HealthKit Permissions

Insight Run requests permission to read specific health data types. You have full control over which data types to share:

  • You can grant or deny access to individual data types
  • You can modify permissions at any time in the Health app settings
  • The app will function with partial permissions, though some features may be limited
  • Insight Run does not write or modify any data in HealthKit - it is read-only

Third-Party Services

Insight Run integrates with the following services:

  • Strava - Optional integration to synchronize your activities and access detailed workout data. When connected, we access only the data you authorize through Strava's OAuth flow. All Strava data handling complies with Strava's API Agreement and Brand Guidelines.

These services are bound by their own privacy policies and our agreements with them include strict data protection clauses.

Data Retention

  • Health data remains in Apple HealthKit and is governed by Apple's privacy policy
  • Strava data is synchronized periodically and cached locally on your device. You can disconnect your Strava account at any time.
