1. Introduction
Next Meal ("we", "our", or "the app") is committed to protecting your privacy. This policy explains what data we collect, how we use it, and your rights. We use your data only to give you the best meal recommendations based on your input, dietary preferences, and choices. We do not share your data with any third party.
2. Data We Collect
We may collect and process:
- Account information (e.g. email, display name, profile photo)
- Dietary preferences (e.g. vegetarian, vegan, Jain, diabetic)
- Allergies and items you don’t eat
- Go-to meals (regular and special occasion)
- Special occasions (e.g. birthdays, anniversaries)
- Favourites, calendar entries, and usage within the app
3. How We Use Your Data
We use your data solely to personalise and improve your experience—including meal recommendations, calendar planning, and features like "Surprise Me" and "Spin the Wheel". We do not sell, rent, or share your personal data with third parties for their marketing or any other purpose.
4. No Third-Party Sharing
We do not share your personal data with any third party. Your information is used only within our app and systems to provide and improve our recommendation and planning features.
5. AI & Recommendations
Our recommendations are generated using an AI-based algorithm. While we aim to use your preferences and restrictions to improve suggestions, the algorithm may occasionally produce recommendations that are not suitable for you. Next Meal does not guarantee the accuracy or suitability of every recommendation. Please use your own discretion when following any suggestion.
6. External Recipe Links
Recipe links in the app may point to external sites (e.g. YouTube or other social media). We have not checked individual recipes. External recipes may contain ingredients that do not match your dietary preferences or allergens. You are responsible for reviewing any recipe before use. User discretion is advised.
7. Data Security & Your Rights
We take reasonable steps to protect your data. You can update or correct your profile and preferences within the app. If you have questions or want to request access, correction, or deletion of your data, please contact us via the Feedback section in the app.
8. Changes
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Continued use of the app after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
