Privacy Policy

Last updated: 20 October 2026

Reorder is a personal restaurant and dish review app created by Tristan Thomas. This policy explains what information the app processes and how it is used.

Information you provide in the app

Reorder stores the restaurants you save, restaurant details, ratings, review notes, dish notes, dates, profile names, generated summaries, and any voice review recordings or transcripts you choose to create.

Location

If you grant permission, Reorder uses your location to help find nearby restaurants and to show useful distance context. Location access is optional.

Voice recording and transcription

If you choose to record a review, Reorder uses microphone access to capture the recording and sends the audio through its Cloudflare backend to OpenAI for transcription. Successfully processed audio is removed from the app; recordings awaiting processing or a retry may remain on your device. Voice features are used only when you start a recording.

Online AI

Reorder uses OpenAI through its Cloudflare backend to structure review text, extract dish notes, generate restaurant summaries, and answer questions from your saved reviews. These features send the relevant review text and restaurant context for processing. Advisor questions may also include relevant saved review history and profile names.

How your data is used

Reorder uses your data to:

• Show your saved restaurants and reviews.
• Calculate ratings, recent orders, dish summaries, and restaurant summaries.
• Search your saved restaurants, dishes, profiles, and notes.
• Help answer questions from your own review history when supported.
• Export your saved reviews as CSV when you choose to export them.
• Sync your data across your own devices when iCloud is available.

Storage and syncing

Your review data is stored locally on your device. If iCloud is available and enabled for Reorder, your data may also be stored in your private iCloud account so it can sync across your own devices.

If iCloud is not available, Reorder falls back to local on-device storage.

Accounts, analytics, and advertising

Reorder does not require you to create an account. Reorder does not include third-party analytics, advertising, or tracking SDKs.

Data sharing

Reorder does not sell your personal data. Data may be processed by Apple platform services, such as iCloud and MapKit, and by Cloudflare and OpenAI to provide the online transcription and AI features you choose to use. The backend uses Apple App Attest and a pseudonymous installation identifier to authenticate requests and enforce rate limits. Request logs include route, status, duration, installation identifier, and upstream request identifier rather than review text or recordings.

Deleting your data

You can delete saved restaurants and reviews inside Reorder. You can remove local app data by deleting Reorder from your device. iCloud-synced data can be managed through your Apple ID and iCloud storage settings.
