4. Third-Party Services
We share data with the following service providers to operate the Service, measure app performance, and measure the effectiveness of Pynch's own ad campaigns:
Supabase
Our backend database and authentication provider. Stores your account data, health data, food logs, and all tracking information. All database access is protected by row-level security policies ensuring you can only access your own data. Hosted in the US (Oregon).
RevenueCat
Our subscription management provider. Receives your user ID and purchase events from the App Store, and receives attribution identifiers used for subscription conversion measurement. Does not receive your health data.
PostHog
Our analytics provider. Receives your user ID, email (if shared), usage events, session replays, and device information. Text inputs in session replays are masked. Console logs have email addresses, tokens, and API keys automatically redacted.
Meta
Our mobile attribution and ad measurement provider. When enabled, Meta receives limited app events and attribution signals such as onboarding completion, paywall views, checkout intent, ATT status, and campaign measurement identifiers. Meta does not receive your health data.
Apple Search Ads / AdServices
We use Apple's attribution framework to measure Apple Search Ads campaign performance. This may include Apple Search Ads attribution tokens and related conversion reporting. It does not include your health data.
Google Gemini & OpenAI
Our AI providers for food estimation. Receive food photos and descriptions only when you explicitly use the AI food scanning feature. Requests are processed through our server-side functions — your device does not contact these providers directly. No personally identifiable information is included.
Apple & Google (Authentication)
If you choose to sign in with Apple or Google, these providers receive an authentication request and may provide us with your email and name, depending on your sharing preferences.
We do NOT:
- Sell your personal data to third parties
- Share your data with data brokers
- Share your health data with any entity for purposes unrelated to providing the Service
5. Where Your Data Lives
Stored on your device only (never sent to our servers):
- Progress photos
- AI consent status and timestamp
- Authentication tokens (encrypted via iOS Keychain)
- Language preference
Transiently processed through our servers (not stored):
- Food photos — when you use AI food estimation, your photo is sent through our server to the AI provider for analysis, then discarded. The photo is not saved on our servers or in any database.
Stored on our servers (Supabase, US — Oregon):
- All tracking data (doses, weights, symptoms, food logs, daily check-ins, nutrition goals)
- Account information and onboarding preferences
- Photo metadata (filename, timestamp, notes — but not the photos themselves)
- Subscription status
6. Data Security
We implement the following security measures:
- Authentication tokens encrypted via iOS Keychain
- All data transmitted over HTTPS/TLS
- Row-level security on all database tables — each user can only access their own data
- Complete data removal on account deletion via cascade delete
- Automatic masking of sensitive data in analytics (email addresses, tokens, API keys)
- No passwords stored — authentication is delegated to Apple and Google
7. Data Retention and Deletion
- Active accounts: Your data is retained for as long as your account is active.
- Account deletion: When you delete your account (via Settings in the App), all your data is permanently and immediately removed from our servers. This action is irreversible.
- Local data: Photos and cached preferences on your device are not automatically deleted when you delete your account. You may remove them manually.
- Analytics data: Subject to PostHog's data retention policies.
- AI processing: Food photos and descriptions are processed in real-time and are not stored by us or AI providers beyond their immediate processing needs.
