Privacy Policy

We collect personal information you voluntarily provide when registering or using the app, including:

• Names and email addresses
• Contact or authentication data
• Social media profile data (if you sign in with Google)

We do not process sensitive personal information.

Microphone access is used solely for voice food logging. Audio is processed in real time and never stored. You may revoke microphone permission at any time in your device settings.

Our use of information obtained via Google APIs complies with the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.

We process your personal information to:

• Facilitate account creation and authentication
• Deliver and improve the Kaky service
• Send administrative communications
• Request feedback and identify usage trends
• Protect the app against fraud and abuse
• Protect an individual's vital interests when necessary

EU / UK (GDPR): We rely on Consent, Performance of a Contract, Legitimate Interests, Legal Obligations, and Vital Interests as appropriate.

Canada: We process your information based on express or implied consent, or as otherwise permitted by applicable law.

We may share your data with the following third-party service providers:

• Google Cloud AI — AI food analysis
• OpenRouter — AI platform
• Supabase — cloud infrastructure and database
• Google Sign-In — authentication

We may also share information in connection with a business transfer such as a merger or acquisition.

You must not use Kaky's AI features in violation of these providers' terms of service.

If you sign in using Google or another social account, we receive profile information (such as your name and email address) from that provider. We use this information only as described in this Privacy Policy.

We are not responsible for how third-party providers handle your data. Please review their respective privacy policies before connecting your account.

Our servers are located in the United States. If you are in the EEA, UK, or Switzerland, your data may be transferred to and processed in the US. We rely on the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses to safeguard your data during such transfers.

We retain your personal information for as long as your account is active. Voice audio is never stored — it is processed in real time and discarded immediately after analysis.

When you delete your account, your personal data is deleted or anonymized from our systems.

We implement appropriate technical and organizational security measures designed to protect your personal information. However, no internet transmission or electronic storage system is 100% secure. We encourage you to use the Services in a secure environment.

No. Kaky is not directed at children under 18, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from minors. If you believe we have inadvertently collected data from a minor, please contact us immediately at privacy@kaky.org and we will take steps to delete it.

Depending on your location, you may have the right to:

• Access the personal data we hold about you
• Correct inaccuracies in your data
• Request deletion of your data
• Withdraw consent at any time
• Request data portability
• Object to or restrict processing

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at privacy@kaky.org. EU and UK users may also lodge a complaint with their local data protection authority.

You can delete your account directly from Settings → Delete Account within the app.
