Privacy Policy

Last updated: 5 June 2026

1. Introduction

   This Privacy Policy describes how Lift Buddy (“the App”, “we”, “our”) handles user data. We are committed to protecting user privacy.

2. Overview

   The App does not collect, transmit, store, or process any personal data on external servers. All data is stored locally on the user’s device.

3. Information We Collect

   The App does not collect personal data. All information entered into the App is created and stored by the user locally on their device and may include:

   • workout logs
   • exercise names
   • weights and repetitions
   • rest times
   • training notes

   This data remains on the device and is not accessible to us.

4. HealthKit

   The App integrates with Apple HealthKit only with the user’s explicit permission.

   HealthKit data:

   • is used only to enable workout tracking functionality
   • is accessed only on-device
   • is not transmitted to external servers
   • is not shared with third parties
   • is not used for advertising or tracking
   • is not combined with any other user data

   All HealthKit usage complies with Apple HealthKit policies. Users may revoke access at any time in iOS Settings.

5. Live Activities

   The App uses Live Activities to display workout progress on the Lock Screen and Dynamic Island.

   • Live Activities are generated locally on the device
   • They are session-based and temporary
   • No data is collected, stored externally, or transmitted
6. Local Notifications

   The App may use local notifications to provide workout reminders or timers.

   • Notifications are generated on-device only
   • No notification data is sent externally
7. Data Storage

   All user data is stored locally on the device using Apple-provided storage mechanisms (e.g. UserDefaults or system storage APIs).

   The App does not operate servers and does not perform external backups of user data.

   Data may be restored if the device is restored from an iCloud or device backup. Deleting the App removes locally stored data from the device.

8. Third-Party Services

   The App does not use:

   • third-party analytics
   • advertising networks
   • tracking technologies
   • external data processors
9. Data Security

   The App relies on iOS system-level security protections to store data securely on the device.

   While no system can guarantee absolute security, no user data is transmitted or stored externally by the App.

10. User Rights

    Because all data is stored locally on the user’s device:

    • users have full control over their data
    • we do not have access to user data
    • we cannot modify or delete user data remotely
11. Children’s Privacy

    The App does not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13.

12. Changes to This Privacy Policy

    We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date.
