Last Updated: March 26, 2026

Method Nutrition ("we," "us," or "our") operates the website https://www.methodnutrition.health/ (the "Service"). This Privacy Policy informs you of our policies regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of personal data when you use our Service and the choices you have associated with that data.

1. Information Collection and Use

We collect several different types of information for various purposes to provide and improve our Service to you.

A. Personal Data

While using our Service, we may ask you to provide us with certain personally identifiable information that can be used to contact or identify you ("Personal Data"), including but not limited to:

  • Email address
  • First name and last name
  • Physical characteristics (Age, Weight, Height, Activity Level)
  • Nutritional preferences and goals

B. Media and Photo Data

When you use our "Log with a Photo" feature, you upload images of food to our servers. We reserve the right to store and retain these photos indefinitely. These images are used to:

  • Calculate nutritional macros via Artificial Intelligence.
  • Improve our machine learning models and AI accuracy.
  • Enhance the overall functionality of the Service.

C. Usage Data

We may also collect information on how the Service is accessed and used ("Usage Data"). This includes your IP address, browser type, time and date of your visit, and unique device identifiers.

2. Sharing of Data and Third-Party Providers

We do not sell your personal data. However, we share information with specific third-party providers necessary to operate the Service:

Stripe: We use Stripe for payment processing. We do not store or collect your payment card details. That information is provided directly to Stripe, whose use of your personal information is governed by their Privacy Policy.
Instacart: Our Service integrates with Instacart for grocery delivery. When you use the "One-Click Cart" feature, relevant item data is sent to Instacart. Your interactions with Instacart are governed by Instacart’s own Privacy Policy and Terms of Service.
AI Service Providers: We may use third-party AI processors to analyze the photos you upload to provide nutritional data.
TikTok (Advertising): We use the TikTok Business SDK to measure the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns on TikTok. TikTok may collect device identifiers (including the Identifier for Advertisers on iOS), IP address, and in-app events such as registration, purchases, and app launches. This data is used for ad attribution and campaign optimization, and is processed in accordance with TikTok's Privacy Policy.
How to opt out of TikTok tracking: On iOS, you can deny tracking permission when prompted via the App Tracking Transparency dialog. You can also change this at any time in your device settings under Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking. When tracking is denied, TikTok will not receive your device advertising identifier.

3. Data Retention

We will retain your Personal Data only for as long as is necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Policy. We will retain and use your photo uploads to train and improve our proprietary algorithms. If you wish to request the deletion of your account or data, please contact us at the email provided below.

4. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to track the activity on our Service and hold certain information. You can instruct your browser to refuse all cookies, though this may prevent you from using some portions of the Service.

5. Security of Data

The security of your data is important to us, but remember that no method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your Personal Data, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

6. Children's Privacy

Our Service does not address anyone under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children.

7. Governing Law

This Privacy Policy and your use of the Service are governed by the laws of the State of Florida, United States, without regard to its conflict of law provisions.

8. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the "Last Updated" date at the top.
