Glizzy-1B privacy policy

Effective July 18, 2026 · It's a hot dog detector. We still wrote you a real privacy policy, because that's the law and also because you deserve to know where your glizzy pics go.

The 90-second version: Glizzy-1B decides if a photo is a hot dog, entirely on your phone. It collects nothing unless you opt in to feedback. If you do opt in, and only for the photos you personally tap 👍/👎 on, it sends that photo and some boring device info to us so we can figure out why the model thinks a golden retriever is a bratwurst. No precise location (we do note your rough state or country, from your IP — then we toss the IP). No name. No account. No ads. No selling your data. No creepy stuff. You can turn it off or ask us to delete everything, anytime.

01What we collect (only if you say yes)

By default, Glizzy-1B is a hermit. Classification happens 100% on your device and nothing leaves it. The very first time you open the app, we ask — plainly — whether you want to help improve it. If you tap "Allow feedback," then and only then, for each verdict you rate with 🌭 Yes / 🚫 No, we send:

The photo you checked — the actual image. Yes, we see your questionable lunch.
The verdict + your answer — what the model said (hot dog / not), its confidence, its top guesses, and your ground-truth 🌭/🚫. This is the whole point: labeled data to fix the model.
Boring device facts — device model (e.g. iPhone16,2), iOS version, app version, and your language/region. For debugging, not dossier-building.
Your rough area — when you submit, we work out your state (US) or country from your IP address, keep that, and discard the IP. Never precise location, never GPS. We can tell Ohio from Oregon, not your street.
A random ID — an anonymous Feedback ID we generate on install so we can tell "50 submissions from one tester" apart from "50 testers." It is not linked to you, your name, your Apple ID, or your phone's real identifiers. See it in Settings → Feedback ID.

02What we do NOT collect (the flex)

Your precise location. No GPS, no location permission, no map pin, and iOS strips location out of your photos before we'd ever see it. We derive an approximate state/country from your IP (see above) and immediately throw the IP away — we know roughly which state, never which couch.
Your name, email, phone number, or account. There is no account. There is no login. There is a hot dog.
Contacts, calendar, health, microphone, or anything else. Not requested, not touched.
Advertising / tracking identifiers. No ad SDKs, no analytics trackers, no "anonymous partners." We don't track you across apps or websites, because we are not doing that.
Your money. No purchases, no subscriptions, no "Glizzy Pro."

03Where your glizzy pics actually go

When you submit feedback, the photo and info travel to a hosted intake service (Supabase) that acts purely as a mailbox. Every few minutes, a private server we control pulls everything down and deletes it from the mailbox, so it doesn't pile up in the cloud. From there it lives on that private server, where the developer looks at misclassifications to improve the model. That's the entire journey. It is not sold, rented, traded, or handed to advertisers — there is no one to sell hot dog photos to, and we wouldn't anyway.

04Who else is involved

Supabase, Inc. — the temporary intake mailbox described above, acting as our data processor. Their privacy terms apply while data is briefly in transit.
An IP-geolocation lookup — to turn your IP into an approximate state/country, we send just the IP to a geolocation service (currently ipwho.is), keep the region result, and discard the IP. No image or personal info is sent to them.
Apple — you got the app from the App Store / TestFlight, so Apple does Apple things (downloads, crash reports if you allow them). That's between you and Apple.

That's the whole guest list. No third-party ad networks, no data brokers, no analytics middlemen.

05How long we keep it

Feedback you submit is kept on the developer's private server for as long as it's useful for improving the model. Because every submission is tagged with your anonymous Feedback ID and nothing else, we can find and delete your data if you ask — just send us that ID (from Settings → Feedback ID). Turn feedback off and we stop collecting new data immediately.

06Your choices

Opt out anytime. Settings → Send anonymous feedback → off. New submissions stop the instant you flip it.
Never opt in at all. Tap "Not now" on first launch and the app collects literally nothing, forever, while working exactly the same.
Delete what you sent. Send us your Feedback ID (Settings → Feedback ID) through the in-app feedback and we'll wipe its submissions.

07Children

Glizzy-1B isn't directed at children under 13 and we don't knowingly collect anything from them. If you're a kid: hot dogs are a sandwich. Fight your parents about it, not us.

08Security

Feedback moves over encrypted connections (HTTPS) and the intake is access-controlled. We keep the private archive on a server we control. We're realistic — this is hot dog photos, not medical records — but we still don't want them leaking, and we treat them accordingly. No method of transmission or storage is 100% bulletproof, and we won't pretend otherwise.

09Changes to this policy

If we change what we collect, we'll update this page and bump the "Effective" date up top. If the changes are a big deal, we'll make sure you actually notice, rather than burying it in paragraph 47.

10Who to yell at

Questions, deletion requests, or strong opinions about hot-dog-as-sandwich theory: reach us through the in-app feedback in Glizzy-1B. No email, no account, no phone tree — just a message box.
