PUSHBURN
Privacy Policy
Effective Date: January 1, 2025
Last Updated: November 26, 2025
1. Introduction
Welcome to PUSHBURN ("we," "our," or "us"). We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains our practices regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of information for our PUSHBURN mobile application (the "App").
The simple truth: PUSHBURN does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data to external servers. All your workout information stays on your device. HealthKit data is read locally and never uploaded.
2. Information We Do NOT Collect
PUSHBURN is designed with your privacy in mind. We do not collect or transmit:
- Personal identification information (name, email, phone number)
- Location data
- Device identifiers
- Usage analytics
- Workout or exercise data
- IP addresses
- Cookies or tracking technologies
Note on HealthKit: With your permission, PUSHBURN reads health data from Apple HealthKit (steps, distance, calories, flights climbed). This data is only displayed within the app and never leaves your device or is transmitted to any server.
3. How PUSHBURN Works
PUSHBURN operates entirely on your device:
- Local Storage Only: All your custom workouts, timers, and settings are stored locally on your device using iOS's built-in storage systems.
- No Internet Required: The core app works completely offline. No internet connection is needed for workout tracking.
- No Account Required: You don't need to create an account or provide any personal information to use PUSHBURN.
- No Cloud Sync: Your data is never uploaded to any cloud service or external server.
- HealthKit Integration: With your permission, PUSHBURN can read activity data (steps, distance, calories burned, flights climbed) from Apple Health to display your daily stats. This data is read directly from HealthKit and displayed locally — it is never uploaded, stored on our servers, or shared with anyone.
4. Optional Features
4.1 Notifications
If you choose to enable notifications, PUSHBURN can send you alerts when timer segments complete. These notifications are generated entirely on your device and do not involve any data transmission to external servers.
4.2 Name Personalization
You may optionally enter a name for personalization within the app. This name is stored only on your device and is never transmitted elsewhere.
4.3 Apple HealthKit
PUSHBURN can optionally connect to Apple HealthKit to display your daily activity metrics including steps, distance walked/run, active calories burned, and flights climbed. This feature requires your explicit permission.
- HealthKit data is read-only and displayed within the app
- No HealthKit data is stored by PUSHBURN beyond the current session
- No HealthKit data is transmitted to external servers
- You can revoke HealthKit access at any time in your device's Settings → Privacy & Security → Health → PUSHBURN
5. Third-Party Services
PUSHBURN does not integrate with, use, or rely on any third-party services that collect your data, including:
- Analytics services
- Advertising networks
- Social media platforms
- Cloud storage providers
- Crash reporting tools
The only external integration is Apple HealthKit, which is a secure, on-device framework provided by Apple. No data flows through our servers.
6. Data Security
Since all data remains on your device, security is managed by your device's built-in security features. We recommend:
- Using a device passcode or biometric lock
- Keeping your device's operating system updated
- Following general device security best practices
HealthKit data is protected by Apple's security framework and requires your explicit authorization before PUSHBURN can access it.
7. Children's Privacy
PUSHBURN is suitable for users of all ages. Since we don't collect any personal information, there are no special provisions needed for children under 13. Parents can feel confident that their children's privacy is protected when using PUSHBURN.
8. Data Deletion
To delete all PUSHBURN data:
- Simply uninstall the app from your device
- All locally stored workout data will be permanently removed
- There is no data to delete from our servers because we don't have any
To revoke HealthKit permissions, go to Settings → Privacy & Security → Health → PUSHBURN and toggle off the permissions you wish to revoke.
9. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected in the "Last Updated" date at the top of this policy. We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically.
10. Your Rights
Since PUSHBURN doesn't collect any personal data, traditional data rights (access, correction, deletion, portability) don't apply. You have complete control over your data because it never leaves your device.
