Our terms, policies, and commitments to you. Please read these documents carefully before using Daily Protein Log.
Welcome to Daily Protein Log ("the App," "the Service," "we," "us," or "our"), accessible at dailyproteinlog.com and through our mobile application. These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the Service. By creating an account or using the App, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use the Service.
You must be at least 13 years of age to create an account and use Daily Protein Log. If you are under 18, you represent that your parent or legal guardian has reviewed and consented to these Terms on your behalf.
By using the Service, you represent and warrant that you are at least 13 years old. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we discover that a user is under 13, we will promptly delete their account and all associated data. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child under 13 has provided us with personal information, please contact us at [email protected].
Users between the ages of 13 and 17 ("Minor Users") may use the Service with consent from a parent or legal guardian. Minor Users will experience age-appropriate content that emphasizes balanced nutrition and healthy eating habits. The Service does not promote restrictive dieting, extreme caloric reduction, or weight-loss strategies for Minor Users.
To use certain features of the Service, you must create an account. You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information during registration, maintain the security of your password and account, accept responsibility for all activities that occur under your account, and notify us immediately of any unauthorized use.
We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your account if any information provided is found to be inaccurate, incomplete, or violates these Terms.
Daily Protein Log is a nutrition tracking application that uses artificial intelligence (Google Gemini Flash 2.5) to analyze photographs of food and estimate nutritional content, including protein, calories, carbohydrates, fat, fiber, and other macronutrients and micronutrients. The Service also provides personalized daily goal tracking and setting, daily food logging with photo storage, statistical dashboards (daily, weekly, monthly, yearly), AI-generated dietary analysis and recommendations, and smart food recommendations based on daily intake.
All nutritional estimates provided by the Service are AI-generated approximations and should not be treated as exact measurements. Actual nutritional values may vary based on preparation method, exact portion sizes, specific brands, and other factors not visible in a photograph.
We strive for accuracy by referencing established nutritional databases (including USDA FoodData Central), but we make no warranty or guarantee regarding the precision of any estimate. Users with specific dietary needs (e.g., medical conditions, allergies, diabetes management) should consult a licensed healthcare professional or registered dietitian rather than relying solely on the Service.
The Service is designed for general informational and wellness purposes only. It is not a medical device, medical service, or substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. The AI recommendations provided (including "what to eat" and "what to avoid" suggestions) are general wellness guidance, not medical nutrition therapy.
You should always consult with a qualified healthcare provider before making significant changes to your diet, particularly if you have existing health conditions, are pregnant or nursing, or are managing a medical condition that requires dietary supervision. Never disregard professional medical advice or delay seeking it because of information provided by this Service.
When you submit photographs through the Service ("User Content"), you retain ownership of your photos. You grant us a limited, non-exclusive license to process, analyze, and store your photos solely for the purpose of providing the Service to you. We do not use your food photos for advertising, marketing to third parties, or any purpose beyond service delivery and improvement.
You represent that you have the right to submit any content you provide, and that your content does not violate the rights of any third party.
You agree not to use the Service to submit content that is illegal, harmful, threatening, abusive, or otherwise objectionable, attempt to reverse-engineer, decompile, or extract source code from the App, interfere with the Service's infrastructure or other users' access, use the Service for any purpose other than personal nutrition tracking, create multiple accounts or misrepresent your identity, or scrape, crawl, or otherwise extract data from the Service.
All content, features, functionality, design, code, and branding of Daily Protein Log — including logos, icons, text, graphics, and software — are the exclusive property of Daily Protein Log and are protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws. You may not copy, modify, distribute, sell, or lease any part of the Service without our prior written consent.
The Service integrates with third-party APIs (including Google Generative AI / Gemini). Your use of these features is additionally governed by the respective third-party terms. We are not responsible for the availability, accuracy, or policies of third-party services.
Certain features of the Service may be offered as part of a paid subscription. If applicable, subscription terms, pricing, and billing cycles will be clearly presented before purchase. Subscriptions auto-renew unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current billing period. Refunds are handled in accordance with Apple App Store policies.
You may delete your account at any time through the App settings. Upon deletion, we will remove your personal data in accordance with our Privacy Policy. We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your account at our discretion, with or without notice, for conduct that violates these Terms or is harmful to other users or the Service.
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Daily Protein Log and its officers, directors, employees, and agents shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including but not limited to loss of profits, data, health outcomes, or goodwill, arising out of or related to your use of the Service.
Our total liability for any claim arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service shall not exceed the amount you have paid us in the 12 months preceding the claim, or $100, whichever is greater.
The Service is provided "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" without warranties of any kind, either express or implied, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or completely accurate.
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Daily Protein Log from any claims, liabilities, damages, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from your use of the Service, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of any rights of a third party.
These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas, United States, without regard to conflict of law principles. Any disputes arising under these Terms shall be resolved through binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) in Houston, Texas. You agree to waive your right to a jury trial and to participate in any class action.
We may update these Terms from time to time. When we make material changes, we will notify you via in-app notification or email at least 30 days before the changes take effect. Your continued use of the Service after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.

Daily Protein Log ("we," "us," "our") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and share your information when you use our mobile application and website at dailyproteinlog.com.
Information You Provide: Account registration data (email address, name), onboarding profile data (age, weight, height, biological sex, fitness goal, activity level), daily protein and calorie goal preferences, and food photographs you submit for analysis.
Information Generated by the Service: AI-generated nutritional estimates from your food photos, daily food log entries and aggregated statistics, AI-generated dietary analysis reports, and app usage data (features used, session duration).
Information Collected Automatically: Device information (model, operating system, app version), IP address (for security and abuse prevention), crash reports and performance diagnostics, and general location (country/region level, not precise GPS).
We use your information to provide and improve the nutrition tracking Service, generate AI-powered nutritional estimates and recommendations, compute and display your statistics and progress, communicate with you about your account and Service updates, ensure security and prevent fraud, and comply with legal obligations.
When you submit a food photo, it is sent to our backend server, which forwards it to the Google Gemini API for analysis. The photo is processed in real-time and the AI response is returned to you. Photos are stored on our servers to populate your food log. Photos are not used to train AI models. Photos are not shared with third parties beyond the AI analysis provider. You may delete individual entries (including photos) at any time.
We do not sell your personal information. We share data only with service providers necessary to operate the App (e.g., Google for AI analysis, hosting providers), when required by law, court order, or governmental regulation, and to protect the rights, safety, or property of Daily Protein Log or its users.
We retain your data for as long as your account is active. When you delete your account, we delete your personal data within 30 days, except where retention is required by law. Aggregated, anonymized data that cannot identify you may be retained indefinitely for analytics and service improvement.
We implement industry-standard security measures including encryption in transit (TLS 1.2+), encrypted storage for sensitive data, secure API key management, and regular security assessments. No system is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security but are committed to protecting your data using commercially reasonable measures.
Daily Protein Log is not intended for children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 years of age. If you believe a child under 13 has created an account, please contact us immediately at [email protected].

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to access, correct, or delete your personal data, request a portable copy of your data, opt out of certain data processing, and withdraw consent at any time. To exercise these rights, contact us at [email protected]. We will respond within 30 days.

Daily Protein Log is a wellness and informational tool. It is NOT a medical device, and its outputs should NOT be used as a substitute for professional medical or nutritional advice.
All protein, calorie, and macronutrient values displayed in the App are AI-generated estimates based on visual analysis of food photographs. These estimates are approximations and may vary from actual nutritional values by 10% to 25% or more depending on food type, preparation method, and portion accuracy. We reference USDA FoodData Central and established nutritional science, but cannot guarantee exact accuracy for any individual food item.
The dietary recommendations, meal suggestions, and "what to eat/avoid" guidance provided by our AI are general wellness suggestions based on your logged food data and stated goals. They are not personalized medical nutrition therapy, not a substitute for consultation with a registered dietitian, not designed to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease, and not appropriate as the sole basis for dietary decisions related to medical conditions.
You should consult a qualified healthcare provider if you have diabetes, kidney disease, eating disorders, or any condition requiring dietary management, if you are pregnant, nursing, or planning to become pregnant, if you are taking medications that interact with specific foods or nutrients, if you experience adverse health effects related to dietary changes, or if you are under 18 and using the App for significant dietary modifications.
Daily Protein Log is designed to promote balanced, sustainable nutrition habits. We encourage users to focus on overall dietary patterns rather than obsessing over individual numbers, use the App as one tool among many for health awareness, maintain a positive relationship with food and eating, and reach out to a healthcare professional if you notice signs of disordered eating or unhealthy preoccupation with food tracking.
The AI analysis may not detect all ingredients in a food item, particularly in mixed or processed foods. Users with food allergies or intolerances should not rely on the App to identify allergens. Always verify ingredients independently if you have a food allergy.
By using Daily Protein Log, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this disclaimer and agree that the Service is used at your own risk.
