STapp

Privacy Policy

Effective date: May 27, 2026  ·  Last updated: May 27, 2026

STapp is a supplement routine organizer. We built it to be useful, not intrusive. This policy explains exactly what data we collect, why we collect it, where it goes, and your rights over it. We do not sell your data. We do not use your data for advertising.

1. Who We Are

STapp is operated as an independent application. For privacy inquiries, contact us at:
privacy@stapp.app

2. Data We Collect

Data Type What It Is Why We Collect It Linked to You?
Email address Your email, provided when you create an account Account authentication and password recovery Yes
Supplement data The supplements, dosages, and timing you enter To display and sync your routine across your devices Yes
Measurement preference Imperial or Metric display setting To show portion sizes in your preferred units Yes
Notification preferences Your reminder times (morning, midday, evening) To send local on-device reminders you've configured Yes
Camera images Photos of supplement bottles taken or selected by you To identify supplements via AI label scanning ("Snap to Stack") No — never stored
About camera images: When you use "Snap to Stack," your photo is sent over HTTPS to our own secure server (hosted on Vercel). Our server analyzes the image using Google's Gemini AI API and returns a list of recognized supplement names. The image is never stored on our servers or by Google after the analysis completes. We never retain, share, or use your photos for any other purpose.

What we do NOT collect

Anonymous / Local-only use

You may use STapp without creating an account. In this case, your supplement routine is stored only on your device using local storage and is never transmitted to our servers.

3. How We Use Your Data

We do not use your data for advertising, profiling, analytics sold to third parties, or any purpose beyond operating the app for you.

4. Third-Party Services

Service Purpose Data Shared Privacy Policy

5. Data Storage & Security

Account data (email and supplement routine) is stored in Supabase, which uses industry-standard encryption in transit (TLS) and at rest (AES-256). Supabase infrastructure is hosted on AWS.

Local-only users (no account) have data stored exclusively on their device. We have no access to it.

Notification reminder times are stored locally on your device and are not transmitted to our servers.

6. Data Retention

We retain your account data for as long as your account exists. If you delete your account, all associated data (email, supplement routine, preferences) is permanently deleted from our systems within 30 days.

Camera images are not retained. They are discarded immediately after the AI analysis returns a result.

7. Your Rights

To exercise any of these rights, email us at privacy@stapp.app. We will respond within 30 days.

Deleting your account

You can request account deletion at any time by emailing privacy@stapp.app with the subject line "Delete my account." We will permanently delete your account and all associated data within 30 days and send you a confirmation.

Note for Apple App Store users: Apple requires that apps with account creation also provide in-app account deletion. We are committed to providing this — if this feature is not yet available within the app, please use the email above and we will process your deletion request within 30 days.

8. Children's Privacy

STapp is not directed at children under 13 (or under 16 in the European Union). We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, contact us at privacy@stapp.app and we will delete it promptly.

9. Medical Disclaimer

STapp is an educational organizer, not a medical device or service. The information provided is for general informational purposes only, sourced from the NIH Office of Dietary Supplements, NCCIH, and peer-reviewed research. STapp does not diagnose conditions, recommend dosages for your specific situation, or replace the advice of a doctor, pharmacist, or registered dietitian. Always consult a qualified healthcare professional before starting, stopping, or changing any supplement — especially if you take medications or have a health condition.

10. Changes to This Policy

If we make material changes to this policy, we will update the effective date at the top of this page. For significant changes affecting how we use your data, we will notify you by email (if you have an account) before the changes take effect. Continued use of STapp after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
