This Privacy Policy explains how Calibr8 Nutrition ("we", "us", or "our") collects, uses, and protects your personal information when you use our adaptive nutrition platform. We are committed to protecting your privacy and handling your data transparently.

1.Who We Are

Calibr8 Nutrition is the data controller responsible for your personal information. We provide evidence-based adaptive nutrition tracking through our web application.

Contact: support@calibr8nutrition.com

2.Data We Collect

Account Information: Email address, name, and authentication credentials when you create an account.

Profile Data: Age, gender, height, and activity level to calculate your nutritional needs.

Health & Body Data: Weight, body fat percentage, and body measurements you choose to log. This is classified as special category data under GDPR and requires your explicit consent.

Nutrition Logs: Food intake, meal timing, and calorie/macro tracking data you record.

Voice Clips (optional): If you use voice meal logging, a short recording of your speech is processed to produce the text description of your meal. The clip is transcribed in memory and never stored on our servers; see AI-Powered Features below for details.

Usage Data: How you interact with the app, feature usage patterns, and device information for service improvement.

We do not collect data from third parties. All personal data comes directly from you.

3.Health Data Notice

Certain data you provide (weight, body fat, body measurements, and health-related dietary preferences) is classified as "special category data" under GDPR Article 9.

We only process this health-related data with your explicit consent, which you provide during account creation.

You can withdraw consent for health data processing at any time by deleting your account or contacting us.

This data is used solely to provide personalized nutrition recommendations and track your progress.

4.How We Use Your Data

Service Delivery: Calculate personalized calorie and macro targets, generate meal recommendations, and track your progress toward goals.

Account Management: Authenticate your identity, manage your subscription, and communicate important service updates.

Service Improvement: Analyze anonymized, aggregated usage patterns to improve features and user experience.

Support: Respond to your questions and provide customer assistance.

We do not use your data for automated decision-making that produces legal or similarly significant effects.

5.Legal Basis for Processing

Consent (GDPR Article 6(1)(a)): For processing your health data, body measurements, and sending optional marketing communications.

Contract Performance (GDPR Article 6(1)(b)): For providing the nutrition tracking service you signed up for.

Legitimate Interests (GDPR Article 6(1)(f)): For service improvement, security monitoring, and fraud prevention, where these interests do not override your rights.

For special category health data, we rely on explicit consent under GDPR Article 9(2)(a).

6.Who We Share Data With

We never sell your personal data. Period.

Service Providers: We share limited data with trusted providers who help us operate the service: Supabase (database hosting, EU region), Vercel (web hosting), Stripe (payment processing), Resend (transactional email delivery), Google Analytics 4 (anonymized usage analytics), and Sentry (error monitoring).

All service providers are bound by data processing agreements and can only use your data to provide services to us.

Legal Requirements: We may disclose data if required by law, court order, or to protect our legal rights.

7.International Data Transfers

Your data is primarily stored in the European Union (Supabase EU region).

Some service providers may process data in the United States. Where this occurs, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, such as Standard Contractual Clauses approved by the European Commission.

By using our service, you acknowledge these transfers necessary to provide the service.

8.How Long We Keep Your Data

Active Accounts: We retain your data for as long as your account remains active and you use our services.

Deleted Accounts: When you delete your account, we remove your personal data within 30 days. Some anonymized, aggregated data may be retained for analytics.

Legal Requirements: We may retain certain data longer if required by law (e.g., financial records for tax purposes).

Backups: Database backups rotate on a 7 day schedule, so deleted data leaves backups within 7 days. Uploaded files such as photos are stored separately from database backups and are removed directly when your account is deleted.

9.Your Rights

Access: Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.

Rectification: Correct any inaccurate or incomplete data.

Erasure: Request deletion of your data ("right to be forgotten").

Data Portability: Receive your data in a structured, machine-readable format.

Withdraw Consent: Revoke consent for health data processing at any time.

Object: Object to processing based on legitimate interests.

Restriction: Request limited processing in certain circumstances.

To exercise these rights, contact us at support@calibr8nutrition.com. We will respond within 30 days.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

11.AI-Powered Features

Our in-app AI nutrition assistant uses Groq's API to process your chat questions and provide personalized nutrition guidance. Only your message text is sent for processing; personal identifiers such as your name and email are not included in the request.

Groq operates with Zero Data Retention (ZDR) mode enabled, meaning your chat conversations are not stored or used for model training.

OpenAI's embedding API is used only to match your chat questions with our knowledge base. No personal data is involved.

Our weekly coaching insights feature uses Anthropic's Claude API to analyze aggregated nutrition and behavior data, including your calorie and macro intake, weight trend, logging patterns, and stated goal, to generate a personalized weekly summary. Your name and email address are not included in this data.

If you use the meal share card feature, the photo you choose to share is sent to fal.ai to remove its background. No account or health data is included in this request.

If you use voice meal logging, your short voice clip is sent to a speech-to-text provider to produce the transcript you then review and confirm. We use OpenAI as the primary provider, with Groq and ElevenLabs as automatic fallbacks. Only the audio and your app language are sent; your name and email are not included. The clip is transcribed in memory and is never stored by us; no audio recording is written to our servers or backups.

You can review the privacy practices of these providers at groq.com/privacy-policy, openai.com/privacy, anthropic.com/privacy, fal.ai/privacy, and elevenlabs.io/privacy.
