How we collect, use and protect your personal data

Last updated: October 2026

1. Who we are (Data Controller)

Love. Eat. Keep Fit. is a brand name of a meal-planning app and website. The data controller is We Make IT, a sole trader registered in Ireland, with a principal place of business at 32 Millbourne Drive, Ashbourne, Co. Meath, Ireland.

Contact us regarding your personal data at any time: loveeatkeepfitblog@gmail.com

2. What data we collect and why

Account data

When you register we collect your name, email address, and a bcrypt-hashed password. We also record when your email was verified. Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR, performance of a contract.

Calorie calculator

The calorie calculator asks for your age, sex, weight, height, activity level and goal. We treat this as health data under Art. 9 GDPR. The calculation runs on your own device. Your answers are not sent to us or stored when you calculate.

If you are signed in and press Save to my account, we store only the results (daily calorie target and macros), not your measurements. If you save results for someone you plan meals for, we store their first name and their results the same way; please make sure they’re happy for you to. Legal basis: your explicit consent (Art. 9(2)(a) GDPR), given by pressing that button. You can withdraw consent at any time by asking us to delete it or by deleting your account (Account and emails, in the profile menu). This does not affect earlier lawful processing. We are told by email that a named member used the calculator, but that email never contains your answers or results.

Recipe and tips emails (optional)

We only send you recipes, tips or offers by email if you tick the optional box when you create your account. It is never ticked for you, and nothing in the app depends on it. We record when you agreed. Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(a), consent, and Regulation 13 of the ePrivacy Regulations 2011 (S.I. 336/2011). You can unsubscribe at any time, in one click, from the link or your mail app’s unsubscribe button in any of these emails, from Account and emails in the app, or by contacting us. We stop straight away and record when you unsubscribed.

Your own recipes (My recipes)

The recipes you save, with any photos you add. They are kept with your account, only you can see them, and they are deleted when you delete them or your account. Photos are made smaller on your device before they are uploaded, which also removes location data. When you save from a link, we visit that page once to read the recipe’s name and ingredients.

Contact messages

Your name, email address, and message content submitted via the contact form. Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(b) (responding to your enquiry).

Analytics cookies (optional)

With your consent, we use Vercel Analytics and Google Analytics (GA4) to understand how visitors use the site. No personal identifiers are stored. Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(a), consent, given via the cookie banner. You may withdraw consent at any time via the cookie preference link in the footer.

3. Minimum age

This service is directed at adults. In line with Section 31 of the Irish Data Protection Act 2018, you must be at least 16 years old to create an account. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 16.

4. Data processors (third parties)

All third-party providers act as data processors on our instructions. We do not sell your data.
