All of our providers are contractually obliged to protect your information.

6. International Data Transfers
DietaGo operates globally. Your data may be transferred to servers outside your country. We comply with the GDPR and other data protection regulations, implementing safeguards such as standard contractual clauses.
7. Children's Privacy
DietaGo is designed for users over 13 years of age. We do not knowingly collect information from children under that age without verifiable parental consent. If we discover information from minors without authorization, we will delete it immediately.
8. Cookies and Similar Technologies
We use cookies to maintain sessions, remember preferences, analyze usage and personalize content. You can manage preferences from your device or browser.
On the dietago.com website, we only use analytics cookies (Google Analytics) if you accept them in our cookie notice. Your choice is stored in your browser (localStorage), not in a cookie, and you can change it at any time from “Cookie preferences”, in the website footer. You'll find the details in the Cookie Policy.
9. Data Retention
We keep data while your account is active or as necessary to provide services. If you request deletion, we will delete or anonymize your data within 30 days, except where the law requires us to retain it.
10. Health Data
DietaGo can integrate with Apple Health (HealthKit) on iPhone and with Health Connect on Android. This integration is completely optional: it is only activated if you connect it from the app's “Health connections” screen, and you can choose one by one which data to share.
Data DietaGo reads from Apple Health / Health Connect and why
- Steps: today's and those of the last 7 days, to show them against your step goal and calculate your streak.
- Weight: the weights recorded in the last 30 days (for example, by a connected scale) are added to your DietaGo weight history, without duplicating days you have already logged. That history feeds your progress chart and the calculation of your daily calorie goal.
- Workouts (exercise sessions): those of the last 7 days, with their type, duration, distance and calories, are added to your exercise log so you don't have to log them by hand and so that the calories you burn are taken into account in your daily balance. Distance and total calories are only read as part of each workout.
- Active calories: what you've burned by moving, to compare with what you've eaten.
- Sleep: your hours of sleep, only on the days you haven't logged them yourself.
Data DietaGo writes to Apple Health / Health Connect
- Meals: calories, protein, carbohydrates and fat of what you log in your diary.
- Water: each glass you log.
DietaGo does not read or write any other type of health data.
Limited Use
DietaGo's use of information received from Health Connect complies with the Health Connect Permissions Policy, including its limited use requirements. The data read is used solely to show you your own progress within the app. It is not sold, not used for advertising or advertising profiles, not shared with third parties (except the providers that host the service for us, with the same safeguards) and not used to make decisions about credit, insurance or employment.
In addition to that integration, in DietaGo you can manually enter clinical and health markers —such as cholesterol, glucose, blood pressure, weight, hours of sleep or mood—. This data, together with data from Apple Health / Health Connect, is special category data and receives the highest protection.
Important about Health Data:
- We only access or process it with your explicit authorization
- This includes both the data from Apple Health / Health Connect and the clinical markers you enter yourself (cholesterol, glucose, blood pressure, etc.)
- We do not sell it or share it with advertisers
- If you turn on the coach or the AI analyses, these markers may be sent to our AI provider (OpenAI) with your explicit and revocable consent (see section 3.1)
- You can revoke access or consent from your device settings (on Android, Settings > Health Connect > App permissions > DietaGo), from “Health connections” in the app or by deleting your account, which also deletes the imported data
- Protected with the highest level of security
11. Push Notifications
With your permission, we send notifications for reminders, achievements and updates. Turn them off whenever you like from your device or app settings.
12. Changes to this Policy
We may update this policy periodically. We will notify you of significant changes through the app or by email. Continued use after changes constitutes acceptance.

14. Legal Compliance
This policy complies with:
- GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation - Europe)
- CCPA (California Consumer Privacy Act - USA)
- COPPA (Children's Online Privacy Protection Act - USA)
- Apple App Store Guidelines (Section 5.1.2 - Privacy)
