KETONOIR
Version 1.5 · Effective 2026-07-22
This Privacy Policy describes how Ketonoir LLC (“KetoNoir,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, stores, and protects information when you use the KetoNoir mobile application, web application, and related services (collectively, the “Service”).
By accessing or using the Service, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with this policy, please do not use the Service.
1. Information We Collect
Account Information. Name, email address, password (encrypted), and date of birth for age verification.
Profile Information. Height, weight, sex, body composition (if you provide it), activity level, dietary preferences, and health goals you voluntarily enter.
Health Screening Responses. Answers you provide during onboarding screening regarding pregnancy, organ disease, eating disorder history, medication use, gallbladder issues, type 1 diabetes, recent cardiac events, SGLT2 inhibitor use, and active cancer treatment. The screening determines whether AI coaching features are enabled or restricted to general tracking mode.
Food and Nutrition Data. Meals logged, macronutrient intake, water consumption, exercise, ketone or glucose readings (if you choose to log them), and any other data you enter into tracking features.
Biomarker and Health-Measurement Data. Measurements you choose to log, or that the AI coach records at your request and with your confirmation. These include body weight and body composition, blood ketones (BHB), blood glucose, blood pressure (systolic and diastolic), and a blood lipid panel (total cholesterol, LDL, HDL, and triglycerides). You may enter these manually. Where you have connected a health platform and granted permission, certain measurements such as blood pressure may be read from Apple Health or Health Connect. Blood lipid values are entered manually only and are not read from Apple Health or Health Connect.
Meal and Body Photos. Photos you choose to capture and upload through the snap-logging feature. These photos are uploaded to KetoNoir’s backend and forwarded to Anthropic’s Claude vision API for nutritional analysis. Photos are not retained beyond what is necessary to complete the analysis and the resulting log entry.
AI Coach Conversations. Questions, messages, and responses exchanged with the KetoNoir AI coaching feature.
Payment Information. Subscription details processed through Apple App Store, Google Play Store, or Stripe. We do NOT store full credit card numbers on our servers. See Section 14 (Payment Information) for the full disclosure of how subscription payment data is handled.
Subscription State Metadata. When you purchase, renew, cancel, or change a KetoNoir Premium subscription, we receive and store subscription-state metadata associated with your account, including: the subscription tier (free, premium, or grandfathered), the source platform (Apple App Store, Google Play Store, or Stripe), the current subscription status (active, in trial, expired, in billing retry, or cancelled), the renewal or expiration timestamp, and the product identifier of the purchased package. This metadata is used to gate access to Premium features and to honor the entitlement you paid for. We do NOT receive or store the underlying card, bank, or wallet credentials used to make the purchase.
Communications. Feedback, support requests, and correspondence you send to us.
Device Information. Device type, operating system, app version, language settings, and a randomly generated 16-character device fingerprint that contains no personal information.
Usage Data. Features used, session duration, pages viewed, time stamps, and in-app actions.
Consent and Disclaimer Logs. Records of which disclaimers, terms, and policies you have accepted, including version numbers (e.g., medical_disclaimer v1.0, ai_coach_disclaimer v1.1, health_screening v1.1, terms_of_service v1.4, privacy_policy v1.5), timestamps, app version, and device identifier. When a disclaimer version is materially updated, you will be re-prompted to accept the new version.
Log Data. IP address, access times, and diagnostic data.
Crash Reports. Stack traces and runtime diagnostic data captured when the application encounters an error. Crash reports are processed by Sentry, our crash-reporting provider. Crash reports do not contain biomarker values, food log entries, AI coach conversation content, or other sensitive personal information.
Analytics Data. Aggregated, event-level behavioral data (e.g., feature usage, screen views, conversion events) processed by PostHog, our analytics provider. Analytics data does not contain biomarker values, food log entries, AI coach conversation content, or other sensitive personal information.
If you choose to connect third-party services (such as Apple Health, Google Fit, or social login providers), we may receive information from those services in accordance with the permissions you grant. We do not receive more than what you authorize.
Where you connect Apple Health or Health Connect and grant permission, KetoNoir imports the measurement types you have enabled, such as weight, blood glucose, and blood pressure. You choose which types sync, how far back the first import reaches, and whether syncing happens automatically. Imported readings are stored in your KetoNoir account alongside the readings you enter by hand, and are tagged with the health platform they came from. They are stored because your trends, your Metabolic Forecast, and your coach are generated from your logged history, which requires that history to persist. KetoNoir reads from these platforms and never writes back to them, so your OS health store is never modified. We do not sell this data, do not share it with any third party for advertising or marketing, and do not include it in analytics or crash reporting. You can disconnect at any time in the app, which stops further syncing, and you can delete individual readings or your entire account, which deletes the imported readings with it.
Where you connect Apple Health or Health Connect and grant the corresponding permission, the measurements we may read include body weight, blood glucose, and blood pressure. We do not read blood lipid values from these platforms, which do not expose a blood-lipid data type.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to:
- Provide, maintain, and improve the Service and its features.
- Process subscriptions, payments, and renewals.
- Personalize your experience, including macro targets, meal tracking, and AI coaching responses.
- Determine eligibility for AI coaching based on your health screening responses, and route you to general tracking mode if your responses indicate elevated risk for ketogenic dietary intervention.
- Send your AI coach conversations to our AI service provider (Anthropic) to generate responses.
- Communicate with you about updates, features, security alerts, and customer support.
- Send marketing and promotional materials (only with your consent, where required by law).
- Detect, prevent, and investigate fraud, abuse, and security incidents.
- Comply with legal obligations and enforce our Terms of Service.
- Conduct research and analytics to improve the Service (using aggregated, de-identified data where possible).
3. AI Coaching Feature and Third-Party AI Processing
The KetoNoir AI coach is powered by Anthropic’s Claude API. When you interact with the AI coach:
- Your messages are transmitted to Anthropic’s servers for processing.
- Anthropic processes your messages under its commercial terms and privacy policy.
- We do not send your full name, email, payment information, or precise location to Anthropic.
- Conversation content may include health and dietary information you choose to share with the AI coach, including biomarker values (such as ketones, glucose, weight, blood pressure, cholesterol and other lipid values, and macronutrient intake) used to personalize coaching responses.
- Meal and body photos uploaded through the snap-logging feature are forwarded to Anthropic’s Claude vision API for nutritional analysis. Photos are processed under Anthropic’s commercial terms and privacy policy.
- When you ask the AI coach to log a meal or a health measurement and you confirm the entry, the coach creates the corresponding record in your account (a food-log entry, or a biomarker entry such as weight, glucose, ketones, blood pressure, or a lipid value). No record is created unless you confirm it. You are responsible for the accuracy of the values you provide; the coach records the data you give it and does not independently measure, verify, or clinically interpret it.
For more information about how Anthropic handles data, please review Anthropic’s Privacy Policy at anthropic.com/legal/privacy.
You should not share highly sensitive information (such as Social Security numbers, financial account details, or specific medical diagnoses) with the AI coach. The coach does not diagnose conditions, prescribe medications, recommend supplement dosing, or adjust insulin doses. Per the AI Coach Disclaimer (v1.1), coach output is not reviewed by a licensed clinician on a per-message basis and you must independently verify any guidance with a qualified healthcare provider.

14. Payment Information
When you purchase a KetoNoir Premium subscription through the mobile application, the payment transaction is handled entirely by the platform operator that hosts the application (Apple, Inc. for iOS purchases or Google LLC for Android purchases). The web tracker accepts subscription payments through Stripe, Inc. KetoNoir does not see, receive, or store the underlying payment credentials used to complete the transaction.
Apple, Google, and Stripe collect and process all data required to complete the payment, including but not limited to: the payment card number or wallet identifier, the billing name and address associated with the payment method, the country and tax jurisdiction of the purchase, the currency, the gross amount charged, any taxes or fees collected, and the transaction identifier. The handling of this data is governed by the privacy policy of the applicable platform operator and not by this Privacy Policy.
- Apple’s privacy practices for App Store and In-App Purchase transactions are described at apple.com/legal/privacy.
- Google’s privacy practices for Google Play and Google Play Billing transactions are described at policies.google.com/privacy.
- Stripe’s privacy practices for web subscription transactions are described at stripe.com/privacy.
KetoNoir receives only the subscription-state metadata described in Section 1.1 (“Subscription State Metadata”). This metadata is delivered to our backend through RevenueCat, Inc., which acts as our subscription-state processor and validates receipts on our behalf. The subscription-state metadata is the minimum set of fields required to determine whether your account is entitled to KetoNoir Premium features on a given day, and consists of: subscription tier, status (active, in trial, expired, in billing retry, or cancelled), source platform (Apple, Google, or Stripe), renewal or expiration timestamp, and product identifier.
KetoNoir does not receive, request, or store: your full payment card number, your card expiration date, your card security code (CVV / CVC), your bank account number, your digital wallet credentials (such as Apple Pay or Google Pay device tokens), the billing address associated with your payment method, or the geographic location at which the purchase was made beyond the country and currency reported by the platform operator. If you wish to update your billing address, payment method, or other account-level payment details, you must do so through your Apple ID account settings, your Google Play account settings, or the Stripe Customer Portal, as applicable to the platform you used to subscribe.
Refund requests and payment disputes are handled by the platform operator that processed the original transaction, not by KetoNoir. See the Terms of Service for the specific refund procedure applicable to your purchase channel.
