Privacy
This page is a plain-English summary of how the BusyBodies app handles your data. The full privacy policy is published on our website. Read the privacy policy.
What BusyBodies stores
Your account: the email address you sign in with, and the name you gave us. Your coaching data: the habits you track and complete, your workouts and the sets you log, your weekly check-ins and reflections, your nutrition entries, and the programs a coach builds for you.
We also store the date of birth you give when you sign up, which is checked against the minimum age. Your setup answers are stored too, including your goals, experience, schedule and equipment, your work and home commitments, travel and stress, any notes you add, and anything you choose to tell us about injuries, health, sleep or diet. So are your sex, if you chose to answer, your time zone, so that a day in the app is your day, and the messages you send and receive in the app.
Who can see it
You can see your own data. A coach can see the data of the clients they are linked to, and no one else’s. This is enforced by the database itself rather than by the app: every table carries rules that decide, per row, who is allowed to read it.
BusyBodies does not sell your data, does not use it for advertising, and does not run third-party analytics or tracking in this application.
Email we send you
Account emails only: a link to confirm your address when you sign up, a link to reset your password when you ask for one, and a coach’s invitation if one invited you. There are no marketing emails, and BusyBodies sends no push notifications: nothing is sent to your phone from our servers. What the app calls notifications appear inside the app and go nowhere else.
The one exception is the BusyBodies iPhone app. If you allow notifications there, your phone itself can show an alert the app scheduled on it, such as when a rest timer ends. Nothing about that alert is sent to us or to anyone else.
Deleting your data
You can delete your account from your account page. Deleting it removes your account and the data attached to it permanently: check-ins, workouts, habits, reflections, nutrition entries and progress. It cannot be undone, and there is no recovery afterwards.
Content a coach created (their exercise library, habit templates, lessons and program templates) belongs to them and stays with them.
