Privacy Policy
Last Updated: February 2026
ILLYRIA Solutions LLC ("Company," "we," "us," or "our") operates the FreshFolio mobile application ("App"). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use the App.
Information We Collect
We collect only the information necessary to operate and improve the App:
- Account Information: Email address, display name, and authentication data provided during sign-up.
- Pantry Data: Food items, expiration dates, quantities, locations, categories, and purchase information you enter or scan.
- Barcode Data: UPC/barcode numbers scanned using your device camera to look up product information.
- Product Information: Product names, brands, and images retrieved from third-party databases (OpenFoodFacts) based on scanned barcodes.
- Shopping Lists: Items you add to shopping lists and their completion status.
- Usage Data: Basic analytics on app usage, device information, crash reporting, and diagnostic data to improve performance.
- Communication Data: Email addresses for sharing pantries and sending expiration notifications.
- Device Identifiers: Unique device push tokens used to deliver expiration alerts and notifications.
How We Use Information
Information is used solely to:
- Provide core app functionality (pantry management, barcode scanning, expiration tracking, shopping lists).
- Send expiration date reminders and low stock alerts.
- Retrieve product information from third-party databases.
- Improve app reliability and user experience.
- Communicate service-related updates and reminders.
- Ensure security and prevent abuse.
Data Sharing and Third Parties
We do not sell, rent, trade, or share user information with third parties for marketing purposes. Data may be shared with:
- Service Providers: Firebase (Google) for hosting, authentication, and database services; OpenFoodFacts API for product barcode lookups; Zoho Mail for email delivery.
- Legal Requirements: If required by law or to protect rights and safety.
Third-Party APIs
The App uses the OpenFoodFacts API to retrieve product information when you scan barcodes. When you scan a barcode, the barcode number is sent to OpenFoodFacts servers to retrieve product details (name, brand, image). OpenFoodFacts is a non-profit, open database. Their privacy policy can be found at https://world.openfoodfacts.org/privacy.
Data Security
We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect your data. This includes encryption in transit and at rest, access controls, and regular security reviews.
Data Retention
We retain data only as long as necessary:
- Account data: Until account deletion.
- Pantry data: As long as your account exists or per user request.
- Transaction logs: Up to 90 days for debugging.
- Barcode lookup cache: Up to 6 months to reduce API calls.
Your Rights
Depending on your location, you may have rights to:
- Access your data.
- Correct inaccurate data.
- Delete your data (via account deletion).
- Export your data.
- Opt-out of non-essential communications.
