4. Third-Party Services

MacroM8 relies on the following third-party services:

5. Data Storage and Security

Your data is stored in a PostgreSQL database hosted by Supabase in the ap-southeast-2 (Sydney, Australia) region. Profile photos are stored in Supabase Storage.

We protect your data with:

  • Encryption in transit (TLS/HTTPS)
  • Encryption at rest (database-level encryption)
  • Row-level security policies on database tables
  • Secure authentication via Supabase Auth (bcrypt password hashing)

6. Data Retention

We retain your data for as long as your account is active. If you delete your account, we will remove your personal data within 30 days, except where retention is required by law (e.g., financial transaction records).

Custom foods are soft-deleted (marked as removed but retained for referential integrity with past meal records). They are not visible or accessible to you after deletion.
