3Health data

Data about your weight, nutrition, workouts, heart rate and sleep is health data. We only process it with your explicit consent, which you give when creating your account.

You can withdraw that consent at any time: turn off the connection with Health Connect or Apple Health in your phone's settings, or delete your account. Withdrawal applies to the future.

We only use data from Health Connect and Apple Health to show it to you in the app and guide you. We never use it for advertising and do not sell or share it with third parties for other purposes.

4Processors and recipients
  • Supabase — database, sign-in and storage (including your progress photos)
  • Anthropic (Claude) — AI for the coach, meal scan and reports. Does not use your data to train models and only keeps it for a limited time for security
  • RevenueCat — management of your subscription status
  • Apple and Google — purchases, subscriptions and push notifications
  • Expo — sending push notifications
  • Sentry — crash reports to keep the app stable
  • Our email service — confirmation and reset emails

Agreements oblige all these parties to process your data only on our behalf and to secure it. Your friends only see what you share with them.

5Transfers outside Europe

Some processors are based in the United States. These transfers only take place with appropriate safeguards: the EU-US Data Privacy Framework or the European Commission's standard contractual clauses.

6How long we keep data

  • After deleting your account: your account, data and photos are erased immediately; backups within 30 days
