RAPHAEL

Privacy Policy

Effective October 22, 2026 · Operated by raphael.fit

This page explains what raphael.fit collects, why, and where it goes. You can browse the site without signing in.

What we collect

• Account (Google sign-in). When you sign in with Google, we receive your name, email, profile photo and a user ID through Google Firebase Authentication. While you are signed in, we store your name, email, profile photo, and when you were first and last seen.
• Food photos. When you snap a meal, the photo is sent to Google's Gemini API to get an estimate. We keep the result (food names, calories, macros and micronutrients, with a time) and a small preview of the photo in your log for 40 days. If you try one scan before signing in, the photo and result are not saved on our side unless you sign in to save it.
• Nutrition target. If you personalize your target, we store your targets and the details you enter (for example weight, height, age, sex, activity level, goal, and optional body measurements and body fat estimate).
• Game scores. Your best score per game. If you reach the top 20, your first name, Google profile photo and score appear on the public ranking.
• Strava (only if you connect it). Access tokens and your Strava athlete ID and first name, plus recent workout summaries (type, name, time, duration, distance, calories, average heart rate). You can disconnect at any time.
• Usage counter. How many photos you checked today, to apply the daily limit.

Why

To run the features you use: your food log, targets, workout sync, rankings and daily limits. We do not use your data for ads, and we do not sell your data.

We may also review your log and targets to follow up with you personally about your progress, and share relevant offers, such as our supplements. You can ask us to stop at any time.

Where it is stored and who processes it

• Google Firebase: sign-in.
• Cloudflare: our server and database (Workers and KV), which hold the data listed above.
• Google Gemini API: reads food photos to make the estimate. We currently use Gemini's free tier. Under Google's Gemini API terms, for free use Google uses submitted content and responses to provide, improve and develop its products and machine learning technologies, and human reviewers may read and annotate inputs and outputs (after Google disconnects them from the account). Please don't photograph anything other than your food.
• Strava: only if you connect it.
• Website hosting: our host and Cloudflare may process technical data such as IP address to deliver the site.

How long we keep it

• Food log entries and their photo previews: deleted automatically after 40 days.
• Progress photos: until you delete them or reset the folder.
• Daily photo counter: about 2 days. Recent workout list: about 10 minutes (cache).
• Targets, profile details, scores and Strava connection: until you ask us to delete them, or disconnect Strava.

On your device

We use your browser's local storage to remember that you signed in, your nutrition target and your music on/off choice. Firebase keeps you signed in on this device. We do not use analytics or advertising trackers.

Contact links

The message buttons open Instagram, Facebook Messenger or your phone's SMS app. Those messages are handled by those services under their own policies.

Delete your data

Text (904) 685-1041 or message @errelopes on Instagram and ask us to delete your account data. To disconnect Strava, use Disconnect in your dashboard. You can also sign out at any time.

Age

This site's account features are for people 18 and older.

Progress photos, before/after and how we use your data

Progress Gallery. If you use the Progress Gallery, we store the photos you upload and the date you give each one. They are stored on Cloudflare (our hosting provider). To open the folder you must be signed in and enter a PIN you choose. We keep only a salted hash of the PIN, never the PIN itself. You can delete any photo at any time. If you forget your PIN, resetting the folder deletes all its photos. Raphael (raphael.fit) can access the photos in your Progress Gallery to support your coaching and review your progress. Your photos are only published (for example, before/after content) with your explicit approval for each case.

AI progress check. Your Progress Gallery photos are analyzed by AI (Google Gemini) only when you ask for a comparison, and only the 2 photos you pick.

Before/after in promotional material. We never use your photos without your permission. When your folder has photos that could show a before/after (for example, two photos 30 or more days apart), we ask you: "Can we use this before/after in promotional material?" Only if you tap Yes do we record your permission, with the date and time. If you tap No, or don't answer, we don't use them. You can revoke your permission at any time in the Progress photos section. If you revoke it, or delete one of the photos, we stop using that before/after in new material.

Food photos. Food photos are sent to Google's Gemini API to estimate nutrition. We keep the result and a small preview of the photo in your log for 40 days.

How we use your profile to suggest products and sessions. The site owner can see an admin view with: your name, email, when you were last seen, the interests you chose, your good days, your protein target and how many recent days you were below it, and whether you gave before/after permission. We use this to suggest products (such as supplements from our store) or coaching sessions that may fit your goals, for example when you are often below your protein target. We do not sell your data. Only the site owner's account can open this view.

Your choices. You can change your interests, revoke before/after permission, delete progress photos, export your data, or ask us to delete your account and data at any time.

Changes

We may update this policy. We will change the date at the top when we do.
