Third-Party Services & Advertising

Our Service uses third-party services to provide functionality and display advertisements. These services have their own privacy policies governing the use of your information.

Google AdSense

We use Google AdSense to display ads on some of our pages. Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to our website or other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to our sites and/or other sites on the Internet.

You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. Alternatively, you can opt out of a third-party vendor's use of cookies for personalized advertising by visiting www.aboutads.info.

Data Storage and Security

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your data:

• Location data is processed in real-time and not stored permanently
• Dietary preferences are stored locally on your device
• We use HTTPS encryption for all data transmission
• We do not create user accounts or store personal identifiers

Your Rights and Choices

You have the following rights regarding your data:

• Location Access: You can deny or revoke location permissions at any time through your device settings. The app will still function using manual location search.
• Data Deletion: Since we don't store personal data on our servers, there is no personal data to delete. Clearing your app data removes all locally stored preferences.

Children's Privacy

Our Service is not directed to children under 13 years of age. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new privacy policy on this page and updating the "Last updated" date. You are advised to review this privacy policy periodically for any changes.
