Fat Cat Apps Fat Cat Apps «Podhod» is a strength training diary. The short version of this policy: the app is fully offline — your data is stored only on your device and never leaves it.
Heart rate. If you connect a heart-rate monitor (a Bluetooth heart-rate sensor, standard Heart Rate profile), the app records your heart rate during a workout and stores it only in the local database on your device — together with the workout entry. The “heart rate × sets” report shows your own values and is for reference only — it is not medical advice. Heart-rate data is deleted together with the workout or with the app. With sync enabled, heart rate is sent to the server only with your explicit consent — see section 3.
Workout sync is on by default and can be turned off any time. For the “My life” summaries in Fat Cat apps, the app may send to our server api.fatcatss.ru facts about your workouts: date, duration, exercises (name, muscle group), sets (weight, reps), calculated tonnage. The sync is tied to your park account and visible only to you. If you do not want it — turn it off in Settings: new workouts will no longer be sent, and already-sent data will be deleted from the server.
Heart rate is synced only with your explicit consent — the app asks for it at first launch (and again when you enable the option, if consent was not given). You can withdraw consent any time in Settings: syncing stops and already-sent heart-rate data is deleted from the server.
There are no ads, analytics systems or telemetry in the app; no update checks. If future versions introduce new network features, this policy will be extended before that update ships.
App permissions: vibration (haptic feedback); Bluetooth — solely to find and connect your heart-rate monitor when you tap to do so; on Android 11 and below, location permission is additionally requested for device discovery (an Android requirement for Bluetooth scanning; your location is not determined and not stored); and local notifications — membership payment reminders (only if you enable them). No other permissions are requested: the camera, microphone, contacts and files are never used.
The app does not collect personal data of any users, including children: there is no data processing as such — everything is stored on the device only.
If the set of features changes (cloud sync, a subscription or health data processing appear), this policy will be extended and the date above will change. Significant changes will be announced on the app page.
