Privacy Policy
Harmony Technologies ("we," "us," or "our") operates the Harmony Food Agent mobile application and website at harmonyfoodagent.com. Harmony Food Agent is created and owned by Damon Abramson. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, who we share it with, and your rights regarding that information.
Account Information
When you create an account, we collect your email address and a hashed password. We use Supabase for secure authentication. We do not store plain-text passwords.
Location Data
With your permission, we use your device's GPS coordinates or a ZIP code or city you enter. Location is used to find grocery stores, prices and products near you. It is saved on your device so you don't have to enter it again, and it is sent to our servers and to store data providers only to look up nearby stores. We do not keep a history of your location or attach it to your account.
Barcode Scans and Product Searches
When you scan a barcode or search for a product, we look up that product in the Open Food Facts database via our API proxy. Scanned barcodes may be cached temporarily to improve performance. We do not build a permanent profile of what you eat.
Family Profile Data
If you add family member profiles (name, age, health conditions, allergies, sensitivities, diets and goals), that data is stored securely in our database. It is used to personalize food scores, safety alerts, alternatives, meal plans and the answers Grandma Harmony gives you, and to choose which sponsored offers are relevant to show you inside the app (see Advertising below). It is never sold, and it is never shared with advertisers or with Google Analytics.
Conversations with Grandma Harmony
When you type or speak to Grandma Harmony or the agents, your message and the family profile details needed to answer it (such as conditions, allergies and diets) are sent to our AI provider, Anthropic, to generate the reply.
Usage Data
We use Google Analytics 4 to understand how the app is used, for example which features are opened, which products are scanned and which scores are viewed. Google Analytics uses cookies. We do not send names, email addresses, health conditions, allergies or other family profile details to Google Analytics.
Device Information
We may collect basic device information (operating system, browser type, app version) for debugging and performance purposes.
Harmony is free and is supported by advertising. If you do not have an ad-free subscription or an organization account, you may see two kinds of ads:
Google ads. We use Google AdSense to show ads. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to this website or other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to this site and/or other sites on the Internet. You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings, and you can opt out of other vendors' use of cookies for personalized advertising at www.aboutads.info/choices. Learn more in how Google uses information from sites that use its services.
Sponsored offers. Some placements show offers from partner brands and stores. We choose which offer to show inside Harmony, based on the product you are looking at, the stores near you and the needs in your family profile. Partners do not receive your name, email address, the location you entered, or any health or family profile information; they receive counts of how often their offer was shown and clicked. If a partner's offer includes a tracking image, viewing or clicking it lets that partner see standard technical information that any website receives, such as your IP address and browser type.
Ads never change a food score or a recommendation. An optional ad-free subscription removes all ads.
We use the following third-party services, each with their own privacy policies:
The app requests access to your device camera solely to scan product barcodes. Camera access is only active while you have the scanner open. We do not capture, store, or transmit images or video.
Location access is used to find grocery stores and organic alternatives near you. We request location only when you choose to share it. We do not track your location in the background or keep a history of where you have been.
Depending on your location, you may have the right to:
You can export your data or delete your account yourself at any time under Account & Security in the app. To exercise any other right, email us at privacy@harmonyfoodagent.com.
Harmony Food Agent is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.
We use industry-standard security measures including HTTPS encryption, hashed passwords, and access-controlled databases. No system is 100% secure, but we take reasonable steps to protect your data.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of significant changes by updating the "Last Updated" date above. Continued use of the app after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
