Meedo Privacy Policy

Last updated: October 2026

1. Who we are

"We" means the developer of Meedo. There is no advertising. We store only your Meedo account details and what is needed to check a Pro subscription and count your daily uses.

2. What the app handles

• Your meals — what you ate, how much, the calories and nutrients for it, the time, a note if you add one, an icon, and the photo if you took one.
• Your weight — the readings you log and when you took them.
• Your body details — height, weight, age and sex, used for your daily calorie budget and BMI.
• Apple Health — today's activity, steps and workouts (see §7).
• Your subscription — whether Meedo Pro is active.
• Your account — if you sign in with Apple, the account identifier, email and name Apple shares with us (see §6).

None of it is used for advertising, and we build no profile of you.

3. Where your records live

In the app on your iPhone. iCloud sync is on by default, so a copy is also kept in your iCloud under your Apple ID: Apple encrypts it, only your own devices can read it, and we never receive it.

Two Apple accounts on one iPhone keep separate records.

Your body details are a setting and stay on this iPhone; they are never synced. We have no database of what you ate.

4. When your phone talks to our server

• Recognising a meal — the photo or the words you wrote are sent so the meal can be estimated. They are not stored.
• Looking up a barcode — the code is sent so the package can be found. Nothing about the lookup is stored.
• Signing in or out with Apple.
• Buying or restoring Meedo Pro — so Apple's proof of purchase can be checked.
• Deleting your account (see §8).

5. Services we rely on

• A recognition service that turns your photo or words into an estimate. It receives only what you sent — no name, no email, no account.
• Apple, for signing in, purchases and iCloud.

6. Signing in, and what your account holds

Signing in is optional. Everything works without an account except recognition, barcode lookup and Meedo Pro.

When you sign in with Apple we receive an identifier for your Apple account, the email address Apple shares (a private relay address, if you chose one) and the name you let Apple share. The account also counts how many recognitions you have used today, so the daily allowance can be applied.

Nothing about your meals, your weight or your body is part of it. You can sign out whenever you like.

7. Apple Health

• Read — today's activity, steps and workouts, to add your exercise to the day's budget.
• Written only if you turn it on (Settings → Write meals and weight to Health, off by default) — the meals and weight you log. We never read it back.
• Health data is never uploaded to us and never shared with anyone.
• If a record wrote something to Health, editing or deleting it takes that back too.
• Nothing runs in the background: Health is read only when you open the app or pull to refresh.
• You can turn it off at any time in the Health app.

8. Your permissions and your control

• Camera — for photographing a meal or scanning a barcode.
• Photos — one picture at a time, chosen by you. Sharing an entry can save the picture back to your library.
• Health — see §7.
• Delete a record — in the app, or by swiping it away.
• Delete everything — Settings → Delete all entries removes your food and weight records, their photos, what they wrote to Health and the copies in iCloud. Your body details and your plan are settings and stay.
• Delete your account — Settings → Delete account closes the account on our servers and clears your name and email, and every device signed in stops working. It also removes the records, photos and iCloud copies from this iPhone. Your App Store subscription is not cancelled — cancel it in the App Store.

9. Children

The app is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their information.

10. How long we keep things

• Your records and photos — until you delete them.
• Your body details — on this iPhone only.
• What you send to be recognised — not kept.
• Your account — for as long as it exists.
• Your purchase history — for as long as the account exists, because Apple's programme and our accounting require it.

11. Your rights

Your records live on your device, so you can view, correct, export and delete them there. The account data we hold is listed in §6, and you can close the account in Settings. We never sell your data and never share it for advertising.

Where GDPR or a similar law applies: reading Health and syncing to iCloud rest on your consent; the account and the purchase record are what we need to give you the app. You can ask us through Settings → Send feedback for access, correction, erasure or a copy of your data, and you can complain to your supervisory authority.

12. Security

Your connection to our server is encrypted, and the copy of your records in iCloud can be read only by your own devices.

The app contains no advertising, analytics or crash-reporting services. The home-screen widget shows only the day's totals.

13. Changes

A new version of this policy is published on this page with a new date. Material changes are described here, and in what's new for the app update that brings them.

14. Contact

Settings → Send feedback in the app, or email [email protected].
