What PepMetrics Stores

PepMetrics stores the account, protocol, dose log, nutrition, weight, and optional imported health data that users choose to enter. The app is built as a tracking tool and does not need data that is unrelated to those workflows.

How Data Is Used

User data is used to render dashboards, calendars, reminders, calculator-derived tracking details, and optional app explanations. PepMetrics does not sell personal health data.

Health And AI Research

PepMetrics may summarize published sources and public community discussions, explain calculator math, and summarize logged data. This educational research is not a personalized prescription, diagnosis, or substitute for care from a licensed clinician.

AI Processing

When a signed-in user submits an AI Guide or Pip message, PepMetrics sends the message, recent conversation, and a read-only snapshot of relevant saved protocols, doses, meals, nutrition, water, weight, check-ins, and symptoms to OpenRouter for processing by the AI Guide. Pip, the app's pop-out assistant, uses the same account context. When Pip is used on Calculator, messages also include the calculator values shown on screen at that moment, even when they are not saved. The Pip panel shows which information it can use. The AI Guide cannot add, edit, or delete account records. The final response request requires a zero-data-retention provider endpoint and denies provider data collection or training. PepMetrics sends this account context only after the user chooses to submit an AI Guide or Pip request.

When automatic public research is useful, PepMetrics runs a separate search request built from a sanitized compound subject and controlled topic labels. Public search does not receive the user's original question or automatically attached account records. OpenRouter's zero-data-retention setting does not cover the web-search tool, which is why that separation is enforced. PepMetrics then gives the AI Guide bounded research excerpts and source identifiers in the separate final response request, where it can connect public findings with the user's private account snapshot. Verified source URLs are kept outside the model prompt and shown separately by PepMetrics. If research is unavailable, the AI Guide may still answer from the message and account context. No fallback model is used. PepMetrics controls this data separation and privacy boundary; the underlying AI forms the answer using its own judgment.

After a reply completes, completed AI Guide conversations are saved to your PepMetrics account so they remain available after switching pages, refreshing, or closing the app. Selecting Clear Chat removes the saved conversation. Signing out removes the local copy from that device without deleting the account copy.

User Control

Settings lets you export the tracking data stored on your current device. Signing out removes your account's locally cached tracking data from that device; if recent changes have not synced yet, you are warned before they are removed. To request a copy or deletion of signed-in account data, email support@pepmetrics.com from the address on your account so the request can be verified before any data is released or removed.
