Privacy Policy
Effective: 11 April 2026 · Last updated: 11 April 2026
TL;DR — STRN is a workout tracker. We store the training data you
log and, if you choose to connect them, data from your wearables. We never sell
your data. You can export or delete everything at any time from your profile.
1. Who we are
STRN ("STRN", "we", "us",
"our") provides the STRN workout tracking application (the
"App") and related website at
strn.app (together, the "Service").
This Privacy Policy explains what personal information we collect, why we
collect it, how we use and share it, and the rights you have over your data.
If you have any questions, contact us at
privacy@strn.app.
2. Information we collect
2.1 Information you provide
-
Account information — when you sign in with Google, we
receive your email address, display name, and profile picture from Google.
You can also use the App as a guest without an account.
-
Profile details — name, age, sex, height, training
experience and goals, if you choose to provide them.
-
Workout data — the exercises, sets, reps, weights, rest
times, RPE, notes, and timestamps of the sessions you log.
-
Body metrics — bodyweight, body fat %, measurements, and
other metrics you enter manually.
-
Activity log — non-gym activities (running, cycling,
climbing, etc.) with duration and your selected intensity.
-
Alcohol log — number of drinks and timestamps, if you
choose to record them for recovery tracking.
-
Support communications — if you email us, we keep the
correspondence to help you.
2.2 Information from wearables you connect
STRN can optionally connect to third-party health services. You control
which ones (if any) are linked, and you can disconnect at any time from the
Recovery screen.
| Source | What we receive | Where it is stored |
| Whoop |
HRV, resting heart rate, sleep duration and stages, strain, recovery score, workout sessions |
Our Firebase servers, linked to your account |
| Health Connect (Android) |
Sleep, heart rate, heart rate variability, resting heart rate, bodyweight, calories, exercise sessions |
Processed on your device; daily summaries cached in our servers when you are signed in |
| Apple HealthKit (iOS) |
Same as Health Connect, via Apple's HealthKit API |
Processed on your device; daily summaries cached in our servers when you are signed in |
We only read the data types listed above. STRN also writes completed
workouts (duration and estimated calories) back to Health Connect or
HealthKit if you grant write permission, so other apps on your device can
see your training activity.
2.3 Information collected automatically
-
Device and diagnostic data — crash reports, device model,
OS version, app version, and anonymized usage events used to diagnose bugs
and improve the App.
-
Authentication tokens — short-lived tokens used to keep
you signed in across sessions.
-
Push notification identifiers — if you enable
notifications (rest timer, reminders), we store a device-specific token
issued by Firebase Cloud Messaging.
STRN does not use third-party advertising SDKs, tracking
pixels, or behavioural ad networks.
3. How we use your information
- To provide the App and sync your training data across your devices.
-
To compute the recovery model — muscle readiness, CNS fatigue, training
load signals, and mesocycle recommendations — based on your logged
workouts and (optionally) your wearable data.
- To authenticate you and keep your account secure.
- To send workout-related notifications you have opted into.
-
To diagnose crashes, debug issues, and improve reliability and
performance.
-
To comply with legal obligations and enforce our
Terms of Service.
We never sell your personal information. We do not use your workout or
health data to train third-party AI models.
4. Legal basis for processing (EEA / UK users)
If you are in the European Economic Area or the UK, we process your data:
-
To perform our contract with you — providing the Service
you have asked for.
-
Based on your explicit consent — for optional
integrations such as wearable connections and sensitive health data
categories.
-
For our legitimate interests — operating, securing, and
improving the Service, where those interests do not override your rights.
-
To comply with legal obligations where applicable.
You can withdraw consent at any time by disconnecting the relevant
integration or deleting your account.
5. How we share your information
We share data only with the following categories of recipients:
-
Service providers that host our infrastructure. We use
Google Firebase (Authentication, Firestore, Cloud Functions, Hosting,
Cloud Messaging) to run the App. Your data is stored on Google's
infrastructure under their security controls.
-
Integrations you connect. When you link Whoop, we
exchange OAuth tokens with Whoop. We do not share your STRN-internal data
with Whoop unless you explicitly enable a sync.
-
Health Connect / HealthKit. Data exchanged with these
platforms stays on your device. STRN never uploads raw Health Connect or
HealthKit samples to our servers — we only store computed daily summaries
linked to your account.
-
Authorities or other parties when legally required. We
will disclose personal information if required by law, subpoena, or to
protect the rights, property or safety of STRN, our users or the public.
-
Successors to our business. If STRN is involved in a
merger, acquisition, or asset sale, your data may be transferred, subject
to the same commitments made in this Policy.
We do not share your data with advertisers, data brokers, or marketing
networks.
6. International transfers
Your data may be processed in countries outside your own, including the
United States (Firebase's default region). Where personal data is
transferred out of the EEA, UK, or other jurisdictions with data-transfer
restrictions, we rely on the safeguards provided by our service providers
(for example, Google's Standard Contractual Clauses).
7. How long we keep your data
-
Account and training data — for as long as your account
is active. If you delete your account, we delete your data from our
production systems within 30 days and from backups within 90 days.
-
Wearable data summaries — the most recent 14 days are
used by the recovery model. Older summaries are retained for your history
unless you delete them.
-
Diagnostic logs — retained for up to 90 days, then
deleted or fully anonymized.
8. How we protect your data
We use industry-standard security measures including encryption in transit
(TLS 1.2+), encryption at rest on Google's infrastructure, role-based access
controls, and Firebase security rules that restrict each user's reads and
writes to their own data. No system is perfectly secure — if a breach
affects your data, we will notify you as required by law.
9. Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:
- Access the personal information we hold about you;
- Correct inaccurate data;
- Delete your account and your data;
- Export your data in a portable format;
- Withdraw consent for optional processing;
- Object to or restrict certain types of processing;
-
Lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority (for example,
the UK ICO, a European DPA, or the Australian OAIC).
Most of these actions can be done from the Profile screen in the App. To
submit a formal request, email
privacy@strn.app. We respond within
30 days.
10. Children
STRN is not directed at children under 13 (or under 16 in the EEA/UK). If
you are under that age, please do not use the App. If you are a parent or
guardian and you believe your child has provided personal information to
us, contact privacy@strn.app and we
will delete it.
11. Sensitive data
Some of the data you can record in STRN — including heart rate, HRV, sleep,
bodyweight, and alcohol consumption — may be treated as sensitive health
information in your jurisdiction. We process this data solely to provide
the recovery and training features you have asked for, and only with your
consent. You can disconnect any wearable, remove any log entry, or delete
your account at any time.
12. Third-party links
The App may contain links to third-party services (for example, the Whoop
OAuth flow or the Hyrox results website). We are not responsible for those
services' privacy practices — please review their policies separately.
13. Changes to this Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make material
changes, we will notify you in the App and update the "Last updated" date
at the top. Continued use of the Service after changes become effective
means you accept the revised Policy.
