Privacy Policy

Who we are (data controller)

VertiRoo is operated by its owner ("we", "us"). For any privacy question, or to exercise your rights, contact us at support@vertiroo.app. We have not appointed a Data Protection Officer, as we are not required to.

Summary

• We do not collect your name, email, or precise identity in this version of the app.
• We do not use IDFA and do not track you across other apps or websites. No App Tracking Transparency prompt is shown, and no data is used for advertising.
• Your training logs and profile are stored locally on your device.
• We collect limited product-usage analytics (not linked to your identity) and crash reports to improve the app. You can turn analytics off in Settings at any time.
• Subscriptions are billed by Apple; we never see or store your payment details.

Information stored on your device

VertiRoo is offline-first. The following is stored locally on your device and is not transmitted to us:

• Your profile: athlete level, available equipment, unit preferences, body weight, baseline vertical jump, and training goals.
• Your training logs: sessions, exercises, sets, notes, readiness, and vertical-jump measurements.

You can remove this data at any time by deleting the app, which erases all locally stored information.

What we collect, why, and our legal basis

Under the EU/UK GDPR, we rely on the following legal bases:

• Product analytics. To understand how the app is used and improve it. We collect product events — such as starting or completing a training session, logging a vertical jump, achieving a personal record, advancing a phase, and viewing or dismissing the subscription screen — together with general context such as athlete level, current phase, equipment count, days since install, and whether you have an active subscription. These events are tied to a randomly generated identifier, not to your name, email, or Apple ID, and not to IDFA. We do not send your name, email, free-text notes, or exact body weight to analytics. Legal basis: your consent, which you give by leaving analytics enabled and can withdraw any time under Settings → Privacy → Share Anonymous Analytics. Withdrawing does not affect processing carried out before you withdrew.
• Crash & error reporting. To detect and fix crashes and stability issues. These reports do not include personal information, your IP address, screenshots, or the contents of your training logs. Legal basis: our legitimate interest in keeping the app secure and stable.
• Subscriptions. To provide and manage your premium subscription and entitlement status using an anonymous identifier. Legal basis: performance of our contract with you. Payment is processed entirely by Apple — we never receive or store your payment details.

Note: analytics tied to a device identifier may be considered "pseudonymous" rather than fully anonymous under the GDPR, so we treat it as personal data and give you the rights described below.

Third-party providers

We do not sell your data or use it for advertising. We rely on a few trusted providers to run product analytics, crash reporting, and subscriptions, plus Apple for App Store billing. They only process data on our behalf and are required to protect it. Some may process data outside your country, under appropriate legal safeguards.

How long we keep data

Your training data stays on your device until you delete it or remove the app. Product analytics and crash reports are retained only as long as needed for the purposes above and then deleted or aggregated.

Your privacy rights

Under the GDPR (and similar laws) you have the right to access, correct, delete, restrict, or object to our processing of your personal data, to data portability, and to withdraw consent at any time. Because your training data stays on your device, you can exercise most of these directly — disable analytics in Settings, and delete all data by removing the app. For anything else, email us at support@vertiroo.app and we will respond within one month. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection supervisory authority.

We do not carry out automated decision-making or profiling that produces legal or similarly significant effects.

California privacy rights (CCPA/CPRA)

We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising, as those terms are defined under the CCPA/CPRA. The categories of personal information we collect are limited to identifiers (an anonymous analytics/subscription identifier) and internet or usage activity (product-usage and crash data), used only to operate and improve the app. California residents have the right to know, delete, and correct personal information, and not to be discriminated against for exercising these rights. Contact us at the email above to make a request.

Children's privacy

VertiRoo is a general-audience app and is not directed to children under 13 (or the minimum age of digital consent in your country). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us data, contact us and we will delete it.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy as the app evolves — for example, if we introduce optional accounts or cloud sync. Material changes will be reflected by updating the effective date above.
