The fine print, in plain words

Privacy Policy

— your table’s memory belongs to your table. That’s the whole policy; the rest is detail.

Effective date: July 6, 2026 · Updated July 17, 2026 — the app was renamed from Mira to Aly; the policy is unchanged.

This policy explains what Aly (“Aly”, “we”, “us”) collects, why, who can see it, and how to make us forget it. It applies to the Aly iOS app and this website. If anything here is unclear, email [email protected] and a human will answer.

1. What we collect

Account information

Aly uses email-based authentication. When you create an account we store your email address, your display name, and basic account records (such as when the account was created and your subscription status).

Household data — the things you tell Aly

  • Food preferences, dislikes, allergies, and dietary restrictions;
  • profiles you create for household members, including children and pets;
  • meals you logged, swipes, matches, ratings, and notes;
  • messages you send to Aly in chat;
  • optional health check-ins, if you choose to use them.

Usage and diagnostics

We collect analytics events (for example: which screens are used, whether a swipe session ended in a match) and crash reports. These are used to improve the product. We do not sell this data, and we do not run advertising.

2. The shared household memory — read this one

Aly is built around a memory shared between partners. When you pair with a partner, information you add to the household — preferences, family member profiles, meal history, and facts you tell Aly in chat that concern the household — becomes visible to your partner, and information they add becomes visible to you. This is the product working as designed, not a leak; but it means you should not tell Aly anything about the household that you would not want your partner to see. Messages framed as private notes to Aly are still stored within your household’s account.

3. AI processing (Google Gemini)

Aly’s intelligence runs server-side. To generate answers, your chat messages and relevant household context (such as food preferences, allergies, and recent meals) are sent to our servers and processed with Google’s Gemini API. This means the content you share with Aly is processed by Google as our service provider, under our API agreement with them. We do not use your data to train our own models. Please don’t include information in chat that you wouldn’t want processed this way.

4. Where your data lives

Your data is stored in our cloud database (currently hosted on Supabase infrastructure) and is encrypted in transit. Access is limited to your household through authentication, and to us only for operating and debugging the service.

5. Retention and deletion

We keep your data for as long as your account exists. You can delete individual memories, meal entries, and household members at any time inside the app — deletion is honored, not soft-hidden in the product.

You can delete your entire account from inside the app (Us → Settings → Delete account). Account deletion removes your personal data from our production systems within 30 days; residual copies in encrypted backups expire on their own schedule shortly after. If you were paired, facts you contributed to the shared household memory are removed as part of deletion.

6. Your rights

You can access and correct your data directly in the app. For a copy of your data, or for any request you can’t complete in the app, email [email protected]. Depending on where you live (for example the EU/EEA, UK, or California) you may have specific legal rights to access, portability, correction, and erasure; we honor these requests regardless of geography.

7. Children

Aly accounts are for adults and teens 13 and up. Parents and guardians may add profiles about their children (like “Jake — allergic to peanuts”); by doing so you confirm you’re authorized to share that information. Children do not have their own accounts.

8. Not medical advice

Aly remembers allergies and health notes to make better dinner suggestions. It is not a medical device and its suggestions are not medical advice. Always verify ingredients yourself where allergies are involved.

9. Changes

If this policy changes in a way that matters, we’ll tell you in the app before the change takes effect — not bury it in a changelog.
