Privacy Policy — Simple Gym

Last updated: 21 June 2026

Simple Gym (“the app”, “we”, “us”) is a workout-tracking app published by King Digital. This policy explains what data the app collects, how it is used, and the choices you have. By using the app you agree to this policy.

1. Data we collect

• Account data. When you sign in with Apple or Google, we receive your email address and an authentication identifier so we can create and secure your account.
• Fitness data. The workouts, exercises, sets, reps, weights, body weight and body measurements you log. This is stored on your device and synced to our server so your data is available across your devices.
• Progress photos & custom-exercise images. These are stored only on your device, encrypted at rest, and are never uploaded to our server or shared with anyone. If you turn on the optional iCloud photo backup, a copy of your progress photos is saved to your own private iCloud (Apple’s iCloud, under your Apple ID) so they survive reinstalling the app and sync across your Apple devices — this is your iCloud, managed and encrypted by Apple, not our server. It is off by default.
• Apple Health (HealthKit). With your explicit permission, the app may read your body weight and write completed workouts to the Health app. This data is exchanged only with Apple Health on your device, under Apple’s control.
• Advertising & device data. If you use the free version, we show ads through Google AdMob. AdMob and Google may collect your advertising identifier and device/usage information to serve and measure ads (see “Advertising” below).

We do not use third-party analytics SDKs or third-party crash reporters. Diagnostics are handled by Apple’s on-device MetricKit only.

2. How we use your data

• To provide the app: create your account, store and sync your training history, and show your progress.
• To send local reminders and progress nudges (notifications you can turn off in iOS Settings).
• To show and measure ads in the free version.

3. Advertising

The free version of the app displays ads served by Google AdMob. Google acts as an independent controller of the advertising data it collects. Ads may be personalized (based on your advertising identifier and inferred interests) or non-personalized, depending on your choices:

• App Tracking Transparency (ATT). On iOS we ask whether the app may track you across other companies’ apps and websites. If you allow it, you may see personalized ads. If you decline, ads are non-personalized — the app works the same either way.
• EU/EEA & UK consent. If you are in the European Economic Area, the UK or Switzerland, we show Google’s consent form before any ads load, as required by GDPR. You can change your choice at any time.

4. How your data is shared

• Our server. Account and fitness data is stored on our own server (located in the EU) and is private to your account. We only ever return your own data to you; there is no cross-user access.
• Google AdMob. Advertising and device data is processed by Google to serve ads, as described above.
• We do not sell your personal data, and we do not share it with any other third parties for their own marketing.

5. Data retention & deletion

We keep your account and fitness data for as long as your account exists. You can delete your account from within the app at any time; this permanently removes your account and the fitness data stored on our server. Progress photos live only on your device and are removed when you delete them or uninstall the app — unless you turned on iCloud photo backup, in which case a copy stays in your private iCloud until you delete it (in the app, or from your iCloud storage in iOS Settings).

6. Your rights

Depending on where you live (including under the EU/UK GDPR), you have the right to access, correct, export or delete your personal data, and to object to or restrict certain processing. You can exercise these rights in the app or by contacting us (below).

7. Security

Account access uses token-based authentication. Progress photos and custom-exercise images are encrypted on your device. Data in transit is protected with HTTPS.

8. Children

The app is not directed to children under 13 (or the minimum age required in your country, e.g. 16 in parts of the EEA), and we do not knowingly collect their data.

9. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by the “Last updated” date above.
