This Privacy Policy describes how Calorie Genie AI ("we", "us", "our"), operated by Digital Souls Studios LTD, collects, uses, stores, and protects personal information when you use our website, mobile application, and related services (collectively, the "Service").
1. Information we collect
1.1 Information you provide
- Account information (such as name, email address, and password)
- Profile and wellness information you choose to share (such as age, sex, height, weight, activity level, dietary preferences, alcohol intake, smoking status, liked and disliked foods, hydration goals, and health-related goals)
- Meal logs, manual entries, weigh-ins, water intake logs, and content you submit for tracking or analysis
- Photos or images you upload for meal recognition, calorie estimation, or related features
- Billing and subscription details when you purchase a paid plan (processed by our payment partners; we do not store full payment card numbers)
- Communications with customer support
1.2 Information we collect automatically
- Usage data (features used, actions taken, timestamps, and crash or diagnostic logs)
- Device and operating system information
- IP address and general location derived from your connection
- Cookies and similar technologies on our website
- Mobile app analytics and attribution data (such as install source, campaign performance, and in-app events) through our measurement partners
1.3 Mobile app analytics and attribution (AppsFlyer)
We use AppsFlyer to measure app installs, campaign performance, and in-app events. AppsFlyer may process device identifiers, app activity, IP-derived approximate location, and technical data for analytics, attribution, fraud prevention, and advertising measurement. When you are signed in, we may associate your account with a customer user identifier so measurement is consistent across devices and platforms. AppsFlyer's processing is governed by its own privacy practices; see AppsFlyer's Privacy Policy.
1.4 Information from third-party sign-in
If you sign in with Apple, Google, or another supported provider, we receive information that provider shares with us (such as a unique account identifier and, where permitted, your name or email address) in accordance with that provider's policies and your choices.
2. How we use your information
We use your information to:
- Provide, operate, and improve Calorie Genie AI
- Estimate nutrition information, personalize goals, and deliver insights based on your inputs
- Authenticate your identity and manage your account
- Process subscriptions and communicate about billing
- Send service-related messages and respond to support requests
- Monitor security, prevent abuse, and debug technical issues
- Measure app installs, marketing campaigns, and in-app engagement through analytics and attribution partners such as AppsFlyer
- Comply with legal obligations and enforce our terms
3. AI and automated processing
Some features use automated systems, including artificial intelligence provided by OpenAI, to analyze meal descriptions, photos, or other content you submit. This includes meal photo recognition, text-based food analysis, and AI coach meal tips. Outputs are estimates for informational purposes only and are not medical advice. Relevant content may be sent to OpenAI to operate these features, under contractual safeguards where applicable.
4. Sharing of information
We do not sell your personal information. We may share your information with:
- OpenAI - to analyze meal photos, text descriptions, and provide AI coach features
- Cloudflare R2 - to store meal photos you upload in production
- Mailjet - to deliver transactional and service-related emails (such as welcome messages, password resets, and optional follow-up emails described below)
- RevenueCat - to manage in-app subscriptions purchased through the Apple App Store or Google Play
- AppsFlyer - for install attribution, campaign measurement, and in-app event analytics
- Sign-in providers you choose to connect (such as Apple or Google)
- App store platforms when required for subscriptions or account management
- Other service providers who help us host infrastructure and operate the Service, under appropriate contractual safeguards
- Authorities, regulators, or other parties when required by law or to protect our rights, users, or safety
5. Health-related data
Information you enter about your body, habits, or goals may be sensitive. We treat it carefully and use it only to provide and improve the Service, unless you consent otherwise or we are required to use it for another lawful purpose. Calorie Genie AI is not a medical device and does not provide clinical diagnosis or treatment.
6. Data storage and security
We use industry-standard security practices to protect your data. Meal photos uploaded in production are stored in Cloudflare R2 and are deleted when you delete your account. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure; we take appropriate technical and organizational measures to reduce the risk of unauthorized access, loss, or misuse.
7. Marketing communications
We may send you a limited number of service-related follow-up emails after you sign up or cancel a subscription, to help you get started or return to the Service. These are not unrelated promotional blasts. Every such email includes an unsubscribe link. If you opt out, we will stop sending marketing follow-up emails but may still send important transactional messages (such as password resets).
8. Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:
- Access, correct, or delete your personal information
- Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent
- Request a copy of your data in a portable format
- Object to or restrict certain processing
- Lodge a complaint with a data protection authority
To exercise these rights, contact us at support@calorie-genie.com.
9. Cookies and tracking
Our website may use cookies and similar technologies to operate the site, remember preferences, and understand usage. You can manage cookies through your browser settings.
10. Third-party services
The Service may link to or integrate with third-party services (such as app stores, payment processors, sign-in providers, or mobile measurement partners). Your use of those services is governed by their own privacy policies and terms. Our mobile app uses AppsFlyer for install attribution, campaign measurement, and in-app event analytics as described in section 1.3 above.
11. Data retention
We retain your personal data for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the Service, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. You may delete your account and associated data at any time in the app (Profile → Delete account) or by contacting us at support@calorie-genie.com.
12. Children
Calorie Genie AI is not directed at children under 13 (or the minimum age required in your country). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children below that age. If you believe we have done so, contact us and we will take appropriate steps to delete it.
13. International transfers
Your information may be processed in countries other than where you live. Where required, we use appropriate safeguards for cross-border transfers.
14. Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The revised policy will be posted on this page with a new effective date. Continued use of the Service after changes take effect means you accept the updated policy, unless applicable law requires otherwise.
