Nibbles Recipes iOS Privacy Policy
Who we are
Nibbles is a lunchbox meal planning app for parents of school-age children. It is developed and operated by [Nibbles Recipes] (“we”, “us”, or “our”). Questions about this policy can be directed to [contact@nibbleskitchen.com].
The short version
Nibbles is built local-first. Almost everything you enter — your children’s profiles, allergen information, pantry items, meal plans, and grocery lists — stays on your device and is never transmitted to us or any third party. The only exception is the subscription system, which uses RevenueCat to manage purchases. We do not run analytics, we do not sell data, and we do not create accounts.
What data Nibbles stores
Stored only on your device
All of the following data is stored locally using SwiftData and never leaves your device unless you explicitly back it up through iCloud (see below):
| Data | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Children’s profiles (name, birth month/year, avatar) | Personalise the planning experience per child |
| Allergen information per child | Filter recipes to ensure safety |
| Food dislikes per child | Tailor recipe suggestions |
| Parent/household name and cuisine preferences | Personalise suggestions |
| Pantry items | Enable pantry-aware meal planning |
| Meal plans (recipes assigned to dates and children) | Core planning functionality |
| Grocery list items | Shopping assistance |
| App preferences and settings | Persist your configuration between sessions |
We never receive, transmit, or have access to any of this information.
Subscription data — RevenueCat
Nibbles uses RevenueCat to manage in-app subscriptions and free trials. When you subscribe or restore a purchase, RevenueCat processes the transaction through Apple and returns an entitlement status to the app.
RevenueCat may collect:
- A randomly-generated anonymous device identifier (not linked to your name or Apple ID by us)
- Purchase receipt data (processed by Apple’s servers)
- App version and platform (for debugging subscription issues)
RevenueCat does not receive your children’s profiles, allergen data, pantry contents, or any other personal information you enter into Nibbles.
You can review RevenueCat’s privacy policy at: https://www.revenuecat.com/privacy
What data we do NOT collect
- We do not collect your name, email address, or contact information
- We do not run analytics or usage tracking of any kind
- We do not use advertising SDKs or advertising identifiers
- We do not access your camera, microphone, contacts, location, or photo library
- We do not create user accounts
- We do not transmit meal plans, recipes, or pantry data to any server
Children’s privacy
Nibbles is designed for use by parents, not by children directly. The app stores information about children (such as allergen profiles and food preferences) at the parent’s direction, for the sole purpose of planning safe and appropriate meals.
We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. All data entered about a child is stored only on the parent’s device and is not transmitted to us or any third party. Parents have full control over this data at all times and can delete it from within the app or by uninstalling the app.
If you are a parent and have concerns about your child’s data, please contact us at [YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS].
iCloud backup
If you have iCloud backup enabled on your device, iOS may include your Nibbles local database in your device backup as part of standard iCloud backup behaviour. This is controlled entirely by your iOS settings and Apple’s iCloud policies — not by Nibbles. We do not initiate, control, or have access to any iCloud backup of your data.
Note: Nibbles does not use CloudKit sync. iCloud backup (a general iOS feature) is different from in-app CloudKit sync, which we have not implemented.
Data retention and deletion
Because all data is stored locally on your device, you are in complete control:
- To delete all app data: Uninstall Nibbles from your device. This permanently removes the local database and all data within it.
- To delete specific data: Use the in-app settings to remove individual children’s profiles, pantry items, or other records.
- To remove subscription data: Contact RevenueCat support or manage your subscription through your Apple ID settings.
We do not hold copies of your data and cannot restore it if the app is uninstalled.
Third-party services
Nibbles integrates with one third-party service:
| Service | Purpose | Privacy policy |
|---|---|---|
| RevenueCat | Subscription and purchase management | https://www.revenuecat.com/privacy |
All other functionality — recipe data, planning logic, pantry tracking, grocery lists — runs entirely on-device with no third-party involvement.
App Store privacy labels
Nibbles declares the following in its App Store privacy nutrition label:
- Data Not Linked to You: Purchase history (handled by RevenueCat/Apple, used only to verify subscription status)
- Data Not Collected: All other categories
Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights regarding your personal data under laws such as the GDPR (EU/UK) or CCPA (California). Because we do not collect or hold your personal data, most of these rights are satisfied by default — your data is already on your device, under your control. For subscription-related data held by RevenueCat, please refer to their privacy policy and contact them directly.
If you have any privacy-related questions or requests, contact us at [contact@nibbleskitchen.com] and we will respond promptly.
Changes to this policy
If we make material changes to this policy — for example, if a future version of Nibbles adds analytics or a backend service — we will update the effective date and notify users via an in-app notice or App Store release notes before the change takes effect. We will not introduce data collection practices that contradict this policy without your knowledge.
