What’s “lifestyle” in this context?

I can think of a couple of meanings, but the first thing I’d recommend is a lawyer to figure out your language, privacy policy, exposure if using certain terms.

For example results, quality, etc would need legal documents to basically say ‘results may vary’ based on jurisdiction.

A lifestyle business is a small business that’s designed to support the owner with a steady cash flow, rather than focusing on growth like a VC-funded startup.
Thanks for that!

I was thinking of focusing on others lifestyles. Things like food, exercise, shakes, etc

Lawyers are very expensive and small startups generally don't have a lot of cash. Better to base EULA, privacy policy etc off boilerplate IMO. Unless maybe you are doing something unusual or potentially hazardous e.g. software controlling medical equipment.
