Who we are

Outpacer is an iPhone app for sprint interval training. The controller of your personal data is Marcus van Loef, trading as Outpacer, Van Maerlantpark 47, 2902 BR Capelle aan den IJssel, the Netherlands. Questions or requests: hello@getoutpacer.com.

What stays on your iPhone

These are stored only on your device, in the app. We don’t receive them.

• Workouts and results: sprint times, pace, distance, cadence, heart rate, how it felt and your notes.
• Location: your GPS route during a workout, to measure pace and distance and draw the map. Location is only used while a workout runs.
• Heart rate: from AirPods, Apple Watch (via Apple Health) or a Bluetooth heart rate monitor (chest strap or sports watch).
• Body data: height, weight and maximum heart rate, used for your heart rate zones and effort estimates.
• Motion: steps and cadence from your iPhone’s motion sensor, and distance for indoor workouts.
• Photos: pictures you take in the app for your story. They are saved with the workout and only leave your phone when you share them yourself.

Apple Health

With your permission, Outpacer reads heart rate, active energy and walking and running distance, and saves your workouts (including the route) to Apple Health. You can change this at any time in the Health app. Data from Apple Health is never used for advertising or shared with anyone.

No account needed

Outpacer doesn’t use accounts. Your profile (first name, date of birth, gender, height, weight, experience, weekly goal and maximum heart rate) is stored only on your iPhone and used for things like your greeting, recommended workouts and heart rate zones. We don’t receive it. If we add optional accounts later, we’ll update this policy first and explain what an account stores.

Weather and place names

To show the weather of a workout (temperature, humidity and wind), the app sends a location rounded to about 1 km, together with the date and hour, to Apple Weather (WeatherKit, provided by Apple). The place name (such as “Rotterdam”) comes from Apple Maps. Neither receives your name or account. Apple’s privacy policy applies to these requests: apple.com/legal/privacy.

Purchases

Outpacer Pro is sold through Apple. Apple handles payment; we never see your payment details or who you are. The app only checks with Apple whether your subscription is active.

Feedback by email

If you send feedback from the app (Settings → Send feedback) or email us, we receive your email address and what you write, plus the app version, iOS version and iPhone model that the app adds under your message so we can look into problems. We use this only to reply and to improve Outpacer, and delete it when it’s no longer needed. Nothing is sent unless you send the email yourself.

What we don’t do

• No advertising and no ad or tracking SDKs.
• No selling or renting of your data.
• No tracking across other apps or websites.

Legal basis

Health, location, motion and camera data are used only on your iPhone, with the permission you give in iOS, and you can withdraw it at any time in Settings. Photos you pick from your library for a story stay on your iPhone too; Outpacer only sees the photos you choose. The rounded location sent for weather is needed to show your workout’s conditions.

How long data is kept

Data on your iPhone stays until you delete the workout or the app. We don’t keep copies.

Your rights

Under the GDPR you can ask to access, correct, delete or export your data, and object to or restrict its processing. Because your data stays on your iPhone, you control it there: delete a workout in the app, or delete the app to remove everything. For questions, email hello@getoutpacer.com. You can also file a complaint with the Dutch data protection authority, the Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens.

Children

Outpacer is meant for people aged 16 and over.

Changes

If we change this policy, we’ll update the date above and, for important changes, let you know in the app.
