What Emily knows about you

Emily is useful because she knows your week. It is worth knowing exactly what that means.

What she can see

• Your plan: the meals in your week, their ingredients and their nutrition.
• What you did: what you marked as eaten, skipped or eaten out, and what you swapped.
• Your preferences: your diet pattern, allergens, foods you avoid, cooking time, household and portion size.
• Your shopping list, including what you have ticked off.
• Your goal, and your target weight if you have set one.
• Your agreements: what you said you would try, and whether it was settled.

That is largely the same information the rest of the app works from. Nothing extra is collected because you used Emily.

Your health details

The health answers you gave at setup, such as your diabetes type, are treated as special-category data and are handled separately. Whether Emily is told them is controlled by Bolus, not left on by default.

Glucose is the same: she never receives your raw readings. What she can be given is a short reflection of how a meal tended to go, never the numbers themselves, and only where the relevant settings are on. She reflects what already happened rather than predicting anything.

What she is never told

• Anything about anyone but you.
• Your email, your real name or your account identifier. What reaches her is a purpose-built summary without them.
• Your payment details. Those live with Apple and Bolus never sees them. See how payment works.

Your conversations

Your thread is yours. If your subscription lapses, the conversation is kept and she picks it up if you come back. If you delete your account, it goes with everything else. See delete your account and what data Bolus collects.
