Privacy Policy
Allerllama is designed to help users identify allergens and understand ingredient information safely and conveniently. We take privacy seriously and only request the minimum permissions needed for the app to function. All permissions are optional and can be enabled or disabled at any time through the app's settings.
Information We Collect
Allerllama does not collect, store, or share any personal data. The app processes information only when the user interacts with it (for example, scanning a product label or importing a photo). No personal information is transmitted to our servers.
Camera Access
The camera is used solely for scanning ingredient labels. Images are processed on-device and are never stored or uploaded. Users can disable camera access at any time through the in-app settings.
Photo Library Access
Photo library access is used only when a user chooses to import an image of a food label instead of scanning it live. Imported images are processed on-device and are not stored or transmitted. Users can disable photo-library access at any time.
Microphone Access
The microphone is used only for optional voice-based search. Audio is processed on-device and is never recorded, stored, or uploaded. Users can disable microphone access at any time.
Location Access
Allerllama uses location data to automatically detect the user's current country and prioritize the correct regional food-product databases. This helps ensure accurate allergen detection and translation when traveling.
• Location data is not stored, not shared, and not used for tracking
• Background location is used only to update country detection periodically
• Users can disable location access — including background location — at any time through the in-app settings
Notifications
Notifications are used only for optional reminders and informational alerts. The app does not use background remote notifications or tracking technologies.
No Tracking
Allerllama does not track users, does not use advertising identifiers, and does not share data with third parties. The app does not use analytics that identify individual users.
Data Security
All processing is performed on-device or through user-initiated API requests to public food-product databases. We do not collect or store personal information on our servers.
User Controls
The app includes clear toggles that allow users to enable or disable:
• Camera access
• Microphone access
• Photo-library access
• Location access (foreground and background)
• Notifications
Users have full control over how the app interacts with their device.
Changes to This Policy
If we make changes to this policy, we will update the version displayed within the app and on our website.
