Your data
What Armat records, where it goes, and what it does not do.
What is collected
What you tell us
Your email address, and a nickname if you set one.
Setup answers: sex, date of birth, height, activity level and goal. These are the terms in the calorie formula — that is the only reason they are asked for.
Your diet and any allergies you enter.
What you log
Habits and every check-in.
Food entries, with the calories and macros recorded at the moment you logged them.
Water, weigh-ins, and the goals you set.
Recipes you save, generate or import.
What your device provides
Your time zone, so a meal logged at 9pm lands on today and not tomorrow.
Your step count — but only if you keep a steps habit, only on iPhone, and only once you have allowed motion access. The app reads the last seven days when you open it, records them against that habit, and asks for nothing else from the sensor.
Nothing else. There is no location, no contacts, no advertising identifier, and no device fingerprint.
Where it goes
These, and nothing else. The last one only applies if you import a recipe from a video link.
Supabase
Hosts the database and handles sign-in. Everything above is stored there, and row-level security means a request carrying your sign-in can only ever read your own rows.
USDA FoodData Central
When you search for a food, the words you typed are sent to look it up. Nothing about you goes with them.
Open Food Facts
When you scan a barcode, the barcode is sent to look up the product. Nothing about you goes with it.
Anthropic
A photo you take of a meal is sent to be read, and is not kept afterwards — not by this app, and there is no meal-photo history anywhere to leak.
Building a recipe sends your diet, your allergies and the targets you asked for, so the result respects them.
Importing a recipe sends the address you pasted so the page can be fetched and read.
Importing from a YouTube or TikTok link asks that site for the video’s public description, and may then fetch the recipe page it links to.
None of these carry your name, your email or any account identifier.
YouTube or TikTok
Only if you import a recipe from a video link. The address is sent to fetch that video’s public description, and the recipe page it links to may then be fetched too.
Nothing about you is sent, and no account of yours is involved.
What never happens
· No analytics, no crash reporting, no advertising, no attribution.
· Nothing is sold, and nothing is shared with anyone not listed above.
· No push tokens. Reminders are scheduled on your device and never leave it.
· Meal photos are never stored.
Keeping and removing it
Your logs are kept while your account exists, because the whole point of a tracker is that last month is still there. Deleting your account removes all of it, permanently and immediately — there is no waiting period and no archived copy.
Individual entries can be deleted at any time without deleting the account: swipe a food entry or a habit, and it goes. Your whole account can be deleted in the app under Settings, or from your account page on this site.
One thing worth knowing
Armat is not a medical service. Nothing in it diagnoses anything or replaces a licensed professional, and no figure it shows you — a calorie target, a BMI, a recipe score — is advice about your health.
