This privacy policy is for our iOS App “Hydro Coach”. Hydro Coach is a water tracker and drink reminder app. All hydration data and goals saved through Hydro Coach are only stored locally on your device and are used to show this data inside of the app. Deleting Hydro Coach from your device also deletes this data.
3 – Apple HealthKit
HealthKit is a health data handling service provided by Apple Inc. that enables you to access or store activity data. Apple’s Privacy Policy can be found at Apple Health Privacy.
If you choose to have Hydro Coach integrate with Apple Health, the app will have access only to the health data types you opt-in. The data read from Apple Health is used solely for visualizing your data within the app. It is not collected or disclosed outside of your local installation of the app. If you opt-in, Hydro Coach can also write your water consumption to Apple Health.
4 – Game Center
Game Center allows you to engage in game-related activities and is designed to protect your information and enable you to choose what you share. Apple’s Privacy Policy can be found at https://www.apple.com/legal/privacy/data/en/game-center
You can collect achievements by adhering to your personal hydration goal. If you choose to use the Game Center feature of Hydro Coach, your collected achievements are visualized using Apple Game Center and shared with other users through your Game Center account. Your actual drink entries or information about your hydration goals are not shared or sent anywhere in this context.
5 – In-App Purchases
The App uses Apple as a payment provider for in-app purchases of premium features. Apple’s Privacy Policy can be found at https://www.apple.com/legal/privacy/en-ww/
In addition we use RevenueCat to manage the in-app purchase functionality of the app. RevenueCat assigns a random anonymous user identifier (the “User ID”) to your device and is sent to their servers for the purpose of managing access to paid features of the App and to facilitate restoring of past purchases on previous installs or devices. No personally identifiable information is included. RevenueCat’s Privacy Policy can be found at https://www.revenuecat.com/privacy

3 – Information you share with us
3.1 – Basic Account Information
You don’t have to create an account to use the Hydro Coach service. If you do not create an account, your data is transferred and stored anonymously. If you choose to create an account, you must provide us with some personal data so that we can provide our services to you.
The personal data needed for your account are:

This data is not shared publicly but we use it to display to those Hydro Coach users who you have invited to connect to you within the Hydro Coach Team functionality or those who’s invitation to connect you have accepted.
Information such as email address or social network contact information are not shared, either publicly or to your Hydro Coach Team connections.
3.2 – Connected Apps
For health and fitness apps that are involved with the sync you need to authorize Hydro Coach. For each app that you can sync with, we describe the privacy aspects:
3.2.1 – Google Fit
If you choose to sync with Google Fit, Hydro Coach needs permission to access the Google Fit data. Hydro Coach only asks for the permission “Nutrition Read/Write” and uses the data type “Hydration” and “Aggregate Hydration” to sync your hydration data with Google Fit. No profile information is used or stored. Without the permission, the data can’t be synced. Read permissions are required for reading data from Google Fit. Write permissions are required for writing data to Google Fit. Access to your Google profile is required to show the Google account that is used for Google Fit in the Google Fit Authorization page in Hydro Coach. The use and transfer to any other app of information received from Google APIs will adhere to Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
3.2.1 – Samsung Health
If you choose to sync with Samsung Health, Hydro Coach needs permission to access the Samsung Health data when you sync with Samsung Health. Hydro Coach only asks for the permission “Water Intake” to sync your hydration data with Samsung Health. No profile information is used or stored. Without the permission, the hydration data can’t be synced.
3.2.2 – Fitbit
If you choose to sync with Fitbit, Hydro Coach needs permission to access the Fitbit data when you sync with Fitbit. Hydro Coach only asks for the permission “Water Intake” to sync your hydration data with Fitbit. No profile information is used or stored. Without the permission, the hydration data can’t be synced.
The use of information received from Fitbit APIs and/or Developer Tools will adhere to the Fitbit Platform Developer and User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
3.3 – Ads
Hydro Coach displays ads within our free app (excluding Pro and Upgraded version) through a third party ad network (Admob). AdMob is a mobile application advertising platform created by Google. AdMob also works with Google Analytics to help app owners get valuable insight and information about their app’s usage and the effectiveness of any advertising campaigns.
If you have an Android device and would like to opt out of mobile interest-based or “cross-app” advertising, you may do this as follows: Open the Settings app on your device -> Go to “Google” -> Select Ads -> Opt out of interest-based ads
3.4 – Firebase
We use the Firebase service from Google Ireland Limited (Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland) in order to derive application behavioral analytics. We use that information to see how users interact with our website and app.
Firebase is part of the Google Cloud Platform and offers numerous services for developers. A list can be found here: https://firebase.google.com/terms/. Some Firebase services process personal data – an overview can be found here: https://firebase.google.com/support/privacy. In most cases, the personal data is limited to so-called “instance IDs”, which are provided with a time stamp. These “Instance IDs” assigned by Firebase are unique and thus allow the linking of different events or processes. This data does not represent personally identifiable information for us, nor do we make any efforts to personalize it subsequently. We process these aggregated data to analyze and optimize usage behavior, for example by evaluating crash reports.
We are using the following Firebase services:
3.4.1 – Google Analytics for Firebase
Google Analytics uses the data to provide analytics and attribution information. The precise information collected can vary by the device and environment. Google Analytics retains ID-associated data for 60 days, and retains aggregate reporting and campaign data without automatic expiration, unless the Firebase customer changes their retention preference in their Analytics settings or deletes their project. For Analytics for Firebase, Google uses not only the “Instance ID” described above, but also the advertising ID of the end device. You can restrict the use of the advertising ID in the device settings of your mobile device. For Android: Settings > Google > Ads > Reset Ad ID
3.4.2 – Firebase Crashlytics
We use the “Crashlytics” diagnostics service operated by Google. Crashlytics and the error reports generated by the software are used to record and analyze errors. The resultant information is used to maintain and improve our App. Should usage of the App lead to unexpected errors or the App crashing, specific information, such as the device type, operating system version, date and time of the error, country in which the query originated, and language selected for the operating system, will be sent to Crashlytics.
3.4.3 – Firebase Realtime Database
Hydro Coach uses Google’s Firebase Realtime Database as the underlying infrastructure to store and transfer data. Firebase Realtime Database is a hosting and backend service provided by Google Ireland Limited. Place of processing: United States – Privacy Policy
3.4.4 – Firebase Authentication
Firebase Authentication is a registration and authentication service provided by Google Inc. To simplify the registration and authentication process, Firebase Authentication can make use of third-party identity providers and save the information on its platform.
Personal Data collected: email address, first name and last name.
Place of processing: United States – Privacy Policy
By registering or authenticating, Users allow Hydro Coach to identify them and give them access to dedicated services.
3.4.5 – Firebase Dynamic Links
Dynamic Links uses device specs on iOS and Android to open newly-installed apps to a specific page or context. Dynamic Links only stores device specs temporarily, to provide the service.
3.5 – In-App Purchases
The App uses Google as a payment provider for in-app purchases of premium features. In addition we use RevenueCat to manage the in-app purchase functionality of the app. RevenueCat assigns a random anonymous user identifier (the “User ID”) to your device and is sent to their servers for the purpose of managing access to paid features of the App and to facilitate restoring of past purchases on previous installs or devices. No personally identifiable information is included. RevenueCat’s Privacy Policy can be found at https://www.revenuecat.com/privacy
4 – Children’s Privacy
Our services are intended for general audiences over the age of 18 years old. We do not knowingly collect information from children under the age of 18 years old. If you are not over 18 years old then DO NOT DOWNLOAD OR USE THE SERVICES.
