1. Who we are
Joshua Gibson ("DoPoint," "we," "us") operates the DoPoint mobile application. This policy explains what we collect, why, and what control you have over it.
2. What we collect
Account information: name, email address.
Profile information you provide at onboarding: height, weight (start/current/goal), age, biological sex (including "prefer not to say"), activity level, primary goal type, chronotype, tone preference, and any emotional-eating triggers you choose to flag.
Note on biological sex: if you select "prefer not to say," we store that choice as-is. For internal calculations that require a sex input (such as estimating energy needs), we default to a male baseline as a conservative assumption — this resolved value is never shown back to you, and your original "prefer not to say" choice is always what's on record.
Data you log: meals, snacks, exercise entries, weight entries, journal entries, and chat conversations with the in-app assistant.
Health and wearable data, if you connect a device or platform: heart rate, heart rate variability, sleep data, activity/steps, and (if applicable) glucose trends, read from Apple Health, Google Health Connect, or a directly connected wearable (e.g., Fitbit). We only request the specific data types needed to generate your forecast, and only with your explicit permission.
Usage data: how you interact with the App, for the purpose of improving it (e.g., crash reports, feature usage).
We do not collect: payment card information (handled entirely by Apple/Google), or precise location data.
3. How we use it
To generate your daily forecast and the "why" reasoning behind it; to power in-app chat, including passing relevant context (your name, tone preference, flagged triggers, recent logs, current forecast) to our AI provider so responses are personalized; to show you your own progress and trends; to send notifications you've opted into; to improve the accuracy of the forecasting system over time; to provide customer support; and to meet legal obligations.
We do not sell your data. We do not use your health data for advertising, and DoPoint does not display third-party ads.
4. Who we share it with
Service providers who process data on our behalf under contract, including our cloud hosting/database provider, our AI provider (for chat and forecasting), a crash-reporting/error-monitoring provider (technical diagnostic data only — device/app error details, never your logged food, weight, or journal content), and Apple/Google (for subscription billing and, if connected, health data access). These providers are contractually restricted from using your data for their own purposes.
Legal requirements — if required by law, subpoena, or to protect against fraud or harm.
Business transfers — if DoPoint is acquired or merges with another company, your data may transfer as part of that transaction, subject to this policy or a comparable one.
We do not share your data with advertisers, data brokers, or unrelated third parties.
5. AI processing
When you use DoPoint's chat feature, your message and relevant context (as described in §3) are sent to a third-party AI service to generate a response. This exchange is processed to serve your request and is not used to build a public-facing profile of you outside the App.
For certain health or nutrition questions, the AI may include a link to a third-party informational resource (for example, a government or medical-institution website) rather than calculate a personalized answer. No data about you is sent to that third-party site as part of generating the link — but if you choose to open it, your interaction with that site is governed by its own privacy policy, not this one.
6. Your rights and choices
Access and correction: you can view and edit your profile information in-app at any time.
Deletion: you can delete your account in Settings. This removes your profile, logs, journal entries, and chat history from our active systems, subject to any data we're legally required to retain (e.g., transaction records).
Wearable disconnection: you can revoke health-data access at any time through your device's settings or within the App; this stops future data collection but does not automatically delete data already collected — use account deletion for that.
Notifications: manageable in Settings, including an evening check-in reminder that fires only on a day with no log or mood entry at all.
Chat history: you can clear your conversation with the in-app assistant at any time from the chat screen. This removes chat history only — it does not affect your logs, weigh-ins, or profile.
Data export: you can export a complete copy of your data (profile, logs, journal entries, weigh-ins, and forecast history) at any time from Settings → "Export my data," produced entirely on your device as a JSON file.
7. Data retention
We retain your data for as long as your account is active. If you delete your account, we delete your personal data within a reasonable timeframe, except where retention is required by law.
8. Data security
We use industry-standard measures to protect your data, including encryption in transit and at rest. No system is perfectly secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
9. Children's privacy
DoPoint is not intended for anyone under 13. We do not knowingly collect data from children under 13. If we become aware that we have, we will delete it promptly. Parents who believe their child has provided us data should contact us at GetDoPoint@gmail.com.
10. Sensitive nature of health data
We recognize that eating patterns, weight, and emotional-trigger data are sensitive. We do not use this data to make employment, insurance, credit, or similar consequential decisions, and we do not share it with entities that would.
11. Your state's privacy rights
Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights under state law (e.g., California's CCPA/CPRA, and similar laws in other states) — including the right to know what's collected, request deletion, and opt out of certain data uses.
12. International users
DoPoint is offered in most countries, with certain countries or regions excluded at our discretion — see the App Store or Google Play listing in your region for current availability. If you are located in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, your data (including chat messages, as described in §5) may be transferred to and processed in the United States or other countries where our service providers operate. By using the App from one of these regions, you acknowledge this transfer; you also retain the rights described in this policy, plus any additional rights under your local law (for example, the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority).
13. Changes to this policy
We'll notify you in-app of material changes before they take effect.
