Privacy policy

Last updated November 1, 2026

This policy describes the CheapEats app build that links to this page. CheapEats is provided by Asper Technology LLC.

Your food and conversations

Favorites, food lists, plans, preferences and Munchie conversation history are stored on your device. CheapEats does not upload them to an account service. Your device’s backup settings may include app data.

Munchie uses on-device menu matching and, when available, Apple’s on-device model. CheapEats does not send your conversation text to a third-party AI service.

Menus, photos and connections

The app includes menus for offline browsing. Photos and any enabled menu downloads are delivered using Cloudflare. Requests for app content and this website expose normal connection information, such as your IP address and request metadata, to the hosting provider for content delivery, security and abuse prevention.

This version has no advertising tracking or analytics SDK. CheapEats does not request your GPS location. The state you choose is saved on your device.

Reports you choose to send

When you send a menu issue report, CheapEats receives the selected restaurant, optional menu item and displayed menu details, issue type, optional notes, app version and a random report identifier. Reports are used to review menu corrections and are stored privately using Cloudflare.

The report does not attach your favorites, plans, conversations, Apple Account, payment details or GPS location. Please do not include personal information in your notes.

Reports are scheduled for deletion by a daily cleanup after they are more than 90 days old. Hosting-provider network metadata is separate from the report record.

Your choices

Reporting is optional. Starting a new Munchie chat clears its saved conversation. Remove favorite food, restaurant favorites, lists and planned entries using their controls. Food preferences can be cleared in Food preferences.

Clearing local information does not delete a report you have already sent. Submitted reports follow the cleanup schedule above. Device backups are managed through your Apple device settings.

Apple and external services

Apple handles App Store downloads and purchases under its own policies. CheapEats uses verified purchase information to determine Club access when subscriptions are offered; it does not receive payment-card details.

When you search for restaurant locations, the search text is sent to Apple to return places. CheapEats does not save these searches or request your GPS location.

When you open a restaurant website, ordering app or Maps, that service handles your activity under its own privacy policy. CheapEats does not receive your order or payment information from those services.

Privacy questions

Contact Asper Technology LLC at hi@asper.studio for privacy or data requests. If you email us, we receive your email address and the information in your message and use them to respond. Email correspondence is separate from the in-app report cleanup described above.

Because reports do not contain an account identifier, a report sent without identifying information may be difficult to associate with a person. Do not send sensitive account or payment information.
