Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 14, 2026

SweatTax ("we", "us", or "our") is a workout accountability app. This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your choices.

1. Information We Collect

Account information. When you sign up we collect your email address and any display name you choose.

Workout and plan data. We store the workout plans you create, scheduled sessions, and check-in records so we can track your accountability streak.

Location. When you check in at a gym, we request your device's precise location to verify you are within the gym's geofence. Location is only accessed while the app is open and in use — we never access location in the background. We store only a confirmation of the check-in, not your GPS coordinates.

Motion data. For timer-based at-home workouts, we sample the accelerometer to confirm physical activity during your session. This data is processed on-device and is not stored on our servers.

Progress photos. If you choose to take or upload progress pictures, those images are stored securely and are only visible to you. This feature is entirely optional.

Friends, social data, and Pacts. If you add friends within the app, we store those connections so you can view each other's accountability activity. Pact commitments you create or accept with friends are stored to track mutual progress. You control who you connect with.

Push notifications. We send you workout reminders and streak alerts. You can disable these at any time in your device settings.

Usage data. We may collect basic analytics (e.g., app crashes, feature usage) to improve the app. This data is not linked to your identity.

2. How We Use Your Information

  • To provide and operate the SweatTax service
  • To verify gym check-ins using GPS geofencing
  • To send workout reminders and streak notifications
  • To display your progress and activity to friends you have connected with
  • To display your progress pictures to you
  • To improve app reliability and user experience

3. How We Share Your Information

We do not sell your personal data. We share data only with:

  • Supabase – our database and authentication provider
  • Apple – for push notifications
  • Law enforcement or regulators, if required by law

4. Data Retention

We keep your data for as long as your account is active. You can request deletion of your account and all associated data at any time by contacting us.

5. Your Choices

  • Location: You can deny location permission. GPS gym check-in will be unavailable; timer-based check-in still works.
  • Progress photos: Entirely optional. You can delete any photo at any time from within the app.
  • Notifications: Disable in your device's Settings app at any time.
  • Account deletion: Go to Settings → Delete Account in the app, or contact us and we will delete your account and data within 30 days.

6. Children's Privacy

SweatTax is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

7. Security

We use industry-standard measures including encrypted storage and HTTPS for all data in transit.

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy from time to time. We will notify you of material changes via the app or by email. Continued use after changes constitutes acceptance.
