Bagging Privacy Policy

Effective date: May 18, 2026

Bagging is a grocery price tracking app and website operated by 1576136 B.C. Ltd., a British Columbia company. This policy explains what personal information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have.

Bagging is currently in pre-launch. Some sections below describe the iOS app practices that will apply when Bagging is available through TestFlight or the App Store. We will update this policy if our data practices change.

Quick version

• We collect the information needed to run Bagging: waitlist emails, account information, user-submitted grocery prices, receipts or shelf-tag photos you choose to submit, approximate location when you request local price comparisons, and your personal price history.
• We use this information to provide grocery price tracking, maintain your account, improve data quality, prevent abuse, and send launch or service updates.
• We do not sell personal information.
• We do not use third-party advertising trackers.
• We do not track your location in the background.
• Receipt and shelf-tag photos are processed on device where possible and are not stored by default unless needed for verification, support, abuse prevention, or a feature you choose to use.
• You can contact us at privacy@bagging.app to access, correct, or delete your personal information.

Who is responsible for your information

Bagging is operated by:

For privacy questions, access requests, correction requests, deletion requests, or complaints, email privacy@bagging.app.

Information we collect

Website and waitlist

When you join the waitlist, we collect:

• Your email address
• Submission time
• Basic technical information such as user agent
• Approximate region or country provided by our hosting provider
• Anti-abuse signals needed to operate the form

We use this to run the waitlist, send launch updates, prevent spam or abuse, and understand basic regional demand.

Account information

When the iOS app is available, Bagging may use Sign in with Apple. Depending on your Apple settings, we may receive:

• A stable Apple account identifier
• Your email address, including a private relay email if you choose to hide your email
• Your name, if Apple provides it and you choose to share it

We use this to create and maintain your Bagging account.

Receipt, shelf-tag, and grocery price information

Bagging is built on grocery price data submitted by shoppers. When you use the app, we may collect:

• Product names
• Product sizes or quantities
• Prices
• Store names or banners
• Store location or approximate area
• Receipt photos or shelf-tag photos you choose to submit
• Date and time of a price or receipt
• Corrections or confirmations you submit

We use this to show price history, unit prices, nearby prices, and data quality signals.

Receipt and shelf-tag photos may contain information we do not need, such as loyalty numbers, payment card fragments, cashier identifiers, or other purchase details. Bagging will try to minimize this information where possible. You should avoid submitting anything you do not want processed by Bagging.

Location information

Bagging may ask for location access when you request nearby price comparisons. We use location to:

• Show prices near you
• Estimate distance to stores
• Improve regional price relevance

Bagging does not use background location tracking. If you do not grant location access, you may still be able to use Bagging with manual store or area selection, depending on the available app features.

Personal price history

Bagging may keep a personal history of prices you scanned, receipts you submitted, and products you tracked. We use this to show your own price history and help you compare current prices against your past prices.

Support and communications

If you contact us, we collect the information you provide, such as your email address, message, and any information needed to respond.

How we use information

We use personal information to:

• Provide and maintain Bagging
• Create and manage accounts
• Process receipts, shelf tags, and grocery price submissions
• Show price history, unit prices, and nearby price comparisons
• Build and maintain crowd-contributed grocery price data
• Detect, prevent, and investigate spam, fraud, abuse, or inaccurate submissions
• Send waitlist, launch, service, security, and support messages
• Improve product quality and reliability
• Comply with legal obligations

We do not use personal information for third-party advertising.

Aggregated and de-identified data

Bagging may create aggregated or de-identified grocery price data, such as average prices by product, store, area, or time period. We may use or share aggregated or de-identified data for product features, public price insights, research, press, or marketing, as long as it does not reasonably identify an individual user.

When we share information

We may share information with:

• Service providers that help us host, store, secure, analyze, or operate Bagging
• Apple, if you use Apple services such as Sign in with Apple, TestFlight, or App Store distribution
• Cloudflare, which hosts the Bagging website, waitlist form, and related infrastructure
• Professional advisors, such as lawyers or accountants, if needed
• Authorities or other parties when required by law, legal process, security, or abuse prevention

We require service providers to handle personal information only for the purposes of providing services to Bagging.

We do not sell personal information.

Storage and retention

We keep personal information only as long as reasonably needed for the purposes described in this policy, unless a longer period is required or permitted by law.

Typical retention periods:

• Waitlist emails: until you unsubscribe, ask us to delete them, or the waitlist is no longer needed
• Account information: while your account is active and for a reasonable period after deletion for security, legal, or backup purposes
• Personal price history: while your account is active, unless you delete it or request deletion
• Receipt and shelf-tag photos: not stored by default unless needed for verification, support, abuse prevention, or a feature you choose to use
• Aggregated or de-identified price data: may be retained indefinitely if it no longer reasonably identifies you

Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards to protect personal information. No system is perfectly secure, but we aim to collect the minimum information needed and limit access to people and providers who need it to operate Bagging.

International processing

Bagging is based in British Columbia, Canada. Our service providers may process or store information in Canada, the United States, or other countries. Privacy laws in those countries may differ from the laws where you live, and information may be accessible to courts, law enforcement, or government authorities where it is processed.

Your choices and rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:

• Ask what personal information we hold about you
• Request a copy of your personal information
• Correct inaccurate information
• Delete your personal information
• Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent
• Object to or restrict certain processing
• Make a privacy complaint

To make a request, email privacy@bagging.app. We may need to verify your identity before responding.

Email choices

You can unsubscribe from waitlist or marketing emails using the unsubscribe link in the email, if available, or by contacting privacy@bagging.app. We may still send service, security, or account-related messages.

Children

Bagging is not intended for children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child under 13 has provided personal information to Bagging, contact privacy@bagging.app.

App Store privacy information

When Bagging is submitted to the App Store, we will provide App Store privacy details that reflect the data collected by the app and any third-party services used in the app. If the app's practices differ from this policy, we will update this policy and the App Store information.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy as Bagging develops. If we make material changes, we will update the effective date and, where appropriate, provide additional notice.
