How Information Is Stored and Shared

Your data may be stored locally on your device and, where applicable, synchronized with our backend infrastructure to support account access, syncing, and subscription entitlement checks.

We may share information with service providers that support core app functionality, such as:

• Authentication providers
• Cloud database and backend infrastructure providers
• Apple, for subscription and payment processing

We do not sell your personal information.

Tracking and Advertising

Nutrition Mate is not designed as an advertising platform. Based on the current app design, we do not use your health or nutrition data for third-party advertising.

If this changes in the future, this Privacy Policy will be updated accordingly.

Permissions

The app may request access to:

These permissions are optional, but certain features will not work without them.

Data Retention

We retain your information for as long as needed to provide the app and maintain your account, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements.

If you stop using the app, some information may remain in backups or records for a limited period where reasonably necessary.

Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures to protect your information. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Children's Privacy

Nutrition Mate is not intended for children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

Your Choices

Depending on your location, you may have rights to:

• Access your information
• Correct inaccurate information
• Request deletion of your information
• Withdraw certain permissions on your device

You can also manage subscription billing and cancellation through your Apple account settings.

International Use

If you use the app outside the country where our services are operated, your information may be processed in other jurisdictions where privacy laws may differ.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we will update the effective date above and, where appropriate, provide additional notice.
