Privacy Policy
SwitchOn Body ("the app") explains below how it handles your personal information.
- Effective date: October 18, 2026
- Contact: ideality.switchonthebody@gmail.com
1. Information the developer collects
The developer does not run any server and does not collect or receive your personal information. There is no sign-up or login.
2. Information stored only on your device
The following information is stored only on your device for app features and is never sent to anyone, including the developer.
| Information | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Age, sex, height, weight, usual activity | Calculating daily protein and water targets and ideal weight |
| Wake, meal, workout and bedtime times; program start date | Building your daily schedule and reminders |
| Completed tasks, weight records | Showing your progress and weight trend |
| Body fat %, fat mass, skeletal muscle, BMR, visceral fat level (entered by you or imported from Health Connect or Apple Health) | Showing body composition changes and your measured BMR |
| Body photos (RealBody) and body point positions in them | Guiding the same framing, aligning and comparing photos |
- Body photos are kept only in the app's private storage. They are never saved to your gallery or sent anywhere.
- To guide your pose, align photos and compare your body outline, the app uses Google ML Kit pose detection and selfie segmentation. This analysis runs only on your device; photos and results (body point positions) are never sent anywhere.
- Retention and deletion: Everything is deleted immediately when you tap "Settings > Reset all data" or uninstall the app. You can also delete photos one by one.
3. Health Connect and Apple Health
- Only if you allow it, the app reads weight, body fat and basal metabolic rate from Android Health Connect, read only. These are values other apps such as Samsung Health or InBody saved to Health Connect. The app does not write to Health Connect.
- If you allow access to past data, the app also imports records older than 30 days. Otherwise it imports only the last 30 days.
- Imported values are stored only on your device as described in section 2. They are never sent anywhere, shared with third parties or used for ads.
- You can revoke the permission at any time in the Health Connect app or device settings.
- Use of information received from Health Connect adheres to the Health Connect Permissions policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
- iPhone (Apple Health): Only if you allow it, the app reads weight and body fat percentage from Apple Health, read only. These are values other apps such as InBody saved to Apple Health. The app does not write to Apple Health, keeps imported values only on your device, and never sends them anywhere or uses them for ads or marketing. You can revoke access at any time in the Health app or device settings.
4. Information collected by the ad SDK (third party)
The app uses Google AdMob to stay free. AdMob collects the following information directly from your device to serve ads. The developer cannot receive or see this information.
| Collected by | Information | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Google LLC (AdMob) | Advertising ID (device identifier), IP address (used to estimate approximate location), device model and OS, app interactions such as ad views and clicks, diagnostics | Serving ads, measuring ad performance, preventing fraud |
- International transfer: This information is sent over the network to Google LLC servers (USA) while you use the app and is handled under Google's Privacy Policy (https://policies.google.com/privacy).
- Opting out of personalized ads: You can reset or delete your advertising ID in your device settings (Android: Settings > Privacy > Ads). On iPhone, the app asks whether to allow tracking before it first loads ads; if you don't allow it, the advertising identifier is not used. You can change this at any time in Settings > Privacy & Security > Tracking.
- Users in the EEA, the UK and Switzerland are asked for consent before ads load, and can change their choice at any time in "Settings > Ad privacy settings".
5. Processors and third-party sharing
Because the developer does not collect personal information, it does not use processors or share information with third parties. Collection by the ad SDK is described in section 4.
6. Permissions
| Permission | Use | Required |
|---|---|---|
| Camera | Taking RealBody photos and live pose guidance (analyzed on device) | Optional (other features work without it) |
| Notifications | Meal, workout and bedtime reminders | Optional |
| Health Connect (read weight, body fat, BMR, and past data) | Importing body composition (Android) | Optional |
| Apple Health (read weight and body fat percentage) | Importing body composition (iPhone) | Optional |
| App tracking | Personalized ads (iPhone) | Optional (every feature works without it) |
| Internet | Showing ads | Required |
Reminders are scheduled on your device only and do not go through any server.
7. Feedback email
If you send an email from "Settings > Send feedback", we use your message and the app version, OS and device model added to it only to handle your inquiry. We delete it without delay once the inquiry is resolved, and keep it for up to 1 year only when needed to handle a dispute.
