How Vita treats your data

Last updated 31 October 2026

The short version

Vita keeps your journal on your phone. You don't need an account to use it. Vita has no ads and no analytics, and it never sells your data or shares it for advertising.

On your phone

Your profile (name, age, sex, height, weight, goals), your food, water and weight entries and your meal photos are stored only on this device, in the app's own storage.

Uninstalling the app, or Settings → Backup & Restore → Reset everything, removes them. An exported backup is saved only where you choose.

If you make an account

An account is optional; it exists so your AI key can be kept safe. Vita's server then stores your email address, your password as a one-way hash (it can't be read back), your sign-in sessions, your AI provider keys (encrypted) and the order you put your providers in.

Your journal is not stored on the server.

Early access list

If you sign up on the Get Vita first page, Vita's server stores the email you enter, whether you use Android or iPhone, where you came from (for example TikTok) and the date. It's used only to invite you to test Vita and to tell you when it's out.

To be removed, reply to any email from Vita or message @vita.foodjournal on TikTok, and your entry is deleted.

AI features

Photo analysis, Tell Vita and day summaries run on the AI provider you connect yourself (Google Gemini, Anthropic Claude, OpenAI or Groq), with your own key. When you use one, Vita sends that provider only what the feature needs: the photo and details you add, the text you type, or that day's food list.

Vita doesn't keep your photos on its server. The provider's own privacy policy applies to what it receives.

Password reset emails

If you ask to reset your password, Vita emails you a one-time link that stops working after an hour.

Health data

Your food and body data are used only to show you your own targets and progress. They are never used for advertising or data mining, and never sold.

Deleting your data

In the app: Settings → Delete account removes your account and everything the server holds for it, straight away.

Without the app: open the Delete account page on this website and sign in there.

Your on-device journal goes with Reset everything or by uninstalling the app.

Children

Vita is not meant for children under 16.

Changes

If this policy changes, the date at the top changes with it.
