Tracking & Advertising

My Food Journal may use data for advertising measurement and attribution purposes, such as understanding how users discover the app and evaluating the effectiveness of marketing campaigns.

Where required by law, we request your permission before allowing tracking across apps and websites owned by other companies. You can choose whether to allow tracking through Apple's App Tracking Transparency prompt and can change your choice at any time in your device's system settings.

Data Storage and Security

Your journal data is stored securely on our servers to enable account access, syncing across devices, and data recovery. We use reputable cloud infrastructure providers and implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your data against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.

In addition to journal content, certain non-content data such as analytics, attribution, and subscription events may be processed by our servers or trusted third-party service providers as described in this policy.

Third-Party Services

My Food Journal uses third-party services to support analytics, attribution, subscriptions, and app performance. These services may collect information such as device identifiers, app usage data, and interaction events to help us understand how the app is used, measure the effectiveness of marketing efforts, and improve the app experience.

These services may include:

  • Analytics and attribution services (e.g. to understand how users discover the app and how features are used)
  • Subscription and payment management services
  • Paywall and monetization tools
  • Crash reporting and performance monitoring services
  • Cloud infrastructure providers (if you enable sync or backup features)

These service providers act as data processors on our behalf and are obligated to handle data securely and in accordance with applicable privacy laws. We do not sell your personal data.

Data Retention

We retain your journal data for as long as you use the app and maintain an account. If you delete your account or uninstall the app, your data will be deleted in accordance with our data retention policies. Some data may be retained for a limited period for legal or operational purposes.
