Privacy Policy
Last updated: 16 June 2026
Pury is built to be private by design. It runs on your device, has no user account, and includes no analytics, advertising or tracking SDKs. We do not collect, sell or share your personal data.
What stays on your device
- Label scans, photos and OCR text are processed on your iPhone and are not uploaded to us.
- Your scan history, your profile (allergens, diets, modes) and your saved lists are stored locally on your device.
- Purity verdicts and on-device explanations are computed locally using Apple's frameworks (Vision, Apple Intelligence).
Optional features that use a network
These only run when you actively use them:
- Barcode lookup. If you scan a barcode, the barcode number is sent to the open Open Food Facts database to retrieve product information. No personal data is attached.
- Claude AI explanations (bring your own key). If you turn this on and add your own Anthropic API key, the facts of the scanned label are sent to Anthropic to generate a written explanation, under your own key. Your key is stored only in your device Keychain.
- Apple Health. If you grant access, Pury reads selected Health metrics to show correlations. This data stays on your device and is never uploaded.
Subscriptions
Purchases and subscriptions are handled by Apple. We never see your payment details. Apple may share aggregate, non-identifying purchase information with us as the developer.
Children
Pury is not directed at children and does not knowingly collect data from anyone. The optional "Child mode" only changes how strictly ingredients are flagged — it collects nothing.
Your rights
Because your data lives on your device, you are in control: deleting the app removes your scans, profile and lists. You can disable any optional network feature at any time in the app's settings.
