Privacy Policy
Last updated: July 23, 2026
1. Overview
Trift ("we", "our", "the app") is a fitness tracking application. We are committed to protecting your privacy. This policy explains what data we collect, how we use it, and your rights.
2. Data We Collect
2.1 Health & Fitness Data
Your fitness data is stored locally on your device using SQLite and securely backed up to your account's cloud storage (see 2.3). This includes:
- Body measurements (weight, height, body fat, waist, chest, arm, thigh, hip circumference)
- Food logs (meals, calories, macronutrients)
- Workout logs (exercises, sets, reps, weight)
- Progress photos
- Daily check-ins (mood, energy, sleep ratings)
- Goals and preferences
2.2 Apple Health & Android Health Connect
With your permission, Trift reads and writes data from Apple Health (iOS):
- Reads: Steps, active calories burned, and weight
- Writes: Weight, nutrition/food calories, active calories burned, and exercise sessions
On Android, Trift integrates with Health Connect with equivalent permissions: it reads steps, active calories, and weight, and writes weight, nutrition, active calories, and exercise sessions.
Health data is used solely to display on your dashboard and keep your logs in sync. We never share Apple Health or Health Connect data with third parties or use it for advertising.
2.3 Account & Cloud Backup
You sign in to Trift with your Apple or Google account. From that sign-in we receive your email address and name — this is the only identity data we collect.
While you are signed in, your fitness data is automatically synced to our cloud (hosted on Supabase) under your account so it is backed up and can be restored on a new device by signing in with the same Apple or Google account. Synced data includes: profile, weight logs, food logs, workout logs, routines, achievements, daily check-ins, progress photos, and AI coach interactions.
2.4 AI Features
AI features (food photo analysis, meal suggestions, and coaching chat) are processed by Trift's servers and sent to OpenAI through an AI gateway using Trift's own credentials — you never need your own API key, and no account with any AI provider is required.
When you use an AI feature, the relevant context (for example a meal photo, or your recent nutrition and workout summary) is sent to generate the response. Your AI conversations are used only to provide the feature — never for advertising. The AI Coach chat is part of the Trift Pro subscription.
2.5 Food Database Lookups
When you scan a barcode or search for a food, the barcode number or search term is sent to our food-data providers — FatSecret, with OpenFoodFacts as a fallback — to fetch nutrition information. These lookups are not linked to your personal identity.
2.6 Analytics & Error Reporting
We use PostHog (EU-hosted) for usage analytics. We track:
- Feature usage events (e.g., "workout started", "meal logged") without the content of your data
- Screen views
- App lifecycle events
Analytics data is keyed to a random user ID. We do not send your name, email, or location to our analytics provider.
We use Sentry for crash and error reporting so we can find and fix bugs. Sentry may capture a session replay for a small sample of sessions (and for sessions where an error occurs); replays have text, images, and other content masked by default, so your health and nutrition data is not captured.
2.7 Photos
Meal photos and progress photos are stored on your device and backed up to our secure storage (Supabase Storage). Photos are only accessible to your account. Meal photos are additionally sent for AI analysis when you use photo food logging (see 2.4).
2.8 Emails
When you create an account, your email address and first name are added to our email service (Resend) so we can send you a welcome email and occasional product updates. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in any email, or by contacting us at support@trift.co.in.
3. How We Use Your Data
- To provide the core fitness tracking experience
- To generate AI-powered recommendations and meal suggestions
- To back up your data and sync it across your devices
- To improve the app based on usage patterns and error reports
- To send you the welcome email and occasional product updates
4. Data Sharing
We do not sell or rent your personal data, and we never share it with third parties for advertising. Data is only shared with the service providers that make the app work:
- OpenAI (via our AI gateway) — processes AI requests when you use AI features
- Supabase — hosts your account, cloud backup, and photo storage
- FatSecret / OpenFoodFacts — receive barcode numbers and food search terms for nutrition lookups
- PostHog — usage analytics (random user ID only)
- Sentry — crash and error reporting, with content masking
- RevenueCat — subscription management (purchase data only)
- Resend — sends the welcome email and product updates (email + first name)
5. Data Storage & Security
Your fitness data lives on your device and is backed up to Supabase's secure infrastructure under your account. Data is transmitted over encrypted connections, and access to your cloud data requires signing in with your Apple or Google account.
6. Data Deletion & Export
You can permanently delete your account and all your data at any time in the app: Profile > App Settings > Delete Account. This immediately deletes your cloud data (including photos), your account, and all local data on your device. Deletion cannot be undone.
Before deleting, you can download a copy of all your data via Profile > App Settings > Export My Data.
You can also request deletion by emailing us at support@trift.co.in.
7. Children's Privacy
Trift is not intended for children under 13. We do not knowingly collect data from children under 13.
8. Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top will reflect the most recent revision. Continued use of the app after changes constitutes acceptance.
