Tummy Buddy Privacy Policy
Effective Date: 12 June 2025
Tummy Buddy is a conversational assistant powered by OpenAI technology. It is designed to help individuals track food intake, identify symptom patterns, and reflect on dietary health in relation to gluten intolerance, IBS, and other sensitivities. This policy explains how your data is handled when you use Tummy Buddy.
This Privacy Policy applies to interactions with Tummy Buddy via the OpenAI platform or any embedded version on third-party websites. It describes how we handle data entered by users during conversations.
Tummy Buddy does not collect, store, or share any personal data. User inputs are processed in real time and are not stored by the developers of Tummy Buddy. Conversations are handled through OpenAI’s infrastructure, and data retention policies are governed by OpenAI’s own terms of service and privacy policy.
Tummy Buddy does not:
Maintain user databases
Track user identity or IP addresses
Sell, share, or retain user-entered content
Store conversation history locally or remotely
Tummy Buddy relies on OpenAI’s GPT technology. When users interact with Tummy Buddy, their inputs are processed by OpenAI in accordance with OpenAI’s Privacy Policy and Terms of Use. Developers of Tummy Buddy do not have access to full logs, identifiable information, or stored transcripts unless provided voluntarily through another channel.
Tummy Buddy itself does not use cookies or tracking technologies. If hosted on a third-party platform (e.g. a personal website or app), that platform’s cookie and privacy settings may apply. Users are encouraged to review the privacy settings of the site where Tummy Buddy is embedded.
Tummy Buddy is not a diagnostic tool and does not provide medical advice. It offers suggestions based on user input and publicly available dietary and medical research. For diagnosis, treatment, or health emergencies, users must consult a qualified medical professional.
No personally identifiable data is collected, stored, or transmitted. Users are encouraged not to enter personal identifiers, medical record numbers, or sensitive health details beyond general symptoms and food logs. Tummy Buddy is designed for reflective, educational purposes only.
Because Tummy Buddy does not store personal data, there is no retrieval or deletion process applicable. If you believe that your data has been shared outside of Tummy Buddy through a hosting platform or browser plugin, please refer to that platform’s privacy controls.
