Privacy Policy
Last updated August 25, 2026
Hol Fitness Journal ("the App") is operated by AsavaTech LLC ("we," "us"). The App is built to keep your data on your device: there are no accounts, we do not have a server that stores your personal data, and we do not use analytics, tracking, or advertising. Your workout, nutrition, and health data never leaves your device unless you export it yourself. Data leaves your device in only two situations: when you look up a food by search or barcode, and when the App checks for updates as it launches — described under "Nutrition Lookups" and "App Updates and Infrastructure" below.
Data Storage
- All of your workout, nutrition, and health-tracking data is stored locally on your device
- We have no account system and do not store your personal data on our servers
- You have full control and ownership of your data, and can export it at any time
Nutrition Lookups
- When you search for a food or scan a barcode, the search term or barcode number is sent over an encrypted connection to our nutrition lookup service, which forwards it to FatSecret (a third-party food database) to return matching results
- These requests are not tied to an account and do not include your name, email, or any personal identifier
- Our lookup service does not log your search terms, barcodes, or IP address. FatSecret receives only the search term or barcode — never your IP address, because these requests are proxied to FatSecret rather than sent directly from your device
- Like any internet request, these lookups pass through infrastructure providers — a content-delivery and security provider (Cloudflare) and our hosting provider — that process technical data such as your IP address to route and secure the service and prevent abuse. This is used only to deliver and protect the lookup; it is not used to identify or track you, and is subject to those providers' own privacy policies.
Health Data (Apple Health / Health Connect)
- With your permission, the app reads health data — steps, active and resting energy, walking/running distance, heart rate, workouts, and sleep — to show your activity alongside your workouts and nutrition
- With your permission, the app also writes data you log — completed workouts and the calories/macros of food you log — back to Apple Health / Health Connect
- This health data is used on your device only and is never transmitted to us or any third party. If you use the "Export for AI" feature, any health data you choose to include is placed on your device's share sheet for you to send — the app does not send it anywhere on its own.
Optional Backups
- You can export a backup file and save it to your own storage (Files, iCloud Drive, Google Drive, etc.) at any time
- Your device's standard iCloud or Google backup also includes this app's data
- These backups are controlled by you and subject to your cloud provider's privacy policy
Analytics and Tracking
- We do not use analytics, tracking, or advertising services
- We do not collect personal information for analytics or marketing, and we do not build a profile of you
App Updates and Infrastructure
- The App is built and delivered with Expo (EAS). When the App launches, it checks Expo's update service for over-the-air updates, which lets us ship fixes without waiting for an app-store review
- That check is a standard network request. It includes your device's IP address, the app version, the runtime version, the release channel, and a random installation identifier
- The installation identifier is a random value the update library creates the first time the App runs and then stores on your device. It is not your name, email, phone number, advertising identifier, or any hardware or device serial number, and it is not derived from them. It exists so the update service can deliver the correct update to your installation and stage gradual rollouts. Deleting and reinstalling the App discards it and generates a new one
- This information is processed by Expo under its own privacy policy. We do not use it to identify you, to build a profile of you, or to track you across other apps or websites. We receive no report of how you use the App from these checks — at most, aggregate counts of how many installations have received a given update
- The published app contains no analytics, advertising, crash-reporting, or tracking SDKs
Your Rights (GDPR / CCPA)
- Because we do not maintain accounts or store your personal data on our servers, most data-protection laws — including the EU/UK GDPR and California's CCPA/CPRA — impose minimal obligations on us, and there is generally no personal data for us to access, correct, or delete on your behalf.
