PikaNini ("we", "our", "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and share your personal information when you use the PikaNini mobile application. By using the App, you agree to the practices described in this policy.
2. Information We Collect
We collect the following categories of information:

- Profile and preferences: dietary preferences, allergies, cooking skill level, household size, and meal goals you set during onboarding.
- Meal data: cook/buy decisions, meal names, estimated costs, location (if permitted), food group tags, and timestamps.
- Scan data: images you submit for AI scanning and the resulting analysis.
- Usage data: feature interactions, session length, and in-app navigation patterns.

4. Data Storage and Security
Your data is stored securely on Supabase-hosted PostgreSQL databases with row-level security enabled. All data is transmitted over HTTPS. Passwords are hashed and never stored in plain text. We apply industry-standard security practices, but no system is completely secure.

Each third party has its own privacy policy and data practices.
6. Data Sharing

7. Data Retention
We retain your data for as long as your account is active. You may request deletion of your account and associated data at any time by contacting us. Aggregated, anonymised analytics data may be retained indefinitely.
