Effective Date: September 2024
Thank you for using the Expired Food Record app (hereinafter referred to as "the app"). We take your privacy and data security very seriously. This Privacy Policy is intended to explain how we handle your data, protect your privacy, and outline your rights when using the app.
1. Information Collection and Use
The app is designed to provide users with convenient, everyday tool functions. We do not actively collect any personally identifiable information, but we do use third-party services to collect performance data and crash logs for the purpose of improving the app's quality. Specifically:
Feature Descriptions:
Food Expiry Tracker: This feature allows users to record the name, quantity, and expiration date of food items. All data is stored locally on the user's device, and no data is collected or transmitted by the app.
2. Device Permissions
The app requires the following permissions to fully operate its features:
Camera Permission: This application may require the use of a camera to take food pictures or perform related operations. Camera access is strictly for local use, and no data from the camera is uploaded or stored.
Network Permission: The app requires network access to connect to Firebase services for collecting performance data, crash logs, and usage analytics. We do not collect or store any personal data through network permissions.
3. Data Collection and Analytics
To improve app quality and performance, the app integrates third-party services such as Firebase Analytics and Firebase Crashlytics. These services automatically collect and analyze the following data:
Crash logs
Error reports during use
Basic device information (e.g., device model, OS version)
The data is solely used for diagnosing issues and enhancing the app experience. It is not used for commercial purposes or linked to any personally identifiable information.
4. Third-Party Services
We use Firebase, a development platform provided by Google, to collect and analyze app performance data. Firebase complies with GDPR and CCPA privacy standards. The data collected by Firebase is limited to performance metrics and crash reports, used solely for improving app stability and functionality.
5. Children's Privacy
The app is not intended for users under the age of 18. If we become aware that a minor is using the app or has provided any data through the app, we will take immediate steps to delete such information. Parents and guardians are encouraged to monitor the use of the app by minors.
6. Data Security
We take appropriate technical measures to protect your data. Since most of the data generated by the app is stored locally on your device, we encourage you to take steps to ensure the security of your device. Any data collected through Firebase is protected by Google's security measures.
7. Your Rights
You can uninstall the app at any time, which will remove all locally stored data. For data collected via Firebase, users can refer to Google's privacy center to review how data is collected and how it can be deleted.
8. Changes to this Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the app or legal requirements. If any changes are made, we will provide a clear notice within the app and specify the changes in the updated version.
