Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

Viking Tech ("we", "our", or "us") operates Mylo: AI Calorie Tracker (the "App"). This Privacy Policy explains what we collect when you use the App, why, who we share it with, and how to delete it.

2. Information We Collect

• Account information: your name, email address, and, if you sign in with Apple or Google, the identifier those services give us.
• Profile and body information: sex, date of birth, height, weight, activity level, goal and diet style, which we use to calculate your calorie and macro targets.
• Food data: meals you log, portions, custom foods, and the calories and macros for each.
• Photos: meal photos you take or choose, and a profile photo if you add one.
• Voice and text descriptions: when you describe a meal by typing or speaking. Speech is turned into text by your device's speech recognition (on iPhone, Apple's speech service); we receive the text, not the audio.
• Weight entries you log.
• Subscription status: whether you have Mylo Pro, received from RevenueCat. We never see your card details; Apple handles payment.
• Usage and device data: which screens and features you use, app version, device model, language and approximate country, used to fix problems and improve the App.

3. How We Use Your Information

• To estimate calories and macros from your photos, descriptions and barcodes
• To calculate your targets and show your daily totals, history and progress
• To count your free AI scans and manage your subscription
• To keep your account secure and send service emails such as password resets
• To understand which features work and fix bugs
• To measure which ads brought you to the App, if you arrived from one

4. Photos and AI Analysis

When you scan a meal or describe one, the photo or text is sent to our nutrition service, which uses an AI vision model (Amazon Bedrock, run by Amazon Web Services) to identify the food and estimate its nutrition. Photos are stored so you can see them in your history. We may use food photos and their corrected nutrition to improve food recognition; we do not use your name, email or body information for this. Estimates from photos are approximate.

5. Data Storage and Security

Your data is stored on servers run by our providers (PlanetScale for the database, Cloudflare for photos) and sent over encrypted connections (HTTPS). Access to the App uses secure authentication tokens. No method of storage or transmission is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

6. Third-Party Services

We share only what each service needs to do its job:

• Amazon Web Services (Bedrock): analysing meal photos and descriptions.
• Open Food Facts and USDA food databases: product and nutrition data for barcodes and search. We send the barcode or search term, not your personal information.
• PlanetScale and Cloudflare: database and photo storage.
• RevenueCat and Apple: subscriptions and in-app purchases.
• PostHog: product analytics.
• Appstack: install attribution, to measure which ads brought you to the App. If you arrived from an ad, a hashed (scrambled) copy of your email may be shared with that ad platform to match the install.
• Resend: sending service emails.
• Apple and Google: Sign in with Apple and Google Sign-In, if you use them.

These services have their own privacy policies governing their use of your data. We do not sell your personal information.

7. Data Retention and Account Deletion

We keep your data while your account is active. You can delete your account at any time in Settings → Delete Account. This immediately deletes your account, your logged meals, weight entries, custom foods, targets, scan history, and your meal and profile photos stored by Mylo. Copies of scan photos kept by our nutrition service for food recognition stay linked only to a random ID, never your name or email. Database backups roll off within 30 days. Deleting your account does not cancel an App Store subscription; cancel it in your Apple ID subscription settings.

8. Your Rights

You have the right to:

• Access the personal data we hold about you
• Correct inaccurate data, most of which you can edit in the App
• Delete your data or your whole account from Settings
• Export your data from Settings

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at support@getmylo.app.

9. Health Information

Mylo is not a medical device and is not medical advice. The body and food information you enter is used only to run the App's features described above.

10. Children's Privacy

The App is not intended for children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we become aware that we have, we will delete it.

11. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of material changes by posting the new policy in the App or on our website. Your continued use of the App after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
