Privacy Policy
Last updated: 26 October 2026
The short version. Your Body Bro is a personal food, activity and training tracker. Your information is yours. We don’t sell it, we don’t show ads, and we don’t use tracking or analytics tools. By default everything stays on your own device. If you choose to create an account, a copy is saved securely so it syncs across your devices.
Who we are
Your Body Bro (“the app”, “we”, “us”) is a free web app at yourbodybro.com . This policy explains what information the app handles and why. We follow the Australian Privacy Principles in the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth).
Questions or requests: bodybroau@gmail.com
What the app stores
Only what you choose to enter or connect:
The name you want to be called by.
Your food diary, meals, recipes, water and the foods you create or scan.
Your activity and workouts, and steps if you bring them in from Apple Health.
Body measurements such as weight, height, goal weight and other measurements you choose to track.
Your goals and settings.
Progress photos, if you add any. Photos stay on your device and are never uploaded to our servers. They are only included in backup files that you save yourself.
Some of this is health-related information, which we treat as sensitive. It is used only to run the features you see in the app.
Where it is kept
On your device (default). Without an account, your information is kept in your browser’s storage on your own device. Clearing your browser data, or deleting the app from your Home Screen, can remove it, so the app offers a backup file you can save.
In your account (optional). If you create an account, a copy of your app information (everything above except progress photos) is stored on servers run by our database provider, Supabase, so you can use the app on more than one device. It is protected so that only you, signed in to your own account, can read or change it.
Signing in
Email and password: we store your email address and a protected (hashed) version of your password.Sign in with Google: Google tells us your email address and name. We don’t get access to your Gmail, contacts, calendar, Drive or any other Google data.
Community food library
When you scan a barcode or read a nutrition label for a product, then log it, and the product isn’t found online, the app can add it to a shared food library so other people can find it too. What is shared: the product name, barcode and nutrition numbers. Your name, email address and diary are not shared. Each entry is linked to an anonymous account ID, not to your name or email, so the app can tell when two different people entered matching numbers.
You can turn sharing off at any time in Profile → Community foods. Foods you shared are deleted if you delete your account. Anyone can report a food with wrong numbers.
