This policy explains what information LiftFuel handles, where it is kept and who it is shared with. LiftFuel is a workout log and food diary. It has no user accounts and no sign-in.
Your data stays on your phone
Everything you enter in LiftFuel is stored only on your device: your workouts, sets, routines, records, food diary, saved foods, favourites, meals, body weight, goals and the answers from the first-launch setup (goal, sex, weight, height, age and training frequency). We do not run a server for the app and we never receive, see or store this information. Uninstalling the app or clearing its data deletes it.
Backups
The app can export a backup file and import it again. A backup is created only when you ask for it, and it is saved where you choose (for example your phone's storage or a cloud drive you pick). We never receive the file. Anyone you give the file to can read the data in it.
Camera
LiftFuel asks for camera permission only when you use the barcode scanner. The camera image is analysed on your device to read the barcode number. Images are never stored and never sent anywhere. You can use the app without granting camera permission and type foods by hand instead.
Food lookups with Open Food Facts
To find food information, LiftFuel sends the scanned barcode number, or the words you type in the food search, to Open Food Facts (https://world.openfoodfacts.org), a free, open food database. The request contains only the barcode or the search words and the technical data that any internet request contains (such as your IP address). It does not contain your diary, your body data or any account. The privacy policy of Open Food Facts is at https://world.openfoodfacts.org/privacy. Food data from Open Food Facts is available under the Open Database License.
Advertising
LiftFuel is free and shows ads provided by Google AdMob. There is a banner on some screens and, at most, an occasional full-screen ad after you finish a workout. Ads are never shown during a workout.
Google AdMob may collect and process device identifiers (such as the advertising ID), IP address, approximate location derived from the IP address, and information about ad interactions, to show ads, measure them and prevent fraud. In the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and Switzerland, LiftFuel asks for your consent through Google's consent form before personalised ads are shown, and you can change your choice at any time in Settings under Ad privacy. You can also reset or delete your advertising ID in your phone's settings.

How Google uses information from apps that use its services: https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites
LiftFuel never gives your workout, food, weight or setup data to advertisers or anyone else.
No sale of data
We do not sell personal data. We do not share your health, fitness or food information with anyone.
Children
LiftFuel is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from children.
Not medical advice
Calorie and macro goals in LiftFuel are general estimates based on common formulas. They are not medical or nutritional advice. Talk to a doctor or a qualified professional before changing your diet or training, especially if you have a health condition.
Security
Your data is protected by your phone's own security (screen lock and storage encryption). Connections to Open Food Facts and Google use encrypted HTTPS.
Your choices
You can view, edit and delete all of your data in the app at any time. You can withdraw ad consent in Settings under Ad privacy. You can deny camera permission and still use the app.
Changes to this policy
If this policy changes, the new version will be published at this address with a new "Last updated" date.
