This is a reference translation. The Japanese version is the authoritative text. If there is any discrepancy between this translation and the Japanese original, the Japanese version prevails. View the Japanese version.

Repimame ("we") sets out below how we handle Users' personal information in the Service.

Article 1 (Personal information)

"Personal information" means personal information as defined in Japan's Act on the Protection of Personal Information: information about a living individual that can identify that individual by name, date of birth, address, telephone number, contact details or other description, together with data such as facial appearance, fingerprints and voiceprints, and identifiers such as a health insurance number that can identify an individual on their own.

Article 2 (How we collect personal information)

We collect the following when a User registers:

• Email address
• User name (nickname)
• Profile image (optional)

We also collect the following automatically as the Service is used:

• History of saving and viewing recipes
• History of creating and editing shopping lists
• History of creating meal plans
• History of using AI features (URL analysis, image analysis, shopping list adjustment)
• Date, time and frequency of app use
• Device information (OS, version and similar)

If you use a paid plan, we store the following. Payment details such as credit card numbers are not included:

• Your current plan, its status, and the next renewal date
• The product ID and transaction ID reported by the App Store

If you use a referral code, we store the following:

• Your own referral code
• The relationship between referrer and referred person, and the date and time it was applied

When a referral code is entered, we tell the referrer only the number of successful referrals. We do not disclose who the referred person is (email address, user name or similar).

Article 2-2 (Using the Service without registering)

The Service can be used without registering an account (as a guest). In that case:

• Saved recipes, meal plans and shopping lists are stored only on your device and are not sent to our servers. We cannot see their contents.
• If you reset the device, delete the app, or change devices without a backup, this data is lost. We cannot restore it.
• If you register an account later, the data stored on the device is carried over to that account and is thereafter managed on our servers.
• While using the Service as a guest, we may record usage that does not identify an individual (such as when the app is used and which features are used).

Article 3 (Purposes of collecting and using personal information)

• To provide and operate the Service
• To respond to enquiries from Users
• To inform Users about new features, updates and campaigns for services they use
• To contact Users as needed for maintenance and important notices
• To identify Users who breach the Terms of Service or attempt to use the Service for improper purposes, and to refuse them use
• To process payments for paid plans
• To grant referral benefits and prevent misuse
• To analyse usage trends and improve the Service

Article 4 (External services)

The Service works with the following external services.

1. Supabase (database, authentication, storage)

• Managing user account information
• Storing recipes, shopping lists and meal plan data
• Providing authentication and security

2. OpenAI API (AI features)

• Extracting recipe information in the URL analysis feature
• Recognising recipes in the image analysis feature
• AI adjustment of shopping lists

Data sent to OpenAI is used only for analysis and is not used to train OpenAI's models.

3. Amazon Web Services (AWS: AI processing and image storage)

• Running AI processing such as URL analysis, image analysis and shopping list adjustment (AWS Lambda / API Gateway)
• Storing and delivering recipe images (Amazon S3 / Amazon CloudFront). Images of recipes imported from external sites and social media may be copied to our storage so that they display reliably.

AI processing runs on AWS managed by us, and sends data to an external AI service (OpenAI) to the extent needed for analysis.

4. App Store / Google Play (payment processing)

• Processing in-app purchases for paid plans
• Managing subscriptions

Payment details such as credit card numbers are managed by each platform. We neither receive them nor store them on our servers. We store only the current plan, its status, the next renewal date, and the product ID and transaction ID reported by the App Store.

Article 5 (Providing personal information to third parties)

We do not provide personal information to third parties without the User's prior consent, except in the following cases:

• Where it is necessary to protect a person's life, body or property and it is difficult to obtain the person's consent
• Where it is particularly necessary to improve public health or promote the sound growth of children
• Where it is necessary to cooperate with a national or local government body, or a party commissioned by one, in carrying out duties prescribed by law

Article 6 (Disclosure, correction and deletion of personal information)

1. When a person requests disclosure of their personal information, we will disclose it to that person without delay.

2. Users may request that we correct, add to, or delete their personal information if the information we hold is incorrect.

3. Deleting your account allows you to delete all related personal information.

Article 7 (Security)

We take the following security measures to prevent loss, destruction, alteration and leakage of personal information:

• Encryption of communications with SSL/TLS
• Passwords are not held by us; they are hashed and managed in the authentication platform
• Daily database backups
• Appropriate management of access permissions

Article 8 (Changes to this Policy)

1. Except for matters prescribed by law or otherwise specified in this Policy, we may change this Policy without notice to Users.

2. The revised Privacy Policy takes effect when it is posted on this website.
