Welcome to Little Lentil. We respect your family's privacy because we are parents too. This policy describes how we collect, use, and handle your information when you use our website and services ("Services").
Account Information: When you sign up, we collect your email address and name.
Child Profile Data: To generate meal plans, we collect non-identifiable data about your child, such as age (in months), dietary preferences, allergies, and nutritional goals. We do not require your child's legal name.
Payment Information: We do not store your credit card details. All transactions are processed securely by Stripe.
Usage Data: We use privacy-focused analytics (PostHog) to understand how users interact with our app (e.g., "Plan Generated", "Shopping List Opened") to improve the experience.
We use your data solely to:
Generate personalized meal plans and shopping lists via our AI provider.
Process your subscription payments.
Send you important account updates or your generated plans via email.
We do not sell your data to advertisers.
We trust the following third-party providers to help us operate Little Lentil:
OpenAI: Used to generate the meal plan content. Data sent to OpenAI is not used to train their models.
Stripe: Used for secure payment processing.
PostHog: Used for anonymous usage analytics.
Resend: Used to deliver emails to you.
Railway & Neon: Used for secure cloud hosting and database storage.
We retain your data only as long as your account is active. You may request the deletion of your account and all associated data at any time by emailing us at [email protected].
Little Lentil is intended for use by parents and guardians, not by children directly. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. The profile data provided (age/allergies) is managed solely by the parent.
