Setloop Privacy Policy
Summary
Setloop keeps your workout data on your watch and your phone. The app has no account, no server, no ads and no analytics. We (the developer) do not receive, sell or share your data.
Data that the app uses
| Data | Why the app uses it |
|---|---|
| Heart rate | The app shows your heart rate during a workout and saves the average and maximum for each workout and each set. It reads heart rate from the watch sensor through Health Services, or from a Bluetooth heart rate strap that you pair in the app. |
| Calories | Health Services estimates the calories of a workout. The app shows and saves this value. |
| Workout history | The start time, duration, routine name, and for each set the exercise, repetitions, weight, set time and rest time. |
| Routines and settings | The routines that you make in the phone app, your maximum heart rate setting and the screen layout. |
| Bluetooth sensors | The name and address of the Bluetooth sensors that you save, so that the app can connect to them again. Sensors send heart rate, cadence, speed and power. |
The app uses Bluetooth scans only to find sensors. It does not use Bluetooth or any other source to find your location. On Android 11 and earlier, Android requires the location permission for a Bluetooth scan. The app does not read your location.
The app does not collect your name, email address, contacts, photos or device identifiers.
Where the data goes
- Your watch and phone. The data is stored in the app storage on your devices. Other apps cannot read it.
- Between your watch and phone. The apps sync workouts, routines and settings with the Wear OS Data Layer of Google Play services. When Bluetooth is connected, the data goes directly over an encrypted Bluetooth connection. When Bluetooth is not available, Google Play services sends the data through Google servers with end-to-end encryption. Only the Setloop app on your own devices can read it.
- Android backup. If you turned on backup in your device settings, Android can include the app data in your Google backup. Google controls this backup under the Google Privacy Policy. You can turn it off in your device settings.
The app does not send data to the developer or to any other third party. The app does not use health data for advertising, and it does not sell or transfer health data.
Retention and deletion
- The app keeps your workouts until you delete them.
- If you delete a workout in the app, the app deletes it on both the watch and the phone.
- If you uninstall the app or clear its storage, Android deletes all app data on that device.
- The developer holds no copy of your data, so there is no data on our side to delete.
Permissions
- Heart rate and body sensors: heart rate during a workout.
- Physical activity: workout data from Health Services.
- Nearby devices (Bluetooth): connection to the sensors that you pair.
- Notifications: the ongoing workout notification.
- Vibration and wake lock: interval alerts at the correct time while the screen is off.
You can remove a permission at any time in your device settings. Some features then stop.
Children
The app is not directed at children under 13.
