Privacy Policy
We are committed to protecting your personal health data. This policy explains what we collect, why we collect it, and how we keep it safe.
📅 Last Updated: April 1, 2026 | Effective: April 1, 2026 | Version 2.1
Summary: We collect only the health data you voluntarily enter or that your device sensors provide. We never sell your data. All data is encrypted. You can delete everything at any time.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect for the following purposes:
- To provide the service: Calculate your fitness stats, generate personalized workout and meal plans, track your progress, and sync your data across devices.
- To improve the app: Analyze aggregate, anonymized usage patterns to fix bugs, improve performance, and develop new features.
- To communicate with you: Send account-related emails (password resets, security alerts) and, with your consent, optional newsletters or feature announcements.
- To provide support: Respond to your questions, bug reports, and feedback submissions.
- To ensure security: Detect and prevent fraud, abuse, or unauthorized access to your account.
We do not use your personal health data for advertising targeting, profiling, or any commercial purpose beyond operating the app.
3. Data Sharing & Third Parties
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We may share limited data with trusted third parties only in these circumstances:
- Service providers: Cloud hosting (AWS/GCP) and analytics providers that process data on our behalf under strict data processing agreements (DPAs).
- Wearable integrations: If you connect a third-party device (Fitbit, Garmin, Apple HealthKit), data flows between that service and our app according to their respective privacy policies.
- Legal requirements: We may disclose data if required by law, court order, or to protect the rights and safety of our users.
- Business transfers: In the event of a merger or acquisition, your data may be transferred — you will be notified in advance.
All third-party partners are contractually prohibited from using your data for any purpose other than providing services to us.
4. Data Storage & Security
We take security seriously and implement industry-standard protections:
- Encryption at rest: All stored data is encrypted using AES-256.
- Encryption in transit: All data transmitted between your device and our servers uses TLS 1.3.
- Access controls: Only authorized personnel with a legitimate need can access user data, and all access is logged.
- Regular audits: We conduct security audits and penetration tests on a regular basis.
- Data retention: We retain your account data for as long as your account is active. If you delete your account, all personal data is permanently erased within 30 days.
Your data is stored on servers located in the United States and European Union. If you are located outside these regions, your data may be transferred internationally under appropriate safeguards (Standard Contractual Clauses for EU users).
5. Your Rights & Choices
Depending on your location, you have the following rights regarding your personal data:
- Access: Request a copy of all personal data we hold about you.
- Correction: Update or correct inaccurate information at any time via your Profile settings.
- Deletion: Delete your account and all associated data from Settings → Account → Delete Account. Permanent deletion occurs within 30 days.
