Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

Start2Finish Meals ("we", "our", or "us") operates the Start2Finish Meals mobile application and website (the "Service"). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our Service.

• App Data: Meal plans, grocery lists, pantry items, budgets, recipes, and favorites you create.
• Usage Data: How you interact with the Service, including feature usage and device information.
• Payment Information: Subscription and purchase details processed securely by our payment provider. We do not store your full card number.
• Authentication Data: When you sign in with Apple, Google, Microsoft, or Facebook, we receive the name and email associated with your account.

4. Sign in with Apple

If you choose to sign in with Apple, we receive only the name and email Apple shares with us. Apple provides you the option to hide your email and use a relay address. We do not use your Apple ID for tracking or share it with third parties. Your Apple authentication is handled entirely by Apple, and we never receive your Apple password.

5. How We Share Your Information

We do not sell your personal information. We may share data with:

• Service Providers: Third parties that help us operate the Service, such as payment processing, email delivery, and cloud hosting.
• Legal Authorities: When required by law, court order, or to protect our rights and safety.
• Business Transfers: In connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of our assets, subject to the same privacy protections.

6. Data Retention and Deletion

We retain your data for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the Service. You can permanently delete your account and all associated data at any time from the Settings page within the app. Account deletion is irreversible and removes your meal plans, grocery lists, pantry items, budgets, recipes, and favorites.

7. Data Security

We use administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect your information. All data is transmitted over encrypted connections (TLS 1.2 or higher). While we strive to protect your data, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure.

8. Children's Privacy

Our Service is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe we have collected such information, please contact us and we will promptly delete it.

9. Your Privacy Rights

Depending on your location, you may have the right to access, correct, export, or delete your personal information. You can exercise most of these rights directly within the app, or by contacting us at support@start2finishmeals.com.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of significant changes by posting the new policy within the app or by email. Your continued use of the Service after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
