About This Policy

This privacy policy applies to the TrustFoodie app for mobile devices, created by CoreEaseDigital as a free service with optional in-app purchases. This service is intended for use "AS IS".

By using TrustFoodie, you agree to the collection and use of information as described in this policy. We are committed to protecting your privacy and being fully transparent about how we operate.

Information We Collect

The Application collects certain information when you use it. This includes:

IP Address
Your device's Internet Protocol address for network communication purposes.
Food Photos
Photos of food ingredient labels or barcodes you capture in the app, transmitted securely to Google Gemini AI for analysis and deleted immediately after.
Dietary Preferences
Your selected dietary requirements stored locally on your device only. We do not have access to this data.
Purchase Information
If you subscribe to TrustFoodie Pro, your subscription status and anonymous user identifier are processed by RevenueCat and Google Play. We do not store or have access to your payment details.

๐Ÿ“ The Application does not collect or track your precise geographic location at any time.

How We Use AI

TrustFoodie uses Google Gemini AI to power its core ingredient analysis feature. When you capture a photo of a food label or barcode, that image is securely transmitted to Google's Gemini API for processing.

Ingredient Analysis
Photos are sent to Google Gemini to read and interpret ingredient lists, generating health grades, summaries, and dietary suitability assessments.
Barcode Scanning
If a barcode is detected, Gemini identifies the product and provides analysis based on known ingredient data for that product.
AI Chat Assistant
Follow-up questions about scanned products are processed through Google Gemini to provide informed, contextual responses.
Product Comparison
When comparing products, scanned product data is sent to Google Gemini to determine the healthiest option based on your dietary preferences.
Photo Handling
Photos are deleted immediately after analysis. They are never stored, shared with third parties, or used beyond generating your ingredient result.
โš  AI Disclaimer

While Google Gemini AI is highly capable, it may occasionally misread text or misinterpret ingredients โ€” particularly from blurry, angled, or poorly lit photos. Barcode-based analysis relies on the AI's knowledge base and may not always reflect the most current product formulation. TrustFoodie is an informational tool only and should not replace professional medical, dietary, or allergy advice. Always verify critical information directly from the product packaging.

In-App Purchases

TrustFoodie offers an optional subscription called TrustFoodie Pro, which provides an ad-free experience and increased daily AI chat message limits. Subscriptions are processed through Google Play and managed via RevenueCat.

Payment Processing
All payments are handled securely by Google Play. We never receive, store, or have access to your credit card details, billing address, or other payment information.
Subscription Management
RevenueCat is used to verify your subscription status and manage entitlements. RevenueCat receives an anonymous user identifier and your purchase history from Google Play to determine your subscription status.
Cancellation
You can cancel your subscription at any time through the Google Play Store or from the Settings page within the app. Access to Pro features continues until the end of your current billing period. No refunds are provided for partial billing periods.

๐Ÿ’ณ Your payment information is handled entirely by Google Play. CoreEaseDigital never sees or stores your financial details.

Promo Codes

TrustFoodie offers promotional codes that grant temporary access to TrustFoodie Pro features. When you redeem a promo code, the app connects to Firebase Realtime Database to validate the code.

What We Send
Only the promo code text you enter is sent to Firebase for validation. No personal information, device identifiers, or account data is transmitted.
What We Store
A record of which codes you have used and your Pro access expiry date are stored locally on your device only. We do not track individual users or link code usage to personal identities.
Usage Counter
Firebase maintains an anonymous counter of how many times each code has been redeemed. This counter contains no user-identifying information.

๐ŸŽŸ๏ธ Promo code validation is fully anonymous. We never know who redeemed a code โ€” only how many times it has been used.
