Tailored Nutrition

Privacy Policy

Effective Date: July 28, 2026

Tailored Nutrition LLC ("Tailored Nutrition," "we," "us," or "our") operates the website tailorednutritionllc.org (the "Website") and the Tailored Nutrition mobile application (the "App"). Together, the Website and App are referred to as the "Services."

This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect your personal information when you use our Services. Because our App collects sensitive health-related data to generate personalized nutrition plans, we encourage you to read this policy carefully.

Related Policies

This Privacy Policy works alongside our Consumer Health Data Privacy Policy, which provides additional protections for health data under state consumer health data privacy laws (including Washington, Nevada, and Connecticut). Where both policies address a topic, the more protective provision applies. Please review both documents to understand your full rights.

1. Information We Collect

We collect different types of information depending on how you interact with our Services.

1a. Website Visitors

Our Website is informational. The home page and these policy pages have no account system, no sign-up form, and no analytics or advertising code. We do not collect names, email addresses, or any other personal information from you when you browse them.

There is one exception. Our account deletion page exists so you can delete your account from the web without installing the App, as the app stores require. To confirm the request is really yours, that page signs you in, which means it sends your email address and password to our servers. It collects nothing else, and it stores nothing in your browser.

Our Website loads fonts from Google Fonts. As with any resource loaded from another server, that request discloses your IP address and browser information to Google. This happens on every page of our Website, including this one.

1b. App — Account Information

When you create an account in our App, we collect:

If you sign in using a third-party authentication provider (Google or Apple), we receive your email address and, optionally, your name from that provider. We do not receive or store your Google or Apple password.

1c. App — Health and Body Composition Data

Our App collects detailed health information through an in-depth survey to generate personalized nutrition plans. This includes:

Medications, health conditions, allergies, and reproductive health information are optional. You can complete the survey and use the Services without providing them, though the plan you receive will not account for them.

Before the survey begins, the App shows you a health data consent screen describing what is collected and how it is used. You must accept it to continue. You can withdraw that consent at any time by deleting your account.

For detailed information about how we handle consumer health data under state health data privacy laws, see our Consumer Health Data Privacy Policy.

1d. App — Usage and Tracking Data

As you use the App, we collect:

1e. App — Subscription Information

We do not directly collect or store payment card numbers. Payment processing for in-app purchases is handled entirely by Apple (App Store) or Google (Play Store) through their respective payment systems.

1f. Device and Technical Information

We automatically collect certain technical information to maintain and improve our Services:

We do not collect advertising identifiers (IDFA/GAID), GPS or other precise location data, contacts, photos, camera or microphone access, health data from other apps on your device, or biometric identifiers. The App never asks for location permission and cannot read your device's location. The only location signal that exists anywhere in our Services is the approximate, IP-derived one described above.

We do not connect to Apple Health, Google Fit, or any wearable or fitness tracker. Every piece of health information we hold is something you typed into the App yourself.

1g. Local Device Storage

To provide a seamless experience, certain data is stored locally on your device:

Data stored in your device's standard app storage (as opposed to the encrypted secure storage used for authentication tokens) is protected by your device's built-in security features (device lock, OS-level app sandboxing) but is not additionally encrypted by our App.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect for the following purposes:

Purpose Data Used Legal Basis
Personalized nutrition plans — Calculate your nutritional targets (calories, macronutrients, micronutrients) and generate AI-powered meal plans Survey responses, health data, dietary preferences Your consent; performance of services you requested
Adaptive recommendations — Refine your calorie and macronutrient targets over time through our adaptive TDEE system Food log, weight log Your consent; performance of services you requested
Time-sensitive updates — Automatically recalculate age, pregnancy week, breastfeeding stage, and training progression Date of birth, reproductive health data, training data Performance of services you requested
In-app chat assistance — Provide personalized answers through the nutrition assistant, if and when we make this feature available Profile data, chat messages Your consent; performance of services you requested
Account authentication — Verify your identity and provide secure access Email, password hash, auth tokens Performance of services you requested
Communications — Send password reset codes and service-related communications, and respond to support requests Email address Performance of services you requested; your consent (for marketing)
Service improvement — Improve our algorithms and Services Aggregated, de-identified usage patterns only Legitimate interest
Security and abuse prevention — Detect fraud, enforce rate limits, and prevent abuse IP address, device info, authentication logs Legitimate interest

3. AI and Automated Processing

Our Services use artificial intelligence to provide core functionality. We want you to understand exactly how your data is processed by AI systems.

Your data is NOT used to train AI models. Our AI provider, Anthropic, processes your data solely to generate responses on our behalf. Under Anthropic's commercial API data usage policy, customer API inputs and outputs are not used to train their models. Your health data, survey responses, and chat conversations are never used for AI training by our provider or by Tailored Nutrition.

We do not send your name, email address, or account identifier to our AI provider. The information we send is pseudonymous, but because it can include free-text medical details, it is not fully anonymous. Our provider retains data under its own policies, and we have not contracted for a zero-retention arrangement. To reduce cost, we also ask our provider to cache the reusable part of our prompts, which can hold that content on its systems for up to an hour.

3a. Meal Plan Generation

Meal generation is only partly an AI process, and we think the distinction matters for your privacy. Your meals are selected from a curated recipe catalog and portioned by our own software; nutrition values are computed from the USDA FoodData Central database. An AI model is then asked to write the recipe text around ingredients and amounts that are already fixed.

Because of that design, the data sent to our AI provider for meal generation is narrower than you might expect. The meal-writing request contains the ingredients and exact amounts we have already fixed, your dietary restrictions and religious dietary preferences, your food allergies, your food dislikes in your own words, and any food limits or timing guidance derived from the medications and conditions you disclosed. Those limits are sent as food names. The name of the medication or condition behind a limit is not written into the meal request itself, although it can appear in the short explanatory note attached to timing guidance. Your age, sex, height, weight, and overall energy expenditure are not sent for meal generation.

Two narrower cases send more. If you ask for an additional meal and describe what you want, that note is sent to our AI provider as you wrote it, after we strip control characters and shorten it. And if a generated meal drifts from your targets, we may send that meal together with your calorie and macronutrient targets for the slot so a model can help correct it.

3b. Health Data Interpretation

When you enter free-text health information during the survey, specifically medications with their doses and frequencies, medical conditions with any details you add, and custom allergy descriptions, that text is sent to our AI provider so it can be interpreted. The model returns nutrient effects, food restrictions, meal-timing notes, supplement suggestions, and an assessment of whether a stated dose falls outside typical ranges. This is the most sensitive data we send to any third party. It is sent as free text, exactly as you typed it.

3c. Nutrition Chat Assistant

The in-app chat assistant is not currently available to users. If we make it available, your messages, your current health profile including medications, conditions, and reproductive health status, your recent food and weight logs, and your recent conversation history would be sent to our AI provider so the assistant can respond in context.

3d. Nutrition Data Lookup

We query the USDA FoodData Central database for the nutrition values used to compute your meals. Only generic ingredient names are sent. No account identifier, personal information, or health data is included in these queries, and the results are cached on our servers.

3e. Automated Decision-Making

Our AI systems generate meal plan recommendations and nutritional targets based on the data you provide. These are recommendations, not binding decisions. You retain full control to:

We do not use automated processing to make decisions that produce legal effects or similarly significant effects concerning you.

3f. AI Limitations

AI-generated content, including meal plans, nutritional data, and chat responses, may contain errors, omissions, or suggestions that may not be appropriate for your specific health needs. While we strive for accuracy and cross-validate nutritional data against the USDA database, you should always verify critical nutritional information and consult with a healthcare professional before making significant dietary changes, especially if you have food allergies, medical conditions, or take medications.

3g. Personal Nutrition Profile

The Goals tab shows a written Personal Nutrition Profile summarizing your plan and what shaped it. The facts in it are calculated by our own software. To phrase them, we send our AI provider your daily calorie target, whether you are losing, gaining, or maintaining weight, how many days a week you train, and a note about how much your plan leans on protein. Your name, email address, account identifier, age, sex, height, weight, medications, and conditions are not sent for this feature.

4. Third-Party Service Providers

We use the following categories of third-party service providers to operate our Services:

We do not use any advertising network, data broker, marketing automation platform, or cross-app tracking service. Our App requests no advertising identifier and cannot present a tracking permission prompt, because it does not track you.

All third-party service providers are contractually bound to use your information only for the purpose of providing services to us and are prohibited from using it for their own purposes. If we change service providers or add new ones that handle personal data, we will update this policy accordingly.

5. Information Sharing and Disclosure

We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties for their direct marketing purposes. We do not share your data with advertising platforms, data brokers, social media companies, employers, insurers, or creditors.

We may disclose your information only in the following circumstances:

6. Cookies, Tracking Technologies, and Do Not Track

Our Website does not use cookies, tracking cookies, analytics services, or advertising pixels. We do not track your activity across other websites. The only third-party resource our Website loads is Google Fonts, which discloses your IP address and browser information to Google as described in Sections 1a and 4, and which does not set a cookie or identify you personally.

Our App uses local device storage (secure storage for authentication tokens) and the PostHog analytics SDK to collect usage events as described in Section 1d. PostHog does not use advertising identifiers or enable cross-app tracking. We do not use advertising networks or cross-app tracking technologies.

Do Not Track (DNT) and Global Privacy Control (GPC): Because our Services do not track users across third-party websites or apps, we do not respond to DNT browser signals — no third-party tracking occurs regardless. We honor Global Privacy Control (GPC) signals; however, since we do not sell or share personal information for advertising, no additional action is required when a GPC signal is detected.

7. Data Retention

We retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to provide the Services and fulfill the purposes described in this policy. The specific retention periods are:

Data Type Retention Period

Account Deletion

You can delete your account at any time from the More tab in the App. When you do, your account record, survey responses and the health data in them, meal plans, food and weight logs, adaptive calculations and first-week calibration, meal preferences, grocery cart, chat history, meal generation history, notification data and push registrations are permanently deleted from our active systems. Deletion is immediate and irreversible.

We want to be precise about what deletion does not cover. None of the following is your survey data, your logs, or your plan, those are deleted:

As disclosed in our Terms of Service (Section 13), we may retain anonymized, aggregated data sets derived from User Content that do not identify individual users. Such data cannot be linked back to you after account deletion.

Inactive Accounts

We do not currently delete inactive accounts. Your data is retained until you delete your account. We may implement an inactive account deletion policy in the future to comply with data minimization principles. If we do, we will update this policy with specific timelines and notify you by email before any deletion occurs.

8. Data Security and Breach Notification

8a. Security Measures

We implement the following security measures to protect your personal information:

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

8b. Breach Notification

8c. HIPAA Disclaimer

Tailored Nutrition is not a HIPAA covered entity or business associate. We do not create, receive, maintain, or transmit Protected Health Information (PHI) on behalf of any healthcare provider, health plan, or healthcare clearinghouse.
