This Privacy Policy details the policies and procedures implemented by Rahul and the team behind the ThaliCam Offline Food Detector application. It governs how we handle the collection, use, and disclosure of your information. By using the ThaliCam Offline Food Detector, you agree to these practices. Our main goal with this policy is to be transparent about how your data is managed, especially since the core functionality of the ThaliCam Offline Food Detector is designed for privacy-first, on-device processing.
The following terms, when capitalized, have specific meanings as defined below. These definitions apply regardless of whether they appear in singular or plural form.
While the ThaliCam Offline Food Detector is designed to work without an internet connection, there are situations where we may collect certain information to improve the app. The most important thing to know is that your food photos are processed locally on your device and are not uploaded to our servers. This is a core design principle of ThaliCam Offline Food Detector, a commitment Rahul and the team stand by.
Usage Data: Automatically collected data that helps us understand how the app is used. This can include information such as your device's type, operating system, and unique identifiers. This data helps us diagnose issues and enhance the ThaliCam Offline Food Detector user experience.
Information Collected while Using the Application: The main feature of ThaliCam Offline Food Detector requires access to your device's camera and photo library. With your permission, the app uses this access to perform food detection. Your photos and personal information are not transmitted to our servers for this purpose; all processing happens on your device. You have full control and can enable or disable this access at any time through your device’s settings.
The Company may use Personal Data for the following purposes:
We retain your Personal Data only as long as necessary for the purposes outlined in this policy. Given that the core function of ThaliCam Offline Food Detector is on-device, most of your data remains under your direct control. You have the right to delete your personal data at any time, which you can typically do by uninstalling the application or by reaching out to us for assistance.
The security of your Personal Data is very important to us. We strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your data. However, it's important to remember that no method of transmission or electronic storage is 100% secure. While Rahul and the team work hard to protect your data, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
The ThaliCam Offline Food Detector app is not intended for anyone under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children under this age. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with Personal Data, please contact us immediately so we can take steps to remove it.
We may update this Privacy Policy periodically. We will inform you of any changes by posting the new policy on this page. We will also provide a prominent notice within the ThaliCam Offline Food Detector app before the changes become effective. We encourage you to review this policy from time to time.
