- Push notification tokens for sending analysis results
You can enable or disable access to this information at any time, through Your Device settings.
Legal Basis for Processing (GDPR)
We process your personal data based on:
- Performance of a contract (providing the calorie tracking service)
- Your consent (for camera access and push notifications)
- Legitimate interests (service security and improvement)
Third-Party Service Providers
We use the following third-party services to operate KCALM:
- AI Service Providers (including Google Gemini, Anthropic Claude, and OpenAI): For AI-powered food image analysis and nutritional estimation. Your food photos are processed by these services to identify foods and estimate nutritional content. These providers process your data in real-time and do not retain your images or data for training purposes.
- Supabase: For secure data storage and authentication
- Expo: For push notification services
- RevenueCat: For subscription management
Automated Decision-Making & AI Transparency
KCALM uses artificial intelligence to analyze food photos and estimate nutritional information. Here's how it works:
How AI Processes Your Data
- When you photograph food, the image is sent to our AI service providers
- AI identifies the foods in the image and estimates portion sizes
- Nutritional values (calories, macros) are calculated based on this analysis
- Results are returned to you within seconds
Important Notes
- AI-generated nutritional estimates are approximations, not precise measurements
- No fully automated decisions with legal or similarly significant effects are made
- You can always manually adjust or override AI estimates
- AI analysis is used solely to provide the calorie tracking service you requested
Your Rights Regarding AI Processing
- You can request information about how AI decisions were made
- You can contest AI-generated nutritional estimates
- You can opt to manually enter food data instead of using photo analysis
Data Retention
The Company will retain Your Personal Data only for as long as is necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy.
Food photos and analysis results are retained for 90 days to allow you to review your dietary history, after which they are automatically deleted.
AI providers do not retain your food photos or data after processing.
International Data Transfers
Your personal data may be transferred to and processed in countries outside your country of residence, including:
- United States: Where our AI service providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google) operate their servers
- Australia: Where Supabase hosts our primary database
We ensure appropriate safeguards are in place:
- Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) with EU-approved terms
- Data Processing Agreements with all third-party providers
- Encryption of data in transit and at rest
Delete Your Personal Data
You have the right to delete or request that We assist in deleting the Personal Data that We have collected about You.
You may update, amend, or delete Your information at any time by signing in to Your Account and visiting the account settings section. You may also contact Us to request access to, correct, or delete any personal information that You have provided to Us.
Security
We implement the following security measures:
- Encrypted data transmission (HTTPS)
- Secure authentication through Supabase
- Row Level Security (RLS) policies to ensure users can only access their own data
- Regular security audits
- AI service providers maintain SOC 2 compliance
