Legal information
Privacy Policy
Last updated:
Kewi Apps (“we”, “us” or “our”) operates the Mixos AI application (“the App”).
We are committed to protecting and respecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose and safeguard your information when you use our App.
This policy is designed to address obligations under the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR), the EU General Data Protection Regulation (EU GDPR), and applicable United States privacy laws, including the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA).
For the purposes of the UK GDPR, Kewi Apps is the Data Controller for the personal data described in this Privacy Policy.
1. Information we collect
We collect information in three ways: information you provide directly, information collected automatically, and information collected through third-party services.
1.1 Information you provide to us
Account information
When you register for or log in to the App, we may collect your display name and user ID.
User preferences
We collect and store your favourite ingredients to provide personalised recommendations within the App.
1.2 Information collected automatically
When you access and use the App, our servers and third-party tools may automatically collect technical and usage information, including:
- Device data: mobile device ID, device model, manufacturer, operating system version, IP address and Android Advertising ID (AAID).
- Usage data: information about how you interact with the App, including pages viewed, features accessed, time spent in the App and crash logs.
2. How we use your information
We use the information we collect for the purposes described below. Where UK or EU data protection law applies, we identify the relevant legal basis for processing.
| Purpose | Data used | Legal basis under UK/EU GDPR |
|---|---|---|
| Authentication and access | User ID and display name | Performance of a contract |
| Core App functionality | Favourite ingredients | Performance of a contract |
| Personalisation | Favourite ingredients and usage data | Legitimate interests, or consent where applicable |
| App optimisation | Device data and usage data | Legitimate interests, or consent where applicable |
3. Third-party data processors: Google Firebase
We use Google Firebase, a service provided by Google LLC, to host, power and analyse aspects of the App. Firebase processes data on our behalf.
Depending on the features enabled in the App, we use:
Firebase Authentication
Firebase Authentication helps us securely manage user sign-ins. Google may process information such as your email address and display name for this purpose.
Google Analytics for Firebase
Google Analytics for Firebase helps us measure App usage, understand user interactions and improve performance. It may use identifiers such as Firebase Installation IDs and device advertising IDs.
Google’s use of information is governed by the Google Privacy Policy .
Further information about Firebase’s privacy and security practices is available in How Firebase safeguards data .
4. Data transfers outside the UK and EEA
Because we use Google Firebase, information collected through the App may be transferred to, stored in and processed in countries outside the United Kingdom and the European Economic Area, including the United States.
Where we transfer personal data outside the UK or EEA, we take steps to ensure that an appropriate level of protection is provided. These safeguards may include approved Standard Contractual Clauses and other lawful transfer mechanisms recognised under applicable data protection law.
5. Data retention
We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected, including to satisfy legal, accounting or reporting requirements.
Account data and favourite ingredients
Account data and favourite ingredients are retained while your account is active. If you delete your account, this data will be deleted within 30 days, subject to any legal obligations requiring longer retention.
Analytics data
Google Analytics data is retained in accordance with the applicable Google Analytics retention settings, typically for up to 14 months.
6. Your privacy rights
Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have rights regarding your personal information.

- Erasure: request that your personal data is deleted in certain circumstances.
- Restriction or objection: request that processing is restricted or object to certain processing activities.
- Withdrawal of consent: where processing relies on consent, withdraw that consent at any time.
