These providers process data only as needed to deliver the relevant feature, under their own
security and privacy commitments.
Photos you submit in the chat or your My Garden journal, and voice recordings you make when
dictating or talking with Laura, are sent to the third-party services above for processing.
Photos are kept on your device with your Recent conversations and My Garden so you can
revisit past results. You can delete individual conversations, plants, and journal entries
at any time (see Section 7).
Please avoid submitting photos that include other people, sensitive personal information, or
anything unrelated to plants and gardening.
In the current version, your Recent conversations and My Garden live on your device and
remain until you delete them or the App. Once accounts are available, we will retain account
information and synced data for as long as your account is active, so the App can continue
to be useful to you. If you delete your account, we delete this data within a reasonable
period, except where we're required to retain limited records for legal, security, or
fraud-prevention purposes.
The App is not directed at children, and you must be at least 16 years old to create an
account. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you
believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we'll
remove it.

Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights under laws like the California
Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) or the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), including the
right to access, correct, or delete your data, or to object to certain processing. Contact us
to exercise these rights.
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your information.
However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we can't guarantee
absolute security.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we'll
notify you in the App or by other reasonable means.
