Privacy Policy

Last updated: May 31, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how MyGenki collects, uses, stores, and protects information when you use the MyGenki app, website, and related services.

Information We Collect

Account and authentication data

MyGenki collects or receives account and authentication data, including:

Firebase user ID
Email address
Display name
Authentication provider information, such as Google Sign-In or Sign in with Apple
Account creation and update timestamps

Authentication is handled through Firebase Auth.

Profile data

MyGenki may collect profile data, including:

Display name
Profile photo
Date of birth
Sex
Preferred unit system
Preferred language
App theme preference
Initial height and weight entered during onboarding

Fitness and training data

MyGenki stores fitness and training data you create in the app. This data is primarily stored locally on your device and may be included in Google Drive backup if you enable backup. It includes:

Workouts
Workout exercises and sets
Completed workout history
Routines and routine templates
Scheduled workouts
Training plans
Custom exercises
Exercise notes/details where applicable
Analytics generated from workout history
Streaks, volume trends, personal records, and muscle-balance calculations

This fitness and training data is not currently synchronized to the MyGenki backend unless a specific feature says otherwise.

Body measurement data

MyGenki stores body measurement data, including:

Weight
Height
Measurement dates
BMI/category calculations derived locally from weight and height

BMI/category values are calculated for display and are not medical advice.

Images and photos

MyGenki may store images selected by you, including:

Profile photos
Custom exercise photos
Routine photos
Other local photos you add to supported app features

Selected images may be copied into app-private local storage and may be included in Google Drive backup only if you enable photo backup.

Device and local app data

MyGenki stores some data locally on your device, including:

SQLite/Drift database data
SharedPreferences settings
Cached profile data
Cached sync timestamps
Backup settings
Notification settings
Local notification inbox entries
Local debug data in debug builds only

Notification data

MyGenki may process notification-related data, including:

Firebase Cloud Messaging token or topic subscription state
Subscription to the general_updates topic when general push notifications are enabled
Received notification title/body/payload
Local read/unread state for notification inbox entries
Notification permission status stored by the operating system

Google Drive backup data

If you connect Google Drive backup, MyGenki may process:

The selected Google Drive account email
Google Drive authorization state
Backup metadata, such as last backup time and storage/quota metadata
Backup files stored in your Google Drive appDataFolder
The local app database included in backup files
Optional local photos if you enable photo backup

The Google Drive account used for backup may be different from the Firebase/MyGenki login account.

Workouts, custom routines, schedules, training plans, custom exercises, exercise notes, analytics generated from workout history, and local photos are currently stored on your device. They may be included in Google Drive backup if backup is enabled, but they are not currently synchronized to the MyGenki backend unless a specific feature says otherwise.

Backend sync data

Some data is synchronized with MyGenki backend services, including:

User profile data
Body measurements
Tutorial completion state
Provided exercise catalog data
Provided routine/template data
Other server-owned content required for app functionality

Some local changes may be queued offline and synchronized later when connectivity returns.

Support/contact data

If you contact MyGenki, we may process:

Email address
Message content
Any information voluntarily included in the support request

How We Use Information

MyGenki uses information to:

Create and manage user accounts
Authenticate users
Provide workout tracking features
Save routines, workouts, schedules, exercises, and measurements
Show analytics and progress trends
Personalize units, language, reminders, and app settings
Synchronize data between the app and backend services
Provide optional Google Drive backup and restore
Send local notifications, workout reminders, backup status notifications, and general push notifications
Maintain security, prevent abuse, and troubleshoot problems
Improve app reliability and user experience
Respond to support requests
Comply with legal obligations

Local Storage and Synchronization

MyGenki is local-first, so much app data is stored on your device. Local data may be stored in SQLite/Drift and app preferences.

Some account, profile, body measurement, tutorial, and server-owned content data is synchronized with MyGenki backend services. Offline changes for synced features may be queued locally and synchronized once the device is online.

Deleting the app may delete local-only data that has not been backed up or synchronized. You are responsible for keeping independent backups of data that is important to you.

Google Drive Backup

Google Drive backup is optional and must be connected manually. It uses Google Drive's app-specific appDataFolder. Backup files are private to the app and normally not visible in the regular Google Drive file list.

Backups may include the local app database. Backups may include local photos only if photo backup is enabled. Body measurements are excluded from Google Drive backup because they are synchronized with the MyGenki backend.

Auto-backup may run in the background if enabled. Background auto-backup uses silent cached Google authorization and will not show interactive Google login screens.

MyGenki is not responsible for the availability, integrity, or accessibility of data stored in your Google Drive. You can disconnect Google Drive backup in the app, but disconnecting Google Drive backup in the app does not necessarily delete existing backup files from Google Drive. Account deletion does not automatically delete Google Drive backups.

Notifications

MyGenki uses local notifications and Firebase Cloud Messaging. Notifications may include workout reminders, backup status notifications, and general updates.

You can control general push notifications in app settings. Workout reminders and backup status notifications may have separate controls. Devices with general push enabled may subscribe to the general_updates FCM topic.

Received notifications may be stored locally in an in-app notification inbox. Notification delivery is not guaranteed and depends on OS permissions, device state, network, Firebase, and platform services. You can disable notifications through app settings or operating system settings.

Third-Party Services

MyGenki uses third-party services, including:

Firebase Auth for authentication
Firebase Cloud Messaging for push notifications
Google Sign-In for authentication and/or Google account selection
Sign in with Apple for authentication where available
Google Drive API for optional backup
Google Play services, where applicable
Mobile operating systems and device services
MyGenki backend/API hosting provider

Third-party services may process data according to their own terms and privacy policies.

MyGenki does not sell personal data. MyGenki does not track users across other apps or websites for advertising.

MyGenki shares or processes data only as needed to provide the service, operate backend infrastructure, use third-party providers, comply with law, protect rights/security, or with your consent.

Google Drive backup data is stored in your own Google Drive when you enable that feature.

Data Retention

MyGenki keeps account and app data while the account is active. Local app data remains on the device until deleted by you, removed by the app, or the app is uninstalled.

Backend data is retained as needed to provide the service. Deleted account data is removed from active systems, subject to limited retention in backups, logs, security records, or legal compliance systems.

Google Drive backups remain in your Google account until you remove them or revoke/delete them through Google account controls.

Account Deletion

You can delete your account from the app. You can also request deletion by emailing contact@mygenki.app.

Account deletion is permanent. Account deletion deletes the MyGenki account and associated server-side account, profile, body measurement, tutorial, and other backend-synced data from active systems. Account deletion signs you out and clears local app data handled by the app.

Some limited data may remain temporarily in backups, logs, fraud/security records, or legally required records.

Google Drive backups are not deleted automatically. You must delete Google Drive backups and revoke MyGenki's Drive access separately from your Google account if you want those removed.

Your Rights and Choices

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to:

Access your personal data
Correct inaccurate data
Delete your account/data
Object to or restrict certain processing
Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent
Export or receive a copy of your data where legally required
Lodge a complaint with a data protection authority

Requests can be sent to contact@mygenki.app.
