Privacy Policy

Summary

Tablia helps you plan home meals within your budget. We collect the minimum data needed, and this page explains exactly what and why.

In short: Most of your data stays on your device. What reaches us is a random device identifier, your account details if you choose to register, and the prices or suggestions you send us yourself. We never sell your data or share it for marketing.

Who we are

Tablia is developed and operated by Sanad System.

For anything related to your privacy or data:

Data we collect

1. Stored only on your device

This never reaches us and is deleted when you uninstall the app:

Meal plans you saved
Your pantry items
Preferences: household size, usual budget, governorate
A cached copy of prices so the app works offline

2. Data sent to us automatically

Data	Purpose
Random device identifier	Count how many devices use the app
Governorate (if entered)	Tune prices to your local market
App version	Know who needs an update
Number of plans created	Measure app usage
IP address	Abuse protection — deleted after 7 days

The identifier is a random string generated on your device. It is not linked to your name, phone number, or any personal identifier. You can turn off these statistics from the Account screen.

3. Data you provide yourself

When you register: name, email, governorate, household size
If you opt in to offers: your choice and when you made it — the box is optional and unticked by default
When you report a price: item name, quantity bought, amount paid, governorate
When you send feedback: your message and its category

Registration is optional. Most of the app works without it.

What we do not collect

Precise location — we only ask for a governorate if you choose to enter one
Contacts, photos, or files on your device
Camera or microphone access
Sensitive health or financial data
Your activity in other apps or across the web

How we use your data

Run the app and generate plans and shopping lists
Maintain and update market prices
Respond to your feedback or reported issues
Email you offers and discounts — only if you ticked “Send me offers and discounts”. You can withdraw any time from the "Account" screen, and every message includes a way to unsubscribe
Understand what users need in order to improve
Protect the service from abuse

We do not: sell your data, share it with advertising networks, or use your email for marketing without your consent.

Who can access your data

We rely on technical service providers to operate the app:

Provider	Role	Location
Neon	Database hosting	Frankfurt, Germany
Vercel	Server hosting	Europe
Google Play	App distribution	Per Google policy

These providers store data on our behalf and are not permitted to use it for their own purposes.

We may also disclose data if legally required by a competent authority.

Retention periods

IP address: 7 days
Device identifier: as long as you use the app

Children

Tablia is not directed at children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect their data. If we learn that a child under 16 has registered, we will delete the data immediately. Parents who believe their child has registered should contact us.

Security

We protect your data with measures including:

Fully encrypted connections between the app and our servers (HTTPS)
Admin access protected by hashed passwords and expiring sessions
Rate limits to prevent abuse

No internet service is 100% secure. We take reasonable measures, and will notify you if a breach affects your data.

Advertising and payments

The app is currently completely free with no advertising.

If we introduce advertising or paid features in future, we will update this policy and announce it inside the app beforehand.

Health disclaimer

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy as the app develops. Material changes will be announced inside the app, and the "last updated" date above will change.
