Privacy Policy – Metronome during exercise (iSport Beat)

1. Who we are

This privacy policy applies to the Android app Metronome during exercise (iSport Beat), published on Google Play by the developer ananshop. ananshop is the developer name of NINGANTAI, an individual developer in Taiwan, who is responsible for the app and for this policy. “We”, “us” and “our” mean NINGANTAI.

2. What we collect

We do not collect, sell or share any personal data. The app has no account system, no ads, and no analytics or tracking SDK, and it does not send data to any server run by us. It does not ask for your name, age, weight, health data or location.

3. Data kept on your device

• Training history – each session is logged with its date, start time, end time and duration. The statistics, weekly and monthly goals and your streak of training days are worked out from this log on the device.
• Settings – tempo, beats per bar, sound set, session timer and alarm, interval beep, training program, vibration and screen flash, color theme, your saved presets, your weekly and monthly goals, and whether the app has already asked for notification permission.
• Rating dialog – how many sessions you have completed and when the app last offered the rating dialog.

This stays on your device. If Android backup is turned on for your Google account, Android may include the history and settings in your device backup, which Google manages.

4. Exporting and sharing

Nothing leaves the app unless you choose to send it:

• Export CSV writes your training history (date, start, end, duration) to a file and opens Android’s share sheet. The app you pick, such as email or cloud storage, receives the file and handles it under its own privacy policy.
• Share chart sends a picture of your statistics chart through the share sheet in the same way, and saving the chart puts the picture in Pictures/iSportBeat on your device, where your gallery can see it.

We never receive anything you export or share.

5. Notification and background playback

While a session runs, the app shows a notification with Pause and Stop so that the beat can carry on with the screen off or another app in front. The app asks for notification permission the first time you start a session; declining it does not stop the metronome.

6. Google services the app uses

The app uses the Google services below, through the Google Play Store app on your device. Data they handle is processed by Google under the Google Privacy Policy. We do not receive it.

• Google Play Licensing – checks with Google Play that this copy of the app was obtained from Google Play.
• Google Play In-App Review – may show Google’s rating dialog after you close the statistics, once you have completed a few sessions. Ratings and reviews you submit go to Google Play.

7. Permissions

• Foreground service and wake lock – to keep the beat going with the screen off or another app in front.
• Notifications – for the session notification with Pause and Stop.
• Vibrate – for the optional vibration on the beat.
• Internet and network state – the app sends no data of its own over the network.
• Storage – on Android 9 only, to save the chart picture. Later versions of Android need no permission for this.
• Check license – for the Google Play license check.

The app does not access your location, contacts, camera, microphone, health or fitness data, or your photos and files.

8. Links

The website and email entries in the About window open our website or your email app. What you send us by email is used only to reply to you.

9. Children

Because the app collects no personal data, it collects none from children.

10. Deleting your data

• To delete your training history, use Clear in the app, which deletes all history logs.
• To delete everything the app saved on your device, clear the app’s storage in Android Settings, or uninstall the app. Chart pictures you saved stay in Pictures/iSportBeat until you delete them in your gallery.
• We hold no data about you, so there is nothing for us to delete. If you have a question, email us.

11. Changes to this policy

If this policy changes, the new version will be posted on this page with a new effective date.
