Privacy Policy

Last updated: August 11, 2026

This privacy policy describes how Fitlas ("we", "our", "the app") collects, uses, and protects your information when you use our mobile application.

Information We Collect

Subscriptions & Payments

Fitlas Pro purchases are made through Apple's App Store. Apple processes the payment as merchant of record. We use RevenueCat to manage subscription entitlements: it receives your app account ID (a random identifier tied to your Fitlas account), purchase history for this app, and basic device metadata in order to validate purchases and keep your Pro access in sync across devices. RevenueCat acts as our data processor and does not use this data for its own purposes (RevenueCat privacy policy).

Website Waitlist (closed)

Before Fitlas launched, our website offered a waitlist that collected your email address only, used solely to notify you about early access (TestFlight) and the app's launch, based on your consent. The waitlist is now closed, those emails were never shared with anyone or used for any other marketing, and the list is being deleted now that launch notifications are complete. If you were on it and want confirmation of removal, email us at the contact address below.

Contributing Products to Open Food Facts

Fitlas uses the open Open Food Facts database for food search and barcode scanning. Their data is made available under the Open Database License (ODbL). If you scan or enter a barcode that isn't in that database yet, we offer you the option to add it — this is always opt-in and never happens automatically.

If you choose to share, the product information is sent: barcode, product name, brand, nutrition values per 100g and — if you fill them in — the optional sugar, saturated fat, salt, fibre and category fields. Your name, email and account ID are not sent, and the contribution is credited to Fitlas rather than to you.

Alongside the product we send a pseudonymous contributor code. It is a one-way cryptographic hash of your account ID, created with a secret key that only we hold, so Open Food Facts cannot reverse it or link it to you. It exists so that their moderators can act on a single contributor who submits bad data, instead of having to block every Fitlas user at once. The same account always produces the same code.

Contributed product data becomes part of a public, openly licensed database and cannot realistically be withdrawn once published, so please only share products you are happy to make public. We keep an internal record of which products were contributed so we can avoid duplicates and report totals; you can request deletion of that record at any time (see Your Rights).

Artificial Intelligence

Fitlas contains no AI features, and we do not use your personal data to train, fine-tune or evaluate AI models — our own or anyone else's. We do not share your data with AI providers. If we ever add an AI-powered feature, we will disclose it in the app before you use it and update this policy first. See our AI Transparency Statement for the full picture.

How We Use Your Information

Data Storage & Security

Your data is stored securely on Supabase (hosted on AWS) with row-level security policies ensuring you can only access your own data. All data is transmitted over HTTPS. We do not sell your data to third parties.

Data Sharing

Your Rights

Analytics & Crash Reporting

We use privacy-friendly analytics (PostHog, hosted in the EU) to understand how the app is used — for example which features are opened and where people drop off during onboarding — so we can improve it. This data is tied to a random identifier, not to your name or email, and we never sell it. We also use Sentry to capture crash and error reports so we can fix problems. You can request deletion of this data at any time (see Your Rights).

Third-Party Services

Children's Privacy

The app is not intended for children under 13. We do not knowingly collect data from children.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy from time to time. Changes will be posted in the app and on this page with an updated date.

Data Retention

We retain your data for as long as your account is active. If you delete your account, all personal data is permanently erased within 24 hours. Aggregated, anonymized usage statistics (which cannot identify you) may be retained indefinitely for app improvement purposes.

Legal Basis for Processing (GDPR)

We process your data based on:
