Saturday: Pro Fuel & Hydration App (by Saturday Inc.) — Last updated March 2026
Our Commitment to Your Privacy
Saturday Inc. ("Saturday," "we," "us," or "our") builds the Saturday: Pro Fuel & Hydration app to help athletes fuel and hydrate better. We collect personal data so we can improve the prescription of fuel and hydration recommendations to you as an individual user. Every piece of data we collect serves that purpose.
We do not sell your data. We do not serve ads. We do not share your data with advertisers. We do not collect advertising identifiers. We exist to help you perform better, and your data stays in service of that goal.
This Privacy Policy explains what we collect, why we collect it, who processes it on our behalf, and what rights you have. If you also use our website (saturday.fit), please see our Website Privacy Policy. If you are a Washington State resident or the app processes your health data, please also see our Health Data Privacy Policy.

What We Collect and Why
We collect data to personalize your nutrition, fuel, and hydration recommendations. Here is a complete accounting of what we collect.
Identity & Account Data
We collect your email address, display name, Firebase UID, and authentication method (Google Sign-In, Apple Sign-In, or email/password) so we can create and secure your account, communicate with you, and sync your data across devices.
Health & Biometric Data
We collect health and biometric data so we can calculate personalized fuel, hydration, and electrolyte recommendations tailored to your body and activity level. This includes:
- Body data: weight, sex, year of birth
- Sweat profile: sweat level, saltiness
- Fueling profile: eating disorder flag, weight loss preference, fitness level, satiety, cravings, carb intake range, usual carb consumption
- Fueling concerns: gut distress, cramps, faintness, heat tolerance, hunger, thirst, drinking resistance, performance concerns
- Sport-specific: swim PR (used for intensity estimation)
Activity Data
We collect data about your athletic activities so we can provide real-time and post-activity fueling analysis. This includes: activity type, duration, intensity, thermal stress, nutrition consumed during activity, notes, and ratings.
Device & Technical Data
We collect app version, operating system version, crash data, and analytics events so we can fix bugs, monitor app stability, and improve the experience for all users.
Location Data (Transient Only)
When you record an activity, we send your GPS coordinates to OpenWeatherMap to retrieve weather data for sweat rate calculations. Your location is used transiently for this API call and is not stored in our database.
Third-Party Sync Data
If you connect a third-party platform, we receive data from that service to provide integrated fueling recommendations:
- TrainingPeaks: profile data (name, email, weight, sex, birth month) and workout data (user-initiated OAuth connection)
- Intervals.icu: workout data (user-initiated OAuth connection)
What We Do NOT Collect
For clarity and transparency:
- We do not collect or store credit card numbers (payments are handled entirely by Apple, Google, or Stripe)
- We do not store your location in our database (GPS is used transiently for weather only)
- We do not collect or store advertising identifiers
- We do not sell data to any third party
- We do not share data with advertisers
- We do not serve ads of any kind
Third-Party Services
We use the following third-party services to operate and improve the app. Each service receives only the data it needs to perform its function.
Firebase / Google Cloud (Google LLC)
- Firebase Authentication: manages your sign-in credentials and account security
- Cloud Firestore: stores your profile, activities, and preferences
- Firebase Analytics: collects anonymized usage patterns so we can understand how people use the app and what to improve
- Firebase Crashlytics: collects crash reports so we can identify and fix bugs quickly
- Firebase Performance Monitoring: measures app speed and responsiveness
Privacy policy: firebase.google.com/support/privacy
Klaviyo (Klaviyo, Inc.)
We use Klaviyo for email communications including onboarding, tips, and product updates. Klaviyo receives your name, email, sex, sports, fitness level, seriousness, and subscription status so we can send relevant, personalized messages. You can unsubscribe from any email at any time.
Privacy policy: klaviyo.com/legal/privacy-notice
Stripe (Stripe, Inc.)
Stripe processes payments for web-based purchases. We send Stripe your email address to create a checkout session. Stripe handles all credit card data directly — we never see or store your card number.
Privacy policy: stripe.com/privacy
Apple App Store & Google Play Store
In-app subscriptions are managed entirely by Apple and Google. We receive purchase confirmation receipts but do not have access to your payment method details.
Google / Apple Sign-In
If you choose to sign in with Google or Apple, the authentication provider shares your name and email with us to create your account. Apple Sign-In allows you to hide your email address.
TrainingPeaks (Peaksware, LLC)
If you choose to connect TrainingPeaks, we exchange workout and nutrition data bidirectionally so you can see fueling recommendations alongside your training plan. This connection is user-initiated via OAuth and can be disconnected at any time.
Privacy policy: trainingpeaks.com/privacy-policy
Intervals.icu
If you choose to connect Intervals.icu, we exchange workout and nutrition data bidirectionally. This connection is user-initiated via OAuth and can be disconnected at any time.
Privacy policy: intervals.icu/privacy.html
OpenWeatherMap (OpenWeather Ltd)
We send your GPS coordinates to OpenWeatherMap at the time of activity to retrieve temperature, humidity, and weather conditions for sweat rate calculations. Your coordinates are sent transiently and are not stored by us.
Privacy policy: openweather.co.uk/privacy-policy
Open Food Facts
When you scan a product barcode, we query the Open Food Facts database to look up nutrition information. Open Food Facts receives the barcode only.
Privacy policy: world.openfoodfacts.org/privacy
Google Gemini AI (Google LLC)
When you photograph a nutrition label, we send the photo and relevant user context to Google's Gemini AI to extract text and nutrition data. This enables you to quickly log nutrition from product packaging.
Privacy policy: Google Gemini API Privacy Notice
Legal Basis for Processing (GDPR)
We process your personal data under the following legal bases:
- Contract performance: Processing your account, activity, and health data is necessary to provide the fueling and hydration service you signed up for.
- Consent: Health/biometric data processing and email marketing are based on your explicit consent, which you can withdraw at any time.
- Legitimate interest: Analytics, crash reporting, and performance monitoring help us maintain and improve the service for all users.
- Legal obligation: We retain purchase records as required by tax and accounting law.
Automated Decision-Making
The app uses algorithms to generate personalized nutrition, fuel, and hydration recommendations based on your profile data, activity data, and environmental conditions. These recommendations are the core purpose of the service. They are not used to make decisions that produce legal effects or similarly significant effects on you. You can always override or ignore any recommendation, and you can contact us if you have questions about how your recommendations are calculated.
Data Retention
We retain your data for specific periods based on necessity and legal requirements:
- Account & profile data: retained for the duration of your account, plus 30 days after account deletion
- Activity data: retained for the duration of your account, deleted when your account is deleted
- Purchase records: 7 years after purchase (tax and legal requirements)
- Error logs & crash data: 90 days
- Deleted user records (email address and trial expiry date only): 2 years after deletion (anti-abuse prevention)
- Analytics data: per Google Analytics retention settings
Once a retention period expires, personal data is deleted. After deletion, rights of access, erasure, rectification, and data portability cannot be exercised for data that no longer exists.
Account Deletion
You can permanently delete your account in the app: Menu > Profile > "Permanently Delete Your Account." Deletion requires triple confirmation and re-authentication to prevent accidental loss.
When you delete your account, we delete:
- Your user profile and all preferences
- All activity data
- Your Firebase Authentication account
We retain the following after deletion as described in Data Retention above: purchase records (7 years, legal requirement), your email address and trial expiry date (2 years, anti-abuse), and error logs (90 days).
Note: Account deletion does not currently automatically propagate to all third-party services (such as Klaviyo or Stripe). We are working to automate this. In the meantime, you may contact us at [email protected] to request manual removal from third-party systems.
International Data Transfers
Saturday Inc. is based in the United States. If you are located outside the US, your data will be transferred to and processed in the US. We rely on Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) approved by the European Commission as the legal mechanism for transferring data from the EEA, UK, and Switzerland to the US. Our third-party service providers (Google, Klaviyo, Stripe) also maintain appropriate data transfer mechanisms.
Children's Privacy
The Saturday app is not intended for use by anyone under the age of 16. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 16. If you are under 16, please do not use the app or provide any personal information. If we learn that we have collected data from a user under 16, we will delete it promptly. Parents or guardians who believe their child has provided data to us should contact [email protected].
Data Security
We implement appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect your data, including encryption in transit (TLS) and at rest, Firebase security rules restricting data access to authenticated users, and access controls limiting employee access to personal data. No system is perfectly secure, but we take reasonable steps to protect your information.
Data Breach Notification
In the event of a data breach that poses a risk to your rights and freedoms, we will notify affected users without undue delay and no later than 72 hours after becoming aware of the breach (as required by GDPR) or within the timeframe required by applicable state law. We will also notify relevant supervisory authorities as required by law.

- Access: Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
