Delete your data

In short

You can delete your Good Gut Eats account and its data yourself, inside the app, at any time. Or email us and we will do it for you. Deleting is permanent and cannot be undone.

Delete in the app

1. Open Good Gut Eats and sign in.
2. Go to the Profile screen.
3. Under Account & Privacy, tap Delete Account.
4. Tap Delete Account to confirm.
5. Tap Yes, Delete My Account to confirm a second time.

The app deletes your account right away and signs you out.

Delete by email

If you cannot open the app, email [email protected] from the email address on your account and ask us to delete it. We will delete it within 24 hours and reply to confirm. If we cannot match the email to an account, we will ask you to confirm which account is yours before deleting anything.

What is deleted

• Your sign-in record and your profile.
• Everything you logged: food logs, symptom and bowel movement logs, daily check-ins and your own check-in goals, supplements, and saved meals.
• Your preferences: diets, restrictions, ingredient and recipe preferences, default swaps and variants.
• Your recipe activity: favorites, views, cooks, drafts, and recipes you imported, along with every recipe photo you uploaded.
• Your pantry and shopping list.
• Patterns computed from your logs, and your food reintroduction test results.
• The records of your chat messages and AI parses, your product analytics events, and the problem reports you sent us.
• Any Apple Health totals imported by an earlier version of the app.
• If you signed in with Apple, we also ask Apple to revoke the sign-in link between your Apple ID and Good Gut Eats when we hold the sign-in token Apple gave us. You can always remove it yourself in your Apple ID settings.

What is kept

• Server backups roll over every 7 days, so a deleted account leaves the backups within 7 days.
• Anonymized totals across the whole app, such as how many times recipes were cooked, with no link back to you.
• Automatic crash reports, which never carry an account id.
• Our internal error logs may hold the random account id of a deleted account. Once the account is gone, that id no longer points to you or to any of your data.

Social sign-in and social platforms

The same deletion covers everything that came from a social sign-in. If you signed in with Apple or Google, your name and email from that sign-in are deleted with your account. Your Apple or Google account itself is not affected: you can also remove Good Gut Eats from the apps connected to it in your Apple ID or Google account settings.

Good Gut Eats posts on TikTok, Pinterest, YouTube, Instagram, and Facebook. The app does not offer sign-in with those platforms and does not import data from your accounts there. Comments and messages you leave on our posts are held by that platform under its own policies, and you can delete them there. If you want us to delete anything about you that we hold from one of those platforms, email [email protected] and we will delete it within 24 hours on the same terms as above.
