STEW-E Fit Privacy Policy
STEW-E Fit is published by Stewart's Enterprise. Effective November 6, 2026.
What you put in the app
To work, STEW-E Fit stores what you enter:
- Your profile: height, birth date, starting weight, goals and settings, and an optional display name.
- Food: the foods and recipes you save, and what you log each day (amounts, times and nutrition numbers).
- Activity and weight: workouts, physical work, distances, heart-rate numbers you type in, records, weigh-ins and your daily checklist.
This is health and fitness information. We use it only to show you your own numbers, totals, trends and records. STEW-E Fit is for general fitness tracking and is not medical advice.
Your records are saved on your phone first so the app works offline, then uploaded to your account when you have a connection.
Your account
Signing in uses your email address only; there is no password. We store your email address and your sign-in sessions so you stay signed in. We use your email only to send sign-in links and messages about your account, never for marketing unless you ask for it. If you use another Stewart's Enterprise app with the same email, the two apps share the same sign-in but keep their data separate.
Food search, barcodes and recipe links
- Food search: the words you search for are sent to the USDA FoodData Central and Open Food Facts databases to find matching foods. Nothing that identifies you is sent with them.
- Barcode scanning: the camera picture is read on your phone and never stored or sent. Only the barcode number is looked up in Open Food Facts and USDA FoodData Central.
- Shared food list: when you save a food from a nutrition label, a label photo or a barcode, a copy of that food only (its name, brand, barcode, serving size and nutrition numbers) is added to a food list every STEW-E Fit user can search, and searches and barcode scans check that list first. Other users never see who added a food, and nothing about what you eat, your food log, weight or workouts is shared. We keep which account added or reported a food only to handle wrong or abusive entries. Turn it off any time in Settings › Food, activity & Today screen › Share foods I add. Foods already shared stay on the list without your name; deleting your account removes the link to you.
- Recipe links: when you give STEW-E Fit a recipe link, our server opens that page to read the ingredient list. We keep the link and the ingredients you save; we don't copy the directions.
Voice and microphone
STEW-E Fit uses the microphone only when you tap the microphone or Ask STEW-E button.
- Voice uses your phone's built-in speech recognition. Depending on your device and settings, your phone's speech service (for example Google on Android) may process the audio under its own privacy policy. STEW-E Fit receives only the resulting text.
- We do not record, store or upload audio.
Health Connect (Android app)
- The STEW-E Fit Android app can read data from Health Connect, only when you tap Sync from Health Connect and only the kinds you allow on Health Connect's permission screen: workouts (exercise sessions), active and total calories burned, heart rate, distance, steps and weight. These usually come from apps like Garmin Connect, Google Fit or Samsung Health.
- STEW-E Fit reads the last few days (at most 30) and shows them to you first. Only what you choose to add is saved to your STEW-E Fit account, as part of your workouts, steps and weigh-ins, the same way as anything you log by hand.
- We use this data only to show your workouts, calories, heart rate, steps and weight to you in STEW-E Fit. We never sell it, never use it for advertising, never share it with other users (it is not part of the shared food list), and never use it to train AI. STEW-E Fit does not write anything into Health Connect.
- STEW-E Fit's use of information received from Health Connect follows the Health Connect Permissions policy, including its Limited Use requirements.
- You can turn access off, or change which kinds STEW-E Fit can read, any time: Health Connect app › App permissions › STEW-E Fit. Workouts you already added stay in STEW-E Fit until you delete them; deleting your account deletes them.
Feedback and error reports
If you send feedback, we receive your message, the topic you pick, the app version and, if you choose, the screen you were on and your phone and browser type. If the app hits an error, it sends us a short error report with the app version, the screen and your phone and browser type so we can fix it. These are linked to your account so we can follow up.
Who helps us run the app
We use a small number of service providers who process data only to run STEW-E Fit for us: Cloudflare (hosting the app and its server), Supabase (sign-in, sign-in emails and your saved records, stored in the United States), USDA FoodData Central and Open Food Facts (food lookups, as described above), Google Fonts (the app's lettering) and jsDelivr (the barcode-reading code, on some phones). They are not allowed to use your data for their own purposes. Loading the app's lettering and code from these services means they see your internet address, as any website would.
Promotions in the free version
The free version shows a small card promoting Stewart's Enterprise's own brands and apps (such as our store at stew-e.com and Apis Command), plus an "Explore Stewart's Enterprise" list in Settings. These are plain links: there is no advertising network, and nothing about you or your records is shared or tracked to show them. If you tap one, the link tells our store the visit came from STEW-E Fit, and that site's own privacy policy applies there.
Exporting and deleting your data
- Export: Settings › Account, backup & feedback › Backup & export downloads a copy of everything you've saved.
- Erase your records: Settings › Account, backup & feedback › Start over erases your profile, foods and every logged day but keeps your account.
- Delete your account: Settings › Account, backup & feedback › Delete my account permanently deletes your STEW-E Fit account and all its data, including feedback you sent. It can't be undone.
- Without the app: see how to delete your account, or email us from the address you signed in with. We delete the account and its data within 30 days.
What we don't do
- We don't sell or rent personal information, and we never sell or share your health and fitness records. The shared food list holds foods, not anyone's records.
- We don't use advertising networks or analytics trackers. The only promotions are for our own brands, as described above.
- We don't collect your exact location, contacts or phone number.
Age
STEW-E Fit is intended for adults 18 and over. It is not directed to children.
Changes
If we add features that change what we collect, such as paid plans, label photos or connecting fitness watches, we'll update this policy before those features go live and change the effective date above.
