Iridara

Company registration details are being finalized and the contact details below will be confirmed before public release.

Privacy Policy

Effective date: [effective date — to be set at publication]

1. Who we are

Iridara (“the app”, “we”, “us”) is operated by {{OWNER}}, a Romanian authorised sole trader (Persoană Fizică Autorizată), registered office [registered office — to be completed], CUI [CUI — to be completed], trade register [ONRC registration number — to be completed]. We are the data controller for personal data processed through the app. Contact: {{EMAIL}}.

2. Scope

This policy explains what personal data we collect through the Iridara mobile and web app, why, the legal bases, who processes it on our behalf, how long we keep it, and your rights under the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and Romanian Law 190/2018.

3. What we collect

We do not sell your data, and we do not use it for third-party advertising or cross-app tracking.

4. How we use it

To identify foods and estimate nutrition from your photos/descriptions; to calculate your score and provide goal-aware coaching, follow-ups and progress tracking; to sync your data across your devices; to operate subscriptions; to keep the service secure; and to comply with the law. Aggregated or anonymised data may be used to improve the product.

5. Legal bases

6. AI processing

To analyse a meal, the photo or description you submit is sent through our secure server to Google’s Gemini API, which returns the structured analysis. This processing is to provide the service you requested. Your meal photos are downscaled and stripped of location/EXIF metadata before any upload. We rely on Google’s API terms regarding the handling of that content.

7. Processors and recipients

We share data only with processors acting on our instructions: Google (Firebase Authentication, Firestore, Cloud Storage, Firebase Analytics, and the Gemini API), RevenueCat (subscription management), and Apple / Google (app distribution and billing). Some process data on infrastructure that may be located outside the European Economic Area; such transfers rely on the safeguards (e.g. Standard Contractual Clauses) offered by those providers.

8. Your rights

Under the GDPR you have the right to access, rectify, erase (“right to be forgotten”), restrict, port, and object to the processing of your data, and to withdraw consent at any time (withdrawal does not affect prior processing). You can exercise the main rights directly in the app — Settings → Export my data (portability) and Settings → Delete my account & data (erasure; this permanently deletes your account and all associated data and is confirmed on our servers before it reports success) — or by emailing us. We respond within one month.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Romanian supervisory authority, the National Authority for the Supervision of Personal Data Processing (ANSPDCP) — Bd. G-ral Gheorghe Magheru 28–30, Bucharest; www.dataprotection.ro.

9. Retention

We keep your data for as long as your account exists. When you delete your account, we delete your personal data (meals, photos, profile, follow-ups, KPIs) from our live systems immediately. Residual copies persist in our encrypted backup for up to 98 days, after which they expire automatically; we do not restore a deleted account from a backup. We may retain minimal records where required by law.

10. Security

Data is stored in access-controlled, user-scoped databases (each user can reach only their own data), photos are size- and type-restricted, secrets are held server-side, and transport is encrypted (HTTPS/TLS). No system is perfectly secure, but we apply measures appropriate to the sensitivity of the data.

11. Children

Iridara is not directed to children. You must be at least 16 to create an account (the age of digital consent in Romania). Weight-management coaching is not offered to anyone under 18; younger users receive only balanced, adequate-eating guidance.

12. Changes

We may update this policy; we will post the new version with an updated effective date and, for material changes, ask for renewed consent where required.

Terms of Use

Effective date: [effective date — to be set at publication]

1. Acceptance and eligibility

By creating an account or using Iridara you agree to these Terms and to the Privacy Policy. You must be at least 16 to use the app; certain features (weight-management coaching) require you to be 18 or older. If you do not agree, do not use the app.

2. What Iridara is — and the health disclaimer

Iridara is a wellness and education tool that estimates nutrition from photos or descriptions and offers goal-aware guidance.

Iridara is not a medical device and does not provide medical, diagnostic, or treatment advice. Food identification, portions, macros and scores are estimates and can be wrong (typically ±20–25%). Nothing in the app is a substitute for professional medical, nutritional or psychological advice. Always consult a qualified professional before making significant dietary, health or medication decisions, and never disregard professional advice because of something in the app. If you have or may have an eating disorder or another medical condition, please seek professional support; Iridara is not designed to diagnose, treat or manage clinical conditions.

3. Your responsibilities

You are responsible for the accuracy of what you enter, for how you use the guidance, and for your own food, health and lifestyle decisions and their outcomes. Results are individual and not guaranteed.

4. Subscriptions and billing

Iridara offers a free tier and may offer paid subscriptions. Where sold, paid subscriptions are billed through the Apple App Store or Google Play and managed in your store account; they auto-renew unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the period ends. Prices are shown before purchase and may change with notice. Refunds follow the applicable store’s policy and your statutory consumer rights.

5. Acceptable use

Don’t misuse the app: no unlawful use, no attempts to break, overload, reverse-engineer or gain unauthorised access to the service or its AI backend, and no use of the app to harm yourself or others.

6. Intellectual property

The app, its content, scoring methodology and branding are owned by {{OWNER}} and protected by law. You keep ownership of the meal data and photos you submit; you grant us the limited licence needed to process and store that content to provide the service.

7. Disclaimers and limitation of liability

The app is provided “as is” and “as available” without warranties beyond those that cannot be excluded by law. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, {{OWNER}} is not liable for indirect or consequential losses, or for decisions made in reliance on the app’s estimates or guidance. Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited under Romanian or EU law, including your statutory consumer rights and liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence.

8. Termination

You may stop using the app and delete your account at any time. We may suspend or terminate access for breach of these Terms or where required by law.

9. Governing law and disputes

These Terms are governed by Romanian law. Mandatory consumer-protection rules of your country of residence still apply. EU consumers may use the European Commission’s Online Dispute Resolution platform (ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr).

10. Changes

We may update these Terms; continued use after they take effect means you accept them.
