JOSH: PRIVACY POLICY
Last updated: October 14, 2026

JOSH is a personal training and nutrition tracker. This policy explains what the app collects, why, and your choices.

WHAT WE COLLECT
- Account: your email address, and your name if you choose to share it.
- What you log: foods and their nutrition values, lifts (exercise, weight, reps), body composition scan numbers, your targets, and your chat messages to the in-app logger.
- Photos you choose to send: food, nutrition label or scan photos are sent once to be read and are not stored by us.
- Barcodes you scan: only the barcode number is sent to Open Food Facts, a public food database, to look up the label. No personal data goes with it.
- Apple Health (only if you allow it): daily active and resting calories, sleep, heart rate variability, resting heart rate, body weight, and workout summaries (type, start time, duration, calories). The app reads these to show your burn and recovery. It does not write to Apple Health.

HOW WE USE IT
Only to run the app for you: show your totals, charts and progress, and turn your messages and photos into log entries. We do not sell your data, do not use it for advertising, and do not share it with data brokers. Health data from Apple Health is never used for advertising or marketing.

WHO PROCESSES IT
- Supabase (database, sign-in and server functions) stores your account and logs.
- Anthropic (Claude API), a third-party AI service, only after you allow AI logging in the app. When you use Log to Josh or scan reading, JOSH sends Anthropic your message, any photos you attach, and context needed for an accurate answer: your first name, recent food log, usual foods, targets, plan, lift history and latest scan weight. Your Apple Health data is never sent to Anthropic. Anthropic processes this only to answer you and does not use API data to train its models. You can turn AI logging off any time in Settings.
- Apple, only if you choose Sign in with Apple.

SECURITY
Data is sent over encrypted connections. Each account can only access its own rows.

YOUR CHOICES
- You can edit or delete any entry in the app.
- You can turn off Apple Health access at any time in iPhone Settings > Health > Data Access & Devices > JOSH.
- You can delete your account and all of your data in the app: Settings > Delete account and all data. Deletion is immediate and permanent.

CHILDREN
JOSH is not directed to children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect their data.

NOT MEDICAL ADVICE
JOSH provides general fitness and nutrition information only. It is not medical advice. Talk to a doctor before making major changes to your diet or training.

CHANGES
If this policy changes, the date above will change and the app will show the new version.
