Privacy Policy

Your data stays on your device. Always. That's our promise.

AI Smart Plates

Privacy First

Your Food. Your Data. Your Device.

We use on-device Artificial Intelligence to analyze your meals locally on your iPhone. What you eat is your business, not ours.

Last Updated: December 5, 2025

This Privacy Policy describes how AI Smart Plates ("we," "us," or "our") handles your data. By using our app, you agree to the practices described below.

Data Collection & Usage

We believe the best way to protect your privacy is to collect as little data as possible.

📱 On-Device Processing
All photo analysis and food recognition happen directly on your iPhone using Apple's Neural Engine and CoreML. We do not upload your photos to the cloud. Your food diary and calendar history are stored locally on your device.
📷 Camera & Photo Library
We ask for permission to access your Camera and Photo Library solely to scan food items you select. These images are processed in real-time on your device. Once analyzed, the images remain on your device for your personal history review.

AI Coach & Health Data

The "AI Coach" feature analyzes your locally stored consumption trends to offer suggestions.

  • This analysis is performed 100% locally
  • We do not train our models on your personal data
  • Your dietary trends are never sold to advertisers or third parties

Third-Party Sharing

We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal identification information to others. Since we do not collect your personal data on our servers, we have nothing to sell.

Analytics

We may use Apple's standard, anonymous opt-in crash reporting (available via iOS Settings) to help us fix bugs. This data contains no personally identifiable information and is aggregated.

Data Retention

Because your data is stored on your device, you are in complete control. If you delete the AI Smart Plates app, all local data, including your food history and calendar logs, is permanently deleted from the device.

AI Private Notes

100% Offline AI

Your Voice. Your Thoughts. Your Privacy.

We combine Apple's Foundation Models with Google Gemma 3 to process your audio entirely on your device. No audio files or transcripts are ever sent to a server.

Effective Date: December 5, 2025

This policy outlines how AI Private Notes protects your data.

Audio & Microphone Usage

We require access to your device's microphone to record voice notes.

  • Local Recording: Audio is recorded and stored directly in the app's secure local container (Sandbox)
  • Local Transcription: We use on-device speech recognition to transcribe audio to text
  • No Cloud Uploads: We do not upload your recordings to the cloud for processing

AI & Data Processing

Our "Hybrid AI Advantage" runs complex language models locally.

  • Google Gemma 3 & Apple Foundation: These models are downloaded to your device and run on your iPhone's Neural Engine
  • Input Data: The text transcripts fed into these models for summarization never leave your phone
  • Zero Training: We do not use your notes or audio to train our AI models

Camera & Photos

If you choose to attach photos to your notes (e.g., whiteboard snapshots), we access the camera or library only to save that specific image to the note. These images are stored locally alongside your audio.

Exports & Sharing

When you use the "Pro-Level Export" features (PDF, Audio, Text), the app generates these files locally. You explicitly choose where to send or save them (e.g., to Files, AirDrop, or Email).

Data Retention

All your recordings, transcripts, and AI summaries are stored locally on your device. Deleting the app permanently removes all data from your device.
