Introduction:
Welcome to Spoon! At Spoon, we are committed to safeguarding your privacy. This Privacy Policy outlines the types of information we collect, how we utilize it, and the steps we take to protect your personal data.
Collection of Information:
We collect information directly from you when you engage with our app. This may include the following types of data:
Personal Information: Such as your name, email address, and other contact details.
We use this data to enhance your experience, personalizing the app to support your individual nutrition journey and objectives. Every feature and recommendation is designed with your health and wellness goals in mind, offering a tailored and intuitive approach.
Data We Do Not Collect or Retain:
We value your privacy and only collect the data necessary to provide you with an optimized experience. The following types of data are not collected or stored by Spoon:
Photos of Your Meals:
While you may take and use photos of your meals for logging, we do not store any meal photos. Any photos you take are processed locally on your device and used temporarily to identify the food. The photos are not uploaded or retained by Spoon.
Sensitive Personal Information:
We do not collect sensitive information such as your social security number, credit card details (unless directly used for payment via third-party providers), or any financial data.
Health Data Not Provided by You:
While we track basic nutritional data related to your food entries, we do not collect detailed personal health data (such as medical records) unless explicitly provided by you (e.g., allergies, specific medical conditions).
Location Data (Optional):
We do not actively track or store your geographic location. Any location data is only used if you choose to share it for specific features (e.g., finding nearby food items or restaurants) and is not stored long-term.
AI Nutritional Estimates:
At Spoon, we use advanced artificial intelligence (AI) to help you track your meals and nutrition. When you log a meal, our AI works behind the scenes to estimate its nutritional content based on food benchmarks and databases. While we strive to provide accurate results, it's important to keep in mind:
AI-Based Estimates:
The AI uses information you provide, such as food type, ingredients, and portion sizes, to offer a helpful nutritional estimate. This helps you better understand the nutritional value of your meals.
Accuracy Range:
The AI estimates are generally 80% to 90% accurate, depending on factors like the specifics of your meal and ingredient variations. While we aim for precision, there may be small differences from the actual nutritional values.

We prioritize the protection of your data. For detailed information on how we protect your data in compliance with industry standards, refer to the following resources:
