TASTEME — PRIVACY POLICY
Last updated: July 15, 2026

1. WHO WE ARE

TasteMe ("we", "us", "the App") is a recipe management and meal-planning app.
This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the
choices you have.

Contact: tasteme466@gmail.com

2. INFORMATION WE COLLECT

Account information: email address and password (passwords are never stored in
plain text — they are handled by our authentication provider, Supabase Auth).
If you sign in with Google, we receive your Google account email and basic
profile info.

Profile & preferences: household size, dietary preferences, cooking goals,
preferred measurement units, and a profile photo if you choose to upload one.

Content you create: recipes you add, import, or generate (titles, ingredients,
steps, cooking times, photos); meal plans, grocery lists, cookbooks, pantry
items, and personal notes; photos or PDF files you upload for recipe import
(processed to extract recipe text — see Section 3).

Automatically collected: basic technical data needed to operate the service
(e.g. authentication tokens, backend request logs for debugging and abuse
prevention).

We do NOT collect location data, and we do NOT use third-party advertising or
analytics SDKs.

3. HOW WE USE YOUR INFORMATION, INCLUDING AI PROCESSING

We use your information to provide the App's core features: storing and
syncing your recipes, meal plans, and grocery lists; and generating
AI-assisted results you request, such as extracting a recipe from a photo,
PDF, pasted text, or link; suggesting recipes from ingredients you list;
rewriting a recipe to be healthier; estimating nutrition information; and
generating an illustrative photo for a recipe without one.

To provide these AI features, the relevant content (recipe text, or a
photo/PDF you submit) is sent to our AI processing provider, Anthropic (maker
of Claude), solely to generate the requested result. We do not use it to
profile you, and we do not sell it.

We also use:
- Pollinations.ai — image generation (receives only a short text description,
  never account details)
- YouTube Data API v3 (Google) — fetches the title/description of a video you
  choose to import a recipe from
- Supabase — backend infrastructure (database, file storage, authentication)

These providers act as processors on our behalf and receive only the minimum
needed for their specific function.

4. DATA SHARING

We do not sell your personal information. We share data only with the service
providers listed above, strictly to operate the App's features, or if required
by law.

5. DATA RETENTION & DELETION

Your content is retained for as long as your account exists. You can
permanently delete your account and all associated data at any time from
Profile > Delete Account. This is immediate and cannot be undone.

6. YOUR CHOICES & RIGHTS

You can edit or delete any content at any time, export your data as JSON from
Profile > Data Export, and delete your account entirely (Section 5). Depending
on where you live, you may have additional rights under laws such as the GDPR
or CCPA — contact us at tasteme466@gmail.com to exercise them.

7. CHILDREN'S PRIVACY

TasteMe is not directed at children under 13 (or the relevant age of consent
in your jurisdiction), and we do not knowingly collect information from
children.

8. SECURITY

We use industry-standard practices to protect your data (encrypted
connections, access controls, row-level security on our database). No system
is 100% secure, but we take reasonable steps to protect your information.

9. CHANGES TO THIS POLICY

We may update this policy from time to time and will update the "Last
updated" date above when we do. Continued use of the App after changes means
you accept the updated policy.

10. GOVERNING LAW

This policy is governed by the laws of the State of Israel.
