Privacy Policy
Last updated July 6, 2026
The short version: FitZones collects nothing. There are no accounts, no analytics, no ads, no tracking, and no FitZones servers. Your workout data is stored on your iPhone and, if you choose, in Apple Health. I never see it.
Data the app stores on your device
- Workout history — duration, distance, pace, heart rate samples, time in each zone, calories, the route of outdoor workouts, and the zone boundaries in effect at the time. Stored in the app's local database on your iPhone.
- Your profile and settings — age, sex, resting and maximum heart rate, and announcement preferences. Stored locally in the app's settings.
None of this is transmitted to me or to any third party.
Apple Health
With your permission, FitZones reads your live heart rate during workouts and your resting heart rate from Apple Health, and saves completed workouts (including route and calories) back to it. You can turn workout saving off in Settings, and you can change Health permissions at any time in the Health app. Health data is managed by Apple on your device and handled under Apple's privacy policy; FitZones only reads and writes the categories you approve.
Location
For outdoor runs, walks, and hikes, FitZones uses your location while the app is in use to measure distance and pace and to draw your route map. Routes are stored only on your device (and in Apple Health if workout saving is on).
One exception worth being explicit about: after an outdoor workout, the app asks Apple's geocoding service to turn one coordinate from your route into a place name (like "Riverside Park") to label the workout in your history. That lookup is processed by Apple under Apple's privacy policy; I never receive your location.
What FitZones does not do
- No data collection of any kind — the app's App Store privacy label is "Data Not Collected."
- No analytics or crash-reporting SDKs.
- No third-party code that phones home.
- No ads, no tracking, no selling of data (there is nothing to sell).
Deleting your data
- Delete individual workouts from the history screen in the app.
- Deleting the app removes all app data, including history and settings.
- Workouts saved to Apple Health remain there until you delete them in the Health app, where you're in control.
Children
FitZones does not knowingly collect any data from anyone, including children, because it does not collect data at all.
Changes to this policy
If a future version of the app ever changes how data is handled, this page will be updated first and the date above will change. Given the app's design, don't expect much movement here.
