Privacy Policy for PRūF

Effective Date: March 10, 2026
Last Updated: March 10, 2026

Plain-Language Summary

PRūF can be used without creating an account. If you choose to sign in, we collect your email address and sign-in details from Apple, Google, or email/password so we can keep your account working. We store the food preferences and profile answers you choose, such as allergens, additives, oils, nutrition priorities, favorite restaurants, and similar personalization settings. We collect basic app analytics, search and feature interaction data, device and app diagnostics, and purchase status so the app works, stays reliable, and can improve over time. If you enable notifications, we store your push token and notification settings. If you send feedback or report an issue, we store what you submit. We do not collect camera, microphone, photos, contacts, precise location, or Apple Health data.

If you visit our website, we may also collect basic website analytics and performance information.

Scope

This Privacy Policy applies to the PRūF iOS app, prufapp.com, and related account and support services operated by PRūF Labs LLC ("PRūF," "we," "our," or "us").

Information We Collect

Information you choose to give us

  • Account and sign-in information: Email address, sign-in provider details, and optional profile information you share through Apple Sign-In, Google Sign-In, or email/password.
  • Preferences and profile answers: Allergens, additives and oils to avoid, nutrition priorities, favorite restaurants, diet preferences, fast-food frequency, motivations, referral source, and email preferences.
  • User submissions: Restaurant requests, feedback, support messages, ad reports, and ingredient or menu accuracy reports, including any optional email address or notes you include.
  • Notifications: If you enable notifications, we collect your push token and notification settings.

Information we collect automatically

  • Usage data: Searches, screen views, taps, feature usage, menu views, saved actions, and similar product interaction data.
  • Diagnostics and security data: Error logs, authentication attempt logs, latency, and other reliability or abuse-prevention signals.
  • Device and app information: Device model, operating system version, app version, build number, region, and install or account identifiers used to keep the app working.
  • Purchase data: Subscription, entitlement, and restore status needed to unlock premium features.

Some data stays only on your device, such as recent views, certain caches, and local saved-item state. Saved items sync to your account only when you are signed in.

Website analytics

If you visit prufapp.com, our website may collect limited traffic and performance analytics.

How We Use Information

  • Provide ingredient, allergen, additive, oil, and nutrition-related app features.
  • Remember your preferences and personalize the app experience.
  • Create and maintain your account when you choose to sign in.
  • Send transactional account or service messages, such as password reset or important notices.
  • Honor your notification and email settings, including marketing or newsletter choices that you can change in the app.
  • Process purchases, verify entitlements, and restore premium access.
  • Respond to support requests and review feedback or report submissions.
  • Measure app usage, diagnose issues, improve reliability, and guide product decisions.
  • Show ads in eligible free experiences and measure ad performance or subscription attribution when those features are enabled.

Advertising, Consent, and Attribution

The free version of PRūF may show Google banner ads. Depending on your consent and platform permissions, ads may be personalized or non-personalized.

If advertising or attribution features are enabled in your version of the app and you allow tracking, advertising or measurement partners may use device identifiers to measure ad performance, attribute installs, and record subscription events.

Analytics and Session Replay

We use analytics tools to understand how PRūF is used and where it fails. We also use sampled session replay to help diagnose issues and improve flows. Session replay is not always on. It is configured to auto-mask common text, image, web, and map content, and we mark sensitive sign-in and report-entry fields as sensitive before capture.

How We Share Information

We do not sell your personal information to data brokers. We share limited information only when needed to operate the app, support purchases, measure performance, or comply with law.

  • Supabase: Account, profile, preference, notification, analytics, and app data storage.
  • Apple and Google: Sign-in, platform, and purchase services.
  • Mixpanel: App analytics and sampled session replay.
  • Google advertising and consent tools: Ad delivery, measurement, and privacy choices in the free app experience.
  • Advertising and attribution partners: Services such as TikTok when enabled in the app configuration.

We may also disclose information if required by law or if reasonably necessary to protect users, the app, or our rights.

Data Security

We use reasonable technical and organizational safeguards designed to protect your information, including encrypted network transport, authenticated account access, and access controls for the systems we manage. No method of transmission or storage is perfectly secure.

Your Choices and Rights

  • You can use PRūF without creating an account.
  • You can update your preferences, profile answers, and email choices in the app.
  • You can turn notifications on or off through iOS settings and app controls where available.
  • You can request account deletion from the app. We may keep limited records when needed for security, billing, fraud prevention, or legal compliance.
  • Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or limit certain uses of your personal information. Contact us to make a privacy request.

Data Retention

We keep information for as long as reasonably necessary to provide PRūF, support purchases, maintain security, resolve disputes, enforce agreements, and comply with legal obligations. Local data stored on your device remains there until you clear it or remove the app.

Children's Privacy

PRūF is not intended for children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

International Transfers

Your information may be processed in countries other than your own. When required, we rely on appropriate safeguards for those transfers.

Third-Party Services and Links

PRūF may link to third-party services such as restaurant websites or third-party sign-in providers. Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will post the updated version on this page and update the effective and last updated dates above.
