E. At Your Direction or With Your Consent

We may disclose personal information when you direct or authorize us to do so, request a feature or integration requiring disclosure, or otherwise consent to the disclosure.

5. Sale, Sharing and Targeted Advertising

MenuFit does not sell personal information in exchange for money.

Certain privacy laws define “sale,” “sharing” or “targeted advertising” more broadly and may treat certain disclosures involving advertising, analytics, attribution or similar technologies as sales, sharing or targeted advertising even when no money is exchanged.

To the extent MenuFit engages in activities that constitute a sale or sharing of personal information or targeted advertising under applicable law, we will provide any notices and choices required by applicable law.

MenuFit does not knowingly sell or share personal information of children in violation of applicable law.

6. Sensitive Personal Information

Information you provide concerning your health or wellness, body metrics, fitness or weight-management goals, food allergies, dietary restrictions or precise location may constitute sensitive personal information under applicable law.

• take into account dietary restrictions, allergies and preferences;
• provide location-based functionality;
• maintain and secure the Services; and

We do not intend to use sensitive personal information for purposes materially unrelated to providing or improving the Services without providing any notice or obtaining any consent required by applicable law.

Where required by applicable law, we will provide choices concerning certain tracking technologies.

8. Aggregated and De-Identified Information

We may use and disclose aggregated or de-identified information for lawful purposes, including analytics, research, product development, statistical analysis, improving MenuFit's technology and recommendation systems, and other business purposes.

Where required by applicable law, we will maintain information in de-identified form and will not attempt to re-identify it except as permitted by law.

• comply with applicable legal and regulatory obligations;
• prevent fraud and abuse;
• resolve disputes;
• enforce agreements; and

Retention periods may vary based on the nature and sensitivity of the information, why it was collected, operational requirements and applicable legal requirements.

When personal information is no longer reasonably necessary for the purposes for which we retain it, we may delete, de-identify or aggregate it, subject to applicable law and reasonable backup, archival and technical requirements.

10. Data Security

MenuFit uses administrative, technical and organizational safeguards designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, acquisition, loss, misuse, alteration or disclosure.

However, no network, information system, electronic transmission or method of storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure. Accordingly, we cannot guarantee the absolute security of personal information.

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and should notify us promptly if you believe your account or credentials have been compromised.
