CaloScan is a nutrition and calorie tracking app that helps users estimate calories, macronutrients, supplement information, water intake, and food details using camera scans, barcode scans, manual entry, and nutrition databases.
This Privacy Policy explains what information CaloScan collects, how it is used, and how users can manage their data.
CaloScan may collect or process the following types of information:
CaloScan does not intentionally collect sensitive medical records, doctor records, or clinical diagnosis information.
CaloScan may ask for permission to access your camera or photo library so you can scan food, drinks, supplements, barcodes, or other nutrition-related items.
Images are only used when you choose to scan or upload something. Images may be sent to CaloScan’s backend server or third-party analysis providers to return nutrition estimates and scan results.
We use collected information to:
Some CaloScan features may use third-party services to process scan requests and return results. These may include AI analysis providers, barcode databases, food databases, nutrition databases, supplement information sources, cloud hosting providers, and Apple services.
For example, when you scan a meal, image or text data may be sent to an AI service so the app can estimate calories and nutrition values. When you scan a barcode, the barcode number may be checked against external product or nutrition databases.
CaloScan uses a backend server to help protect API keys and process scan requests. API keys are not intended to be stored directly inside the mobile app.
CaloScan may store app data locally on your device. If you enable cloud syncing features, some data may also be stored or synced using Apple services such as iCloud.
Local app data may include nutrition logs, supplement logs, water logs, goals, reminders, saved items, and app settings.
If data is stored locally, deleting the app may remove locally stored data unless it has been backed up or synced through your device or Apple account.
CaloScan may use Apple-related services such as Sign in with Apple or iCloud if enabled in the app. If Sign in with Apple is used, Apple may provide a private relay email address instead of your real email address, depending on your Apple settings.
CaloScan provides estimates only. Food scans, barcode scans, supplement scans, water scans, calories, macronutrients, ingredients, serving sizes, and health-related information may be inaccurate or incomplete.
CaloScan does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Information in the app should not replace advice from a doctor, dietitian, pharmacist, nutritionist, or other qualified health professional.
Users should verify nutrition labels, supplement labels, allergens, ingredients, and medical advice before making health, diet, supplement, or medication decisions.
Supplement, herb, vitamin, mineral, and protein powder information shown in CaloScan is for general informational purposes only. Supplement effects, safe dosages, interactions, and suitability can vary between individuals.
Always check with a qualified health professional before starting, stopping, or changing supplements, especially if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, under 18, taking medication, or have a medical condition.
We do not sell your personal data.
We may share limited data with service providers only when needed to operate the app, such as processing scan requests, hosting backend services, syncing data, checking barcodes, analysing images, or improving app reliability.
We use reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect app data. However, no app, website, server, or internet transmission is completely secure.
CaloScan keeps user data only as long as needed to provide app functionality, comply with legal obligations, resolve issues, or improve the app. Locally stored data remains on your device unless deleted by you, removed by the app, or affected by device backup and sync settings.
You can delete app data from within the app where deletion features are available. You may also delete the app from your device to remove locally stored app data, subject to your device backup and iCloud settings.

CaloScan is not intended for children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information, please contact us so we can take appropriate action.
CaloScan may use service providers located in different countries. By using the app, you understand that information may be processed in locations outside your country or region.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make changes, we will update the effective date at the top of this page.
