1. Information We Collect

We collect information you provide directly to us, which is essential for the app's functionality:

• Account Information: When you sign in with Google, we receive your name, email address, and profile picture as provided by Google.
• Profile & Fitness Data: You may provide us with your gender, age, weight, height, fitness goals, and target dates.
• Daily Logs: We store the data you enter daily, including food descriptions, calorie counts, workout details, completed goals, and personal remarks.
• Social Information: We store your friend connections and the "nudges" or remarks you exchange with them.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect solely to provide and improve the functionality of the SynergyFit application. This includes:

• To operate and maintain your SynergyFit account.
• To display your progress, goals, and logs to you.
• To enable social features, such as sharing your progress with friends you have explicitly accepted.
• To use our AI features to estimate calories from the food and workout descriptions you provide.

3. How We Share Your Information

We do not share your personal information with third-party companies for marketing purposes. Your data is shared only in the following circumstances:

• For Legal Reasons: We may share information if we believe disclosure is required by law or legal process.

Your data is stored securely in Firebase, a Google-owned platform, and is protected by industry-standard security measures and our own strict security rules.
