Privacy Policy

Effective date: 13 November 2026

ArcuGym is an iPhone and Apple Watch workout companion provided by Tomas Ariel Felder. Contact: tomasarielfelder@gmail.com.

Local Workouts and Optional Connections

Workout plans, history, effort ratings (RPE), notes, and video-status records are stored locally on your iPhone. The Watch stores the active workout and queued sync updates. ArcuGym does not operate a separate server for your workout history and does not require a separate ArcuGym account. A bundled sample plan is available without Google sign-in.

Google Services

If you connect Google, ArcuGym uses your authorization to list coach-owned Sheets, import the week you select, and save notes or RPE values you choose to enter in the connected sheet. The preset coach is Lucas Arcusin. Google Photos access supports an app-created coach-video album, uploads, availability checks, and removing app-created videos from that album. This does not delete videos from your entire Google Photos library.

Google authorization tokens are stored in the iPhone Keychain. Your Google password is entered through Google’s sign-in flow, not stored by ArcuGym. Disconnect Google in ArcuGym Settings and revoke its access in your Google Account to stop future authorized access. Existing data stored in Google services remains there until you change or delete it in those services. Google handles data under its own privacy terms.

Apple Health and Apple Watch

With permission, ArcuGym reads workout records and workout metrics such as heart rate, active and resting energy, steps, elapsed time, and supported effort information. It can record and save strength workouts using Apple Watch. Health summaries and compact chart data are stored locally and synced between your paired devices. Live Activities may show workout status and selected metrics on your Lock Screen and Dynamic Island.

Health data is not used for advertising, marketing, or data brokerage, and is not automatically uploaded to Google Sheets. If you explicitly share a workout summary with your coach, that message may include a concise health summary. Change Health access in Apple’s Health/Settings apps at any time. ArcuGym is a fitness companion, not a medical diagnostic or treatment service.

Camera, Microphone, and Coach Videos

When you choose to record a coach video, ArcuGym uses the iPhone camera and microphone and saves the finished video to Apple Photos. With Photos permission it can read that video for upload to your connected Google Photos coach album. Temporary capture and upload files may be kept in app storage while needed for recording or retrying an upload. Manage videos from Settings → Coach Videos. Apple’s permission and deletion prompts apply.

WhatsApp and Sharing

The app contains the coach’s preset contact details. Automatically opening WhatsApp after a workout is off by default. If enabled, or if you manually choose to share, ArcuGym opens a prefilled message in WhatsApp; you still review it and tap Send there. WhatsApp then processes your message under its own terms. Only share workout or health details you want your coach to receive.

Tracking, Advertising, and Website Access

ArcuGym does not use advertising, analytics, or cross-app tracking SDKs and does not sell personal data. This support website has no forms, advertising, or analytics scripts. Its hosting provider may process ordinary request and security logs, such as IP address, as part of delivering and protecting the website. If you email support, your email address, message, and attachments are handled to respond to your request. Please do not send passwords or private health records.

Your Choices, Retention, and Deletion

• Delete local workout records from History. They remain until you delete them or remove the app’s local data.
• Manage local videos and coach-album copies in Coach Videos. Removing a record from ArcuGym is not the same as deleting the underlying media.
• Delete or edit Google Sheet entries in Google Sheets and Google Photos library items in Google Photos.
• Delete Apple Photos videos or Apple Health workouts in Apple’s apps when you want to remove those copies.
• Disconnect Google and revoke its authorization; change camera, microphone, Photos, and Health permissions in Apple’s settings.
• Device backups, Google services, Apple services, and WhatsApp may retain independent copies under their own settings and policies. Deleting ArcuGym history does not erase those copies.

For questions or requests concerning information you sent to support, email the contact above. Do not send your Google credentials. ArcuGym is intended for general fitness use and is not specifically directed to children.
