(“Company” or “we” or “us”) collects, stores, uses, transfers and discloses Personal Data from our users (“you”) in connection with the Company mobile application and related services (collectively, the “App”).

We reserve the right to and may change this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make any material changes, we will notify you by email (if you provide us any email address), through the App, or by publishing a notice on our website, or by presenting you with a new version of this Privacy Policy for you to accept, if we, for example, add new processing activities or collect some additional Personal Data from you.

Your continued use of the App after the effective date of an updated version of the Privacy Policy will indicate your acceptance of the Privacy Policy as modified. In some cases, you will have to explicitly accept changes to Privacy Policy to continue using the App. We strongly encourage you to review our website from time to time for the latest information on our data privacy practices. If you do not accept the terms of the Privacy Policy, we ask that you do not use the App. Please exit the App immediately and delete it if you do not agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy.

You will also have an option to permit us to import and export the App data from third-party services such as Apple HealthKit, among others. Such information may include: weight, gender, height, heartbeat rate, number of steps/distance travelled, and other information about your health.

Permitting us to access third party information can help you to maximize your App experience, and we will handle any such third-party information in full accordance with this Privacy Policy.

If the information covered by this Section is aggregated or de-identified so it is no longer reasonably associated with an identified or identifiable natural person, we may use it for any business purpose. To the extent information covered by this Section is associated with an identified or identifiable natural person and is protected as personal data under applicable data protection laws, it is referred to in this Privacy Policy as “Personal Data”. We use pseudonymization for particular types of Personal Data. Please bear in mind that provisions of Section 3 do not apply to pseudonymized Personal Data.
