Zenibara Privacy Policy
This policy explains what data the Zenibara app (“the app”) uses, why, and what you can do about it. By using the app you accept this policy.
1. Who is responsible
Zenibara is an app by Ke Malvado (Emiliano Martín Corrales, Argentina). Contact: kemalvado3d@gmail.com.
2. Data we use
- Account: email, name, profile photo (if you sign in with Google, your Google account photo) and your friend code.
- Health and food (entered by you): age, sex, height, weight and its history, goal, activity level, meal-plan questionnaire answers (likes, restrictions and health conditions you report so the plan is safe), logged meals, meal photos and water.
- Conversations with Zeni: the questions you ask the chat and its answers.
- Community: friends, requests, chats, groups, clubs, challenges, leaderboard scores and, if you choose, your link with a nutritionist. If you post in the feed or in a club: the text, the photos (meals, workouts or your before/after progress), comments and reactions.
- App usage: Zeni progress, seeds, streak, achievements and daily usage counters (games, questions, analyzed photos and videos watched).
- Preferences: the app language and your time zone, to send you notifications in your language and at the right time.
- Device: a token to send you notifications, app integrity checks (Google Play Integrity / Firebase App Check) and, on the free plan only, the device advertising ID.
- Purchases: subscriptions and packs are paid through Google Play. We never receive or store your card details.
The app does not use your GPS location. You choose your country.
Health Connect (optional, Android): if you connect it, the app only reads today's steps, workouts, active calories and weight (and your weight from the last 30 days) to show them on the Today screen and, if you choose, add part of the calories you burned to your calorie goal. This data is used on your phone: it is not uploaded to our servers, not shared with third parties, not used for advertising, and the app never writes to Health Connect. Your weight is only saved to your account if you tap “Update”. You can disconnect it at any time from the app or from Health Connect. Use of this data complies with the Health Connect Permissions policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
Crash reports: if the app fails or closes unexpectedly, a technical report is sent to Firebase Crashlytics (Google) with the device model and OS, the app version, the part of the code where the error happened and an internal identifier of your account. We use it only to find and fix bugs. It does not include your name, your email or any health or food data, and it is not used for advertising.
Usage statistics: if you are 18 or older and live where the law does not require prior consent, we use Google Analytics for Firebase to learn, in aggregate, which countries and Android versions the app is used on, how users find it (for example, from Google Play) and which sections are used. It collects usage data and an app installation identifier; it does not collect your name, your email, the advertising ID or any health or food data, and it is not used to personalize ads. It is turned off for users under 18 and in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, Switzerland and places that require consent.
3. Why we use it
- To provide the app: calorie and macro tracking, meal plans, stats, reminders, Zeni and the community.
- To analyze meal photos, build plans and answer your questions to Zeni with artificial intelligence.
- To automatically review what you post in the community so it stays a safe place.
- To translate texts when you ask for it or change the app language.
- To apply each plan's limits, prevent abuse and keep the app secure.
- To show rewarded videos on the free plan.
- To understand overall app usage (counts only, never health data) and improve it.
We do not sell your data.
4. Artificial intelligence
When you take a meal photo, build a plan or ask Zeni something, the needed information (the photo, your questionnaire answers, or your question with a summary of your day) is sent to Google Gemini through Firebase AI Logic to generate the answer. What you post in the community (text and photos) is automatically reviewed by AI (Google Gemini and Google Cloud Vision) before it is shown, to block inappropriate content. If you tap “See translation”, that text is sent to Gemini to be translated, and if you change the app language your meal plan is translated the same way. Answers are for guidance only and do not replace advice from a health professional.
5. What other people see
Other users can see your name, photo, friend code, Zeni, your streak and your game and challenge scores. What you post in the Community feed (text, photos and comments) can be seen by all adult users of the app, and what you share in a club by its members: think twice before uploading photos of your body. You can delete your posts at any time and report other people's. The app does not show your weight, height, calories, goal or BMI to other users. A verified nutritionist can only see your plan, questionnaire, meals and weight if you authorize it, and you can stop sharing at any time.
6. Third-party services
- Google Firebase (sign-in, database, photo storage, functions, notifications, App Check, Crashlytics and Google Analytics).
- Google Gemini (artificial intelligence, via Firebase AI Logic and Vertex AI).
- Google Cloud Vision (automatic review of photos posted in the community).
- Google AdMob (rewarded videos and ads in the feed, free plan only).
- Google Play (downloads, payments and integrity).
- Open Food Facts (only receives the barcode number you scan).
These services may process data on servers outside your country (for example, Brazil or the United States), with their own safeguards.
7. Advertising
On the free plan you can choose to watch videos to earn rewards and, in the Community feed, a post labeled “Sponsored” appears from time to time. Google AdMob may use your device advertising ID to serve and measure ads. If you live in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland (or anywhere the law requires it), we will ask for your consent, and you can change it in Profile → Ad privacy. You can also reset or turn off the advertising ID in your Android settings. Paid plans show no ads.
8. How long we keep it
We keep your data while you have an account. Meal photos are deleted automatically after 30 days. Feed posts are deleted after 48 hours (7 days if they become featured), with their photos and comments, and photos shared in clubs after 30 days. If you delete your account, we delete your data within 30 days, except what the law requires us to keep. See how to delete your account.
9. Your rights
You can ask to access, correct, export or delete your data, object to its use or withdraw your consent by writing to kemalvado3d@gmail.com. You can edit much of your data directly in the app. You may also contact your local data protection authority.
10. Security
Data is encrypted in transit and stored in Google Firebase with access rules: only you (and a nutritionist you authorize) can read your private data.
11. Children
The minimum age to use the app is 14. Users aged 14 to 17 need the authorization of a responsible adult (requested inside the app) and have limited use: no community (feed, clubs, chats or friends), no diet plans, no weight-loss goal and no Google Analytics usage statistics. AI meal plans are only for people 18 and older. If you are a parent or guardian and want to review or delete a minor's data, write to kemalvado3d@gmail.com.
12. Changes
If we change this policy, we will update the date above and, for important changes, let you know in the app.
