PURPOSE

AI and data

AI only when you request it

Here is what leaves your device when you scan a meal, ask PURPOSE or look up a barcode.

Meal analysis

Google Gemini may be used.

Can send
Your meal description or a smaller copy of your selected photo and notes, after you choose Analyze.
Not automatically included
Your reflections, progress photos and Ask PURPOSE conversations.

Ask PURPOSE

Google Gemini or OpenAI may be used.

Can send
Your message, the nutrition details you allow, recent messages and, with Personalization on, relevant saved memories.
Not automatically included
Your reflections, meal photos and progress photos.

Barcode lookup

Open Food Facts may be used.

Can send
The scanned barcode.
Not automatically included
Photos, journal entries, reflections, and Ask PURPOSE messages.

Choose what you share

Personalization starts off. Turn it on in Settings to include a compact summary of your goal and recent progress, share relevant saved memories, and let Ask PURPOSE learn from what you tell it. You can turn it off at any time. Reflections and photos are excluded from this context. Anything you type in a question is sent with it.

Ask PURPOSE conversations are temporary and clear when you leave Ask PURPOSE or switch away from the app. Saved saved memories and preferences are separate. Memories and their supporting statements expire seven days after you state them, or you can delete them sooner.

Today’s totals, Next Step, reports and nutrition-label reading work on your device without AI. Subscription checks use internet separately.

These services may keep information from your requests under their service terms. Read the Privacy Policy for details and your choices.
