What we collect, and what we do with it
Short version: we collect what a dietitian needs to write your plan and a way to reach you. We do not sell it, and you can have it deleted by asking.

Who we are
Slim Diet provides online nutrition and training coaching in the United Arab Emirates. We are the ones who decide what happens to the information described here. To ask anything about it, message +971 50 334 3880 on WhatsApp or email slim.diet.uae@gmail.com.
What you give us
The calculator asks for your goal, sex, age, height, weight and how active your week is. To see your calorie target and protein figure, it also asks for a first name and a WhatsApp number.
The questionnaire, if you fill it in, adds where and how often you train, what equipment you have, how many meals suit you, the shape of your day, any dietary rules you follow, food you want kept in or left out, and anything else you choose to write — including allergies, injuries or medical notes, if you tell us about them. Your email address is optional.
What we work out from it
Your BMI, your resting burn, your maintenance calories, the calories and protein for your goal. These are calculated from what you told us and stored alongside it.
What is collected without you typing it
Which page you arrived on, the site that sent you, and the advertising tags in the link you clicked — so we can tell which advert brought you here. Also your IP address and browser identification, which every web server records.
Why we hold it
- To write your plan, and to reach you on WhatsApp about it.
- To adjust the plan as you check in.
- To know which adverts bring people who become clients, so we do not waste money on the ones that do not.
- To stop the form being abused, which is the only reason the IP address is kept.
We do not use it for anything else. You are not added to a marketing list, and nothing is sold or shared for anyone else's advertising.
Who else can see it
Your answers are stored on our own hosting with Hostinger, who keep the server running and can technically reach what is on it. A copy of each submission is emailed to us. Beyond that:
- Google serves the fonts these pages use, so your IP address reaches Google when a page loads.
- Meta receives a signal as you move through the site — when a page opens, when the calculator gives you your numbers, when you are asked for your number, when you hand it over, at each step of the questionnaire, when you tap WhatsApp, and if something fails to save — so we can measure our advertising. Each signal says which of those happened, on which page, and which version of a page you were shown. It never carries your BMI, your weight, your height, your calorie or protein figures, your goal, your name, your number, or any answer you typed.
- WhatsApp, also Meta, carries the conversation once you message us, and their terms cover it rather than this page. Our WhatsApp buttons open the app with a message already written. From the calculator that message sets out the readings it worked out for you — your BMI, height, weight, goal, maintenance calories, daily target and protein — alongside your name and a reference number, so a dietitian can read them without asking you to type them again. Everywhere else it is just your name and the reference. WhatsApp shows you the message before it is sent and you can change or delete any of it.
- TikTok is told when a page opens, when the calculator gives you your numbers, when you hand over your number, when the questionnaire is saved, and when you tap WhatsApp — so we can measure advertising we run there. It is told less than Meta, and in less detail: the steps in between are not sent to it at all, and these signals carry no detail whatever, not even which page you were on — only that the thing happened. Like Meta, it never carries your BMI, your weight, your height, your calorie or protein figures, your goal, your name, your number, or any answer you typed. It sets cookies of its own.
No one else. Your details are not sold, rented or passed to other coaches, clinics or supplement sellers.
What stays on your device
We set no advertising cookies of our own. The site keeps a few small values in your browser so it can work: the language you chose, the figures you entered so you do not type them twice, where you arrived from, and which version of a page you were shown. Your name and number are not among them — the calculator asks for them again every visit rather than remembering that you gave them. Clearing your browser data removes what is kept. Meta's and TikTok's measurement is switched on, and each sets cookies of its own.
How long we keep it
Enquiries that never become clients are deleted within 24 months. Client records are kept while we are working together and for 24 months afterwards, so a returning client does not start from nothing. Ask sooner and we will delete it sooner.
What you can ask us to do
You can ask for a copy of what we hold about you, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete it. Message +971 50 334 3880 on WhatsApp or email slim.diet.uae@gmail.com and we will do it within 30 days. There is no charge and you do not have to give a reason. If you are unhappy with how we handled it, you can complain to the UAE Data Office.
Age
You must be 16 or over to use this site. If you are 16 or 17 we will not give you a calorie target to eat to — the formulas behind those numbers are worked out on adults — and a dietitian will only go through your plan with a parent present. Under 16, do not use the calculator or the questionnaire; if you tell us someone under 16 has sent us their details, we will delete them.
Changes
If this changes, the date at the top changes with it. Anything that materially affects people already on our list will be told to them directly.
Slim Diet is nutrition and fitness coaching, not a medical service, and does not diagnose or treat any condition.
