Privacy Policy
Your privacy matters
Information you provide
milkberi collects the information you enter in the app, such as your account details (email, username, name), profile information (bio, profile photo), onboarding metrics (weight, height, age, gender, activity level, and goals), food or nutrition entries you log (meal names, nutrients, servings, timestamps, and optional photos), and fasting data you record (fasting start and end times, duration, fasting type, and any goals or notes associated with a fasting session).
Social and community data
If you use social features, we store your posts, post photos, friend connections, friend requests, and any reports you submit.
Permissions and device data
milkberi requests access to your camera and photo library so you can capture or upload meal photos. We also store limited data locally on your device to keep the app fast and available offline.
Third-party services
We use trusted service providers to operate the app (such as hosting, storage, and data processing). When you use certain features, requests may be handled by these providers on our behalf. To keep the community safe, posts and photos you share or upload may be checked by automated tools run by these providers to detect content that breaks our community guidelines. Only the content itself is sent, not your name, username, or email address.
How we use your data
We use your data to provide the core features of milkberi, such as meal logging, nutrition summaries, fasting tracking, goal tracking, and social sharing. We also use it to troubleshoot issues and improve the app. With your permission, we may feature recipes you have chosen to share (including their photos and your username) in milkberi's own promotional content and ads. This applies only to recipes where you have turned that on.
Sharing and visibility
Your profile and posts can be visible to others depending on your privacy settings. We do not sell your personal information.
Data retention
We keep your data as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the service. You can delete specific entries in the app and request full deletion by contacting us.
Banned or suspended accounts
If your account is suspended or banned for violating our terms of service or community guidelines, we may retain certain data associated with your account for moderation, security, and enforcement purposes. This may include your email address, username, device identifiers, IP addresses, and records of violations, moderation actions, or reports, including reports involving content that promotes, glorifies, or instructs eating-disorder-harmful behavior, self-harm, or suicide. This data helps us prevent banned users from creating new accounts and protects the community from repeat offenders. Data retained for banned accounts will be kept for as long as necessary to enforce our policies and may be shared with law enforcement if required by law or in response to illegal activity. If you believe your account was banned in error, you may contact us to appeal and request review of the retained data.
Account deletion and data removal
You have the right to delete your account at any time through the Account Settings page. When you delete your account, all personally identifiable information associated with your account will be permanently removed from our systems within a reasonable timeframe. This includes your profile information, meal logs, recipes, custom foods, social posts, friend connections, and any other user-generated content. We may retain certain anonymized or aggregated data that cannot be linked back to you for analytics, legal compliance, or security purposes. Account deletion is immediate and irreversible—once deleted, your data cannot be recovered.
Security
We use reasonable safeguards to protect your information, but no method of transmission or storage is 100% secure.
Data incidents
While we take security seriously, we cannot guarantee that unauthorized access, loss, or misuse will never occur. To the extent permitted by law, milkberi is not liable for damages arising from security incidents or data breaches caused by third parties, network failures, or events outside our control.
