Last Updated: April 29, 2026
Burn Back ("we," "our," or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and disclose information when you use our mobile application, specifically regarding Health and Fitness data.
Important: We do not sell your health data to third parties or use it for advertising purposes.
1. Information We Access and Collect
Health and Fitness Data
To provide our services, our app accesses and processes the following health-related information:
- Nutritional Data: Information regarding food items you scan, including estimated calories, macronutrients, and ingredients.
- Activity Data: Information regarding exercises, duration, and intensity of physical activities identified through the app.
Device Permissions
- Camera Data: Our app requires access to your device's camera to identify food items and analyze physical activities. Images are used for real-time analysis and are not stored in your device's permanent gallery without your consent.
2. How We Use Your Data
The health and activity data collected is used solely for the following purposes:
- Core Functionality: To provide accurate calorie estimates and personalized exercise recommendations.
- Local Tracking: To maintain a "Scan History" so you can monitor your nutritional intake and activity over time.
- App Improvement: To improve the accuracy of our AI-driven recognition models.
3. Use of Third-Party Services
Google Gemini AI: We use Google’s Generative AI services to process images for nutritional and activity analysis. When you scan an item, the data is sent to Google for processing. This data is handled in accordance with Google’s privacy and security standards.
4. Data Storage and Retention
We prioritize your privacy by keeping data local whenever possible:
- No Remote User Database: We do not store your personal identity or health history on our own remote servers.
- Local Storage: Your "Scan History" is stored locally on your device. Deleting the app will permanently remove this data.
5. Your Rights and Choices
You may opt-out of camera or health data processing at any time by adjusting your device settings. Please note that if these permissions are revoked, the app will be unable to perform its primary functions (scanning and analysis).
