Last Updated: August 31, 2026
At Proof ("Proof," "we," "our," or "us"), we respect your privacy and are committed to protecting any personal information you provide while using our mobile application, Proof - Macro Counter, and our related website and services (together, the "Services"). Proof is a calorie and macro tracker. We understand the sensitive nature of nutrition-related information, and we are committed to keeping your information secure.
1. Information We Collect
We may collect:
- Account and profile information: name, email address, and contact details (if provided). If you choose to complete your profile, we may also collect age, height, weight, and similar details you enter.
- Nutrition goals: calorie, protein, carbohydrate, and fat targets you set in the app.
- Food and drink entries: foods you log (including by photo, search, or barcode), serving sizes, and estimated calories, protein, carbs, and fat.
- Food photos or labels (optional): photos you take or upload so we can estimate food volume and nutrition. When available, your device may provide depth information used to estimate portion size. When you use the food scan feature, the photo is sent to our servers and to OpenAI, Inc. for analysis—see Section 4 (Third-Party AI Service – OpenAI) for details.
- Barcode scans: barcode data you scan to look up packaged foods in nutrition databases.
- Water and activity logs: water intake and exercise or activity you log in the app.
- Progress tracking data: nutrition history, weight, measurements you enter, and progress toward your goals. You may also upload progress photos if you choose to.
- Apple Health data (optional): if you connect Apple Health, we may read step count and active energy (calories burned) from Apple Health, and we may write water intake to Apple Health, only with your permission. See the Apple Health section below.
- Usage data: information about how you use our mobile app, features, and tools.
- Device information: device type, operating system, and app version for technical support.

We do not collect, store, or process medical records. When you use AI-powered features, your data may be shared with third-party AI providers for processing - please see the AI Provider Disclaimer section below for more details. Calorie counts, macro breakdowns, and food identifications are estimates and may be incomplete or inaccurate.

Third-Party AI Service – OpenAI
When you use the food scan feature (photo-based food identification), we use an AI service provided by OpenAI, Inc. (“OpenAI”) to analyze your photo and estimate calories, protein, carbs, and fat. We disclose the following as required:
- What data we send: The food photo you take or upload is sent to our servers and then to OpenAI. We may also send a non-identifying request identifier for rate limiting. We do not send your name, email, or account ID to OpenAI.
- Who we send it to: OpenAI, Inc. You can review their privacy policy at https://openai.com/policies/privacy-policy.
- How we collect it: The photo is collected when you use the “Scan” or “Upload” option in the app and submit an image for nutrition analysis.
- How we use it: The image is used solely to identify the food and portion in the photo and to return estimated calories and macros to you. We do not use your photos for marketing or training our own models.
- Your permission: We ask for your permission in the app before sending any photo to our AI-powered scan feature for the first time. You can decline and use other features (e.g. manual search, barcode scan, or manual entry) instead.
