PRogress Privacy Policy

Effective date: October 20, 2026 (PRogress 1.4.2)

PRogress ("the app") is a workout tracker for people who lift. This policy explains what information the app collects, how it is used, and the choices you have. Your data exists to make the app work for you, and for nothing else.

Information we collect

• Account information. Your email address (used only to sign you in; it is never shown to other users) and, if you sign in with Apple or Google, the account identifier those services provide.
• Profile information. The display name, username and bio you choose. Your display name and username are visible to other signed-in users (for example in friend search and the Friends feed).
• Workouts and training data. The workouts you log — exercises, sets, weights, repetitions, how hard a set felt (an optional effort rating), duration and notes — plus your personal records, the programs you build, your Coach goals, and which Coach sessions you completed.
• Friends activity. Who you follow, workouts you give kudos to, people you block, and any report you submit (the reason you picked, the workout and the person reported).
• Optional Apple Health data. Only if you connect Apple Health. See Apple Health below.

Kept only on your device

• Your units, the bodyweight and sex you enter for Coach's strength comparisons, rest-timer alerts and similar preferences.
• Everything the app reads from Apple Health.

What we do NOT collect

• No advertising, no advertising identifiers, and no third-party analytics or tracking SDKs. We do not track you across other companies' apps or websites.
• No location data, contacts, messages or browsing history.

Apple Health

Connecting Apple Health is optional and needs your explicit permission, which you can change at any time in the Health app (tap your profile picture, then Apps → PRogress).

• Read: your latest bodyweight, heart-rate variability, resting heart rate and recent sleep. These are used only on your device to show recovery signals and to tailor Coach's guidance. They are not uploaded to our servers.
• Write: completed strength workouts (time, duration, the workout's title and your time zone). The first time you connect, the app also copies your finished workouts from the last 30 days, once, so your Health history is complete.
• Apple Health data is never used for advertising or marketing, never sold, and never shared with third parties.

How your information is used

• To provide the app's features: logging workouts, tracking records and progress, Coach plans, programs, and the Friends feed.
• Coach's calculations run on your device from your own training history. Coach gives general training guidance, not medical advice.
• Workouts set to "Friends can see" are visible to people who follow you. You can make any workout private, and you can change the default in Settings.
• Reports are reviewed by the developer to enforce the community rules, which can include removing content or accounts.
• We do not sell your data, share it with advertisers, or use it for marketing.

Where your data is stored

Account and training data is stored in Google Firebase (Authentication and Cloud Firestore), acting as our service provider. Google may process basic technical information (such as IP addresses) to operate these services securely; see Firebase's privacy documentation. Security rules ensure only you can change your own records.

Sign in with Apple and Google

If you use Sign in with Apple or Google Sign-In, authentication is handled by Apple or Google. The app receives only your account identifier and email address (with Apple, you may choose to hide your email). The app never sees your password for these services.

Deleting your account and data

You can delete your account at any time in the app: Profile → Settings → Delete account. This permanently deletes your account, profile, workouts, personal records, programs, Coach goals and history, kudos, follows, blocks and the reports you submitted. If you signed in with Apple, the app also revokes its access to your Apple ID. Deletion is immediate and cannot be undone. Workouts the app already wrote to Apple Health stay in Apple Health, where you can delete them yourself.

Children

PRogress is not directed at children under 13 (or the equivalent minimum age in your jurisdiction), and we do not knowingly collect data from them.

Changes to this policy

If we make material changes, we will update this page and the effective date above.
