Introduction

Welcome to DinePick ("we," "our," or "us"). We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal data. This privacy policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your information when you use our mobile application.

Information We Collect

Menu Photos

When you use DinePick to scan a restaurant menu, we process the photos you submit. Menu text is extracted on-device using OCR. The extracted text may be sent to our servers for AI analysis against your dietary profile. Photos are not stored permanently on our servers.

Dietary Profile

Your dietary restrictions, allergies, and preferences are stored locally on your device. This information is used to personalize your menu analysis results.

Usage Data

We may collect anonymous usage statistics to improve our app, including features used, session duration, and app performance metrics. This data does not personally identify you.

How We Use Your Information

• To analyze restaurant menus against your dietary profile
• To provide personalized Safe, Caution, and Avoid ratings
• To generate questions to ask your server
• To save confirmed safe orders for future visits

Data Security

We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your data. Menu photos are encrypted in transit and processed securely. We do not sell, trade, or share your personal data with third parties.

Data Retention

Menu photos submitted for analysis are deleted immediately after processing. Your dietary profile and saved restaurants are stored locally on your device. You may delete your data at any time through the app settings.
