MyKal ("we", "our", or "the app") respects your privacy. This policy explains what data we collect, how we use it, and your rights.
1. Data We Collect

3. AI & Meal Analysis
When you use the AI assistant or camera meal analysis, your meal descriptions and photos are sent to our AI service provider for processing. This data is used solely for generating nutrition analysis and is not stored by the AI provider beyond the processing session.

Your data is stored securely on Supabase (hosted on AWS). All data is encrypted in transit (TLS) and at rest. Row-level security ensures you can only access your own data.
