Version 1.4 — As of: March 2026

Privacy policy pursuant to GDPR Articles 13, 14 for the service "VitalStack".

22880 Wedel, Germany
Email: tilo@vital-stack.com

2. Overview of Data Processing

We process personal data exclusively for the purpose of providing our service. Below we inform you about the type, scope, and purpose of data processing.

3. Categories of Data Processed

4. Health Data (GDPR Article 9)

(1) Supplement intake data, health goals, and daily context data (sleep quality, stress level, training data) constitute health data within the meaning of GDPR Article 9. Your supplement list may reveal nutritional deficiencies, prevention interests, or possible health conditions.

(2) Processing is carried out exclusively on the basis of your explicit consent pursuant to GDPR Art. 9(2)(a). This consent is obtained separately and granularly during registration. Consent must be voluntary, informed, specific, and unambiguous. VitalStack documents the date of consent.

(3) Consent may be withdrawn at any time with effect for the future (GDPR Art. 7(3)). Withdrawal can be done via your AI assistant, by email, or via the REST API. The lawfulness of processing carried out prior to withdrawal remains unaffected. Withdrawal has no disadvantages for your use of VitalStack.

5. AI Assistants and MCP Interface

5.1 How AI Integration Works

VitalStack operates an MCP interface (Model Context Protocol). When you connect your AI assistant (e.g., Claude, ChatGPT) to VitalStack, your assistant can retrieve your supplement data via this interface to provide personalized responses.

Important: VitalStack does not proactively send your data to AI providers. Data flows only when your AI assistant queries VitalStack at your request. You control this connection entirely.

5.2 Responsibility

VitalStack is the data controller for data stored with us. Your AI provider (e.g., Anthropic, OpenAI) is an independent controller for the data it retrieves and is subject to its own privacy policies. VitalStack has no data processing agreement with these providers.

5.3 Accessible Data Categories

Via the MCP interface, your AI assistant can access the following depending on your query:

Not accessible via MCP: Password, payment data, email address.

VitalStack returns only the data relevant to the specific query (data minimization pursuant to GDPR Art. 5(1)(c)).

5.4 Legal Basis

Providing data via the MCP interface is based on:

You provide consent when activating the MCP connection.

5.5 Withdrawal

You can disconnect the MCP connection in your AI assistant at any time. VitalStack will then no longer provide any data. Data already retrieved by your AI provider can only be deleted directly with that provider.

6. Hosting, Data Processing and Third Country Transfers

6.1 Database

Your data is stored with Supabase Inc. in the EU region Frankfurt (AWS eu-central-1). A Data Processing Agreement (DPA) pursuant to GDPR Art. 28 is in place.

6.2 Application Hosting

The server application is operated via Vercel Inc. (USA) as a serverless runtime (region Frankfurt, fra1). Vercel serves solely as an execution environment for the application logic. No personal data is persistently stored at Vercel; all data is stored exclusively in the Supabase database. Vercel processes request data (IP address, request headers) only transiently in memory. The Vercel Privacy Policy and the guarantees of the EU-US Data Privacy Framework apply.

6.3 Email Service

Magic link emails are sent via Supabase built-in email service.

6.4 Third Country Transfers

(a) Own processors: Vercel Inc. is based in the United States and processes request data transiently in the Frankfurt region. The transfer is based on the EU-US Data Privacy Framework and a Data Processing Agreement. Supabase stores your data exclusively in the EU (Frankfurt).

(b) AI providers: VitalStack has no data processing agreement and no Standard Contractual Clauses (SCC) with AI providers such as Anthropic or OpenAI. Data retrieval is performed exclusively by your AI assistant at your direction. Anthropic and OpenAI are based in the United States and act as independent controllers for the data they retrieve. Their own privacy policies apply.

Risk notice: US authorities may, under certain circumstances, access data held by US providers (e.g., under FISA). If you do not wish to accept this risk, disconnect the MCP connection in your AI assistant.

7. Cookies and Local Storage

(1) The service uses no tracking cookies and no analytics tools.

(2) During registration, browser session storage (sessionStorage) is used temporarily to transfer consents between the login page and the callback page. This data is automatically deleted after registration and does not survive a browser restart.

8. Your Rights

You have the following rights regarding your personal data:

Exercising these rights has no negative consequences for your use of VitalStack.
