This Privacy Policy explains how (“Nutrx”, “we”, “us”) collects, uses, stores and shares information when you use the Nutrx website (the “Service”). Nutrx helps people compare health-functional products and learn which ones are verified, recalled or deceptively marketed.

1. Summary

• You can browse Nutrx without an account. We don’t run ads or advertising trackers.
• If you sign in with Google, we receive only your name, email address and profile photo. We use them to create your account and show who is signed in.
• We store what you choose to save — favorite products and optional profile details — so you can see them across devices.
• We do not sell your information, and we do not use Google user data for advertising.
• You can delete your account and saved data at any time from your profile page.

2. Information we collect

Health goals and allergies are optional and entered by you. Please don’t add anything you aren’t comfortable storing. Nutrx does not provide medical advice and does not need medical records.

3. How we access, use, store and share Google user data

What we access. When you sign in with Google, we request only the basic sign-in permissions (openid, email and profile). This gives us your name, email address and profile photo URL. We do not request access to your Gmail, Google Drive, Contacts, Calendar or any other Google data.

How we use it. We use this information only to sign you in, create and identify your Nutrx account, display your name and photo in the site header and on your profile page, and link your favorites and profile details to your account.

How we store it. Your account is managed by Google Firebase Authentication. Your name, email, photo URL, favorites and profile details are stored in a Google Cloud Firestore database that only your signed-in account can read or change.

How we share it. We do not sell, rent or trade Google user data. We do not share it with third parties except (a) the service providers that run the Service on our behalf (Google Firebase), (b) when you ask us to, or (c) when required by law, to protect against fraud or abuse, or as part of a merger or acquisition with notice to you. We do not use Google user data for advertising, and we do not use it to train AI or machine-learning models. People at Nutrx do not read your data unless you ask us to (for example, for support), it is needed for security, or the law requires it.

Nutrx’s use and transfer of information received from Google APIs will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.

4. How we use information

• To provide the Service: sign-in, favorites, comparisons and your profile.
• To respond to messages and product review submissions.
• To keep the Service secure and prevent abuse.
• To comply with legal obligations.

We don’t use your information for advertising, and we don’t build advertising profiles.

5. Sharing & service providers

We use a small number of providers to run Nutrx. They process information only to provide their service to us:

• Google Firebase (Authentication and Cloud Firestore): account sign-in and storage of your saved data.
• FormSubmit (formsubmit.co): delivers contact messages and product review submissions, including any photo you attach, to our email inbox.
• Google Fonts: delivers the site’s typeface. Your browser contacts Google’s servers to load it.
• Our website host: serves the site’s pages.

Product pages link to outside websites (for example FDA notices, articles, videos and stores). Those sites have their own privacy policies.

6. Storage, cookies & local storage

Nutrx does not use advertising or analytics cookies. If you sign in, Firebase stores a sign-in token in your browser (in local storage or IndexedDB) to keep you signed in. If you use a local profile instead of Google sign-in, your profile and favorites are saved only in your browser’s local storage on that device and are never sent to us.

7. Retention & deletion

We keep your account information and saved data until you delete your account. To delete it, sign in, open your profile page and choose Delete account. This permanently removes your profile, favorites and sign-in record from our systems. Backups maintained by our providers are cleared on their normal schedule. You can also ask us to delete your data by contacting us.

You can remove Nutrx’s access to your Google account at any time at myaccount.google.com/connections. Messages and product submissions arrive in our email inbox and are kept only as long as needed to respond to them and review the product.

8. Your choices & rights

You can view and edit your profile details, remove favorites, and delete your account from your profile page at any time. Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, delete or receive a copy of your personal information, to object to or restrict certain processing, and to withdraw consent. To make a request, contact us. We will respond within the time required by applicable law.

9. Security

Data is sent over encrypted connections (HTTPS). Access to saved data is restricted so that each signed-in account can read and change only its own record. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, but we work to protect your information.

10. Children

Nutrx is not directed to children under . We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under without the consent of a parent or guardian. If you believe a child has given us personal information, contact us and we will delete it.

11. International transfers

Our service providers may process information in countries other than yours, including the United States. Where required, we rely on appropriate safeguards for these transfers.

12. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. We will change the “Last updated” date above, and if the changes are significant we will provide a more prominent notice. We will not use Google user data in new ways without telling you first and, where required, asking for your consent.

13. Contact us

Questions or requests about privacy?

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your use of the Nutrx website and related services (the “Service”), operated by (“Nutrx”, “we”, “us”). Please read them carefully.

1. Accepting these terms

By using the Service you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you don’t agree, please don’t use the Service.

2. What Nutrx is

Nutrx is an educational resource. It lists health-functional products with verified information, fake, recalled or deceptively marketed products, side-by-side comparisons, and short NUTRX Series articles. Much of the information is summarized from public sources such as government recall notices and product labels, with links to the original sources.

3. Not medical advice

Nutrx does not provide medical advice, diagnosis or treatment. Content on Nutrx is for general information only. Always talk to a doctor, pharmacist or other qualified health professional before starting, stopping or changing any supplement or medication, especially if you are pregnant, nursing, taking medication or have a medical condition. Never ignore professional advice or delay seeking it because of something you read on Nutrx. In an emergency, call your local emergency number.

A “verified” label means the information we found was documented in reliable sources at the time we reviewed it. It is not an endorsement, guarantee of safety, or recommendation that a product is right for you. A product’s status can change after we review it, so check the linked sources for the latest information.

4. Eligibility

You must be at least years old to create an account, or have permission from a parent or guardian where the law requires it.

5. Accounts

You can browse without an account. To save favorites and profile details you can sign in with Google. You are responsible for activity on your account and for keeping your Google account secure. You can delete your Nutrx account at any time from your profile page. A “local profile” is stored only in your browser. Clearing your browser data removes it, and we can’t recover it.

6. Your submissions

When you send a message or submit a product for review (including photos and comments), you confirm that you have the right to share it. You give Nutrx a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license to use, store, reproduce and display it to review the product, operate and improve the Service, and publish findings about the product. We won’t publish your name or contact details without your permission. Don’t submit other people’s personal information or anything unlawful.

7. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

• use the Service for anything unlawful, harmful or misleading;
• try to access other users’ accounts or data, or get around security measures;
• scrape, overload or disrupt the Service, or use automated means to access it in ways that put a load on our systems;
• submit false reports about products or companies, or content that is defamatory, infringing or abusive;
• present Nutrx content as medical advice, or suggest that Nutrx endorses you or a product.

8. Our content

The Nutrx name, logo, site design, NUTRX Series articles and original text belong to Nutrx or its licensors. You may view and share links to the Service for personal, non-commercial purposes. Please don’t copy or republish substantial parts without permission. Product names, logos and images belong to their respective owners and are shown for identification and commentary only.

9. Third-party links

The Service links to other websites, including government notices, news articles, videos and online stores. We don’t control those sites and aren’t responsible for their content, products or privacy practices. A “where to buy” link is not an endorsement, and any purchase is between you and the seller.

10. Disclaimers

We work to keep information accurate and up to date, but the Service is provided “as is” and “as available”. To the extent the law allows, we make no warranties, express or implied, about the accuracy, completeness, reliability or availability of the Service or any information on it, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement.

11. Limitation of liability

To the extent the law allows, Nutrx and the people behind it will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for any loss arising from your use of, or reliance on, the Service or any product listed on it. Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law.

12. Ending your use

You can stop using the Service and delete your account at any time. We may suspend or end access for anyone who breaks these Terms or misuses the Service, and we may change or stop parts of the Service.

13. Changes to these terms

We may update these Terms. We will change the “Last updated” date above, and for significant changes we will give a more prominent notice. Continuing to use the Service after changes take effect means you accept the updated Terms.
