Privacy Policy
Last updated: 8-11-25
Sculpty ("the App") respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how the App handles information.
1. Information We Collect
The App does not collect or store any personally identifiable information on our servers.
However, the App sends the following non-personal data to third-party services in order to provide core functionality:
- Food search queries, barcode numbers, and food IDs are sent to the FatSecret API so the App can retrieve nutrition information and food details.
2. How Your Data Is Used
- Locally on your device: Workout logs, meals, measurements, settings, and other user-entered data are stored only on your device.
- iCloud backups (optional): You may choose to back up your data to your personal iCloud account, either manually or automatically. This uses Apple's iCloud service and is subject to Apple's privacy policy. We do not have access to your iCloud backups.
- Widgets: Calorie and nutrition data displayed in widgets is stored locally using Apple's App Groups feature for sharing data between the App and its widgets.
3. Camera Access
The App requests permission to use your device's camera only for barcode scanning.
- The live camera feed is processed entirely on your device to detect and read barcodes.
- The camera feed is never stored or transmitted.
- Only the decoded barcode number is sent to the FatSecret API to retrieve corresponding nutrition information.
4. Third-Party Services
- FatSecret API (https://platform.fatsecret.com/) – Used for food searching, barcode lookup, and retrieving nutrition data. Your search queries, barcode numbers, and food IDs are transmitted to FatSecret. No personal identifiers (such as your name, email, or device ID) are sent.
- Apple iCloud – If you enable backups, your data is stored securely in your own iCloud account, managed by Apple.
The App does not use advertising SDKs, analytics services, or any other third-party tools.
5. Children's Privacy
The App is designed for general use and is not specifically directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. Parents or guardians who believe their child has provided information can contact Apple Support to manage app data stored on their device.
6. Your Privacy Choices
- Disable iCloud backups in the App's settings if you prefer to keep all data local.
- Do not use food search or barcode scan features if you do not wish to send queries to FatSecret.
- You can delete all local data by removing the App from your device.
7. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we will notify you by updating the "Last Updated" date under sculpty.app/privacy. You are advised to consult this Privacy Policy regularly for any changes, as continued use is deemed approval of all changes.
