Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 25, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains what information Molokheya collects, why, and how it's handled. Molokheya is built on Firebase; we don't use advertising networks or third-party analytics, and we never sell your data.

1. Information We Collect

Account information: your email address and, if you sign in with Google, the name and email associated with that Google account. We use Firebase Authentication to manage sign-in — we never see or store your password directly. Nutrition profile data (only if you create one, a Molokheya+ feature): age, sex, height, weight, activity level, and goal; allergies and intolerances; dietary and religious preferences; and any ingredients you mark as excluded or disliked. This is health-adjacent information you choose to provide so the app can calculate targets and build a plan around it — we treat it as sensitive and it is never shared or sold. Progress data (Molokheya+): weight entries you log over time. Plan and shopping data: your weekly meal plan, shopping list, and favorited recipes. Subscription status: whether your account is on the free plan or Molokheya+, and its renewal date — supplied to us by Google Play or the App Store. We never receive or store your payment card details; those stay with Google or Apple entirely. What we don't collect: we don't track your precise location, access your contacts or camera, or use any advertising or analytics SDK to track your behavior in the app or across other apps and websites.

2. How We Use Your Information

To provide the features you use: sign you in, save and sync your plan and shopping list across your devices, calculate your nutrition targets, generate and adapt your weekly plan, track your progress, and manage your Molokheya+ subscription status. We also use your email address to respond if you contact us for support.

3. Where Your Data Is Stored

Your data is stored in Firebase (Google Cloud), encrypted in transit. Access is restricted by server-side security rules so that only your own signed-in account can read or write your data — no other user, and no public listing, can see it. Firebase's infrastructure may process or store data in Google Cloud regions outside Egypt; by using the app, you consent to this transfer.

4. Who We Share Data With

We do not sell your data, and we do not share it with advertisers. The only parties involved are the ones needed to run the app itself: Firebase/Google Cloud (our backend infrastructure and, if used, Google Sign-In), and Google Play or the Apple App Store (who process your Molokheya+ payment and tell us only your subscription status, never your payment details). We may also disclose information if legally required to do so.

5. Your Rights

You can access, correct, or export your profile, progress, and plan data directly in the app at any time. To request deletion of your account and all associated data, email us at support@molokheya-app.com from the address on your account — we will delete it within a reasonable time, except where we must retain limited records to comply with the law. If you are in the European Economic Area or UK, you have the rights afforded under GDPR; if you are in Egypt, you have the rights afforded under the Personal Data Protection Law (Law No. 151 of 2020) — both include the right to access, correct, and delete your data as described above.

6. Data Retention

We keep your data for as long as your account is active. If you request deletion, we remove it within a reasonable time, other than the limited records we're required to keep for legal or accounting purposes.

7. Children's Privacy

Molokheya is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, contact us and we will delete it.

8. Health Information Note

Nutrition profile and progress data you enter is used only to power the app's planning and tracking features described above — it is not reviewed by a medical professional, not used for any medical purpose, and not shared with insurers or employers. See our Terms of Service for the full nutrition/health disclaimer.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy from time to time; if we make material changes, we'll update the "Last updated" date above.
