Privacy Policy

Effective date: April 1, 2026

1. What We Collect

When you use AkFit, we collect the following information:

Account information:

• Email address (used for authentication and account recovery)
• Display name (optional, shown in the app)
• Authentication credentials (passwords are hashed and never stored in plain text; if you sign in with Apple or Google, we receive only the information those services share with us)

Profile and health information:

• Date of birth, sex, height, and weight (used to calculate your calorie and macro targets using standard TDEE formulas)
• Activity level and fitness goal (fat loss, maintenance, or muscle gain)

Usage data:

• Food log entries (what you log, portions, macros, timestamps)
• Saved meals and favorite foods
• Weight progress entries
• Daily notes

Technical and analytics data:

• Crash reports and error logs (via Sentry) to fix bugs
• Anonymous usage analytics (via PostHog) to understand how features are used — for example, which screens are visited and whether barcode scanning succeeds
• Device type, operating system version, and app version

2. How We Use Your Data

We use your information to:

• Provide the core app experience: calculating your calorie and macro targets, logging food, and tracking progress
• Authenticate your account and keep your data secure
• Fix crashes and improve app stability
• Understand how features are used so we can improve the product
• Communicate with you about your account (e.g., password reset emails)

We do not use your data for advertising, and we do not sell or share your personal information with third parties for marketing purposes.

3. Third-Party Services

AkFit uses the following third-party services to operate:

• Supabase — authentication and database hosting (your data is stored securely on Supabase's infrastructure)
• Apple / Google Sign-In — optional authentication providers (governed by their respective privacy policies)
• Sentry — crash and error monitoring (receives technical error data only, not food logs or personal health data)
• PostHog — product analytics (receives anonymized usage events, not personal health data)
• Open Food Facts — food and nutrition data lookup via barcode scanning (no personal data is sent; only the barcode number is queried)

4. Data Storage and Security

Your data is stored on Supabase's cloud infrastructure with row-level security (RLS) enabled, meaning your account can only access your own data. Passwords are cryptographically hashed. All data is transmitted over HTTPS.

While we take reasonable measures to protect your information, no method of electronic storage is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security.

5. Your Rights and Data Deletion

You have the right to:

• Access your data — everything you've logged is visible in the app
• Delete your account — you can delete your account from the Settings screen in the app. This permanently deletes your profile, all food logs, saved meals, favorites, goals, and progress entries. This action is irreversible.
• Request a copy of your data — contact us at the email below and we will provide your data in a standard format

Account deletion is handled via cascading deletes in our database, ensuring all associated data is removed when you delete your account.

6. Children's Privacy

AkFit is not intended for children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we become aware that we have collected data from a child under 13, we will delete that data promptly.

7. Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. If we make significant changes, we will notify you through the app or by email. The "Effective date" at the top of this page indicates when this policy was last updated.

8. Health Disclaimer

AkFit is a nutrition tracking tool, not a medical device. Calorie and macro targets are estimates based on standard formulas (Mifflin-St Jeor) and should not be treated as medical advice. Consult a healthcare professional before making significant dietary changes.
