Privacy Policy

Last updated: May 2026

PlateLens is built to respect your data. This page describes what we collect, why, and what we never do.

What we collect

• Account. Sign in with Apple gives us an opaque identifier (Apple's "sub" claim) and, if you choose, your name and email. We never receive your Apple ID password.
• Meals you log. Photos you submit for analysis, the macro estimates we return, and any manual edits you make. These are linked to your account so we can show your history.
• Profile. Your goal, body metrics, and cuisine preferences from onboarding. Used to calibrate macro targets.
• Subscription state. Apple sends us a transaction identifier so our backend can confirm your Pro status. We never see your card details.

What we never do

• Sell your data to anyone.
• Use your meals to train public models.
• Ship third-party tracking SDKs.
• Share data with advertisers.

HealthKit

If you grant HealthKit access, PlateLens writes your logged meals to Apple Health so other apps (Apple Fitness, your Apple Watch) can see them. Data flowing out of HealthKit stays on your device — we don't read it back to our servers.

Service providers

We use Apple (App Store, push, sign-in) and a backend that runs our cuisine-aware AI. They process data only to deliver the app and don't receive your prayer logs or profile details beyond what's required to handle the request.

Children

PlateLens is not for users under 13. We don't knowingly collect data from children. If you believe a child has signed up, contact us and we'll remove the account.

Your controls

Sign out from Settings to revoke our token. Email hello@platelens.app to request export or deletion of all data associated with your account; we respond within 30 days.
