Privacy Policy

Effective date: October 18, 2026

SJL Craig LLC (“BareVue,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) provides the BareVue mobile application, the barevue.app website, support, and related services. This Privacy Policy explains what information BareVue and its providers use, why they use it, who receives it, how long it is kept, and your choices.

This general policy covers the mobile app, the website and support services, and product-contribution services, which have different data practices described separately below. BareVue also maintains separate consumer-health- data notices for disclosures and rights required by Washington and Nevada law.

1. The Short Version

  • BareVue is local-first. Most profile, nutrition, health, recipe, supplement, symptom, and logging information is stored on your device by default. It may be included in an Apple or Google device backup, depending on your platform and device-backup settings.

  • Some features and app services require information to leave your device, including account authentication, nutrition-standard calculations, catalog searches, optional cloud sync, subscriptions, security checks, analytics, crash reporting, rewarded advertising, Recipe Import, and voluntary product contributions.

  • Cloud sync is optional. Turning it off stops future ordinary synchronization but does not automatically delete information already stored in BareVue’s cloud systems.

  • BareVue does not send the health information, food logs, symptoms, dependent-profile information, pregnancy information, searches, scans, or other content you enter in the app to advertising systems for ad targeting. A rewarded-ad request can identify the broad category of benefit requested, but BareVue does not attach the more specific feature or activity that led to the request.

  • The app provides separate controls for optional sync, Usage Analytics, crash reporting, and Google privacy choices where applicable.

  • Files you export, share, print, or back up through another provider are then also governed by the destination you selected.

2. Who May Hold a BareVue Account

Everyone who creates or uses a BareVue account must be at least 18. Before Apple or Google sign-in, you must confirm that you are at least 18, agree to the Terms of Use, and acknowledge this Privacy Policy.

An account holder may authorize another adult member of the same household to operate the account on another supported device. An authorized adult operator may be able to view, add, change, export, or delete information available through that account, including information for its profiles. The account holder remains responsible for deciding who receives access and should share account access only with adults they trust.

An adult account holder may create and manage dependent profiles for people of any age. The account holder controls the information stored for those profiles.

Dependent-profile information is provided and managed through the adult account holder rather than collected directly from the dependent. Requests concerning that information are handled through the adult account holder, subject to any verification of identity or authority required by law.

3. Information BareVue Handles

Account and authentication information

BareVue uses Apple or Google sign-in and Supabase authentication. Depending on the provider and information available, this can include:

  • your email address;
  • your name and profile image;
  • the provider’s account identifier;
  • a BareVue account identifier;
  • authentication tokens and session information; and
  • ordinary security and request information such as IP address, device or browser information, and sign-in events.

BareVue uses this information to create and secure your account, keep accounts separate, support account deletion, and provide authenticated services.

BareVue keeps a record of your legal acceptance: your BareVue account identifier, the associated Apple or Google account identifier and/or verified email, selected country and language, document and confirmation versions, and the time recorded by our server. We use it when reasonably needed for a verified privacy or legal matter to establish what you accepted.

This record is separate from advertising and Usage Analytics choices. It does not contain profile, health, nutrition, food-log, payment, advertising, or device-tracking content.

Profiles, nutrition, and health-related information

Information you choose to store can include:

  • profile names, birth dates or ages, sex, height, and activity level;
  • weight, body composition, and related measurements;
  • nutrition targets, food logs, nutrient intake, recipes, and supplements;
  • pregnancy, lactation, menstrual, and reproductive information;
  • symptoms, bowel movements, food-mood entries, and elimination-diet records;
  • preferences and display settings; and
  • information about dependent profiles managed by the adult account holder.

Core logging and profile information is stored in the app’s local database by default. BareVue uses it to provide the features you request, personalize nutrition calculations and displays, generate reports, and maintain your local records.

Camera, barcode, and OCR information

Barcode scanning, nutrition-label recognition, and contribution-photo capture use the device camera only when you initiate those features. Camera frames, barcode recognition, and OCR text are processed on the device for ordinary scanning and label-capture workflows. A contribution photo leaves the device only if you choose to submit the contribution described in Section 9.

BareVue does not currently access precise device location, contacts, Apple HealthKit, Google Health Connect, or body-sensor data.

On Android, Google Play Services may download machine-learning models needed for barcode or text recognition. Google states that ML Kit processes input images and text on-device and does not send that input or its results to Google servers. The SDK can still collect technical data such as device and app information, identifiers, performance metrics, API configuration, input and output size, feature events, and error codes for diagnostics and usage analytics.

Device and application information

BareVue and its service providers can process information such as:

  • device type, operating-system version, app version, build, and language;
  • installation or app-instance identifiers;
  • session, performance, diagnostic, and crash information;
  • network information and IP-derived approximate region; and
  • security and app-integrity signals.

The exact information depends on the feature and provider described below.

4. Local Storage, Optional Sync, and Device Backups

Local-first storage

Most BareVue records remain in a database and preferences on your device. Local information generally remains until you delete the relevant entry or profile, delete or replace the app’s data, uninstall the app in a way that removes its data, or restore an older operating-system backup.

Recent barcode scan history is saved on your device, separately from your BareVue account. It can remain after sign-out or an account change until you clear that history or remove the app’s data.

Product and recipe images may be cached on your device until the app clears the cache or you remove the app’s data.

Optional cloud sync

Eligible subscribers may choose to synchronize selected account, profile, nutrition, health, recipe, and preference information through Supabase. BareVue uses this information to provide cross-device continuity and restoration.

Turning sync off pauses ordinary future synchronization. It does not automatically delete information that has already been synchronized. Deleting the relevant profile or BareVue account is a separate action.

Apple and Google device backups

Depending on your platform and device-backup settings, Apple or Google may include BareVue’s primary local database and preferences in a device backup. BareVue configures which app files are eligible, but BareVue does not receive, open, or control your Apple or Google device-backup account.

Deleting information from BareVue does not guarantee immediate deletion from an older operating-system backup. A later restoration can restore information that was present when that backup was created.

5. Feature-Specific Network Processing

Nutrition standards

To select a profile’s nutrition standard, BareVue sends only the necessary details to its service hosted by Supabase: a persistent profile identifier, birth date, sex, the requested standard, and pregnancy, lactation or trimester information when applicable.

The service keeps the account and profile identifiers, birth date, sex, timestamps and whether the birth date has been corrected. It uses this record to apply consistent age- and sex-specific targets and the birth-date correction rule. This record is separate from optional cloud sync and does not contain your food log.

Catalog searches and product lookups

Catalog and search requests can include the search text or barcode, market, language or locale, authentication information, app version, and sometimes an app-integrity check. BareVue, Cloudflare, Typesense, Open Food Facts, and the relevant catalog source may process those requests.

Search and catalog services do not receive the active profile’s health history or food log merely because a search is performed. Images and informational content can be loaded from BareVue or the source provider that hosts them.

When Usage Analytics is enabled, supported reference-food text searches also produce separate search statistics for BareVue, as described in Section 6. Turning that choice off stops those statistics; it does not prevent ordinary catalog searches from being processed to return the results you requested.

Recipe Import

When you provide a recipe URL, your device contacts that website to download the page you requested. The website receives ordinary network information, including your IP address and a user agent. BareVue can store the source URL with the imported recipe and can later load an image supplied by that website. The external website controls its own logs and privacy practices.

Security and app integrity

BareVue uses Apple App Attest or Google Play Integrity for selected security- sensitive operations. Apple or Google receives app and device integrity material, and BareVue receives a verification result tied to the protected request. BareVue does not put profile, food-log, symptom, reproductive, OCR, barcode, or search content in those integrity requests.

To protect BareVue’s catalogs from automated collection and other misuse, BareVue keeps security records of catalog requests linked to your account and sign-in, such as the type and time of each request and whether it was served or limited. These records don’t include what you searched for, scanned or viewed, or any health information. If an account’s activity goes far beyond normal use, BareVue may suspend it, automatically or after review. You can contact support to ask for a review.

6. Usage Analytics and Crash Reporting

BareVue treats Usage Analytics and Crash Reporting as separate services and provides a separate Settings control for each one.

Usage Analytics

The Share which features you use choice in Settings controls both Firebase Usage Analytics and BareVue’s separate food-search statistics. You can turn the choice off without disabling food search or other app features. It does not change the separate Crash Reporting, notification, sync, or advertising controls. Turning it off stops future collection; it does not automatically erase statistics already received, which follow Section 15.

Firebase Usage Analytics

BareVue uses Firebase Analytics to improve the app’s design and reliability. Events defined by BareVue use preset labels for screens, activities, results and errors. We do not intentionally include account identifiers, profile identifiers, food logs, health records, symptoms, pregnancy information, searches, barcode values, OCR text, or other user-entered content in those events.

Firebase still processes pseudonymous app-instance, device, app, session, approximate-geography, app-open, and related technical information. This data is pseudonymous, not anonymous.

Firebase Usage Analytics runs only when both your BareVue setting and Google’s regional privacy process permit it. The BareVue setting is on by default where neither Google consent nor a separate BareVue opt-in is required. If a required Google decision is unavailable or denies collection, Firebase Analytics stays off for that session.

If your selected country is South Korea, the shared Usage Analytics choice starts off and remains off unless you give the separate optional consent. You can choose this during setup before sign-in or later in Settings after reviewing the details. Saying no does not prevent sign-in or other features. Turning the choice off withdraws that optional analytics consent and stops both Firebase Usage Analytics and BareVue food-search statistics. Firebase still requires permission from Google’s regional process even after you opt in.

BareVue food-search statistics

BareVue uses a separate service hosted by Cloudflare to improve reference-food search in the Nutrition screen’s Food tab. When your Usage Analytics choice allows it and search statistics are enabled, the service receives your search text in a standardized form, language, market and result-ordering information, whether filters were used, the result count and outcome, and public food identifiers and list positions for results you opened. It also records whether you then logged a result, a search-record identifier, and the app version, build and platform.

These records exclude account and profile identifiers, filter values, portion sizes and your full food log. Your signed-in account authorizes the request, but its identifier and sign-in credentials are not saved with the statistics. Search text remains in both individual records and daily summaries. BareVue does not send this text to Firebase Analytics.

The collector uses your BareVue Usage Analytics choice independently of Google’s Firebase Analytics permission. The South Korean opt-in described above applies to both. Other search destinations, including product discovery, product and supplement tabs, barcode lookups, and private/custom-food searches, do not produce these search-statistics observations.

Crash Reporting

BareVue uses Firebase Crashlytics to diagnose crashes and serious errors. Reports can include a stack trace showing where the app failed, app and device information, an installation identifier, and other technical details. Reports controlled by BareVue use preset issue labels instead of original error messages; crash reports retain the technical stack trace. Google’s own crash collection can still include original error details, stack traces and crash files. BareVue does not intentionally attach user-entered health content.

Crash Reporting is enabled by default. You can disable it separately in BareVue Settings. Google documents an approximately 90-day service-retention window for Crashlytics reports, minidumps, and associated identifiers before deletion from live and backup systems begins.

7. Rewarded Advertising and Google Privacy Choices

BareVue may request and prepare a rewarded ad in advance for an eligible free account so it is available when needed. BareVue displays the ad only after you choose the Watch Ad action to unlock a specified feature or operation.

Google Mobile Ads, Google’s User Messaging Platform, and authorized advertising buyers can process advertising and device information such as:

  • IP address and IP-derived approximate location;
  • device, operating-system, app, and language information;
  • the configured rewarded-ad unit, which identifies the broad category of benefit requested;
  • on Android, the resettable advertising ID when available, an App Set ID that can recognize apps published by BareVue on that device, and other device or account identifiers that Google says may apply;
  • a Google-generated identifier scoped to BareVue’s apps, which can recognize activity within BareVue but is not an identifier shared across unrelated publishers’ apps;
  • ad requests, impressions, interactions, diagnostics, and fraud signals; and
  • the consent or privacy-choice state managed by Google where applicable.

BareVue does not request Apple’s App Tracking Transparency permission and does not use IDFA-based tracking. BareVue also keeps Firebase-to-AdMob Analytics enrichment and Google User Insight Surveys disabled.

Where no applicable consent choice is required, Google may personalize ads using the advertising information available to it. Where consent is required, personalization begins only after the required consent. After refusal, BareVue requests non-personalized or otherwise limited ads where permitted. When Google requires a Privacy Options entry, BareVue provides access to Google’s form in Settings.

Google can distinguish the broad category of benefit requested from the configured ad unit. BareVue does not attach the more specific feature or activity that led to the request. BareVue also does not attach the nutrition, health, pregnancy, dependent-profile, food-log, symptom, search, barcode, OCR, or other content you enter in BareVue for ad targeting.

To confirm an ad reward, Google sends BareVue a confirmation linked to a code for that reward attempt. BareVue keeps the verified record for approximately 24 to under 48 hours. It does not include your email address, advertising identifier, profile, nutrition, or health content.

8. Subscriptions and Purchases

BareVue uses RevenueCat and the Apple App Store or Google Play to offer and manage subscriptions. Apple or Google processes the payment method used for the purchase. BareVue and RevenueCat receive the purchase and subscription information needed to manage access, which can include:

  • a RevenueCat customer identifier linked to the BareVue account identifier;
  • store product, transaction, receipt, subscription, and paid-feature access information;
  • device, app, and operating-system information; and
  • IP-derived country or region.

BareVue receives information about which subscription features you can use. Apple, Google, and RevenueCat control their own payment and transaction records. BareVue and RevenueCat do not receive the payment-method credentials, such as a card number or security code, that you provide to the store.

9. Voluntary Product Contributions

When you voluntarily submit a food or supplement product contribution, BareVue can receive:

  • your authenticated account identifier and session;
  • product name, brand, barcode, category, country, market, language, claims, ingredients, and other label text;
  • app version and build information;
  • front-label, ingredient, nutrition, supplement-facts, or other label images; and
  • the applicable photo or submission acknowledgement.

BareVue does not include your private profile, food log, symptoms, pregnancy information, dependent-profile information, or nutrition history merely because you submit a product contribution.

BareVue may retain and use submitted product information and images to review submissions, prevent abuse, improve and maintain product databases, and publish information in BareVue or third-party product databases. Catalog information derived from a contribution may remain independently of your account, including after account deletion.

Food contributions can be forwarded to Open Food Facts with a stable pseudonymous contributor identifier derived from the BareVue account identifier. BareVue currently uses temporary Cloudflare queue and object storage for that delivery and makes a best-effort attempt to delete the temporary job after successful delivery. Open Food Facts controls information after it receives and publishes it.

Supplement contributions are stored by BareVue and Cloudflare. Original product photos, submitted product details and product correction notes are kept as evidence for reviewing contributions and maintaining and verifying the catalog, without a fixed retention period.

Deleting your account removes the account identifier linked to your supplement submissions. This product evidence may remain after account deletion, subject to applicable privacy rights.

Contributions are final within BareVue’s product workflow. After submission, BareVue does not provide an in-app tool to edit or withdraw a contribution. Separate contributor terms govern the rights BareVue receives to use, modify, publish, distribute, sublicense, and incorporate contributed content. This product rule does not limit privacy rights that apply under applicable law.

10. Website and Support

Website operation

BareVue uses Cloudflare to deliver and protect barevue.app. Cloudflare can process ordinary request, browser, device, network, and security information. The website’s normal assets and typefaces are self-hosted.

BareVue uses Cloudflare Web Analytics to understand which pages are visited and how the website performs. It does not use cookies or track people across websites.

Messages to BareVue

If you contact BareVue by email, we receive your email address, message, and anything else you choose to provide. BareVue uses it to respond, support the service, and maintain appropriate business records. Support messages are kept only as long as reasonably necessary to answer the request and maintain those records.

When you send Feedback in the app, BareVue receives your report, any photos you attach, and your account identifier. The report automatically includes the current profile name when available and app/device details. Food-related reports can also include the item, selected portion and displayed nutrient values. BareVue stores this information with Cloudflare to investigate and respond.

Report text, item details, status and replies are visible to other authorized sign-ins on the same household account. Photos and the separately attached profile name, portion and device details are not shown in that history. You can delete a closed report from Feedback history. Section 15 explains retention.

11. Notifications and Reminders

BareVue schedules optional reminders on your device after you enable them and grant any required notification permission. The app and your device handle their settings, schedules and delivery.

Reminder text can identify the feature or task involved and can be visible on your lock screen according to your device notification settings. You can manage controls BareVue makes available for a reminder and can disable notification delivery through your operating-system settings.

BareVue also offers optional remote BareVue updates, which are off by default. If you enable them and grant the required operating-system notification permission, Firebase Cloud Messaging and, on Apple devices, Apple Push Notification service deliver messages to your device. They process installation and notification identifiers, app/device settings, delivery information and message content. Messages are grouped by platform and app language. For these updates, the app does not tell BareVue which account a notification identifier belongs to or include your profile, food log or custom reminder text in the group.

You can turn BareVue updates off in the app or in your device settings. This does not itself delete installation or notification identifiers already held by Apple or Google, which follow their provider retention rules. These updates are separate from messages addressed to an individual account or remote delivery of your own reminder text.

If BareVue offers user-created reminders, the text, schedule, timezone, enabled state, and any applicable profile association may be stored on the device and may be included in Cloud Sync when that capability supports it and you enable Sync. If you choose remote delivery for a custom notification, its message may include the text you wrote. Notification information stored by BareVue follows the retention and deletion rules in Sections 15 and 16.

BareVue will use promotional notifications only after a separate opt-in and will provide an in-app way to opt out of them. Other available notification controls may be provided in BareVue, and operating-system settings can disable all notification delivery.

12. Backups, Reports, Exports, Sharing, and Printing

When you choose Save Backup, BareVue creates a .barevuebackup file on your device and sends it only to the destination you select. BareVue can also create data exports and PDF reports containing sensitive profile, nutrition, or health information on your device and send them only to the location, app, printer, or person you select.

New-format .barevuebackup files are not encrypted by BareVue. Anyone with access to the file can read its contents. Keep your backup in a location you trust. Opening these files does not use BareVue’s backup-key service. Restoring them in BareVue still requires a compatible app, sign-in and an internet connection for the existing account and restore checks.

Other exports and PDF reports are not necessarily encrypted by BareVue. Their protection depends on the destination, app, account, or person you choose.

PDF generation currently downloads font resources from Google. Google receives ordinary network and request information for the font download, not the contents of the report.

Once you export, share, print, upload, or save a file elsewhere, that copy is controlled by you and the selected destination. Deleting the corresponding information from BareVue does not delete independent copies held by another app, person, printer, cloud-storage provider, email service, or operating-system backup.

13. Service Providers and Other Recipients

Depending on the features you use, BareVue works with:

Recipient Purpose
Supabase and its infrastructure providers Sign-in, optional sync, nutrition standards, security records, backup keys for older app versions, account deletion, ad-reward checks, and records of subscription access
Cloudflare Website delivery and protection, catalog services, food-search statistics, in-app Feedback, product submissions, and related processing, storage and security
Apple Sign in with Apple, App Attest, App Store purchases, remote notification delivery, and user-controlled device backup
Google Google sign-in, Play Integrity, Google Play purchases and model delivery, Firebase Analytics, Firebase Cloud Messaging, Crashlytics, Mobile Ads/UMP, PDF font delivery, BareVue support and privacy email delivery, and user-controlled device backup
RevenueCat Subscription products, receipts, customer identity, and access to paid features
Typesense Catalog and reference search
Open Food Facts Product lookups, images, and current public food-contribution destination
A website you provide for Recipe Import Downloading the recipe page and related image you requested
A destination you select Exports, backups, PDF reports, sharing, printing, email, files, or other user-directed transfers

Some recipients process information to provide a service to BareVue. Other recipients—such as app stores, a website requested for Recipe Import, Open Food Facts, and destinations you select—can act independently for parts of their processing and apply their own terms and privacy controls.

BareVue can also disclose information when required by law or when reasonably necessary to protect BareVue, its users, or others; investigate abuse or security incidents; enforce applicable agreements; or establish, exercise, or defend legal claims.

14. Legal Bases Where Applicable

Where applicable law requires BareVue to identify a legal basis, BareVue relies on the following bases for the purposes described in this Policy. The same category of information can be processed under different bases when it is used for separate purposes.

  • Providing the service and performing BareVue’s agreement with you. BareVue processes information when it is objectively necessary to create or operate an account; provide the profile, nutrition, wellness, calculation, subscription, reward, and support services you request; perform an import, export, sharing, or other action you select; or provide optional Cloud Sync after you enable it.
  • Consent. BareVue relies on consent where required for specified activities, including processing health, reproductive, or other sensitive information; Usage Analytics; personalized advertising and related device-storage or access; and optional promotional communications. Consent applies only to the stated purpose. Agreement to the Terms, acknowledgement of this Policy, Google privacy choices, BareVue’s Usage Analytics preference, and any other consent control are separate and do not substitute for one another.
  • Legitimate interests. BareVue can process information as reasonably necessary to secure and operate the service; prevent, detect, and investigate fraud, abuse, or security incidents; diagnose crashes and reliability problems; provide and proportionately measure the website; moderate contributions; maintain appropriate acceptance, transaction, and security records; and establish, exercise, or defend BareVue’s rights. BareVue relies on this basis only where those interests are not overridden by the person’s rights and interests.
  • Compliance with law. BareVue processes information when necessary to comply with applicable law, respond to valid legal process or privacy-rights requests, and maintain records required by law.

Where EU or UK law treats health, reproductive, or related information as special-category data, BareVue relies on explicit consent for the core service. BareVue obtains separate consent for optional purposes when applicable law requires it. Without the core-service consent, BareVue cannot provide the core service. If that consent is later withdrawn, your use through the applicable account access ends; Section 16 describes the optional export and the holder account-deletion or invited-member sign-in-removal route. When special-category information is genuinely necessary to establish, exercise, or defend a legal claim, BareVue can instead rely on the legal-claims condition for that limited purpose.

Swiss law uses a different legal framework. Where Swiss law applies, BareVue relies, as applicable, on the overriding private interest connected with providing the service you request, consent where required, compliance with law, and the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims.

The legal basis can affect the privacy rights available to you. Section 16 describes those rights and how to exercise them.

15. Retention

BareVue retains different information according to the feature and purpose:

Information How long it is kept or when it is deleted
Local app records Kept according to the deletion and backup rules in Section 4. Section 16 explains the separate local copy after account deletion and your choice to keep or remove it.
Information synchronized to Supabase Until the applicable profile or account deletion process; turning sync off does not delete information already synchronized
Previously synchronized profile information Removed through the profile-deletion process even when ordinary sync is off
Ordinary account data on BareVue’s servers Deleted with the account, except for the security, fraud-prevention, transaction, backup or legal records described separately. Provider logs and backups follow their own schedules.
Record of account deletion The former account identifier and deletion time remain for the life of the service. This record contains no profile, health, nutrition or food-log information.
Legal acceptance record Kept while the account exists, then scheduled for deletion six years after account deletion is recorded. This includes the document/confirmation record and its provider identifier and/or verified email. Six years is BareVue’s chosen record-keeping period, not a universal legal requirement.
Verified rewarded-ad evidence Approximately 24 to under 48 hours
Firebase Usage Analytics event and user data BareVue’s Firebase property is currently configured for two-month event and user-data retention; aggregate reporting and provider backup behavior can follow different boundaries
BareVue food-search statistics Routine cleanup keeps individual search records for today and the previous six days, and daily search/result summaries for today and the previous 89 days, using UTC dates. Summaries still contain search text. Provider logs and recovery copies have separate schedules.
Remote notification registration and delivery Your notification choice is saved on your device. Turning notifications off does not itself erase Apple/Google installation or notification identifiers; those providers apply their own retention and deletion rules.
Crashlytics reports Google currently documents an approximately 90-day service window for reports, minidumps, and associated identifiers
Support and privacy messages As long as reasonably necessary to answer the request, maintain appropriate business records, resolve disputes, or meet applicable legal obligations; the email provider can retain copies under its service settings
In-app Feedback Scheduled cleanup removes unfinished submissions after one day; photos and the attached profile name, portion and device details after 30 days from closure or 180 days from submission, whichever is earlier; and report text, replies and item names/brands after 180 days from closure. Remaining account-linked case information, including investigation notes, stays until report or account deletion. Closed reports can be deleted earlier in Feedback history.
Contribution-derived catalog information May remain independently of the contributor’s account; temporary failed-job and raw moderation-source records are retained only as long as reasonably needed to process, review, retry, secure, or document the contribution
Supplement contribution evidence Original product photos, submitted product details and product correction notes are kept to review contributions and maintain and verify the catalog, without a fixed retention period. Account deletion removes the linked account identifier; the product evidence may remain, subject to applicable privacy rights.
Subscription, purchase, security, integrity, search, and infrastructure records For as long as reasonably needed to provide or verify the requested service, protect the service, satisfy transaction or legal requirements, or follow the applicable provider’s settings
Account suspensions and bans Kept as long as needed to protect the service, which can include after the account is deleted
Copies sent to another destination or included in an operating-system backup Controlled by that destination or platform under its own settings and retention practices

16. Deletion, Choices, and Privacy Rights

Controls available in BareVue

Depending on the feature, you can:

  • edit or delete individual entries;
  • delete a profile;
  • export applicable information;
  • turn optional cloud sync off;
  • separately disable Usage Analytics and Crash Reporting;
  • use Google advertising privacy choices where Google makes them available;
  • delete your BareVue account through the app.

If BareVue requires separate sensitive-data consent for your selected country, withdrawing it ends your access through the account or sign-in described below. You can first export the active profile. Switch profiles and export each one you want to keep before withdrawing consent.

If you can delete the account, confirming Withdraw consent and delete account uses the account-deletion process described below. An invited member who cannot delete the shared account instead uses Manage sign-ins to remove their own sign-in. This removes that sign-in’s access; it does not delete the household account or its shared profiles. If the app needs to confirm which sign-in you are using, it asks you to confirm before offering the applicable option. Contact privacy@barevue.app for a request concerning your information that these controls do not resolve.

Deleting a profile removes that profile’s information from the device where deletion is requested and, if it was previously synchronized, from BareVue’s cloud systems. This deletion is handled even if ordinary cloud sync is turned off.

Other devices may retain a saved copy of the profile. Restoring that copy shares it again when Cloud Sync is available.

Deleting your BareVue account removes its sign-in account and ordinary data on BareVue’s servers, subject to the exceptions below. It signs you out on the device where you requested deletion but does not automatically erase that device’s local database. That copy is kept separate from normal account use while you are signed out or deciding what to do with the remaining data.

If you later sign in to another account on that installation, BareVue asks you to delete the remaining local data, keep selected profiles, or cancel. To keep profiles, you must sign in to an account with no existing profiles and confirm deletion of any profiles you do not keep. The new account cannot access the old profiles automatically. Profiles you choose to keep become available on that device under the new account, with its sync and deletion choices. Separate backups, exports and other copies follow the rules described above.

Some limited records or copies can remain, including:

  • a private record of account deletion kept for the life of the service so BareVue can recognize that account when later handling local information associated with it;
  • app-integrity, fraud-prevention, reward-verification, transaction, managed- log, and backup records;
  • the limited legal-acceptance record, including the Apple or Google account identifier and/or verified email used to locate it, retained for six years after account deletion;
  • operating-system backups and user-selected exports or shared copies;
  • vendor-controlled purchase, analytics, crash, infrastructure, or security records; and
  • catalog information derived from a final contribution or information already delivered to an external public product database.

Contribution submission does not include a BareVue edit or withdrawal mechanism. Requests involving account-linked contribution metadata will be handled as required by applicable law, but do not necessarily remove catalog information that is no longer linked to the account or copies controlled by an external recipient.

Rights that may apply

Depending on where you live and which law applies, you may have rights to:

  • know about or access certain personal information;
  • correct inaccurate personal information;
  • request deletion;
  • receive a portable copy;
  • restrict or object to certain processing;
  • withdraw consent where processing depends on consent;
  • opt out of certain targeted advertising, sale, or sharing;
  • appeal a denied request; and
  • complain to an applicable regulator.

These rights are not identical in every jurisdiction and can be subject to identity verification and lawful exceptions. BareVue may retain information when required or permitted for security, fraud prevention, legal compliance, transactions, free expression, public information, or legal claims.

Signed-in account holders can use BareVue’s in-app account-deletion control. To make another privacy request, contact privacy@barevue.app and identify the BareVue account or other interaction involved. For an account-linked request, BareVue will ordinarily verify control through the same Apple or Google sign-in used for that account.

If that sign-in is unavailable, BareVue may request only the minimum additional information reasonably needed to authenticate the request. BareVue will not use food logs, weight, pregnancy, dependent-profile information, or other health details as identity-verification questions, and routine requests will not require government-issued identification. If BareVue cannot reasonably authenticate a request, it may decline the request and will provide the explanation or appeal route required by applicable law. An authorized representative may be required to provide proof of authority and, where permitted, confirmation from the account holder.

17. Security

BareVue uses technical and organizational safeguards to help protect your information. These include sign-in checks, separating accounts, rules limiting access to database records, encrypted connections to BareVue’s services, app-integrity checks, short-lived ad-reward records, and restricted access to services.

No method of storage or transmission is completely secure. Websites and other destinations selected by the user control their own copies, and BareVue depends on service providers whose systems and retention are not controlled solely by BareVue.

18. International Processing

BareVue and its providers can process information in the United States and other countries. BareVue’s services hosted by Supabase currently run in the United States. Cloudflare uses a worldwide network, and the other providers and user-selected destinations described above can process information outside your country.

The privacy and data-protection laws in those locations can differ from those where you live.

Where applicable law requires a transfer mechanism, BareVue relies on recognized safeguards for its service-provider relationships. Depending on the provider and transfer, these can include an adequacy decision, an applicable data-privacy framework, or contractual safeguards such as the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses and the United Kingdom’s approved transfer addendum.

Some recipients, including advertising, identity, store, and user-selected services, can determine their own purposes and apply their own privacy and international-transfer terms.

19. Changes to This Policy

BareVue may update this Privacy Policy when features, providers, legal requirements, or data practices change. The policy will show its effective date.

If a change materially affects how BareVue handles information, BareVue will provide any notice or renewed choice required by applicable law.
