Artevus Technologies (Private) Limited ("Artevus", "we", "us", "our") operates MapStride, a fitness tracking mobile application available on the Apple App Store and Google Play Store (the "App" or "Service").

This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and share information in connection with MapStride. It applies to all users of the App, including guests who use the App without creating an account and registered users who sign in with email, Google, or Apple.

By using MapStride, you agree to the practices described in this Policy. If you do not agree, please discontinue use of the App.

We are committed to protecting your privacy. In particular:

  • We do not sell your personal data to third parties.

  • We do not use your personal data for third-party advertising.

  • We collect only the information necessary to provide and improve the Service.

  • Location data is used for workout tracking when you grant permission, not for advertising.

  • Health platform access (Apple Health / Google Health Connect) is optional and requires your explicit consent.

  • You may request deletion of your account and associated personal data.

When you create an account or use certain features, you may provide:

  • Account information such as name, email address, and password

  • Profile information such as age, gender, weight, height, unit preferences, and profile photo

  • Communications you send to us, including feedback and support requests

  • Optional content such as workout titles

When you record a workout, we may collect:

  • GPS location and route data during an active workout

  • Distance, duration, pace, speed, elevation, and related metrics

  • Step counts (for applicable workout types)

  • Estimated calories burned

  • Workout type and related activity details

Location is collected only while you are actively tracking a workout and have granted location permission. Location may continue to be recorded when the App is in the background during an active workout so that your session is not interrupted.

If you enable Health Sync and grant permission through Apple Health (HealthKit) or Google Health Connect, we may:

  • Read steps, heart rate, workouts, energy burned, and related distance or calorie data

  • Write MapStride workouts (including route data when available) to your health platform

We do not access health platform data unless you opt in and grant the required system permissions. You may disable Health Sync or revoke permissions at any time in the App or in your device settings.

MapStride is a fitness tool, not a medical device. Health-related information is provided for informational purposes only and is not medical advice.

When you use the App, we may automatically collect certain technical and usage information from your device. This may include information needed to operate the App, improve performance, diagnose issues, and deliver notifications you have enabled.

You may use MapStride without creating an account. Guest users may still provide profile information during onboarding, and workout data is stored primarily on the device. Limited guest

profile information linked to a device identifier may be stored on our servers. If you later create an account, guest data may be associated with that account.

We do not knowingly collect sensitive information that is not needed to provide the Service. For example, we do not store full payment card details, biometric identifiers, or contact lists, and we do not access location or health platform data except as described in this Policy and with your permission.

We use the information we collect to:

  • Provide, operate, and maintain MapStride, including workout tracking, maps, history, and profile features

  • Create and manage your account, including guest-to-account conversion

  • Calculate fitness metrics such as calories and BMI where applicable

  • Enable optional Health Sync with Apple Health or Google Health Connect

  • Send service-related communications and optional notifications you have enabled

  • Sync and back up data for signed-in users

  • Respond to support requests and feedback

  • Detect, prevent, and address: fraud, abuse, and security issues

  • Comply with applicable legal obligations

  • Process optional tip purchases and related supporter recognition

We will not use your information for purposes incompatible with this Policy without your consent where required by law.

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information for advertising or marketing purposes.

We may share information with trusted service providers who help us operate and improve the App. These providers process information only as needed to provide services to us and are expected to protect it appropriately.

If you choose to share a workout summary or image, the content is shared through your device’s share options with the apps or people you select. We do not control how those third parties handle shared content.

We may disclose information if required by law, legal process, or governmental request, or if we believe disclosure is necessary to protect the rights, safety, or security of Artevus, our users, or the public.

If Artevus is involved in a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction. We will take reasonable steps to notify you of any material change affecting this Policy.

We retain personal information only as long as needed to provide the Service and for legitimate business or legal purposes.

  • Active account data is retained while your account remains active.

  • Guest data is retained until you create an account, clear app data, uninstall the App, or request deletion where applicable.

  • When you delete your account, we remove personal data from our active systems after a grace period, subject to limited exceptions described below.

  • Anonymized or aggregated information that cannot reasonably identify you may be retained for analytics and product improvement.

Registered users may request account deletion from within the App.

After you request deletion:

  • A grace period applies during which you may cancel the request.

  • After the grace period ends, your account is deactivated and personal data is removed from our active systems, including profile information, workouts, goals, and stored media associated with your account.

We may retain limited information after deletion where necessary for legal compliance, security, fraud prevention, or financial recordkeeping, or in anonymized form that cannot reasonably identify you. Data stored only on your device may remain until you uninstall the App or clear app storage.

To request assistance with deletion, contact us at info@artevus.com.

Depending on your location, you may have the right to:

  • Access the personal information we hold about you

  • Correct inaccurate information

  • Request deletion of your personal information

  • Request a portable copy of your data where technically feasible

  • Restrict or object to certain processing

  • Withdraw consent for optional features such as Health Sync or notifications

You can manage many preferences directly in the App, including notification settings, Health Sync, and profile information.

To exercise your rights, contact us at info@artevus.com. We will respond within the timeframe required by applicable law.

  • GDPR (EU/EEA): You may have rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability, and objection. Our processing is based on contract performance, legitimate interests, and/or consent, as applicable.

  • CCPA (California): You have the right to know, delete, and opt out of the sale of personal information. We do not sell personal information.

  • Other jurisdictions: We comply with applicable local privacy laws where we operate.

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect personal information, including encryption in transit, access controls, and secure authentication practices. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Your information may be processed in countries other than your country of residence. Where required, we use appropriate safeguards for such transfers, including Standard Contractual

Clauses or other lawful mechanisms.

MapStride is not directed to children under 13 (or under 16 in the EU/EEA where applicable). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children below the applicable age threshold. If you believe a child has provided personal information to us, contact info@artevus.com and we will take appropriate steps to delete it.

The App may contain links to third-party websites or services. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those third parties. We encourage you to review their privacy policies.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we make material changes, we will update the “Last Updated” date and may provide additional notice in the App or by other reasonable means. Your continued use of the App after the effective date of the updated Policy constitutes acceptance of the changes, except where applicable law requires otherwise.
