1. About this policy
This Privacy Policy explains how BeatYourBest collects, uses, stores, and protects personal information when you use the app, website, and related services.
2. Information we may collect
BeatYourBest may collect information you provide, such as your name, email address, account details, runner profile information, child profile information, run records, sprint times, distances, personal bests, goals, notes, and support messages.
3. Providing information
Some information is necessary for BeatYourBest features to operate correctly. You may choose not to provide certain information, but some features of the app may then be unavailable.
4. Children and family profiles
BeatYourBest is designed for parent-managed or authorised adult-managed runner profiles and is not intended for children to independently create accounts without parental involvement where such consent is required by law.
5. How we use information
We use information to provide and improve BeatYourBest, create and manage runner profiles, track progress, display PB history, enable profile sharing where requested, respond to support messages, manage early access requests, and keep the app secure.
6. Sharing information
BeatYourBest is not designed as a public social media platform. Runner profiles are private by default unless you choose to share them using app features.
7. Service providers
We may use trusted service providers to help operate the app, including hosting, authentication, cloud sync, analytics, app store services, email, and support tools. These providers may process information only as needed to provide those services.
8. Analytics and app improvement
We may use limited analytics to understand app performance, fix issues, and improve features. Where possible, we use aggregated or de-identified information rather than information that directly identifies you.
9. Website usage information
The BeatYourBest website may use cookies, basic analytics, or similar technologies to understand website usage, improve performance, and support app-related services.
10. Notifications
If you enable notifications, BeatYourBest may send updates about runs, PBs, shared profiles, app features, or launch information. You can manage notification settings through your device or app settings.
11. Data security
We take reasonable steps to protect personal information from misuse, interference, loss, unauthorised access, modification, or disclosure. No online service can guarantee complete security, so you should also keep your account details safe.
12. Data retention
We keep personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary to provide BeatYourBest services, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, or maintain app security and operations.
13. Access, correction, and deletion
You may request access to or correction of personal information associated with your account. When reasonably possible, we will delete or de-identify personal information associated with your account after receiving a valid deletion request, unless we are required to retain certain information by law or for legitimate operational reasons.
14. Overseas services
Some service providers may store or process information outside your country. Where this occurs, we take reasonable steps to use providers with appropriate privacy and security practices.
15. Third-party links and services
BeatYourBest may contain links to third-party websites or services. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of external services.
16. Jurisdiction
BeatYourBest aims to handle personal information in accordance with applicable privacy laws, including the Australian Privacy Principles where applicable.
17. Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If changes are significant, we will take reasonable steps to make the updated policy available.
