Health & Fitness Data

Your health data stays on your device and in your control.

HealthKit
With your permission, FitPulse reads and writes workout, heart rate, active energy, and sleep data to Apple HealthKit. This data is governed by Apple's HealthKit privacy policy and is never sent to FitPulse servers.
Workout Logs
Your workout history, personal records, and custom training plans are stored locally on your device.
Apple Watch
Heart rate, calorie, and activity data from Apple Watch is accessed through HealthKit on your device only — never routed through our servers.

Voice & Microphone

Voice logging is processed entirely on-device.

On-Device Speech Recognition
Voice logging uses Apple's on-device speech recognition (Speech framework). Audio is never transmitted to FitPulse or any server.
Instant Deletion
After converting speech to text, the audio buffer is immediately released. No audio recordings are ever stored.
3

Location Data

GPS is used only for outdoor workout route mapping.

Outdoor Workouts
For activities like running or cycling, FitPulse may request location access to map your route. This data is stored locally on your device and never transmitted to our servers.
No Background Tracking
FitPulse never accesses your location when the app is closed or in the background (unless actively recording a workout with the screen locked).
Revoke Anytime
Location access can be revoked at any time via iOS Settings → FitPulse → Location.
4

Analytics

Minimal anonymized analytics help us improve the app.

Anonymous Feature Usage
We collect anonymized data about which training features are used most, to prioritize development. No personal or health data is included in analytics.
Opt-Out
Analytics can be disabled from Settings → Privacy → Analytics.
5

Third-Party Services

We use Apple's native frameworks exclusively.

Apple Frameworks Only
FitPulse integrates with HealthKit, CoreLocation, Speech, WatchConnectivity, and CloudKit — all Apple native. No third-party tracking, advertising, or analytics SDKs are included.
