Kinetik Privacy Policy
Last updated: November 4, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how Kinetik ("we", "us", "our") handles your information. This policy explains what we collect, why, and the choices you have. Kinetik is for people aged 18 and over.
What we collect
- Account: the name and email address shared by Sign in with Apple or Google. With Apple's "Hide My Email", we receive a relay address only.
- Profile: display name, handle, date of birth (to confirm you are 18+; never shown — only your age is), gender, height, weight, bio, profile photo, fitness goals, experience, schedule and equipment.
- Workout data: for each session, the exercise, start/end time, and a per-rep log of timing, joint-angle depth and detection confidence. Camera video is processed on your device and is never uploaded or stored.
- Approximate location (only if you allow it): rounded to about 1 km before it reaches our servers, plus a city name. Other users only ever see an approximate distance (e.g. "2.5 km away"), never your location.
- Social activity: connections, messages, challenges, reports and blocks.
- Device data: push-notification token, app version, platform, time zone, last-active time.
How we use it
- To count and verify reps, run challenges, XP, streaks and leagues.
- To suggest compatible people in Find Your People, based on verified activity, goals, schedule and approximate distance.
- To deliver messages and notifications you've enabled.
- To keep the community safe: automated profile-photo screening, anti-cheat checks on workout data, and review of reports.
- To operate, secure and improve the service.
We do not sell your personal data and do not use it for third-party advertising.
