RecompFit Privacy Policy
Overview
RecompFit ("the App") is a body recomposition tracking app designed for users on GLP-1 weight management medications. Your privacy is critically important to us. This policy explains what data the App handles, how it is used, what is sent off your device, and your rights.
Apple Health (HealthKit) Data
With your permission, RecompFit both reads data from and writes data to Apple Health. You grant — and can revoke — these permissions in the Apple Health app.
Data RecompFit reads
| Data Type | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Body Mass | Track weight trends and calculate TDEE |
| Body Fat Percentage | Monitor body composition changes |
| Active Energy Burned | Calculate daily energy expenditure |
| Basal Energy Burned | Calculate resting metabolic rate |
| Dietary Energy Consumed | Monitor calorie intake against targets |
| Dietary Protein | Track protein floor adherence |
| Dietary Water | Monitor hydration |
| Workout Sessions | Detect day type (rest / gym / cycling) and training load |
| Heart Rate | Monitor cardiovascular fitness |
| Heart Rate Variability (HRV) | Assess recovery and readiness |
| VO2 Max | Track cardiovascular fitness trends |
| Sleep Analysis | Track sleep duration and quality |
| Menstrual Cycle data | Show cycle-aware insights — only if you turn on cycle tracking |
Data RecompFit writes
When you log a meal, water, or a workout inside RecompFit, the App writes that entry back to Apple Health so your Health and Fitness data reflects what you logged here. This is why RecompFit requests write access in addition to read access.
| Data Type | When it is written |
|---|---|
| Dietary Energy, Protein, Carbohydrates, Total Fat, Fiber, Sugar, Sodium, and Saturated Fat | When you save a logged meal |
| Dietary Water | When you log water |
| Workouts (including heart-rate and active-energy samples) | When you finish a live workout or log a past workout |
You can turn Apple Health read and write access on or off at any time — see "Your Control" below.
Where Your Data Is Stored
All Apple Health data, manual entries (DEXA scans, InBody scans, GLP-1 doses, symptoms, body measurements), journal entries, and your user profile are stored locally on your device using Apple's SwiftData framework.
RecompFit does not operate a server that stores your health data. Some features do send specific data to third-party services in order to work — for example, AI coaching, meal-photo analysis, and food search. Exactly what is sent, and to whom, is described in the next section. The developer of RecompFit does not retain that data.
Data Sent to Third-Party Services
Most of RecompFit runs entirely on your device. A few features send specific data off your device to third-party services so they can work. Each one is triggered only by an action you take. Network requests travel over an encrypted (HTTPS/TLS) connection and are routed through a backend proxy that forwards them without storing your data.
AI coaching check-ins — sent to Anthropic
When you start a weekly or daily AI check-in, anonymized health metrics — nutrition totals, workout summaries, and weight and body-composition numbers — are sent to Anthropic (the Claude AI service) to generate your coaching response. These check-in payloads do not include your name, email address, device identifiers, Apple ID, or location. You can use RecompFit without ever starting an AI check-in.
Meal photo analysis — sent to Anthropic
If you log a meal by photo, the photograph you take or select is sent to Anthropic to estimate the foods and nutrition it contains. A photo is content you choose, and RecompFit cannot edit it before analysis — please avoid including faces, documents, screens, or other identifying information in meal photos. This feature runs only when you choose the photo-meal option.
Food and barcode search — sent to Edamam, Open Food Facts, and Anthropic
When you search for a food by name or barcode, the text or barcode number you enter is sent to food-database providers — Edamam and Open Food Facts — and, if neither recognizes the item, to Anthropic for an AI estimate. These queries contain only what you type or scan.
How these third parties handle your data
Data sent for AI processing is used to produce the result you requested and is not retained by the developer of RecompFit. Each third party processes data under its own privacy and data-retention terms, which you can review on its website:
- Anthropic (Claude AI) — anthropic.com
- Edamam (food database) — edamam.com
- Open Food Facts (food database) — openfoodfacts.org
Food product information shown in search results is provided in part by Open Food Facts, used under the Open Database License (ODbL).
No Advertising or Data Selling
- We do not display ads in RecompFit.
- We do not sell or trade your health data, and we do not share it with advertisers or data brokers.
- The third-party services described in "Data Sent to Third-Party Services" are service providers that process data only to deliver a feature you asked for — they are not advertisers or data brokers.
- We do not use your data for advertising or marketing profiling.
Your Control
- Revoke Apple Health access at any time: iOS Settings > Privacy & Security > Health > RecompFit. You can turn read and write access on or off separately.
- Control what leaves your device — the off-device features described above run only when you use them. If you do not start an AI check-in, photograph a meal, or search for a food, no data is sent to those services.
- Delete all app data by uninstalling RecompFit. Because all of your data is stored on-device, uninstalling removes everything.
Data Security
- All network communication uses HTTPS/TLS encryption.
- Third-party API keys are stored server-side on our backend proxy — they never exist on your device.
- On-device data is protected by iOS device encryption and your device passcode or biometric lock.
Children's Privacy
RecompFit is not intended for use by children under 18. We do not knowingly collect data from minors.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy from time to time. Changes will be posted within the App and on our website.
