Privacy Policy
Your privacy matters to us. This Privacy Policy explains what information TENACE (the “App”) and tenace.fit (the “Website”) collect, how that information is used, and the choices you have. We have written this policy to be as clear and plain as possible — no deliberate legal fog.
1. Who We Are
TENACE (published on the Apple App Store and Google Play as “Tenace Training”) is developed and operated by:
Gustavo Medeiros Souza
Individual developer
Email: contact@tenace.fit
Website: https://tenace.fit
For the purposes of applicable data protection law, Gustavo Medeiros Souza is the data controller for any personal data collected through the Website (described below). The App itself does not transmit personal data to us — see Section 2b for details.
2. Data We Collect
a) Email address — Website sign-ups only
If you voluntarily submit your email address through the launch notification sign-up form on the Website, we collect and store that email address. This is the only personal information we collect through the Website. Providing your email is entirely optional — you can use the App without ever visiting the Website or submitting your email.
Email submissions are processed via Formspree, a third-party form service. By submitting your email, you also agree to Formspree's privacy policy. We do not store your email on our own servers — it is held by Formspree and accessible to us through their dashboard.
b) Workout & body data — stored locally on your device only
All workout logs, exercise sets, body measurements, programs, plans, training history, and any other fitness data you enter into the App are stored exclusively on your device using a local SQLite database.
This data:
- Never leaves your phone. We do not transmit it to our servers.
- We never see it. We have no access to your workout or body data, ever.
- Is not collected, stored, or processed by us. It exists only on the device you control.
- Is deleted when you uninstall the App, or when you use the “Erase All Data” option in the App's Settings screen.
This is a deliberate design choice, not a limitation. We believe your personal health and training data belongs to you alone.
c) Automatically collected technical data
When you use the App, your device's operating system may collect standard technical information (such as crash reports or performance diagnostics) and share it with Apple or Google in accordance with the platform's own privacy policy. This data is collected by the platform, not by us, and is used to improve overall system performance. We receive only aggregated, anonymised crash diagnostics through App Store Connect and Google Play Console, which contain no personally identifiable information.
3. How We Use Your Email
If you sign up for launch notifications, your email address will be used for one purpose only: to send you a single email notifying you when Tenace Training becomes available on the App Store and/or Google Play.
We will never:
- Sell, rent, or share your email address with any third party for marketing purposes;
- Add you to any newsletter or recurring marketing list without your separate, explicit consent;
- Use your email for any purpose other than the one stated above.
After the launch notification has been sent, we will either delete your email or retain it only if you have separately opted in to receive further communications.
4. Cookies & Analytics
The Website currently uses no cookies, no tracking pixels, and no third-party analytics services (such as Google Analytics). We do not track your browsing behaviour on tenace.fit.
If this changes in the future — for example, if we add privacy-respecting analytics to understand general traffic patterns — we will update this policy before doing so and, where required by law, obtain your consent.
5. Data Retention
We retain your email address only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected (sending the launch notification), or until you request deletion, whichever comes first.
Once the launch notification has been sent, we will delete email addresses from our records within 30 days unless you have separately opted in to receive further communications.
To request earlier deletion of your email address, simply email us at contact@tenace.fit with the subject line “Delete my data” and we will process your request within 30 days.
6. Your Rights
Regardless of where you are located, you have the right to:
- Access — request a copy of the personal data we hold about you;
- Correction — request that we correct inaccurate personal data;
- Deletion — request that we delete your personal data (the “right to be forgotten”);
- Objection — object to our processing of your personal data;
- Portability — request that your data be provided to you in a portable format;
- Withdrawal of consent — withdraw consent at any time where processing is based on consent, without affecting the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal.
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at contact@tenace.fit. We will respond within 30 days. There is no charge for making a request.
Please note: because your in-app workout and body data is stored solely on your device and never transmitted to us, we have no ability to access, correct, export, or delete it on your behalf. You retain full control over that data at all times through the App's own settings.
7. GDPR — For Residents of the European Economic Area
If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, the following additional provisions apply to you under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) or equivalent legislation.
Lawful basis for processing: The sole personal data we collect (your email address) is processed on the basis of your consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR), which you provide by voluntarily submitting the sign-up form. You may withdraw this consent at any time by contacting us at contact@tenace.fit. Withdrawal of consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.
International data transfers: Your email address is processed by Formspree, which may store data on servers located outside the EEA. Formspree maintains appropriate safeguards for international data transfers. For details, please refer to Formspree's Privacy Policy.
Right to lodge a complaint: If you believe our processing of your personal data infringes applicable data protection law, you have the right to lodge a complaint with your local supervisory authority (e.g., your national Data Protection Authority).
8. Children's Privacy
The App and Website are not directed at children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child under 13 has provided us with their email address, please contact us at contact@tenace.fit and we will promptly delete that information.
For users aged 13–17, we encourage parental involvement in their use of the App. Please review these Terms together with any minors in your care.
9. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, the App's features, or applicable law. When we make changes, we will update the “Last updated” date at the top of this page.
For material changes — particularly those that affect how we use your email address — we will make reasonable efforts to notify you (for example, by sending an email if we have your address, or by posting a prominent notice on the Website) before the changes take effect.
We encourage you to review this policy periodically. Your continued use of the Website or App after the effective date of changes constitutes your acceptance of the revised policy.
