What we collect & why

Plain language, no fine print. Here's exactly what data Macro Meal Hacks uses, why, and how to control it.

Food logs & macros

The foundation of every recommendation.

  • Used to track progress and personalize your daily targets.
  • Never sold or shared with advertisers.
  • You can export or delete everything from Settings.

Wearable data (Apple Health, Garmin, Whoop)

Optional. Lets us explain the 'why' behind your trends.

  • Sleep, stress, and activity help us correlate behavior with outcomes.
  • Only metrics needed for insights are stored — no raw heart-rate streams.
  • Disconnect anytime in Settings → Connected apps. We delete the data on disconnect.

Pantry & grocery

So suggestions match what you actually have.

  • Used to recommend meals from staples you already own.
  • Powers expiration reminders and smart grocery lists.
  • Never shared with grocers or third parties unless you opt into a sync.

Location & Dining Assist

Only on, only when you ask.

  • Used to notice when you're near a saved or recently visited restaurant.
  • Never tracked in the background — location is read at the moment of use.
  • Off by default. Toggle in Settings → Data permissions.

Personalization signals

Patterns we learn from your behavior in the app.

  • What blueprints you save, what you log most, what you skip.
  • Used to tune insights and reduce noise in your notifications.
  • Turn off personalization to receive generic recommendations.

Your controls

Everything above is opt-out.

  • Granular toggles live in Settings → Data permissions.
  • Export your full data set anytime in Settings → Export.
  • Delete your account and all associated data anytime.
