Consumer Health Data Privacy Policy
Effective July 2, 2026 · Last updated August 15, 2026
This policy is provided by Nisarg Chaudhary, the independent developer who operates the FitGlass iOS app, to satisfy the Washington My Health My Data Act (RCW 19.373) and Nevada SB 370. It describes how FitGlass collects, uses, and shares consumer health data. FitGlass’s general privacy practices are described in our Privacy Policy.
Categories of consumer health data we collect
- Nutrition and dietary intake data: the foods you log, including food names, portion details, meal type, timestamps, calories, macronutrients (protein, carbohydrates, fat, fiber), micronutrients, and derived daily and monthly nutrition totals.
- Hydration data: the drinks you log, including the amount and the time you logged them.
- Body measurements and characteristics: sex, age, weight, height, and (optionally) a target weight.
- Health-related goals and preferences: activity level, motivation (e.g., lose fat, maintain), dietary preferences, meal schedule, and daily calorie/macronutrient and water targets.
- Photographs of food you choose to submit for AI analysis, and text descriptions of what you ate — whether you typed them or spoke them. Spoken descriptions are converted to text by your own device; the audio is never collected, transmitted, or stored.
- Bodily-activity data read from Apple HealthKit with your permission (active energy, resting energy, steps, exercise minutes, workout history). This data is displayed on your device only and is never transmitted to our servers or any third party.
Sources of consumer health data
- Directly from you — profile entries, foods and drinks you log, text and photos you submit to the AI food logger, and descriptions you speak (your device transcribes them on-device; only the resulting text is submitted).
- From your device with your permission — Apple HealthKit readings (kept on-device).
- Derived by us — computed nutrition targets and aggregated daily/monthly totals of the entries you logged.
Why we collect and use it
We collect and use consumer health data only to provide the services you request:
- Calculating your nutrition targets and displaying your dashboard, charts, and widget.
- Analyzing food descriptions and photos you submit so you can log them.
- Generating a meal plan when you ask for one, using your nutrition targets and your dietary constraints.
- Summarizing what you have already logged when you ask about your history.
- Writing the nutrition and water you log to Apple Health, if you enable it.
- Measuring and improving the accuracy of the AI food logger (records of what the AI proposed versus what you saved).
- Securing the service (authentication, per-user data isolation, rate limiting).
We do not use consumer health data for advertising or marketing, and we do not sell consumer health data. We do not process it for any purpose beyond those listed above without asking for your consent first.
Who we share it with
Affiliates: none. FitGlass is operated by a single individual developer with no affiliated companies.
Categories of third parties (processors acting on our instructions):
Both bullets below are the same company. Since August 15, 2026, Google is our only processor of consumer health data.
- Google LLC (Firebase / Google Cloud) — hosts our database and backend; stores your profile and food log in the United States.
- Google LLC (Google Cloud Vertex AI) — receives what you submit through the AI logger, solely to generate the analysis you asked for. That is: the food descriptions (typed, or transcribed from your speech on your device), photos, your daily targets, and a summary of your recent entries. If you ask for a meal plan it also receives your dietary constraint tags, including any allergy tag and the halal and kosher tags. If you ask about your history it also receives your daily and monthly nutrition totals for the past 7 days and 3 months. Google’s cloud terms state it does not use this content to train its models and does not keep it beyond producing the response, except that requests its automated safety classifiers flag may be kept up to 90 days. No audio is shared with Google or with anyone else. Until August 15, 2026 this processing was performed by Anthropic PBC, which no longer receives anything.
No other third party receives consumer health data. We do not share consumer health data with advertisers, data brokers, or analytics providers (our analytics events contain no health data content).
Your rights
If you are a Washington or Nevada resident, you have the right to:
- Access your consumer health data, including a list of the third parties with whom we have shared it.
- Withdraw consent to our collection and sharing of consumer health data.
- Delete your consumer health data.
How to exercise your rights
- In the app: Profile → Export my data (access), Profile → Delete account (deletion of your account and health data), and iOS Settings → Privacy & Security → Health → FitGlass (withdraw HealthKit access). Voice input is turned off by withdrawing Microphone or Speech Recognition access in the same Settings → Privacy & Security screen.
- By email: fitglass.app@gmail.com, from the email address on your account (this is how we verify your identity). We will respond within 45 days.
Withdrawing consent for the AI logger is as simple as not using it — no health data is sent to Google’s AI except when you submit a request. The same is true of voice input: declining or withdrawing the Microphone or Speech Recognition permission disables it and nothing else, and you can still log food by typing, by photo, by searching the USDA database, with a quick add, or by hand. To withdraw consent for all collection, delete your account; the app cannot function without processing the food you ask it to track.
Appeals
If we decline a request, you may appeal by replying to our response with the word “appeal.” We will review and respond within 45 days of receiving the appeal. Washington residents who are unsatisfied with the outcome may contact the Washington State Attorney General.
