Privacy Policy
In short:
- We collect what Rawly needs to work, and nothing to track you. No ads, no selling of data, no tracking across apps or websites.
- Allergies, intolerances and diets can reveal health information. We only store them after you give explicit, separate consent, and you can withdraw it at any time, which deletes them.
- Package photos are sent to an AI service only after you agree. They are never stored.
- You can export or delete everything from the app: Profile → Export my data / Delete account.
1. Who is responsible
The controller of your personal data is Gustav Littau, Skovfyrvangen 6, 5270 Odense N, Denmark. Contact for all privacy questions and requests: getrawly@gmail.com.
2. What we collect and why
| Data | Why | Legal basis (GDPR) |
|---|---|---|
| Account: email address, password (stored only as a secure hash), or your Apple sign-in identifier and the email Apple shares (which may be a private relay address) | To create your account, sign you in and send account emails such as 6-digit codes | Contract |
| Profile: first name, the answers you give in onboarding (such as goals and quiz results), time zone and region | To personalise Rawly and count your diary days in your own time zone | Contract |
| Health-related data: allergens, diets and ingredients to avoid, for you and your household members | To check products against them | Explicit consent (Art. 6(1)(a) and 9(2)(a)) |
| Household members: a nickname, an age band and allergens (and diets for adults only) | To check products for the people you shop for | Explicit consent |
| Diary: products you choose to log, when, for whom, their Rawly Score and number of flags; your daily averages and weekly cards | To show your diary, averages, streaks and weekly card | Contract |
| Package photos | To read the label and identify the product | Consent |
| Barcodes and searches you look up | To find products | Contract |
| Subscription: your plan, its status and renewal dates (not your payment details, which only Apple sees) | To give you access to Rawly Premium | Contract |
| Notifications: a device token and your notification settings | To send the notifications you turned on | Consent |
| Consent records: what you agreed to or withdrew, which version and when | To prove and respect your choices | Legal obligation |
| Security data: counters of how many lookups and photos an account makes, and basic request logs | To prevent abuse and keep costs fair | Legitimate interests |
Scanning a product doesn't save anything to your diary: only products you choose to log are stored. Recently viewed products, recent searches and cached product data stay on your device.
3. Health data and consent
Allergies, intolerances and diets can reveal information about your health or beliefs. Rawly asks for explicit, separate consent before storing them, records that consent with its date and version, and deletes this data at once if you withdraw consent (Profile → Privacy). Rawly works without it, but can't then check products for allergens and diets.
4. Children
Rawly is for people aged 16 and over and is not directed at children. A parent or guardian can add a child as a household profile with the minimum data: a nickname, an age band and allergens. We don't store diets, photos or any other details about children, never share children's data, never include it in shareable weekly cards, and never use it for analytics or marketing.
5. AI photo identification
When you photograph a package, Rawly first shrinks the photo and removes all metadata (including location) on your phone. Only after you've agreed is it sent, through our server, to Anthropic's Claude AI service, which reads the text on the label. The result is checked by our server and shown to you, labelled as read from your photo. Photos are not stored by Rawly; they exist only while the request is processed. Anthropic processes them under its commercial terms, which do not allow using them to train its models. Please photograph only the packaging, not people.
6. Who processes your data
We use these service providers (processors). Each processes data only on our instructions, under a data processing agreement:
| Provider | Purpose | Location of processing |
|---|---|---|
| Supabase, Inc. | Database, sign-in and server functions | EU (Ireland) |
| Anthropic, PBC | Reading package photos (only with your consent) | United States |
| RevenueCat, Inc. | Managing subscription status | United States |
| Resend, Inc. | Sending account emails such as codes | EU (Ireland) |
| Apple Inc. | Sign in with Apple, App Store payments and push notifications | Apple's infrastructure |
| Cloudflare, Inc. | Hosting this website | Global network |
Product data comes from Open Food Facts. When you're signed in, our server looks products up for you, so Open Food Facts doesn't see who you are. If you look up a barcode while signed out, your phone contacts Open Food Facts directly, which then sees your IP address.
We don't sell your personal data, share it for targeted advertising, or let anyone use it for their own purposes. We may disclose data if the law requires it.
7. International transfers
Our database is in the EU. When a provider processes data outside the EU/EEA, such as in the United States, we rely on the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses or another lawful transfer mechanism, together with additional safeguards where needed.
8. How long we keep data
| Data | Kept |
|---|---|
| Account, profile, health data, household, diary and subscription status | Until you delete them or your account |
| Consent records | While your account exists, as proof of consent |
| Weekly cards | 2 years |
| Notification device tokens | Until you turn notifications off, Apple rejects the token, or 1 year without use |
| Lookup and photo counters | 2 days |
| Package photos | Not stored |
| Record that an account was deleted (no content) | 2 years |
| Encrypted backups | Overwritten within 30 days |
Automated jobs delete data when these periods end.
9. Your rights
You can:
- access your data and take it with you: Profile → Export my data gives a machine-readable file;
- correct it in the app or by asking us;
- delete it: Profile → Delete account (see Delete your data);
- withdraw consent at any time in Profile → Privacy, without affecting what happened before;
- object to or ask us to restrict processing.
Email getrawly@gmail.com for anything you can't do in the app. We answer within one month and may need to confirm it's really you. You can also complain to a data protection authority: in Denmark, Datatilsynet, or the authority where you live or work.
10. Security
Data is encrypted in transit and at rest. Each person's data is separated in the database so that only they can reach it. Sign-in tokens are stored in your iPhone's Keychain, and access to our systems is limited and logged. No system is perfectly secure; if a breach affects you, we will tell you and the authorities as the law requires.
11. No tracking
Rawly doesn't track you across other companies' apps or websites, doesn't show ads and doesn't use advertising identifiers. The Rawly score and flags are automated assessments of products, not decisions about you.
12. Region-specific information
United Kingdom
The UK GDPR gives you the same rights as above. You can complain to the Information Commissioner's Office.
United States
Under the California Consumer Privacy Act and similar state laws, you have the right to know, access, correct and delete your personal information, and not to be discriminated against for using these rights. In the last 12 months we collected the categories in section 2 (identifiers, account and profile information, sensitive information about allergies and diets with your consent, and app activity) for the purposes in section 2, from you and your device. We have not sold or shared personal information for cross-context behavioural advertising, and we use sensitive personal information only to provide the service you asked for. Washington and Nevada residents: see our Consumer Health Data Privacy Policy.
Canada
Gustav Littau is responsible for protecting personal information under PIPEDA and Quebec's Law 25 and can be reached at the address above. Some providers store data outside Canada (see section 6), where it may be accessible to authorities under local law. You may complain to the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada or, in Quebec, the Commission d'accès à l'information.
Australia
We handle personal information in line with the Australian Privacy Principles. Some data is stored outside Australia (see section 6). If you're not satisfied with our response to a complaint, you can contact the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner.
Brazil
Under the LGPD you have the rights in section 9, including confirmation of processing and information about sharing. You can complain to the Autoridade Nacional de Proteção de Dados (ANPD).
13. This website
getrawly.app uses no cookies, analytics or trackers. Our hosting provider, Cloudflare, processes technical data such as IP addresses to deliver and protect the site.
14. Changes
We'll update this policy when Rawly changes and show the date at the top. If a change affects how we use data you've already given us, we'll tell you in the app first and, where needed, ask for your consent again.
