Privacy Policy
Last updated October 18, 2026
PlateSet ("the app", "we") helps people log food, water, sleep and body measurements, and lets them work with a coach. This policy explains what we collect, why, who can see it, and how to delete it. The app is run by Ironleaf Health LLC.
Some of what you log is health data. Our Consumer Health Data Notice covers it in detail.
The short version
- Your log is private to you, and to your coach only if you connect with one.
- Progress photos stay on your phone unless you share one with your coach.
- Daily notes are private unless you share them.
- We don't sell your data, show ads, or use advertising trackers.
- You can delete your account and data from inside the app at any time.
What we collect
| Data | Why |
|---|---|
| Email address and display name | To create and sign in to your account, and so a coach can recognise you. |
| Food, water, sleep, weigh-ins, body measurements, goals, targets and weekly check-ins | This is the log the app exists to keep, and what your coach sees if you have one. |
| Daily notes | Kept for you. Shared with your coach only if you share a note, or turn on "Share all my notes". |
| Progress photos | Stored only on your phone. If you share one with your coach, a compressed copy is uploaded so they can see it. Unsharing deletes that copy. |
| App settings (units, meals, humor, reminders) | To make the app work the way you set it up. Reminder times stay on your phone. |
| Restaurant items you add, and reports you make about items | Added items are shared with everyone who uses the app, with no name attached. Reports help us fix wrong information. |
| Food search words and scanned barcodes | To find foods. Searches usually go through our server. Barcode scans, and searches when our server can't be reached, go from your phone straight to Open Food Facts, which sees your device's internet address but not your account. |
| Health intake (optional): medical conditions, medications or supplements, injuries, food allergies, pregnancy or breastfeeding, eating-disorder history, exercise limits | Shared only with your current coach so they can coach you safely. You fill it in only if you choose to. |
| Crash and error reports (device model, Android version, what the app was doing) | To find and fix bugs. These don't include your log, notes or photos. |
| Purchase status (the one-time unlock, and coach subscriptions) and when your free week started | To unlock logging after the free week, and coaching features. Payment is handled entirely by Google Play; we never see your card. |
Who can see your data
- You.
- Your coach, if you join one with their invite code: your log, measurements, goals, check-ins, and any notes and photos you choose to share. When you join, you choose whether they also see what you logged before that day; you can change it later in Me. If you leave a coach, or switch to a new one, the new coach can't see notes or photos you shared before.
- Everyone, for restaurant items you add, without your name.
- Service providers who run parts of the app for us:
- Google Firebase (account sign-in, database, servers and crash reports)
- Google Play (subscriptions)
- USDA FoodData Central and Open Food Facts (food search). They receive search words and barcodes, not your account.
- Authorities, only if the law requires it.
We don't sell or rent personal data and don't share it for advertising.
Health information
The app stores health-related information you choose to enter. It's used only to show you your log and trends, power reminders and safety prompts, and share with your coach as described above. The app is not a medical device and doesn't give medical advice. See our Terms.
Where it's stored and how it's protected
Data is stored with Google Firebase in the United States, encrypted in transit and at rest. Access rules on our database let only you, and your coach where described above, read your records.
How long we keep it
We keep your data while you have an account. When you delete your account, your log, notes, photos you shared, settings and reports are deleted. Restaurant items you added to the shared list stay available to others, with no name attached. Crash reports are kept for up to 90 days. Deleted data is removed from our backups within 14 weeks. Your coach's own private notes and session records about you stay with your coach, under the Coach Terms.
Your choices and rights
- Delete your account in the app: Me → Account → Delete my account. Or follow these steps.
- Download your log as a CSV file (coaches can export a client's log; ask your coach, or contact us).
- Stop sharing any note or photo at any time, or leave your coach.
- Depending on where you live (for example California or the EU), you may have extra rights to access, correct or delete data. Contact us to use them.
Children
The app isn't for children. You must be at least 18 to use it. If we learn someone under 18 has an account, we'll delete it.
Changes
If we change this policy, we'll update the date above and, for important changes, tell you in the app.
