The data controller for HONED is the operator of HONED, contactable at HONED-DASHBOARD@outlook.com. HONED is operated from the Netherlands and applies the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
Your data is stored on your device (in your browser’s local storage) and, when you are signed in, in your private account in our cloud database so it can sync across your devices. The cloud database is hosted in the European Union.
| Purpose | Legal basis (GDPR Art. 6) |
|---|---|
| Provide your account and sync your data | Performance of a contract |
| AI meal estimation, when you use it | Your request / consent |
| Process and activate Premium subscriptions | Performance of a contract |
| Keep the service secure and prevent abuse | Legitimate interests |
| Comply with legal/accounting obligations | Legal obligation |
Where you enter sensitive information (such as health or body data), you do so on your own initiative and with your consent, for the purpose of tracking it for yourself. You can withdraw consent and delete this data at any time.
We use a small number of trusted providers. We do not sell your personal data to anyone.
| Provider | What they do | What is shared |
|---|---|---|
| Supabase | Database, authentication, and sync (EU-hosted) | Your account and app data |
| Vercel | Hosting of the app and its serverless functions | Technical request data |
| Anthropic (Claude) | AI meal photo/description estimation | The photo or text you submit for a scan. Sent via the API, which is not used to train their models. |
| PayPal | Payments and subscription billing | Payment details you give PayPal; we receive a subscription identifier |
| Twelve Data | Live stock/ETF prices on the finance page | Only the ticker symbols you track — no personal data |
| USDA FoodData Central & Open Food Facts | Nutrition lookups for meals | Only a generic food search term — no personal data |
| Discord (operator notification) | Notifies the operator when someone subscribes to Premium, so it can be activated | Your user id, email, username, and chosen plan — sent only when you subscribe |
Some providers (e.g. Anthropic, PayPal) may process data outside the EU. Where that happens, transfers are covered by appropriate safeguards such as the providers’ standard contractual clauses.
We keep your data for as long as your account exists. When you delete your account (or ask us to delete your data), we remove it from the cloud database. Data stored locally on your device is cleared when you sign out and clear the app’s storage on that device. Payment records may be retained by PayPal and for accounting purposes as required by law.
Under the GDPR you have the right to: access your data; correct it; delete it (“right to be forgotten”); restrict or object to processing; receive a copy in a portable format; and withdraw consent at any time. To exercise any of these, email HONED-DASHBOARD@outlook.com.
You can request full deletion of your account and associated cloud data at any time by emailing HONED-DASHBOARD@outlook.com from your account email. We will action it without undue delay.
Access to your cloud data is protected by your login and database access rules so that you can only read and write your own records. Passwords are stored hashed by our auth provider. No system is perfectly secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security, but we take reasonable measures to protect your data.
HONED is not intended for anyone under 16. If you believe a child under 16 has provided us data, contact us and we will delete it.
HONED does not use advertising or third-party tracking cookies. We use your browser’s local storage to keep your app data on your device and to remember that you accepted these policies. This is essential to how the app works.
We may update this policy. If changes are material we will ask you to accept the updated version. The “Last updated” date above reflects the current version.
If you have a concern we could not resolve, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Dutch Data Protection Authority (Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens) or your local supervisory authority.
