Muscle Menu

Privacy Policy

Effective November 7, 2026

Muscle Menu ("we", "us") is a mobile app that ranks restaurant menu items by protein. We built it to work without an account and to keep personal information on your device. This policy explains what we collect, why, and your choices.

1. Information that stays on your device

Your goal, age, sex, height, weight, protein target, food-style preferences, favorite restaurants and meal log are stored only on your phone. We do not upload them to our servers, and we do not send them to analytics or advertising partners. You can erase them at any time in Me → Delete my data or by deleting the app.

2. Information we collect

• App usage events (for example: screen viewed, paywall viewed, item viewed, script copied) through Google Firebase Analytics, together with device type, OS version, app version, language and an approximate country derived from your IP address. These events do not include your body measurements, goal or health information.
• Crash reports through Firebase Crashlytics (stack traces, device model, OS version) so we can fix bugs.
• A random anonymous identifier from Firebase Authentication (anonymous sign-in). It is not linked to your name, email or phone number.
• Data issue reports you choose to send ("Report an issue"): the menu item, the reason and any note you type.
• Support messages you send through our support form: your email address and message.
• Purchases: subscriptions are processed by Apple (App Store) or Google (Google Play). We never see your payment card. RevenueCat, our subscription service provider, receives an anonymous app user ID and your purchase receipts so we can unlock Pro features and let you restore purchases. If you enter a creator code, that code is stored with your anonymous ID so the creator can be credited.
• Location (only if you allow it): used only on your device to show nearby restaurants while you use the app. The app downloads a public list of restaurant locations and measures distances on your phone. Your location is never sent to us or to anyone else.

3. How we use information

To provide and improve the app, fix crashes, fix menu data, provide support, manage subscriptions and credit creators. We do not sell or share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising, and we do not use health-related information for advertising.

4. Health information

Muscle Menu provides general nutrition information and is not a medical service. Information about your goals (for example, that you use a GLP-1 medication) stays on your device. If we add Apple Health or Health Connect features, data from those services will be used only to provide the feature you turn on, will never be used for advertising or sold, and will not be stored on our servers.

5. Service providers

Google Firebase (analytics, crash reporting, anonymous authentication, database for reports, website hosting), RevenueCat (subscriptions), Apple and Google (app distribution and payments). They process data on our behalf under their own privacy terms.

6. Retention

Analytics data is kept for up to 14 months. Crash reports for up to 90 days. Issue reports and support messages for up to 24 months. On-device data stays until you delete it.

7. Your rights and choices

Depending on where you live (including California, Washington, other US states, the UK and Australia), you may have the right to access, correct or delete your personal information, to withdraw consent, and to appeal our decision. Because we do not hold your profile on our servers, most data can be deleted directly in the app. For other requests use the support form (topic "Privacy" or "Delete my data"). We will respond within 30 days. We do not discriminate against you for exercising your rights.

8. Children

Muscle Menu is intended for adults 18 and over. We do not knowingly collect information from children.

9. Security and international transfers

We use encrypted connections (HTTPS) and the security controls of our providers. Your information may be processed in the United States and other countries where our providers operate.

10. Changes

We will post any changes on this page and update the effective date. Material changes will be announced in the app.
