Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how the VeloPure iPhone and Apple Watch applications (collectively, the “App”) handle information. VeloPure is provided by the developer identified as the seller on the App Store listing (“we,” “us,” or “our”).
1. Privacy Summary
The current version of VeloPure has no user account, developer-operated server, cloud database, advertising SDK, third-party analytics SDK, or cross-app tracking. We do not receive your ride history, precise routes, Health data, purchase payment details, or device contacts.
Ride data is processed primarily on your devices. Information is sent to Apple services only when needed for features you choose, such as maps, Apple Health, Watch synchronization, Live Activities, In-App Purchases, system sharing, or saving a video to Photos.
2. Information Processed by the App
Location and route information
When you start a ride and grant permission, the App processes precise location coordinates, timestamps, altitude, speed, and horizontal and vertical accuracy. Background location may continue while an active ride is running so the App can record a complete route.
Ride and fitness information
The App calculates and stores ride start and end times, active duration, distance, current and average speed, maximum speed, elevation gain, pause intervals, and route points. These values are used to display the dashboard, map, history, details, Live Activity, and exported route video.
Preferences
Settings such as whether the screen may automatically lock are stored locally using Apple system storage.
Purchase information
Apple processes payments through StoreKit. The App can receive product information and signed transaction or entitlement status needed to complete, verify, and restore a purchase. We do not receive your full payment-card number or Apple Account password.
Communications
If you choose “Contact Us,” your email application opens. We receive only the information you voluntarily include in the email. Your email provider processes that communication under its own terms.
3. How Information Is Used
- Record, calculate, display, save, and delete rides and routes.
- Maintain an active outdoor workout and background ride recording.
- Display map content and a Live Activity.
- Write a cycling workout, cycling distance, pause events, and route to Apple Health when authorized.
- Transfer a completed ride from Apple Watch to the paired iPhone.
- Create a route animation video and present the system share sheet.
- Verify and restore an optional Pro purchase.
4. Storage and Transfers
On-device storage
Ride summaries and route points are stored locally using SwiftData on the device where they are recorded. The App does not upload this local database to a server operated by us.
Apple Watch synchronization
Completed Watch rides may be encoded into a file and transferred through Apple WatchConnectivity to your paired iPhone. The iPhone imports the ride into its local database and avoids duplicate ride identifiers. This is a device-to-device Apple service, not developer cloud synchronization.
Apple Health
With your authorization, the App writes outdoor cycling workouts, cycling distance, workout metadata, pause and resume events, and route locations to HealthKit. The current version requests no HealthKit read types. Health information stored in Apple Health is controlled through Apple’s Health app and system settings.
Maps, Live Activities, Photos, and sharing
MapKit may communicate with Apple to provide map tiles and related map services. Live Activity data is managed by iOS. Exported videos remain in temporary local storage until shared or removed by the system; when you select a share destination or save to Photos, the selected Apple or third-party service receives the content at your direction.
5. Third Parties
The App relies on Apple frameworks and services, including Core Location, MapKit, SwiftData, HealthKit, WatchConnectivity, ActivityKit, StoreKit, Photos, and the system share sheet. Apple’s handling of information is governed by Apple’s policies. A third-party app receives information only when you deliberately select it from the system share sheet or otherwise direct a transfer.
6. Tracking, Advertising, and Analytics
VeloPure does not currently contain advertising, sell personal information, use data brokers, track you across other companies’ apps or websites, or include a developer-operated analytics service.
7. Retention and Deletion
Local ride records remain until you delete a ride, erase the App’s data, or uninstall the App, subject to device backups and operating-system behavior. Deleting an iPhone record does not automatically delete a Watch copy, and deleting a Watch record does not automatically delete an iPhone copy. Records already written to Apple Health must be deleted separately in Apple Health.
8. Your Choices
- Control location, Health, Photos, and Live Activity permissions in Apple system settings.
- Pause or end a ride to stop active route recording, or revoke location access.
- View and delete local ride records inside the App.
- Manage or delete HealthKit records through Apple’s Health app.
- Choose whether and where an exported video is shared.
9. Security
VeloPure relies on iOS, watchOS, app sandboxing, device access controls, HealthKit authorization, and StoreKit transaction verification. No storage method is guaranteed to be completely secure. Protect your device with a passcode and keep its operating system current.
10. Children
The App is not directed to children under 13, or a higher minimum age required by local law. We do not knowingly operate a service that collects children’s personal information on our servers because the current App has no developer-operated data server.
11. International Use and Legal Rights
Because ride data is stored locally and we do not operate a ride-data server, we do not transfer your ride database internationally. Apple services may process information according to Apple’s policies and your region. Applicable privacy law may provide additional rights that cannot be limited by this Policy.
12. Changes to This Policy
We will update this Policy if data practices or App features change. The revised Policy will be included in the App with a new effective date. Material changes may also be highlighted in the App or release notes where appropriate.
13. Contact
For privacy questions or requests, contact support@pureride.app. Because we do not maintain user accounts or a ride-data server, we generally cannot access or remotely delete data stored only on your device.
