Jackie's List ("the App", "we", "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This policy explains what data we collect, why, and how we handle it.
Account data: If you sign in with Google, we receive your name, email, and profile photo from Google. This is used solely for authentication and displaying your profile.
Shopping list data: The lists, items, recipes, meal plans, and pantry items you create are stored locally on your device and, if you sign in, synced to Google Cloud Firestore for cross-device access and sharing.
Preferences: Your app settings (theme, language, currency, AI opt-in) are stored locally on your device only.
AI features (opt-in only): If you enable the AI assistant and provide your own API key, text prompts and photos you submit are sent directly to Google's Generative AI (Gemini) service. We do not store, log, or have access to your AI interactions — they go directly from your device to Google.
Your data is stored in Google Cloud Firestore, which provides encryption at rest and in transit. Access is controlled by Firebase Security Rules that ensure you can only access your own data and lists shared with you.
Guest users' data is stored only on their device and is never uploaded to any server.
We do not share your data with third parties. The only sharing that occurs is when you explicitly choose to share a shopping list with another user via a share code.
You can delete your account at any time from Profile → Delete My Account. This permanently removes:
Guest users can clear all data by clearing the app's data or uninstalling the app.
Jackie's List is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect data from children.
We may update this policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated effective date.
