Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

Welcome to ArcFit ("we," "our," or "us"). We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring the security of your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our mobile application (the "App").

By using ArcFit, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with our policies and practices, please do not use our App.

Privacy-First Approach: ArcFit stores ALL your data locally on your device using Apple's SwiftData framework. We do not collect, transmit, or store any of your personal information or workout data on external servers.

2. Information We Collect

2.1 Information Stored Locally on Your Device

All the following data is stored exclusively on your device and is never transmitted to our servers:

• Cardio Sessions: Duration, distance, intervals, and session notes for cardio exercises
• Body Weight Entries: Body weight measurements, units (kg/lbs), and measurement dates
• Workout Routines: Routine names, difficulty levels, estimated duration, days per week, selected days, exercises by day, and completion statistics
• Scheduled Workouts: Scheduled workout dates, completion status, and links to routines
• App Preferences: Sound effects (on/off), haptic feedback (on/off), and appearance mode (light/dark/system)

2.3 Device Information (Local Check Only)

The app performs a single local check to determine if your device is an iPhone or iPad. This is used solely to enable or disable haptic feedback (which is only available on iPhones). This check is performed locally and no device information is collected or transmitted.

3. How We Use Your Information

3.1 Local Data Processing Only
