Privacy Policy

Last updated: May 10, 2026

Overview

DinDin ("the App") is a meal planning and grocery list app built for households. This privacy policy explains what data we collect, how we use it, and your rights.

Data We Collect

Account Information

When you sign in with Google or Apple, we receive:

• Your email address
• Your display name (if provided by your sign-in provider)

You also provide:

• A display name (required during setup)
• A profile icon (emoji selection)

App Data

Data you create while using the App:

• Meal plans and meal names
• Grocery lists and grocery items
• Past meal records and ratings

• Household name and membership

Data We Do NOT Collect

• Location data

• Photos or camera data
• Health or fitness data

• Analytics or tracking data

How We Use Your Data

Your data is used solely to provide the App's features:

• Displaying your profile to household members
• Sharing meal plans and grocery lists within your household
• Saving your meal history and preferences

We do not:

• Sell your data to third parties
• Share your data with advertisers
• Use your data for profiling or targeted advertising
• Track your activity across other apps or websites

Data Storage and Security

• Account sign-in is handled by Google Firebase Authentication
• Your app data is stored in a secured database on our private server infrastructure
• Data is encrypted in transit using HTTPS/TLS
• Access to household data is restricted to members of that household

Data Sharing

Your data is shared only with members of your household:

• Household members can see your display name, email, and profile icon
• Household members can see shared meal plans, grocery lists, and ideas

No data is shared with third parties, except as required by our infrastructure providers to operate the service.

Your Rights

You can:

• Update your profile at any time through the App's Settings screen
• Leave a household to stop sharing data with its members
• Delete your data by leaving your household and signing out — household data you contributed (meals, grocery items) remains accessible to other household members
• Request account deletion by contacting us at the email below

Account Deletion

To delete your account and personal data, email us at support@dindinlists.app with the subject line "DinDin Account Deletion Request" and the email address associated with your account. We will process your request within 30 days and confirm by email. Shared household data you contributed (meal names, grocery items, ideas) may remain accessible to other household members, as it is part of the shared household and not solely tied to your account.

Children's Privacy

DinDin is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Changes will be reflected by the "Last updated" date at the top of this page.
