Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy describes how Jaspreet Paul, an individual developer ("I", "me", or "my") collects, uses, stores, and shares information when you use Candy Scanner.
Information I May Collect
Depending on how you use the app, I may process an anonymous account or device identifier, profile and sugar-goal settings, food diary entries, product or meal details, photographs of food or nutrition labels, barcode information, corrections you make to scan results, app usage information, device and log data, analytics events, crash information, and support communications.
I may also receive limited information from hosting, cloud-storage, analytics, crash-reporting, security, and other service providers that help operate the app.
How Information Is Used
- Provide food, label, and barcode scanning features and generate estimated sugar information.
- Maintain your diary, goals, preferences, progress, and app settings.
- Operate, troubleshoot, secure, and improve Candy Scanner.
- Measure feature performance, diagnose errors, prevent misuse, and enforce the Terms of Use.
- Respond to support requests and communications you initiate.
- Comply with legal obligations and valid lawful requests.
AI Analysis, Photos, and Diary Content
The app may process photos, labels, barcodes, food descriptions, portion information, diary records, and related inputs to provide scanning and diary features. AI-generated estimates may be incomplete or inaccurate. Do not submit confidential information or information about another person unless you have the right to do so.
Candy Scanner does not provide medical diagnosis or professional medical or nutritional advice. Consult a qualified professional for decisions involving diabetes, allergies, eating disorders, or other health conditions.
Sharing Information
Information may be shared with vendors that support hosting, storage, analytics, AI processing, crash reporting, security, communications, and customer support. Information may also be disclosed when required by law, to protect rights or safety, during a business transaction, or with your consent.
Retention
Information is retained only for as long as reasonably needed to provide the app, maintain security, resolve disputes, comply with legal duties, and enforce agreements. Retention periods vary by the type of information and the reason it is processed. Deleting a diary entry or account may remove associated content subject to limited backups, fraud-prevention records, and legal retention requirements.
Your Choices and Rights
Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict certain personal information. The app may also provide controls to edit or delete diary entries and account data.
To submit a privacy request, contact Jaspreet Paul through the support contact provided in the app or on its App Store listing. I may need to verify your identity before completing a request.
Children
I do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If you believe a minor has provided personal information, contact me so I can investigate and delete it where appropriate.
International Transfers
Your information may be processed in countries other than the one where you reside. Where required, appropriate safeguards are used for international transfers of personal information.
Security
Reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures are used to protect information. No online service or storage system can guarantee absolute security.
Changes to This Policy
I may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The current version will be posted on this page with a revised “Last updated” date.
