HalalScan ("we", "us") values your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use our mobile application.

1. Information We Collect

A. Personal Information

  • Account Data: When you sign up, we collect your email address and profile information via our authentication provider (e.g., Clerk, Google Sign-In).
  • Camera Data: To provide our core scanning service, we collect and process images of food products, barcodes, and ingredients lists that you capture via the camera.

B. Usage Data

We collect anonymous data on how you interact with the app (e.g., screens visited, features used) to improve performance and user experience.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use your data strictly to:

  • Provide the Service: Processing your photos to generate AI-based halal verification and ingredient analysis.
  • User History: Storing your scan results so you can revisit them in your "History" tab.
  • Account Management: Managing your subscription and preferences (e.g., selected Madhabs).
  • Improve Accuracy: We may use anonymized scan data to refine our OCR and ingredient recognition databases.

3. Data Retention

We retain your scan history and account data so you can view your past activity. You may delete specific scans or your entire account at any time within the app settings, which will permanently remove this data from our servers.

4. Data Security

We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your data. However, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure.
