MacroBite Privacy Policy

This policy explains what MacroBite collects, how it is used, and the choices you have over your information.

Last updated: April 2025

MacroBite, Inc. ("MacroBite," "we," "our," or "us") provides an iOS app that helps users find fast food orders with verified macro information, curated recommendations, and AI-assisted order suggestions. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect personal information when you use the MacroBite app, this website, and related services.

1. Information We Collect

We collect information you provide directly, information collected automatically when you use the app, and information received from service providers.

Information you provide

  • Account details such as your name, email address, or sign-in credentials.
  • Profile details, goals, saved preferences, favorites, and support messages.
  • Nutrition-related preferences or inputs you choose to provide, such as macro targets, goals, or preferred chains.

Information collected automatically

  • App usage data, including screens viewed, actions taken, search activity, and feature interaction.
  • Device and technical information such as device type, operating system version, app version, crash information, and diagnostic data.
  • Approximate or precise location information if you choose to grant location access for nearby restaurant discovery.

Information from third parties

  • Apple may provide subscription, purchase, or account-related confirmation data to support billing and entitlement management.
  • Infrastructure and analytics vendors may provide event, delivery, and technical performance data to help us operate the service.

2. How We Use Information

We use collected information to:

  • Provide the app and its core features, including restaurant discovery, verified macro display, favorites, and AI-driven recommendations.
  • Authenticate users, manage accounts, and maintain subscription access.
  • Improve product performance, troubleshoot problems, monitor outages, and analyze usage patterns.
  • Respond to support requests, investigate abuse, and enforce our terms.
  • Communicate with you about product updates, policy changes, or support matters.

3. Health, Nutrition, and Location Data

MacroBite is a fitness and nutrition decision-support app. If you provide macro targets, eating goals, dietary preferences, or similar inputs, we use that information to personalize recommendations inside the app. We treat this information as sensitive in context even when it is not regulated as protected health information.

Location access is optional. If you enable it, MacroBite uses location information to surface nearby restaurants and improve local discovery. You can disable location access at any time in your device settings and continue using the app without that feature.

4. How We Share Information

We do not sell your personal information. We may share information only in the following limited circumstances:

  • With vendors and service providers that help us host the app, authenticate users, process analytics, or deliver support functionality.
  • With Apple in connection with subscriptions, in-app purchases, and platform-level services you use through the App Store ecosystem.
  • When required by law, legal process, or a valid government request.
  • To protect the rights, safety, security, or property of MacroBite, our users, or others.
  • As part of a merger, acquisition, financing, or sale of some or all of our assets, subject to standard confidentiality protections.

5. Third-Party Services

MacroBite may rely on third-party service providers, including:

  • Apple for App Store distribution, account-related platform services, and subscription billing.
  • Supabase for hosted database, authentication, and backend infrastructure services.
  • Analytics and diagnostics providers to help us understand product usage and app reliability.

These providers may process information on our behalf under contractual restrictions and only as needed to provide their services to MacroBite.

6. Data Storage, Security, and Retention

We store information using cloud infrastructure and commercially reasonable safeguards designed to protect data from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. Account and app data may be stored using Supabase-backed infrastructure or comparable managed cloud services. Data in transit is encrypted, and we use access controls intended to limit who can reach production systems.

No method of transmission or storage is completely secure. We retain data only for as long as reasonably necessary to provide the service, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.

7. Your Rights and Choices

Depending on your location, you may have the right to:

  • Access, correct, or update certain personal information associated with your account.
  • Request deletion of your account and associated personal data, subject to legal or operational retention needs.
  • Request an export of data associated with your account where applicable.
  • Disable optional permissions, including location access, from your device settings.

To make a privacy-related request, contact privacy@macrobite.app. If you use an Apple-managed subscription, billing changes and cancellations must be made through your Apple account settings.

8. Children's Privacy

MacroBite is not intended for children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child under 13 has provided personal information to us, contact us so we can take appropriate action.

9. International Data Transfers

If you use MacroBite from outside the United States, your information may be transferred to and processed in the United States or other jurisdictions where our service providers operate. By using the service, you understand that these transfers may occur subject to applicable legal safeguards.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make material changes, we may provide notice through the app, website, or other appropriate means. The "Last updated" date above reflects the latest version.
