🔥 Lean Machine — Privacy Policy

Last updated:
The short version: Lean Machine stores all your personal data locally on your own device. Nothing is uploaded to our servers, because we don't have any servers. The only time data leaves your device is if you choose to use the optional AI features, in which case your data is sent directly from your device to Anthropic's Claude API using your own API key.

1. What information we collect

Lean Machine collects only the information you choose to enter into the app:

2. Where your data is stored

All data listed above is stored in your device's local browser storage (localStorage). It never leaves your device unless you explicitly choose to use a feature that requires it to.

We — the publisher — do not operate a server. We cannot see, access, or recover any of your data. If you uninstall the app or clear your browser data, all your information is permanently deleted.

3. Optional AI features

The app offers optional AI-powered features (progress analysis, body composition analysis, meal optimization, workout coaching). These features require an API key from Anthropic.

When you use these features:

4. Photos and camera access

The app may request camera or photo library access so you can capture or upload body progress photos. Photos are stored only on your device. They are sent to the AI service only if you explicitly tap "Analyze with AI" on a photo.

5. What we DON'T collect

6. Children

Subscriptions & payments

The optional AI subscription ($9.90/month) is billed entirely by Google Play. We never see or store your payment details. To verify your subscription, our relay checks your Google Play purchase token with Google and issues a short-lived access token to your device. If your gym provides Lean Machine AI, activation uses a gym code and counts one seat per device; no personal information is required.

Lean Machine is intended for adults aged 18 and over (designed for adults 18 and above). The app requires an age of 18+ during setup and collects health-related personal data that is not appropriate for minors. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 18. If you are a parent and believe your child has used the app, you can clear all data by resetting the app from the user menu.

Not medical advice

Lean Machine is a fitness tracking and coaching tool. Nothing in the app — including AI-generated coaching, body composition estimates, and meal or training suggestions — is medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. The app never provides dosing or protocol guidance for medications, hormone therapy, or peptides. Always consult a qualified physician before changing your diet, training, supplements, medications, or hormone therapy.

7. Your rights

Since all data is stored on your device, you have full control:

8. Security

Your password is hashed (SHA-256) before being stored locally. However, because the app runs entirely on your device, the security of your data depends on the security of your device. We recommend:

9. Changes to this policy

If we update this privacy policy, the "Last updated" date above will change. Significant changes will be announced in the app.
