GlutenLens Gluten Content AI Privacy Policy

Summary

Your screening log is stored on your device and there is no account. When you run a check, the photo is sent to our AI server, which forwards it to an AI model and does not store it. There are no ads and no analytics.

This policy covers the GlutenLens Gluten Content AI app for iPhone and iPad, published by mk0.net, an independent app studio. It is written from what the app actually does in its code. Questions: [email protected].

What we receive

Photos you choose to check pass through our AI server to the AI model and back. Our server does not store photos or results. It uses a random install ID only to limit abuse.

What stays on your device

• Your checks, verdicts, notes and optional locations are stored on this device.
• Food photos, voice notes and your profile picture are stored on this device.
• A scan credit counter and a random install ID are kept in the Keychain on this device and survive reinstalling the app.
• If you turn it on, checked photos are also saved to your Photos library.

We cannot see this data. It is not uploaded to us.

Permissions the app may ask for

• Camera: Asked when you photograph a food or label to check it.
• Photos: Asked when you pick a photo, when the app suggests food photos from your library on the device, or when it saves checked photos to Photos.
• Location: Asked only if you choose to tag where you checked a product.
• Microphone: Asked when you record a voice note. Recordings stay on the device.
• Notifications: Asked when you turn on reminders, which are scheduled on the device.

Every permission is optional and can be changed later in the iPhone Settings app. Features that need a permission you decline simply stay unavailable.

Data that leaves your device

The app talks to the following services. Each receives only what is listed, and only for the purpose shown.

• mk0.net AI service (runs on Cloudflare Workers) and OpenAI (photo identification): Only when you run a check: the resized photo, the request text, your app language and a random install ID. Their privacy policy.
• Wikipedia (Wikimedia Foundation) (background information): When a summary is shown for an identified item: the item name and your language code. Their privacy policy.
• WishKit (in-app feature request board): Only if you open the feature request board and post or vote: your request text and an anonymous ID. Their privacy policy.
• RevenueCat (subscription management): Only when you view plans, buy, restore or check a subscription: an anonymous app user ID and your App Store purchase status. Their privacy policy.

Sensitive information

Your log may reflect a medical diet such as celiac disease. It is stored only on this device. Only the photo of a check is sent for analysis, without your name or log.

Purchases

Subscriptions are sold and billed by Apple through the App Store. We never see your name, Apple ID, card or payment details. The app checks your subscription status through RevenueCat, which receives an anonymous ID and your purchase status, not your identity.

Ads, tracking and analytics

No ads, no analytics, no tracking across apps, and we never sell your data.

Account

No account needed.

Children

GlutenLens Gluten Content AI is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Keeping and deleting your data

Delete single checks in the app or clear all data in Settings. Export your log first if you want a copy. Deleting the app removes local data, though the Keychain scan counter may remain.

Your rights

Depending on where you live (for example under the GDPR, UK GDPR, CCPA or KVKK), you have the right to access, correct, export or delete your personal data. Because the app keeps your records on your own device, you can do most of this directly in the app or by deleting it. For anything else, or for data held by a service listed above, email [email protected] and we will help within 30 days.

Changes to this policy

If the app starts handling data differently, we will update this page and the date below before the change ships.
