- Usage Data: We may collect technical logs (server interactions) to ensure app stability and debug errors via AWS services.
2. Android App Permissions
To provide specific features, our Android App may request the following permission:
- Camera (Optional): We request camera access solely to allow restaurant owners to scan physical menu items or barcodes to add them to their digital catalog. This permission is optional, and we do not access your photo gallery or microphone.
