Data Usage
Nutrasheets is a food development add-on for Google Sheets. Our policy is to clearly disclose the
manner in
which the Nutrasheets add-on accesses, uses, stores, or shares Google user data. Below are
explanations of
how Nutrasheets uses authorization scopes to create a food development environment that runs in
Google Sheets.
-
Create formulation sheets and add ingredients.If the user chooses, Nutrasheets can insert sheets into spreadsheets and add content and formatting to the inserted sheets to make a formulation sheet. Nutrasheets can insert ingredients into formulation sheets by reading the contents of the current active sheet and looking for appropriate text to guide where to write ingredient data. Nutrasheets can then write ingredient data into the appropriate locations in the formulation sheet.
-
Insert ingredients from your My Ingredient Database.Similar to inserting ingredients described above, Nutrasheets can read the contents of whatever sheet is active and insert
importrangestatements in the appropriate locations to insert ingredient data from the user's My Ingredient Database. -
Create batch sheets.Nutrasheets can read the current active sheet, create a new sheet with formatting and text, and insert data from the current active sheet into the new sheet to create a batch sheet that is more conducive to test-kitchen, pilot plant and plant operations than the formulation sheet.
-
Search the USDA Nutrition Database for ingredients.Nutrasheets will query the USDA Food Composition Database with the search term of the user's choice and return search results based on this query. When the user selects the result and clicks the "Insert ingredients" or "Add to Drive ingredient database" button, Nutrasheets will retrieve the appropriate data from the USDA Database.
-
Create Nutrition Facts PDFs and images.In the Nutrition Facts dialog box, if the user clicks Create PDF, Create BMP, Create PNG, Create JPG, or Create TIFF, the Nutrition Facts are sent to an external web service to convert into the appropriate file format. The Nutrition Facts are confidential to the user and are protected the external service's privacy policy which is available upon request.
-
Stores user data in a database.A limited amount of user data (described below) is stored in a database to help regulate the use of the service and determine usage.
-
Client side scripts are used to create the Nutrasheets user experience.Nutrasheets relies on popular client-side script libraries to enable to functionality and appearance of the Nutrasheets sidebar and the Nutrition Facts dialog.
