Ask My Diet

Privacy Policy

Last updated: 2 November 2026

Short version. We collect what you enter (meals, weight, goals) to run your plan and coach. We send your messages and photos to an AI provider to write replies and estimates. We do not sell your data, and your health data is never used for advertising. You can delete your chat or your whole account in the app.

1. Who we are

Ask My Diet (the "app") is run by [Legal name of the person or company], [postal address] ("we"). We are the controller of your personal data. Contact: privacy@askmydiet.com.

Health and weight data are "special category" data. We process them only to provide the features you use, on the basis of your explicit consent, which you give when you enter or connect them and can withdraw at any time by deleting the data or your account.

3. Who receives it

  • AI provider (Anthropic). Your coach messages, the context needed to answer (goal, recent meals, plan) and meal photos or descriptions are sent to Anthropic to write replies and calorie estimates. Your steps and workouts are included only if you turn on "Share activity with the coach". Under the provider's commercial terms this content is not used to train its models.
  • Hosting and database provider: [hosting provider and country].
  • Expo (push notifications), RevenueCat (subscriptions), Sentry (crash reports, no personal content), the App Store and Google Play (payments).
  • Open Food Facts. If you scan a barcode, the phone sends only the barcode number to openfoodfacts.org.
  • Your nutritionist, only if you link one with their invite: they can see your meals, weight, waist, workouts and activity. Your chat with the coach stays private. You can unlink at any time.
  • Authorities when the law requires it.

We do not sell your data. Free-plan users may see ads. Ads are not personalised with your health, weight, goals, meals or coach messages, and no ads are shown while Apple Health or Health Connect is connected or while the app is in wellbeing mode.

4. International transfers

Some providers (for example the AI provider) are in the United States. Where required, transfers rely on the European Commission's standard contractual clauses or an adequacy decision.

5. How long we keep it

Until you delete it. Deleting your account permanently removes your profile, logs, photos, chat and links. You can also delete only your coach chat, any meal, or disconnect Health to delete what was imported from it. Backups are overwritten within [number of days] days. We may keep minimal records the law requires, such as billing data held by the stores.

6. Your rights

You can access, correct, delete, restrict or export your data, object to processing, and withdraw consent. Most of this is possible in the app (edit profile, delete meals, delete chat, delete account). For anything else, email privacy@askmydiet.com; we answer within one month. You can complain to your data protection authority ([your supervisory authority, e.g. CNIL in France]).

7. Security

Data is sent over HTTPS, passwords are hashed, meal photos are private to your account and access is limited. No system is perfectly secure; tell us at privacy@askmydiet.com if you find a problem.

8. Age

The app is for people aged 18 or over. We do not knowingly collect data from children.

9. Not medical advice

The coach gives general information, not medical advice, diagnosis or treatment. If you are struggling with food, mood or your body, please talk to a doctor or a support service.

10. Changes

If we change this policy in a way that matters, we will tell you in the app before it applies. The date above shows the latest version.
