PackPlate Privacy Policy
Effective November 2, 2026
PackPlate shows dining hall menus and hours for NC State students. It is built to work without knowing who you are.
What PackPlate does not collect
- No accounts, names, email addresses or phone numbers.
- No location, contacts, photos or other personal data from your phone.
- No analytics, advertising or tracking tools, and no data is sold or shared with anyone.
What stays on your phone
Your favorite foods, diet filters, chosen dining hall and reminder setting are saved only on your device. They are never sent to us. Deleting the app deletes them.
Reminders
If you turn on reminders, PackPlate schedules them on your phone using iOS notifications. No notification data is sent to a server. You can turn reminders off in the app's Settings tab or in your iPhone's Settings.
How the menus are loaded
The app downloads a menu file from a page hosted on GitHub Pages. Like any website, GitHub may briefly record standard technical information such as your IP address when the file is downloaded. See GitHub's privacy statement. PackPlate itself does not receive or store that information.
Children
PackPlate is meant for college students and does not knowingly collect information from anyone.
Changes
If this policy changes, the new version will be posted on this page with a new effective date.
