This Privacy Policy explains what information Domestique Hub ("we", "us") — a training app for cycling and triathlon clubs — processes when you use our apps, devices and website (the "Service"), and the choices you have. We collect only what a team-training experience needs. We do not use advertising or third-party analytics, we do not track you across other apps, and we do not sell your data.
1. Data we collect
We collect information you provide directly and data generated as you train:
| Category | What | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Account | Your name, email address, and account identifier (from Sign in with Apple, Google, or email registration) | To create and secure your account |
| Precise location | GPS position, speed and elevation while you record a ride — including in the background when a live ride is active | To record your route and show your position to teammates during a group ride |
| Health & fitness | Workout metrics (distance, pace, power, cadence, heart rate) and, if you connect Apple Health, readings such as resting heart rate, heart-rate variability, respiratory rate, VO₂ max, sleep and body weight | To build your training log, health trends and team leaderboards |
| Photos | Profile and activity photos you choose to add | To personalize your profile and posts |
| Content | Activity notes, goals, plans and messages you send in your squad | To provide the feed, planning and messaging features |
2. How we use it
We use your data to operate and improve the Service — to record and analyse your activities, build your training log and health trends, generate route and performance insights, power live group rides and team leaderboards, sync your plans and calendar, and keep the Service secure. We do not sell your personal data and we do not use it for advertising.
3. Sharing with your squad
When you join a squad or team, certain data is visible to its members and coaches — your activities, your position during live group rides, and your leaderboard standing — according to your in-app Privacy settings (profile visibility, activity-map visibility, "hide start & finish", and live-location sharing). You control the visibility of each activity.
4. Third-party services
We host data with Microsoft Azure. Sign-in is handled by Apple and Google. Optional integrations exchange data with Apple Health (on your device) and Garmin Connect (only if you connect it). These providers process data only as needed to provide their service. We do not use third-party advertising or analytics SDKs.
5. Data retention
We keep your account and activity data while your account is active. When you delete an activity it is removed from your feed. When you delete your account (Settings → Privacy → "Delete account"), your account and all associated data — activities, memberships, messages, photos and any squads you own — are permanently removed from our systems. This is irreversible.
6. Your rights & controls
- Privacy controls. Settings → Privacy lets you control profile and activity-map visibility, hide the start and finish of routes, and turn live-location sharing on or off.
- Delete your account. Settings → Privacy → "Delete account" permanently deletes your account and all associated data.
- Export your data. You can request a copy of your data from within the app or by emailing us.
- Permissions. Location, Bluetooth, Camera, Photos and Health access are optional and requested only when needed; you can change them anytime in your device settings.
7. Security
We protect data in transit and at rest using standard encryption, host it with Microsoft Azure, and restrict internal access on a need-to-know basis. No method of transmission or storage is perfectly secure, but we work continuously to safeguard your information.
8. Children's privacy
The Service is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their data. If you believe a child has provided us personal data, contact us and we will delete it.
9. Changes & contact
We may update this policy from time to time. If we make material changes we will update the date above and, where appropriate, notify you in the app. Questions about your privacy? Email support@domestiquehub.com.
