Health data

Consumer health data privacy policy

This policy applies to health-related information you choose to enter in Avo. It is provided under Washington's My Health My Data Act and similar state laws, and is separate from Avo's general privacy policy.

Last updated: July 27, 2026

What We Collect

Only what you enter yourself. Avo does not read health data from other apps or devices unless you connect them.

•Daily health entries: sleep hours, water, exercise minutes, energy level, weight, heart rate, and blood pressure, plus any custom measurement you add and any notes you write on an entry.
•Mood: the mood you record on a health entry or attach to a journal entry, and mood trends calculated from those entries.
•Medications: names, dosages, schedules, and reminder settings you enter.
•Health goals and preferences: targets you set, such as a sleep or water goal, and your unit preferences.
•Progress photos: images you upload to a health entry.
•Connected fitness data: if you connect Google Fit, the activity, body, and sleep data you authorize. Connecting is optional and you can disconnect at any time.

Why We Collect It

To run the features you asked for — nothing else.

•Show your entries, trends, streaks, and goals back to you.
•Send reminders you set up, such as a medication reminder.
•Answer questions you ask about your own health entries, when you have turned that on (see below).
•Keep your account secure and the service working.
•Avo does not use consumer health data for advertising, and does not sell it. Avo does not use it to train a general-purpose AI model.

Who It Is Shared With

Health data stays in your account unless one of these applies.

•Infrastructure providers that store and serve your data: Google Cloud and Firebase, under contracts that limit them to processing it for Avo.
•Google Gemini, only when you have turned on health in AI replies, and only the health context needed to answer the request you made. Avo's paid Gemini configuration means Google does not use it to improve its products; Google may retain requests for a limited period for abuse monitoring and security.
•Google Fit, only if you connect it, and only to read the data you authorize.
•No one else. Avo does not share consumer health data with advertisers, data brokers, or analytics partners.
•We may disclose information if the law requires it, or to protect people or the service.

Health Data and Avo's AI

Off unless you turn it on.

•By default, Avo's assistant cannot use your mood or health entries when answering. Health context is excluded from replies until you turn it on.
•You can turn it on or off at any time in Settings, under Avo. Turning it off stops future use immediately; it does not delete entries Avo already discussed with you in past conversations.
•Your health entries stay visible to you in the Health and Journal views whether this setting is on or off. The setting only controls whether the assistant may use them.
•Turning this on is a separate choice. Accepting Avo's terms of service does not turn it on.

Your Rights

You can see, delete, and stop the collection of your health data.

•Withdraw consent: turn off health in AI replies in Settings, or disconnect Google Fit, at any time.
•Delete: you can delete individual entries, medications, and photos in the app at any time. To delete all of it at once, go to Settings, then Privacy & data, and use Delete my health data. This removes your health entries, medications, symptoms, lab results, appointments, workouts, mood history, and health photos. Journal entries keep their text and only the mood on them is cleared, and recipes and meals are not affected. If you would rather we do it for you, email privacy@heyavo.ai from your account email.
•Access a copy: request an export of your data, including health entries, at privacy@heyavo.ai.
•Deleting your Avo account deletes your health entries, medications, health preferences, and progress photos along with the rest of your account data.
•We may need to verify your identity before acting on a request, and we will respond within the time the law allows. If we decline a request, you may appeal by replying to our response.

How Long We Keep It

For as long as your account is active, unless you delete it sooner.

•Health entries, medications, goals, and photos are kept while your account is open so your history and trends stay intact.
•Deleting an entry removes it. Deleting your account removes all of it, after the 30-day grace period described in the privacy policy.
•Backups and provider security logs follow their own schedules and are not used to restore deleted data into your account.
