Terms of Service
Last updated November 12, 2026
These terms are an agreement between you and Macro-HQ ("Macro-HQ", "we", "us") for your use of the Macro-HQ iPhone app, the coach dashboard and this website (the "Service"). By creating an account or using the Service, you agree to these terms and our Privacy Policy.
Not medical advice
Macro-HQ is a tool for tracking food and following a nutrition plan. It isn't medical, dietary or health advice, and it doesn't replace a doctor or registered dietitian. Calculated targets are general estimates. Talk to a qualified professional before changing your diet, especially if you're pregnant, have a medical condition or a history of disordered eating. Food data comes from third-party databases and user submissions and may contain errors.
Your account
- You must be at least 13 to use Macro-HQ, and have a parent or guardian's permission if you're under 18.
- Give accurate information and keep your password safe. You're responsible for activity on your account.
- You can delete your account at any time in the app.
Coaches and clients
Coaches are independent and are not employed by Macro-HQ. We don't supervise or guarantee any coach's advice. If you're a client, joining a coach lets them see and manage parts of your account as described in our Privacy Policy, and you can leave at any time. If you're a coach, you agree to:
- Use client information only to coach that client, keep it confidential, and follow applicable laws.
- Stay within your professional qualifications and not present the Service as medical care.
- Not invite or add people without their permission.
Subscriptions and payment
Some features may require a paid subscription. When paid plans are available, prices, trial terms and what's included will be shown before you buy. Subscriptions bought in the iPhone app are billed and managed by Apple under Apple's terms, renew automatically until cancelled, and can be cancelled in your Apple account settings. Coach and gym plans may be billed separately. Except where required by law, payments are non-refundable.
Your content
You keep ownership of what you add to Macro-HQ, like your log, notes, photos and messages. You give us permission to store, process and display it as needed to run the Service, including showing it to a coach you've joined. When you submit a food, you allow us to use the nutrition details to add that food to our catalog for all users.
Acceptable use
Don't misuse the Service. For example, don't break the law, harass anyone, upload content you don't have rights to, try to access other people's accounts or data, interfere with or overload our systems, scrape or copy the food database, or reverse engineer the Service. We may suspend or close accounts that break these terms.
Third-party services
The Service uses third-party data and services, such as food databases and Apple Health. Their availability and accuracy are outside our control, and your use of them may be subject to their own terms.
Changes and availability
We're always improving Macro-HQ and may add, change or remove features. We may update these terms; if changes are significant we'll tell you in the app or by email, and continuing to use the Service means you accept them.
Disclaimers and limits of liability
The Service is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, to the extent allowed by law. To the extent allowed by law, Macro-HQ isn't liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for loss of data, profits or goodwill, and our total liability for any claim relating to the Service is limited to the amount you paid us for the Service in the 12 months before the claim (or $50 if you paid nothing).
Ending these terms
You can stop using the Service and delete your account at any time. We may suspend or end your access if you break these terms or if we stop offering the Service. Sections that by their nature should survive (such as content permissions you've granted for submitted foods, disclaimers and limits of liability) will survive.
