Account Architecture (Google Sign-In + Cloud Sync)

IngrediScan AI uses your Google Account to authenticate and sync your food scan history, allergen settings, and dietary preferences across devices via our secure Laravel cloud API. Your camera feeds and photos are processed in memory and never stored.

What Data Exists, and Where

Cloud Server Data (Laravel Backend)

Google display name, verified email, profile avatar URL
Unique Google account identifier (Google UID)
Saved dietary preferences (e.g. Vegan, Gluten-Free, Diabetes)
Historical food scans (product name, brand, safety scores, flagged additives)

Local Android Storage

Cached scan history in local SQLite Room database
Encrypted authentication session tokens (Sanctum tokens)
App preferences and on-device UI settings
Zero camera photos stored (discarded immediately post-OCR)

How to Delete Your Account & Data

1Option 1: Instant In-App Self-Service Deletion (Recommended)

Instant & Permanent

You can delete your account and all associated cloud records in real time directly inside the IngrediScan AI Android app:

Open the IngrediScan AI app on your Android device.
Tap the Settings / Profile icon in the top-right corner.
Scroll down to the Account section and tap "Delete Account & Data".
Confirm your request in the confirmation dialog.

✓ Result: Your Google account link, profile settings, and all synced scan history are permanently purged from our backend database immediately.

2Option 2: Clear Local Android App Storage & Uninstall

Local Phone Data

If you wish to remove local cached scans, cookies, and tokens without deleting your cloud profile:

Clear Storage

Go to Android Settings → Apps → IngrediScan AI → Storage → Clear Storage. This wipes local cache but keeps the app installed.

Uninstall App

Long-press the app icon and select Uninstall. Android immediately deletes the app binary and its private sandbox database.

3Option 3: Web Deletion Request (If App Is Already Uninstalled)

Web Self-Service

If you no longer have the app installed on your phone, you can request full account and data deletion using the secure form below:

Once deleted, food scan records and personalized health parameters cannot be recovered.
