# Privacy Policy — AI Food Scanner
AI Food Scanner ("the App") is developed by A2R Software Solution. This
policy explains what data the App accesses and how it is used.
## No Account Required
The App does not require sign-up, login, or any personal account. You can
use all features without providing your name, email, or any personal
identity information.
## Data We Access
**Camera and Photos**
The App requests camera and gallery access solely to let you take or
select a photo of food for nutrition analysis. Photos you capture or
select are sent to our backend service, which forwards the image to a
third-party AI vision service (Groq) to identify the food and estimate
its nutritional content. Images are processed for this single purpose
and are not stored permanently on our servers.
**Health/Diet Input**
If you use the Diet Planner feature, you may enter your weight, height,
gender, and dietary preference. This information is used only to
calculate a BMI estimate and generate a diet suggestion via a third-party
AI service (Groq). This data is not linked to any personal identity and
is not shared with third parties beyond the AI service used to generate
your plan.
## Data Stored On Your Device
Scanned meal results and your most recent diet plan are stored locally
on your device using on-device storage. This data is not uploaded to any
server for long-term storage and is not accessible to us. Uninstalling
the App removes this data.
## Third-Party Services
The App uses the following third-party services to function:
- **Groq** (AI processing of food images and diet plan generation)
- **Firebase** (Google) — used to securely route requests to our AI
processing backend
These services may process data according to their own privacy policies.
## No Sale of Data
We do not sell, rent, or share your data with advertisers or third
parties for marketing purposes.
## Children's Privacy
The App is not directed at children under 13 and does not knowingly
collect data from children.
## Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy from time to time. Changes will be reflected
with an updated "Last updated" date above.
