Workout App
Privacy Policy
Effective 29 August 2026
This policy explains how Workout, operated by James Blankley, handles information when you use the app or its Android wrapper.
Information we handle
- Account and profile details such as your name, username, date of birth, height, training preferences, equipment access, and preferred workout days.
- Training records such as programs, exercises, sets, reps, weights, estimated one-rep maxes, personal bests, readiness, effort, exercise notes, swaps, and coaching or form-review results.
- Body and nutrition records such as weight, body-fat percentage, skinfolds, circumference measurements, food, meals, portions, macros, favourites, and diet questions.
- Images and videos you choose to upload, including food photos, exercise form videos, and equipment photos. These are used for the requested analysis or display.
- Essential technical information needed to authenticate accounts, keep the service reliable, protect it from misuse, and diagnose errors.
How we use it
We use this information to provide the workout, body, history, nutrition, coaching, progress, and equipment features; calculate training metrics; generate or adapt programs; analyse food and form uploads; remember relevant coaching feedback; and keep the service secure.
If you enable Health Connect, the Android wrapper can read the health data you authorise, such as activity, calories, distance, floors, sleep stages, heart rate, HRV, exercise sessions, weight, body composition, hydration, VO2 max, and nutrition summaries. The app uses daily summaries for charts and coaching, plus timestamped derived HRV readings for the optional 24-hour HRV chart; raw Health Connect records remain on your device. Android may offer a separate permission for older history. It can also write completed workouts and confirmed nutrition records when you grant write permission. You can change these permissions in Android Health Connect at any time.
AI processing
When you request coaching, program generation, form review, food analysis, or similar features, relevant profile, training, body, nutrition, Health Connect summary, and upload data may be sent to the configured AI provider used for that task. The app may use Codex or OpenAI and configured fallback providers. AI results are returned to the app to provide the requested feature and may be saved in your history or coaching memory.
Do not upload information you do not want processed. AI nutrition and training outputs are estimates and are not medical advice.
Sharing and external services
We do not sell your personal information. Information is shared only as needed to host and operate the app, provide an AI request you start, process an optional Health Connect sync, or comply with law. You may see links to services such as YouTube and Instagram; those services have their own privacy policies when you open them.
Storage and retention
Your account, training, body, nutrition, and confirmed coaching history is kept while it is needed to operate your account, unless it is deleted sooner. Health Connect daily summaries are retained for the available history that the user syncs, within a practical lifetime window. Uploaded food images are stored temporarily for processing and are normally removed after confirmation or automatic cleanup. Exercise videos and other uploads may be retained while processing and while their associated review is needed; resulting notes can remain in your history.
Your choices
- Edit or remove food, body, workout, and coaching records through the app where those controls are available.
- Revoke Health Connect read or write permissions in Android Health Connect.
- Submit an account-deletion request from Edit Profile - Delete account or through the public account-deletion form. The app verifies your username and password, stores no plaintext password, and sends the request to an administrator for approval. After approval, the account and associated data are scheduled for deletion within 14 days.
- Contact us to request access, correction, or deletion of personal information associated with your account.
Security and changes
We use reasonable technical and organisational safeguards, including authenticated access and access controls, but no internet service can guarantee absolute security. We may update this policy when the app or its data practices change. The effective date above identifies the current version.
