FridgeWise Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 17, 2026

TasteBot, LLC ("FridgeWise," "we," "us," or "our") provides a mobile application and related website that help users track groceries, estimate freshness timing, and manage fridge/freezer/pantry inventory (the "Service"). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and share information when you use:

  • The FridgeWise mobile apps.
  • Our website and related pages.
  • Any support channels we provide, such as email support.

If you do not agree with this policy, please do not use the Service.

1. Who we are & how to contact us

  • Controller: TasteBot, LLC - Texas, USA.
  • Contact email: support@fridgewiseapp.com.

You can contact us at the email above with questions about this policy or your data.

2. Children's privacy

The Service is intended for individuals 13 years and older. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child under 13 has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can delete it.

3. Information we collect

We collect the following categories of information from and about you.

3.1. Account identifiers

  • Email address.
  • Authentication provider details if you sign in with Apple or Google, such as a provider-specific user ID and the email address associated with that account.
  • Anonymous or guest account identifiers where guest access is available.
  • We do not collect or store passwords for Apple or Google sign-in.

3.2. Grocery and inventory data

To provide grocery tracking and freshness features, we store information you enter, confirm, scan, import, or edit, such as:

  • Grocery item names.
  • Quantities, amounts, and units.
  • Storage locations, such as fridge, freezer, pantry, or custom storages.
  • Purchase dates, use-by dates, and app-generated freshness estimates.
  • Opened-state information where supported.
  • Barcode and product data.
  • Item categories, storage profiles, and related metadata used to organize inventory.

FridgeWise treats this as grocery tracking data, not as medical, dietary, or food-safety advice.

3.3. Photos and imported content

You may choose to upload or capture content, including:

  • Receipt photos.
  • Grocery photos.
  • Shopping list photos or text.
  • Other item-related images or details you add to the Service.

We process this content to identify grocery items, prefill inventory details, estimate freshness timing, and provide related app features.

3.4. Feedback and support messages

If you contact support or send app feedback, we may collect:

  • Your message.
  • Your email address or account identifier.
  • App version, platform, device, and diagnostic context needed to respond or troubleshoot.

3.5. Usage, analytics, and attribution data

We collect usage and analytics data to understand how the Service is used, improve the product, measure installs and attribution, troubleshoot issues, prevent abuse, and operate the business. Examples include:

  • App opens and screen views.
  • Onboarding, auth, paywall, purchase, restore, and subscription-related events.
  • Manual add, barcode scan, Smart Import, item-limit, and freshness-estimate usage events.
  • Counts, success/failure status, cooldown status, and feature metadata.
  • Free vs premium status.
  • Device platform, app version, locale, and similar technical metadata.

We do not intentionally send raw barcode values, item names, grocery text, emails, or photos in app analytics events.

We use analytics and attribution tools such as Firebase Analytics and AppsFlyer to help measure app usage, installs, and attribution in accordance with their policies.

3.6. Device, push notification, crash, and technical information

We may collect technical information such as:

  • Device model.
  • Operating system version.
  • App version and build number.
  • Push notification token and notification preferences.
  • Timezone and locale.
  • Crash logs, diagnostics, and error logs.
  • Device identifiers used for security, analytics, attribution, and push notifications.

Crash or error logs may occasionally include limited contextual information related to the error.

3.7. Subscriptions and purchases

We store purchase entitlement status and subscription-related metadata provided by Apple App Store, Google Play Store, RevenueCat, and related purchase infrastructure, such as:

  • Free vs premium status.
  • Product identifiers.
  • General billing, renewal, cancellation, trial, and entitlement status.
  • Limited transaction or receipt metadata needed to validate purchases and provide access.

We do not receive or store full payment card details. Apple and Google process payments under their own terms and privacy policies.

4. How we use information

We use information to:

  • Provide, personalize, and maintain the Service.
  • Create, update, sync, and display grocery inventory.
  • Analyze Smart Imports and barcode/product information.
  • Estimate freshness timing and use-by dates.
  • Send push notifications if you enable them.
  • Enforce free and premium limits.
  • Process subscriptions and restore purchases.
  • Provide customer support and respond to feedback.
  • Improve app quality, performance, reliability, and user experience.
  • Measure installs, attribution, app usage, and business performance.
  • Detect, prevent, and investigate fraud, abuse, rate-limit bypassing, security incidents, and technical issues.
  • Comply with legal obligations, dispute resolution, and enforcement of our rights.

5. AI and automated processing

FridgeWise uses AI, automation, and deterministic rules to provide features such as Smart Import and freshness estimates.

When you use those features, relevant grocery/item/photo/text data may be sent to AI providers and related processors so they can analyze the content and return results. Outputs may be inaccurate, incomplete, or based on inference. You are responsible for reviewing and correcting results before relying on them.

6. How we share information

We may share information with the following categories of recipients:

6.1. Service providers and processors

We use vendors to help provide infrastructure, AI processing, analytics, attribution, payments, paywalls, crash reporting, support, and product features. These include:

  • Supabase.
  • OpenAI.
  • Firebase.
  • AppsFlyer.
  • RevenueCat.
  • Superwall.
  • Sentry.
  • Open Food Facts.
  • Apple.
  • Google.

These providers may process information on our behalf or under their own terms depending on the service.

6.2. Legal, safety, and enforcement

We may disclose information if we reasonably believe it is necessary to:

  • Comply with law, legal process, court orders, or governmental requests.
  • Enforce our Terms of Service.
  • Protect the rights, property, safety, or security of FridgeWise, users, or others.
  • Detect, prevent, or address fraud, abuse, security, or technical issues.

6.3. Business transfers

If we are involved in a merger, acquisition, financing, reorganization, sale of assets, bankruptcy, or similar transaction, information may be transferred as part of that transaction, subject to appropriate safeguards.

6.4. With your direction or consent

We may share information when you direct us to do so or give consent.

7. Data retention

We retain information for as long as reasonably necessary to provide the Service, maintain your account, support product features, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, prevent abuse, and maintain backups.

When you delete your account, we delete your user record and associated active account and inventory data from our active systems, subject to backup, security, fraud-prevention, legal, and operational retention.

Backups and logs may persist for a limited period before being deleted or overwritten.

8. Your choices

Depending on your device, account status, and applicable law, you may be able to:

  • Access, update, or delete grocery inventory in the app.
  • Change notification preferences.
  • Disable push notifications through app settings or device settings.
  • Manage or cancel subscriptions through Apple App Store or Google Play.
  • Delete your account through Settings where available.
  • Contact us to request help accessing, correcting, or deleting information.

Some information may be required to provide the Service. If you delete or restrict certain information, some features may stop working.

9. Security

We use reasonable technical, administrative, and organizational measures designed to protect information. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

You are responsible for keeping your device, email account, and authentication methods secure.

10. U.S. privacy rights

FridgeWise is currently intended for a U.S. audience. Depending on where you live and the laws that apply, you may have rights to request access, correction, deletion, portability, or information about how your personal information is used.

To make a request, contact us at support@fridgewiseapp.com. We may need to verify your identity before responding.

10.1. California privacy notice

California residents may have certain rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended, if it applies to us. These may include the right to know, delete, correct, and opt out of certain uses of personal information.

We do not sell personal information for money. We may use analytics and attribution tools that process identifiers and usage data. If applicable law treats any of this as "sharing" for cross-context behavioral advertising, you may contact us to request more information or opt out where required.

We do not knowingly sell or share personal information of users under 16.

11. Do Not Track and device privacy settings

Some browsers or devices offer "Do Not Track" or similar signals. The Service does not currently respond to all such signals. You can use device-level privacy, tracking, notification, and advertising settings to control certain permissions and identifiers.

12. International users

The Service is currently intended for users in the United States. If you access the Service from outside the United States, you understand that information may be processed in the United States and other locations where our providers operate.

13. Changes to this Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If changes are material, we will provide reasonable notice, such as in-app notice or email, and indicate the new effective date.

Your continued use of the Service after the updated Privacy Policy becomes effective means you accept the changes.
