Library: to let you choose an existing photo of a meal to analyze.
– Notifications: to send optional reminders and progress notifications. You can disable these anytime in iOS Settings.
We request each permission only when you use the related feature, and the app works without them (with those features unavailable).
4. Third-Party Services
The app sends limited data directly from your device to the following services to provide core functionality. We do not control how these providers process data; please review their policies.
– Edamam: food search and nutrition data. When you use “Snap Meal”, the meal photo you selected is sent to Edamam’s image-analysis service to estimate its nutrition. Food search terms you type are also sent to Edamam. Privacy policy: https://www.edamam.com/pages/privacy
– Anthropic (Claude AI): AI-assisted food search, meal descriptions, and insights. The food text and meal details you request analysis on are sent to Anthropic to generate a response. Privacy policy: https://www.anthropic.com/legal/privacy
– Open Food Facts: when you scan a barcode, the product barcode is sent to look up product and nutrition information. Privacy policy: https://world.openfoodfacts.org/privacy
– Apple: processes subscription purchases and delivers push notifications. Privacy policy: https://www.apple.com/legal/privacy/
We send only the data needed for the requested feature. We do not transmit your name, email, or full profile to these services, and we do not use them for advertising.
5. Analytics and Tracking
The app contains no third-party analytics, advertising, or tracking tools. We do not track you across other apps or websites, and we do not build advertising profiles. Our App Store privacy information reflects this.
6. Payments and Subscriptions
Premium is offered as auto-renewable subscriptions purchased through the Apple App Store. Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation. A subscription renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel your subscription in your Apple App Store account settings; uninstalling the app does not cancel a subscription. We do not receive or store your payment information.
7. Data Storage and Retention
Your profile, diary, and measurements are stored locally on your device and remain there until you delete them in the app or uninstall the app. Because we do not keep this data on our servers, deleting the app removes it from our reach. Data sent to the third-party services in Section 4 is retained by those providers according to their own policies.
8. Your Rights
You control your data directly:
– Access and edit: view and change any logged entry, goal, or measurement in the app.
– Delete: remove individual entries in the app, or uninstall the app to remove all locally stored data.
– Depending on your location (for example, the EEA and UK under GDPR, or California under CCPA), you may have additional rights regarding personal data.
For any request or question, contact healthydietdev@gmail.com.
9. Children’s Privacy
Diety is not intended for children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us data, contact us and we will address it.
10. Health and Nutrition Disclaimer
Diety is a self-tracking tool, not a medical service. Calorie and nutrition values are estimates and may be inaccurate. The app does not provide medical advice. Consult a qualified professional before making health, diet, or exercise decisions. Health and diet information you enter is used only to provide the app’s features and is never used for advertising or sold.
11. Data Security
We use reasonable measures to protect your information, including on-device storage and encrypted (HTTPS) connections to the services in Section 4. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure.
12. Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by updating the “Last updated” date above and, where appropriate, an in-app notice.
