Introduction
Daili Value ("we", "our", or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your information when you use our mobile application.
Information We Collect
We collect the following types of information:
- Account Information: Email address and display name when you create an account
- Profile Information: Bio, avatar photo, your fitness goal, the food culture you tell us you usually eat, and any health topic tags you choose to add to community posts
- Health & Wellness Data: Information you provide to wellness features, such as daily check-ins, symptoms, and health topic tags you add to community posts (see "Health Information" below)
- Content: Meal logs, photos you choose to analyze, videos, posts, comments, and other content you create. Meal logs and analysis photos are private to your account unless you separately publish content as a community post. Community posts and their media may be viewed by other app users. User-uploaded community videos are not used as My Recipes search results.
- My Recipes: Private recipe titles, source links and creator attribution, categories, ingredient quantities, instructions, yields, serving references, nutrition estimates, and portion snapshots added to plans or logs. Recipes are stored on your device and synced to your account using Supabase. They are not automatically community posts.
- Technical Data: Our hosting, authentication, and other service providers may process information such as IP address, device or browser type, operating system, app version, request timing, and error information to deliver, secure, and troubleshoot the service.
How We Use Your Information
We use your information to:
- Provide and maintain our services
- Organize your private recipe collection and estimate nutrition from recipe titles, ingredient quantities, yields, and serving descriptions you confirm. When creating a recipe or requesting an ingredient swap, the selected idea or recipe, retrieved public recipe evidence, configured nutrition goals, applied goal plan and enabled food culture are sent to OpenAI to generate an adaptation. Generated recipes store source-inspiration links and adaptation notes. Confirmed finished recipe details are sent to OpenAI for a nutrition estimate. A swap preview recalculates nutrition once before confirmation. Portion changes reuse the saved estimate without another AI call. Adding to a meal plan or food log stores the selected portion and its nutrition snapshot. Editing or deleting a recipe does not automatically change or remove entries already saved in plans or logs.
- Process your account registration and manage your profile
- Enable social features like following, liking, and commenting
- Provide AI-powered nutrition analysis and recommendations
- Send important updates about your account or the service
- Improve and personalize your experience
Data Storage and Security
We use Supabase for authentication, database services, and private media storage. We use access controls and encrypted network connections to help protect your data. No method of storage or transmission is completely secure. We do not sell your personal information or share it for targeted advertising.
Third-Party Services
We use the following third-party services:
- Supabase: Authentication and database services
- RevenueCat, Apple, and Google: Subscription entitlement management and store purchase processing. Daili Value does not receive your full payment card number.
- OpenAI: AI-powered analysis. Where the app refers to "our analysis service," that service is OpenAI. To generate nutrition insights we may send the following to OpenAI for processing: food photos and descriptions; meal and check-in summaries; recent chat messages you typed and workout logs, when you use prediction and insight features; product ingredient lists, barcodes, label photos, and product names you check with the Label Lie Detector; dish names you ask Cuisine Upgrade to make healthier; symptoms you provide, plus your fitness goal (for example, lose weight), its eating plan, your age, and your activity level when you turn on personalized guidance, so meal and exercise feedback can be tailored; the food culture you tell us you usually eat, when you set it in your profile. OpenAI does not use this data to train models that serve other users.
- YouTube and Google: Social Recipes search and Meal Idea recipe inspiration send dish/search terms and, when enabled, food-culture terms or a YouTube video identifier to the YouTube Data API through our server to retrieve public source information. Daili does not download, rehost, or claim ownership of creator videos. When you open a source link or view YouTube content, YouTube or Google may receive your IP address, device or browser information, cookies or similar identifiers, and video interactions according to the Google Privacy Policy. YouTube content is also subject to the YouTube Terms of Service. User-uploaded community videos are not used as recipe search results.
- Other recipe source platforms: Supported social shares supply links and sometimes text you choose to share. Daili does not request your social account password or automatically read private posts. Unavailable recipe details result in an import-failure explanation, not an incomplete saved recipe. Opening a source on TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest, or another platform is subject to that platform's privacy policy and may expose browser, device, and interaction information to it.
- Open Food Facts: Packaged-food information, such as ingredients and nutrition facts, may be retrieved using a barcode or product search. Open Food Facts data is provided by contributors and may be incomplete, outdated, or incorrect.
- Recall sources: Product checks may compare details with U.S. Food and Drug Administration ongoing food recall records. Daili also retrieves active USDA FSIS meat and poultry recall statuses from a third-party nightly mirror, Recall Bench, and newer official USDA bulletins. Product details are not sent to the mirror. The mirror is not a live USDA check and neither its titles nor bulletins can verify a package or lot. Sources may be unavailable or delayed.
Health Information
Some features analyze health-related information you choose to provide, including daily check-ins and symptoms.
- Your control: Right after you sign in or create an account, the app shows one full-screen agreement listing what can be sent and who it goes to, with "Agree & Continue" and "Decline" options. One agreement covers every AI feature. If you decline, no data is sent to OpenAI; you are signed out and asked again the next time you sign in. Deleting your account removes your saved data as described below.
- Not medical advice: AI analysis is for general educational purposes only and is not a medical diagnosis or a substitute for professional care. Always consult a qualified healthcare provider.
- Food and product limitations: Nutrition estimates, label checks, ingredient warnings, portion guidance, and recall matches may be incomplete or inaccurate. Always read the physical package, check allergens and lot codes yourself, follow official recall instructions, and contact a qualified professional when safety or medical advice is needed.
Your Rights
You have the right to:
- Access your personal data
- Correct inaccurate information
- Delete your account and associated data
- Export your data
- Opt out of marketing communications
You can exercise several account controls directly in the app. Go to Profile and tap Edit Profile to correct profile information, request a verified email change, export available account data as a machine-readable JSON file, or delete your account. Email changes take effect only after the required verification steps are completed. If you forget your password, use Forgot password? on the sign-in screen. The export may include your profile, community posts and interactions, meal plans, nutrition chats and statistics, daily check-ins, synced app settings, and account-specific data stored on the current device. It does not include the image or video files themselves. You can also email us at hello@dailivalue.com to ask about your privacy rights.
U.S. State Privacy Rights
Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights under your state's privacy law, including the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA/CPRA), the Colorado Privacy Act, the Connecticut Data Privacy Act, the Texas Data Privacy and Security Act, the Virginia Consumer Data Protection Act, and similar laws in other states. Where these laws apply, you have the right to:
- Know and access the personal information we collect about you and how we use and share it.
- Correct inaccurate personal information.
- Delete your personal information.
- Data portability: receive a copy of your personal information in a portable, machine-readable format.
- Opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information and of targeted advertising. We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it for targeted advertising.
- Limit the use of sensitive personal information. We use health-related information you provide (such as daily check-ins, symptoms, and post tags) only to deliver the app's features you request, never for advertising, profiling, or sale.
- Non-discrimination: we will never deny you service, charge you a different price, or provide a different level of service for exercising your privacy rights.
To exercise any of these rights, use the in-app Export My Data or Delete Account options, or email hello@dailivalue.com. We will verify your request using the email address associated with your account and respond within the timeframe required by your state's law (generally 45 days). You may also use an authorized agent to submit a request on your behalf; we will require proof of the agent's authorization. If we decline a request, you may appeal by replying to our decision, and we will review the appeal.
HIPAA Notice
Daili Value is a consumer wellness app. We are not a healthcare provider, health plan, or healthcare clearinghouse, and we are not a "covered entity" or "business associate" under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). This means the health-related information you share in the app is not protected health information under HIPAA. Instead, it is protected by this Privacy Policy and applicable consumer privacy laws. We treat health-related information as sensitive data, use access controls and encrypted network connections to protect it, and do not sell or use it for targeted advertising.
Data Retention
We retain your personal data only for as long as it is needed to provide you with our services. Specifically:
- Account information (email, display name, profile, fitness goal, and preferences): retained for as long as your account remains active.
- Content you create (photos, posts, comments, likes): retained for as long as your account remains active, or until you delete the individual item where deletion is available.
- Technical and operational records: retained only as long as reasonably needed to operate, secure, troubleshoot, and comply with legal obligations for the service.
- After account deletion: account data is removed from active systems when deletion is confirmed. Some information may remain in backups for up to 30 days while backups are cycled out. Records we are legally required to keep, such as certain transaction records, may be retained only for the required period.
How to Delete Your Data
Before deleting, you can download available account data using Export My Data in Edit Profile. You can delete your account in the app:
- In the app: Open the app, go to your Profile, tap Edit Profile, scroll to Danger Zone, and select Delete Account. This removes your account data from active systems, subject to the backup and legally required retention exceptions described above.
Once your data is deleted it cannot be recovered. Some information may remain in encrypted backups for a short period before those backups are cycled out, after which it is permanently removed.
Children's Privacy
Our service is not intended for users under 13 years of age. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new policy on this page and updating the "Last updated" date.
