Delete Account & Data

Nourish is built with a privacy-first architecture. Unlike most apps, we don't maintain user accounts on our servers. Your personal data (food logs, recipes, weight, goals) is stored only on your device and optionally in your personal iCloud account.

This page explains how to completely remove all your data from Nourish and any associated services.

Understanding Your Data

Here's where your Nourish data is stored:

Step-by-Step Data Deletion

Step 1: Delete the App

Deleting the Nourish app will remove:

• All food logs and daily entries
• All custom foods and recipes
• Weight and water tracking history
• Your profile and goals
• Achievement and streak data
• All locally cached data

To delete the app:

1. Find the Nourish app on your home screen
2. Long-press the app icon until a menu appears
3. Tap Remove App or Delete App
4. Confirm by tapping Delete

Step 2: Remove iCloud Data (Optional)

If you want to ensure all iCloud-synced data is removed:

1. Open Settings on your device
2. Tap your name (Apple ID) at the top
3. Tap iCloud
4. Tap Manage Account Storage
5. Find and tap Nourish
6. Tap Delete Data

What Happens to Server-Side Data?

Device Authentication Tokens

When you use Nourish, we issue an anonymous device token for API authentication. This token:

• Is not linked to your name, email, or Apple ID
• Cannot be used to identify you personally
• Automatically expires and is deleted after 90 days of inactivity

No action is required - these tokens are automatically cleaned up.

Analytics Data

We use TelemetryDeck for privacy-focused analytics. This data:

• Contains no personal information (no name, email, or user ID)
• Cannot be linked back to you
• Is aggregated usage statistics only (e.g., "feature X was used N times")

AI Food Analysis

If you used the AI food photo feature, your images were:

• Analyzed on-device using Apple Intelligence when your device supported it, or sent through Cloudflare AI Gateway to a third-party AI model (currently OpenAI) otherwise
• Not stored by Nourish - only the nutrition results were returned
• Subject to the AI provider's own data retention policies for any photos processed in the cloud

Data We Never Collect

For your peace of mind, here's what Nourish never collects or stores on our servers:

• Your name or email address
• Your food logs or what you eat
• Your weight, height, or body measurements
• Your health goals or dietary preferences
• Your recipes or custom foods
• Your location data
• Your photos (AI analysis is real-time, not stored)
