Privacy Policy

Fitness Notebook · Last updated 17 August 2026

The short version. Fitness Notebook stores your fitness data so you can use it and get it back on a new device. We do not sell it, we do not share it with advertisers, and we do not track you across other apps or websites. You can delete everything at any time from inside the app.

Who we are

Fitness Notebook ("the app", "we") is a personal fitness, nutrition and journaling app for iPhone. This policy explains what the app stores, why, and how you remove it.

Using the app without an account

You can use Fitness Notebook without creating an account. In that case everything you enter stays on your iPhone and is never uploaded to us.

What we store when you sign in

If you choose to sign in with Apple to back up your notebook, we store:

Account identifiers — the unique user identifier issued when you sign in, and the name and email address Apple chooses to share. If you use Apple's "Hide My Email", we only ever see the private relay address.
Your fitness and nutrition data — your profile details (age, sex, height, weight and weight history, activity level, goal), your calorie and macro targets, your food diary entries, your workout plan, your set and session progress, your completed workout history, your goal and deadline, your Fitness Journal pages, your notes and your app preferences.

We do not ask for and do not store payment details, contacts, photos, precise location, or advertising identifiers.

Why we store it

Solely to make the app work for you: to keep your notebook backed up, to restore it when you sign in on another iPhone, and to keep multiple devices in agreement. That is the only purpose. We do not profile you, we do not build advertising audiences, and we do not use your journal or notes to train models.

How it is stored and protected

Data travels over encrypted HTTPS connections.
Your backup lives in its own isolated per-user database on Cloudflare's infrastructure, reachable only by a request carrying a verified sign-in token for your own account.
Sign-in tokens are held in the iOS Keychain on your device. The app never sees or stores a password.

Camera

The app can use your camera to scan a food barcode. Frames are processed on your device to read the barcode only. No photo or video is recorded, stored or uploaded.

Food database lookups

When you search for a food or scan a barcode, the app queries public nutrition databases — Open Food Facts and, if configured, the USDA FoodData Central database. Those requests contain only the search text or barcode number. They never include your identity, your diary or any other personal data.

Who we share data with

Nobody. We do not sell, rent or trade your data. We do not share it with advertisers or data brokers. We use Cloudflare purely as the hosting provider that stores your backup on our behalf. Data may be disclosed only if we are legally required to do so.

How long we keep it

Until you delete it. Your data is never deleted because a free trial or subscription ended — if you stop subscribing, your notebook stays exactly where it is.

Deleting your data

Delete Account — in the app, open Settings › Account & Backup › Delete Account. This permanently destroys your entire cloud backup and removes the copy on your iPhone. It cannot be undone.
Delete My Data — in Settings › Your data, this clears your notebook from the device and, when signed in, from your cloud backup too.
Sign out — removes the local copy from that iPhone while your cloud backup stays intact.

You can also revoke the app's access to your Apple ID at any time in iOS Settings › Apple Account › Sign in with Apple. Deleting your account in the app does not cancel an App Store subscription — Apple manages that separately in iOS Settings › Apple Account › Subscriptions.

Your rights

You can access, correct, export or delete your data. Everything the app holds about you is visible in the app itself and editable there. For any request we cannot satisfy in-app, email us.

Children

Fitness Notebook is not directed at children. The app is intended for people aged 13 and over, and calorie guidance is intended for adults.

Changes

If this policy changes materially we will update the date above and, where the change is significant, tell you in the app.
