Privacy Policy

Last updated September 25, 2026

The Accountability Gym ("T.A.G.", "we", "us") is a workout tracking service: this website and the T.A.G. Android app. Both use the same account and the same server. This page explains what we collect, why, who else sees it, and how to delete it.

What we collect

Health Connect

If you connect the app to Health Connect, it can read exercise sessions and distance (to import workouts you recorded elsewhere) and write exercise sessions and distance (so the workouts you log in T.A.G. appear in Health Connect). Imported workouts are saved to your T.A.G. account like any other workout you log. You can turn this off at any time in Health Connect's settings.

Data from Health Connect is used only to show your own workouts and progress in T.A.G. It is never sold, never used for advertising, and never shared with anyone, except as needed to run the service described here. Our use of information received from Health Connect follows the Health Connect Permissions policy, including its Limited Use requirements.

How we use it

What other members see

Other members can see your username, display name, profile photo, badges, leaderboard standing, and anything you post or share with them (community posts, reactions, messages you send them, events, challenges). Your workout log, run routes, body weight, steps and progress photos are private to you. Site administrators can see account information in order to run the service.

Who else receives data

We don't sell your data or share it for advertising. These services receive only what they need to do their job:

We may also disclose information if required by law.

Security

All connections use HTTPS. Passwords are stored hashed, never in plain text. The app keeps your login in encrypted storage on your phone, and can require your fingerprint or face to open.

Deleting your account and data

You can delete your account yourself at any time:

Your account disappears immediately. Your data is then kept for 30 days, so an accidental deletion can be undone if you contact us, and after that it is permanently deleted: your account, workouts, runs and routes, body weight, steps, photos, goals, badges, posts, reactions, messages, events and invites. A few records that belong to other members are kept without your details: for example, a community challenge you created stays for the members who joined it. Short-lived server logs are deleted on their normal schedule.

You can also delete individual workouts, runs, body weight entries and photos at any time without deleting your account. Runs, body weight entries and photos are deleted straight away; a deleted workout is kept for 30 days in case it was a mistake, then erased for good.

Children

T.A.G. is not meant for children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect their information. If you think a child has an account, contact us and we'll delete it.

Changes to this policy

If we change this policy, we'll update the date at the top of this page.
