Please avoid submitting unnecessary personal or sensitive information when using the AI Nutrition feature. In particular, do not submit passwords, government identification numbers, financial information, medical records, or other information that is not necessary for a general nutrition question.

Nutrition questions may be processed by technology providers used to operate the AI feature when the feature is enabled. We will take reasonable steps to use appropriate providers and safeguards.

3. Health Information
