- The Company may process user content to the extent necessary to provide, store, back up, display, and transmit the Service and to carry out security checks, incident response, and quality improvement. The Company does not disclose user content externally or use it for advertising beyond this scope.
- After account closure or a deletion request, the Company may destroy or anonymise the original personal information and identifiable workout logs. Anonymised workout data may be used, in a form in which individuals cannot be re-identified, for statistics, service quality improvement, development of workout analysis algorithms, and model training.
