Eat First ("the app") is a fridge to-do list for Android. This policy explains what data the app handles. In short: your food list never leaves your phone. Apart from what Google's ad service collects to show the banner ad, the only data that leaves the device is a crash report if the app hits an error and an anonymous app-open count (see Crash reports and usage statistics).

Data you enter

Food names, Eat By dates and whether you ate, threw away or deleted an item are stored only in a database on your device. There is no account, no login and no Eat First server, so the developer never receives or sees this data. Uninstalling the app or clearing its storage deletes it.

Notifications

Daily reminders are scheduled and shown locally on your device. No push service is used. You can turn them off in the app's Settings or in Android settings.

Advertising (Google AdMob)

The app shows banner ads from Google AdMob. To serve, measure and protect ads, Google may collect and process information from your device, including:

• device identifiers such as the Android advertising ID,
• IP address and the approximate location derived from it,
• interactions with ads, and diagnostic information about ad performance.

This data is handled by Google under the Google Privacy Policy; see also How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services. Data is encrypted in transit. Where required by law (for example in the EEA and the UK), the app asks for your consent through Google's consent form before personalized ads are shown, and you can change your choice any time from Settings → Ad privacy options in the app.

You can reset or delete your advertising ID, or opt out of personalized ads, in Android Settings → Google → Ads (or Settings → Privacy → Ads, depending on your device).

Crash reports and usage statistics

Release versions of the app send two kinds of technical data so we can fix problems and know how many people use it:

• Crash reports (Sentry): when the app hits an error, the error message, where in the code it happened, your device model, OS version and app version. No screenshots, no record of what you were doing, and nothing from your food list.
• Usage count (PostHog): an "app opened" event with a random ID created for this installation. It contains nothing from your food list and is not linked to your name, email or advertising ID.

Sentry (Functional Software, Inc., USA) and PostHog (PostHog Inc., USA) process this data only on our behalf. It is encrypted in transit.

Children

The app is not directed at children under 13, and the developer does not knowingly collect personal information from children.
