Privacy Choices

Astyq keeps the important controls in the app, close to the data they affect.

Last updated August 8, 2026

Turn AI processing on or off

Open Astyq → Settings → AI processing. Turning it off blocks new meal-analysis and voice transcription requests. Your local diary and quick entry continue to work. Turning it off cannot recall a request already sent to Astyq’s backend and OpenAI.

Edit or delete diary entries

Use the Diary screen to edit or delete a saved meal. AI cannot edit or delete an existing entry. Clearing a chat or starting a new chat does not delete confirmed meals.

Export your diary

Astyq can prepare a Markdown export and open Apple’s share sheet. You choose the destination. Once shared, the copy is controlled by the destination app or person.

Delete your guest account and local data

1. Open Astyq and go to Settings.
2. Tap Delete Account and Data.
3. Review what will be removed.
4. Confirm the destructive action.

This removes:

• the Firebase anonymous guest account used by this Astyq installation;
• the local diary and frequent meals;
• the local profile, goals, language/country choices, appearance, AI permission, and onboarding state;
• any pending AI retry and Astyq-owned temporary voice/export files.

Pseudonymous request-control records cannot be linked back through an Astyq user database and expire automatically in up to four days, including Firestore’s asynchronous deletion window. Standard operational logs expire after 30 days; provider-required administrator/audit records may be retained up to 400 days. OpenAI provider data follows the schedule described in the Privacy Policy.

Request help or exercise a legal right

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, or object to certain processing, and to appeal a decision. Email us with “Privacy Request” in the subject. We may need to verify the request while collecting as little additional information as practical.

The local diary is not available to Astyq’s server, so we cannot email it back or erase it remotely. In-app deletion or removing the app from your own device controls that local copy. Device backups are managed through Apple.
