Stack holds unusually sensitive information: what you are running, your dose history and your bloodwork. This page states plainly what we collect, who can see it, and what we will never do with it.
Only what the product needs to function:
We do not use advertising trackers, and we do not buy information about you from anyone else.
Food and body scan photos are sent to our AI provider for one-time analysis and are never stored. They are not written to our database, not kept on our servers, and not used to train any model. The only thing saved is the numbers you review and approve, and you can delete those at any time. Body photos are the most personal data this app could touch, which is exactly why we designed scanning so we never hold them.
In the iPhone app you can choose to connect Apple Health. We then read three things and nothing else: daily step counts, sleep duration and weight. Those readings are shown on your own Health screen alongside the values you enter by hand, and they are stored against your account like any other measurement you record.
We never write to Apple Health, never share Health data with anyone, and never use it for advertising or any purpose other than showing you your own trends. You can disconnect in the app at any time, and you can revoke the permission itself in the Health app under Sharing. Readings already synced stay in your history because they are your record; delete them if you would rather they did not.
Your records are stored in a database where every row is tied to your account, and the database refuses reads that do not belong to the signed-in user. That check sits below our application code, so a bug in the app is not enough on its own to expose one person's data to another.
Access tokens for connected devices are held in a table that the browser cannot read at all. They are used only by our servers to fetch your measurements.
A small number of people operating the service can access production systems in order to run and repair them. We look at individual records only where it is necessary to fix a fault or where you ask us to.
We use these companies to run the product. They process data on our instructions and are not permitted to use it for their own purposes:
Some competitors in this category reserve the right to license or sell user data, including in aggregated or de-identified form. We deliberately do not.
If this ever changed, it could only apply to data collected afterwards and only with your explicit, opt-in consent. We would tell you directly rather than by quietly editing this page.
To exercise any of this, or if something is not working, contact us at privacy@getstack.app.
Your records are kept while your account is open, because the product is built on long-run trends and deleting history would defeat it. When you delete your account, the data goes. Technical logs are kept for a short period and then discarded.
Our providers operate infrastructure in several countries, so your data may be processed outside Australia. We only use providers that commit to appropriate safeguards for international transfers.
Data is encrypted in transit and at rest, access is scoped per user at the database level, and device tokens are never exposed to the browser. No service can promise perfect security, and we will not pretend otherwise. If a breach affects you, we will tell you and the relevant regulator as required by Australian law.
Stack is not intended for anyone under 18, and we do not knowingly collect information from children.
Stack is a tracking and reference tool. It does not provide medical advice, diagnosis or treatment, and using it does not create a clinician relationship. Reference ranges shown against your bloodwork are population defaults, not an assessment of you. Always consult a licensed clinician about anything you are taking.
If we change this policy we will update the date above, and we will notify you directly about anything that materially affects how your data is handled.
Questions, requests or complaints: privacy@getstack.app. If you are in Australia and are not satisfied with our response, you may complain to the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner.
