Privacy policy

Spartan Punching fitness application is dedicated to safeguarding the privacy of our users while offering personalized and effective workout plans. In line with this commitment, our privacy policy outlines the sensitive user data we access, how it is used, and the measures in place to protect it.
The app collects a range of sensitive data, including physical activity metrics, health metrics such as blood pressure and oxygen saturation, body temperature, body fat percentage, and, where applicable, menstrual cycle information. This data is gathered directly from user inputs and through integration with Google Fit. The primary use of this data is to tailor workout plans to individual user needs, monitor safety during exercises, and track fitness progress. It is essential to emphasize that this sensitive data is not shared with third parties, except as required for the app’s functionality or mandated by law.
In ensuring transparency and user trust, our privacy policy is consistent with the disclosures in our Play Store data safety labels. This alignment demonstrates our commitment to being upfront about our data practices.
Furthermore, we are dedicated to using the collected data solely for the purpose of enhancing the application’s functionality and features. This includes personalizing workout plans and improving user experience. We understand the importance of consent in data handling; therefore, we obtain explicit user consent before accessing any sensitive data. Users are thoroughly informed about the types of data we collect and the reasons for their collection, ensuring they provide informed consent.
The security of user data, especially for Health Connect users, is paramount. We have implemented stringent security measures to protect against unauthorized or unlawful access, destruction, loss, alteration, or disclosure. These measures include encryption, secure data storage practices, and regular security audits.
Lastly, we respect the users’ right to control their data. Users can delete their data at any time either directly through the app settings or by contacting our support team. Upon such requests, we ensure the complete and secure erasure of all their data from our systems.
Overall, our privacy policy reflects a deep commitment to user privacy, data security, and transparency, complying with legal standards and best practices in data handling and protection.

Google Marketing Services

On our apps we use the marketing and re-marketing services of Google Admob, which allows us to display advertisements in a more targeted manner in order to present advertisements of interest to users.In integrating with Google’s ad services, we share certain information with Google, such as the name of the app and a unique identifier for advertising.Google uses the information shared by apps to deliver their services, maintain and improve them, develop new services, measure the effectiveness of advertising, protect against fraud and abuse, and personalize content and ads you see on Google and on our apps.You can find more information about how Google process data, you can visit their Privacy Policy https://policies.google.com/privacy, and for more information about how your information is specifically used for advertising, you can visit Google’s advertising page https://policies.google.com/technologies/ads.

Facebook Marketing Services

We use the “visitor action pixels” from Facebook Inc. (Menlo Park, California) on our website so that user behavior can be tracked after users have been redirected to the provider’s website by clicking on a Facebook ad. This enables us to measure the effectiveness of Facebook ads for statistical and market research purposes. The data collected in this way is anonymous to us, i.e. we do not see the personal data of individual users. However, this data is stored and processed by Facebook, which is why we are informing you, based on our knowledge of the situation. Facebook may link this information to your Facebook account and also use it for its own promotional purposes, in accordance with Facebook’s Data Usage Policy https://www.facebook.com/about/privacy/. You can allow Facebook and its partners to place ads on and off Facebook. A cookie may also be stored on your computer for these purposes. You can object to the collection of your data by Facebook pixel, or to the use of your data for the purpose of displaying Facebook ads by contacting the following address: https://www.facebook.com/settings?tab=ads.
We also use Facebook’s Software Development Kit (SDK) within our apps, in order to link various Facebook services with our apps. For example, this enables users to be able to use the Facebook SDK to share content from our apps within their Facebook timeline or to send messages to other Facebook users. Further information about the Facebook SDK within iOS can be found here: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/ios. For Android, please refer to: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/android. Facebook App Events: We use the Facebook App Events service though the Facebook SDK to track the reach of our advertising campaigns and the use of the Facebook SDK. Facebook merely provides us with an aggregated analysis of user behavior with our app. We have no influence beyond that on the information that will be processed through App Events by Facebook. In our app settings, you can opt out of using App Events for these purposes.
Facebook is certified under the Privacy Shield Agreement and thus guarantees compliance with European data protection legislation (https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt0000000GnywAAC&status=Active). The legal basis for this processing is Art. 6 paragraph 1 sentence 1 letter b and f GDPR. If you do not wish to be tracked by Facebook in the future, you can opt out at any time by writing an email to support@diamondappgroup.com.

Facebook Custom Audience

As part of usage-based online advertising, the Custom Audience product from Facebook (Facebook Custom Audience 1601 S. California Avenue, Palo Alto, CA, 94304) is also used on the website. Generally speaking, a non-reversible and non-personal checksum (hash value) is generated from your usage data which can be sent to Facebook for analysis and marketing purposes. In doing so, a tracking pixel from Facebook is set on our website. This collects information on your activity on the website (such as surfing behavior, subpages visited, etc.). Your IP address is stored and used to direct geographically-based advertising.
You have the option of objecting to targeting by Facebook using the link (https://www.facebook.com/ads/website_custom_audiences).
You can learn more about the purpose and scope of data collection and further processing and utilization of data, as well as privacy settings, using the Facebook's privacy policy (https://www.facebook.com/policy.php).

Firebase by Google

We use the Firebase service from Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland) in order to derive application behavioral analytics. We use that information to see how users interact with our website and app.
Firebase is part of the Google Cloud Platform and offers numerous services for developers. A list can be found here: https://firebase.google.com/terms/. Some Firebase services process personal data. In most cases, the personal data is limited to so-called "instance IDs", which are provided with a time stamp. These "Instance IDs" assigned by Firebase are unique and thus allow the linking of different events or processes. This data does not represent personally identifiable information for us, nor do we make any efforts to personalize it subsequently. We process these aggregated data to analyze and optimize usage behavior, for example by evaluating crash reports.
Currently, we use the following Firebase services:
Google Analytics for Firebase: Google Analytics uses the data to provide analytics and attribution information. The precise information collected can vary by the device and environment. You can find more information via this link: https://support.google.com/firebase/answer/6318039. Google Analytics retains ID-associated data for 60 days, and retains aggregate reporting and campaign data without automatic expiration, unless the Firebase customer changes their retention preference in their Analytics settings or deletes their project. For Analytics for Firebase, Google uses not only the "Instance ID" described above, but also the advertising ID of the end device. You can restrict the use of the advertising ID in the device settings of your mobile device. For Android: Settings > Google > Ads > Reset Ad ID For iOS: Settings > Privacy > Advertising > No ad tracking
Firebase Remote Config: Remote Config uses Instance IDs to select configuration values to return to end-user devices. Firebase retains Instance IDs until the Firebase customer makes an API call to delete the ID. After the call, data is removed from live and backup systems within 180 days.
Firebase Dynamic Links: Dynamic Links uses device specs on iOS to open newly-installed apps to a specific page or context. Dynamic Links only stores device specs temporarily, to provide the service.
Firebase Cloud Messaging: Firebase Cloud Messaging is used to transmit push messages or so-called in-app messages (messages that are only displayed within the respective app). A pseudonymized push reference is assigned to the mobile device, which serves as a target for the push messages or in-app messages. The push messages can be deactivated and reactivated at any time in the settings of the mobile device. Firebase Cloud Messaging uses Instance IDs to determine which devices to deliver messages to. Firebase retains Instance IDs until the Firebase customer makes an API call to delete the ID. After the call, data is removed from live and backup systems within 180 days.
Firebase will use this information on our behalf for the above mentioned reasons.
The legal basis for the use of this service is Art. 6 paragraph 1 sentence 1 letter f GDPR. Google is certified under the Privacy Shield Agreement and thus guarantees compliance with European data protection legislation http://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active

Transfer of data to third parties

We only pass your personal data on to third parties if:
  • You Have Given Your Explicit Consent To This,
  • Forwarding Data Is Necessary For The Assertion, Exercise Or Defense Of Legal Claims And There Is No Reason To Assume You Have An Overriding Legitimate Interest In Your Data Not Being Passed On,
  • In The Event That We Have A Legal Obligation To Forward Data, And
  • This Is Legally Permissible And Required For The Performance Of The Contractual Relationship With You
In the case of data transfer outside the European Union, the high European level of data protection essentially does not exist. It may be the case with a transfer that an EU Commission adequacy decision in accordance with Article 45 (1) (3) GDPR is not currently in place. This means the EU Commission has not yet decided that the level of data protection in the respective country corresponds to the level of protection in the European Union based on the GDPR. Consequently, we have put the appropriate guarantees referred to above in place. Potential risks, which cannot be ruled out completely in connection with data transfer, are in particular:

  • Your Personal Data Could Be Processed Over And Above The Intended Purpose.
  • Moreover, There Is A Possibility That You May Not Be Able To Exercise Your Rights In Relation To Data Protection, For Example Your Right Of Access, To Rectification, Erasure Or Data Portability, On A Consistent Basis And Enforce These.
  • It May Also Be Highly Likely That Data Is Processed Incorrectly And In Quantitative And Qualitative Terms, The Protection Of Personal Data Fails To Meet The Requirements Of The GDPR In Full.
