Privacy Policy
Last updated: February 2026
Overview
Menu Whisperer ("we," "our," or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard information when you use our website and AI-powered menu analysis tool.
Information We Collect
Menu Images and Files
When you upload a menu image, PDF, or provide a URL, the content is sent to our server for analysis. Menu images are processed in real-time by our AI and are not stored permanently on our servers. They are discarded after the analysis is complete.
Usage Analytics
We use Vercel Analytics to collect anonymized usage data, including page views and Web Vitals performance metrics. This data does not identify individual users and is used solely to improve site performance.
Cookies and Local Storage
We may use browser local storage to save your analysis history locally on your device for your convenience. This data never leaves your browser. Third-party services (such as Google AdSense) may set cookies as described in their own privacy policies.
How We Use Information
- To provide AI-powered menu analysis and dish recommendations
- To improve the accuracy and performance of our analysis tool
- To monitor site performance and fix technical issues
- To display relevant advertisements through Google AdSense
Third-Party Services
We use the following third-party services:
- Google Gemini AI — processes menu content to generate dish recommendations. Menu data sent to Google is subject to Google's privacy policy.
- Google AdSense — displays advertisements. Google may use cookies to serve ads based on your browsing history.
- Vercel Analytics — collects anonymized performance metrics.
Data Retention
Uploaded menu images and files are processed in memory and discarded immediately after analysis. We do not maintain a database of user-uploaded menus. Analysis history stored in your browser's local storage remains until you clear it.
Your Rights
Since we do not store your uploaded menus or personal data on our servers, there is no personal data to request deletion of. You can clear your local analysis history at any time through your browser settings.
