Protein Bar Nerd ("we," "our," or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit our website or use an official Protein Bar Nerd integration, including our ChatGPT plugin (together, the "Services").
When you visit our website, we automatically collect certain information about your device, including:
We may collect information you voluntarily provide when you:
When you use the Protein Bar Nerd plugin in ChatGPT, we receive only the information needed to answer the tool request. This may include your search terms, nutrition filters, a selected product identifier, or the brand and flavor you ask us to inspect. We do not receive your entire ChatGPT conversation.
OpenAI may attach optional technical or contextual metadata to a request. Our plugin does not read or retain ChatGPT subject or session identifiers, organization identifiers, locale, user-agent information, time zone, or coarse location for analytics. The plugin does not request your name, email address, payment information, health records, or precise location.
We use the information we collect to:
We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to track activity on our website and store certain information. Types of cookies we use include:
You can instruct your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, if you do not accept cookies, you may not be able to use some portions of our website.
We use third-party services that may collect information used to identify you:
We implement reasonable security measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
Plugin tool inputs are processed to answer the request and are not intentionally stored by the plugin server. To enforce rate limits, the server temporarily holds a client network address in memory for no more than 60 seconds; it is not written to our database or analytics. Standard security and hosting logs may be retained for up to 30 days. Aggregate PostHog operational events contain no tool arguments or user/session identifiers and may be retained for service trend analysis. Information you submit through contact or subscription forms is retained until the request is resolved or you unsubscribe, and ordinarily no longer than 24 months, unless a longer period is required or permitted by law. Public protein-bar records are retained as product data rather than as user records.
Depending on your location, you may have certain rights regarding your personal information, including:
To exercise these rights, please contact us using the information provided below.
You can stop plugin processing at any time by not using or by uninstalling the plugin. Because aggregate plugin telemetry is not tied to a user or ChatGPT session, it cannot be retrieved or deleted as an individual profile. You may contact us to request access to, correction of, or deletion of information you provided directly.
Our Services are not intended for children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can delete such information.
Your information may be transferred to and maintained on computers located outside of your state, province, country, or other governmental jurisdiction where data protection laws may differ. By using the Services, you consent to such transfers.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the "Last Updated" date. You are advised to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes.
