Privacy Policy
Meal Timing, by Ahorita Studio · Effective November 13, 2026
This policy explains what the Meal Timing app ("the app") collects, how it's used, and your choices. In short: almost everything stays on your phone, we don't sell your data or use it for advertising, and calendar data is used only to plan your meals.
Data stored on your device
Your goals, height, weight, age and sex, activity level, wake-up and bedtimes, meal logs, saved meals and recipes, meal photos, weigh-ins, allergy and diet settings are stored only on your device. We don't have a copy. Deleting the app, or using Start over in Settings, removes them.
Calendar data
To recommend meal times, the app reads the titles and start and end times of your calendar events. Access is read-only; the app never creates, changes or deletes events.
- Apple Calendar: events are read on your device through iOS, with your permission.
- Google Calendar: if you connect a Google account, see the next section.
Calendar data isn't uploaded to us, with one exception: if you ask for a custom recipe recommendation for a meal, the title of the event next to that meal may be included in the request (see below).
Google user data
If you choose to connect Google Calendar, the app asks Google for permission to:
- see the list of calendars in your account (
calendar.calendarlist.readonly), to know which calendars you've turned on; - view events on those calendars (
calendar.events.readonly): titles, start and end times, whether an event is marked free or busy, and whether you declined it; - see your Google account's email address (
openid,email), to show which account is connected.
How we use it: only to find the times you're busy and plan meals around them, and to show which account is connected. Events marked free, all-day events and events you declined are ignored.
Where it goes: the app talks to Google directly from your device. Google data isn't sent to Ahorita Studio's servers and isn't stored by us. Sign-in tokens are kept in your device's Keychain. Event titles and times are held in the app's memory while you use it and aren't saved; if you change an event's intensity, only that event's ID and your choice are saved on your device.
Sharing: we don't sell, rent or share Google user data, don't use it for advertising, and don't use it to train AI or machine-learning models. The only time any of it leaves your device is the case described under "Custom recommendations" below, and only when you ask for one.
Removing access: tap Disconnect in Settings → Calendar, which also revokes the app's access on Google's side. You can also remove access at any time at myaccount.google.com/permissions.
Meal Timing's use and transfer of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
Custom recommendations and photo estimates
These optional features use AI from our service provider, Anthropic. When you use them, the following is sent through our server to Anthropic to generate the reply:
- Custom recommendations: that meal's calorie and macro targets and time, the effort level, ingredients and instructions you type, your allergies and diet setting, and possibly the title of the nearby calendar event.
- Photo estimates: the photo you choose.
Our server passes requests on without storing their content. Anthropic processes them under its commercial terms and privacy policy, and doesn't use them to train its models.
Data our server handles
To prevent abuse, our server counts requests per day using a random ID created by the app (not linked to your name, email or Apple ID) and your IP address. These counts reset daily and aren't used for anything else. Our hosting provider, Cloudflare, may keep standard request logs.
Notifications
Meal reminders are scheduled on your device. No data is sent to us to deliver them.
Children
The app is for adults 18 and older and isn't directed at children.
Changes
If we change this policy, we'll update the date above, and the app will ask you to review important changes.
