Privacy Policy
What data we collect
At sign-up: email, name, and password (stored only as a hash, never in plain text). Temporary, expiring codes are sent for email verification and password reset.
For your personal targets: your weight, goal (lose / maintain / healthy lifestyle / nutrition), food preferences, and notification settings.
The meals you log every day — your food diary, including quantity, time, and calculated calories/macros.
Meal photos, when you use AI recognition (Premium): sent to Anthropic's Claude model solely to identify the dish. The photo isn't stored in our database by default — it's stored only if you explicitly turn on "Contribute this photo" (off by default). EXIF/GPS metadata is always stripped server-side before sending, regardless of whether the photo ends up stored.
For push notifications: your device's token, chosen language, and timezone offset.
How we use this data
Solely for the app's core functionality: calculating your daily target, showing your food history, recognizing dishes, sending notifications, and protecting your account. We don't sell or rent your data to anyone, and we don't use it for advertising.
Third parties we share data with
The following services process part of your data, for the stated purpose only, nothing more:
- Anthropic (Claude) — AI recognition of meal photos
- Resend — delivery of email verification and password reset emails
- Expo — push notification delivery
- Open Food Facts — barcode product lookup (only the code is sent, no personal data)
Data retention and account deletion
Deleting your account (Profile → Delete account) immediately and completely erases all your data — your food diary, saved dishes, photo-derived entries, and account settings. This action can't be undone.
Security
Your password is never stored in plain text. All traffic between the app and the server runs over an encrypted (HTTPS) connection.
Medical disclaimer
This is for educational purposes, not medical advice. It doesn't calculate medication doses. Kalor is a nutrition tracking tool, not a medical device. See a doctor about health concerns.
Changes to this policy
If this page changes materially, we'll let you know in the app or by email. The date above always shows the most recent update.
