Privacy Policy
K-OREA(케이오리아)는 익명 로그인으로 시작하며, 원하는 경우에만 구글·애플 계정을 연결합니다. 다음 정보를 목적에 한해 처리합니다:
- 메뉴판 사진 — AI(Anthropic Claude)로 판독 후 저장하지 않음
- 증상·건강 프로필 — 동의 시에만 전송, 케어 카드 생성 후 폐기
- 위치 정보 — 지도·주변 검색·택시 요금 추정에만 사용, 서버에 저장·판매하지 않음
- 모먼트(사진·한줄평) — 공개 게시, 게시 전 AI 검열
- 구매 영수증 — 애플이 결제를 처리, 저희는 카드 정보를 보지 않음
데이터를 판매하거나 광고에 사용하지 않으며, 앱 내에서 계정을 삭제할 수 있습니다. 문의: 4ddesigner@naver.com
K-OREA ("the app", "we") is the operator of this app. This policy explains, in plain terms, what the app collects, why, who it is shared with, and how you can delete it. We do not sell your personal information, and we do not use it for advertising.
1. Signing in
The app signs you in anonymously and automatically the first time you open it, using Firebase Authentication — no password, no personal information required. You may optionally link a Google or Apple account (Sign in with Apple) to create a public @username, which is required only if you want to post a Traveler Moment or keep your K Pass across devices. If you sign in this way, we receive your name, email address, and account identifier from Google or Apple.
2. Menu photos (K-Menu)
When you scan a restaurant menu, the photo is sent to our server and passed to Anthropic's Claude API, which reads the dishes and returns the result as text. The photo is used only to decode that one menu — it is not written to a database, a file, or a log, and is discarded immediately after processing. We keep a simple per-device scan count to apply daily usage limits, not the photo itself.
3. Symptoms and health profile (K-Care)
Any allergy, medication, or condition information you enter is stored only on your device. It is sent to our server only when you actively choose to attach it to a pharmacist card, along with any symptom text you type. The server forwards that information to Anthropic's Claude API to generate the card, and discards it afterward — only a per-device daily counter persists. K-Care information is general and is not medical advice. In a real emergency in Korea, call 119.
4. Location (K-Map, K-Taxi, K-Care)
If you allow location access, your position is used, while the app is in use, to show nearby spots on the map, estimate taxi fares, and find nearby pharmacies, hospitals, and emergency rooms. Location is used to serve that request and is not stored long-term on our servers, not attached to your account or to a Traveler Moment, and never sold. We never access your location in the background.
5. Traveler Moments
If you choose to post a Moment, the photo and short caption you submit are reviewed by an automated AI moderation step (Anthropic Claude) before publishing, then stored and displayed publicly under your @username. Removing a Moment removes it for everyone, not just from your own view.
6. Purchases (K Pass)
K Pass purchases are processed entirely by Apple through the App Store's in-app purchase system — we never see your card number or payment details. Our server verifies the App Store transaction to activate your pass and stores only the entitlement result (pass type, expiry) linked to your account identifier.
7. Device and usage identifiers
We use a device identifier to apply fair-use limits — for example, free daily menu scans and care cards — and to track your K Pass state. We also collect anonymous, aggregate usage statistics (such as which features are opened) that are not tied to your name or contact information.
8. Who we share data with
| Service | What it's for |
|---|---|
| Apple | Processes K Pass purchases through the App Store, and provides Sign in with Apple. |
| Google Firebase | Handles anonymous and Google sign-in, and stores account, profile, and Traveler Moment data. |
| Anthropic (Claude) | Reads menu photos, generates care cards, and moderates Moment photos/captions in real time. |
| Naver | Powers map display and location/direction lookups used for K-Map and fare estimates. |
Each of these providers handles data under its own privacy policy. We do not share your data with anyone for their own marketing, and we do not sell it.
9. Deleting your account and data
You can delete your account at any time from the app's Settings, without needing to email us. Deletion is immediate and cannot be undone. It removes:
- Your @username (released, so anyone can take it)
- Your profile
- Every Traveler Moment you posted, including its photo — removed for everyone, not just hidden from you
- Your Google or Apple sign-in link on this device
- Everything kept on your phone — saved spots, allergy rules, health card, K Pass state, and the rest of your local app data
A few things are kept, and here is why:
Anonymous per-device usage counters
Keyed to a device identifier only — no name, email, or content. Kept only as long as needed to keep daily usage limits working.
Moderation and report records
Kept for safety, as required to operate content moderation responsibly.
Purchase and receipt records
Held by Apple, managed through the App Store — not by us.

10. Children
K-OREA is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their personal information.
11. Changes to this policy
If this policy changes, we will update this page and the date above.
