Ziga Porenta ("us", "we", or "our") operates the Outsole iPhone application (the "Service").
This page explains how Outsole handles data when you use the Service and the choices you have associated with that data.
Information Collection And Use
Apple Health
With your permission, Outsole reads running workouts (and related details such as distance, duration, heart rate, elevation, cadence and routes) from Apple Health so you can assign each run to a shoe. This Health data is processed on your device. It is not uploaded to our servers, not used for advertising and not sold. You can change access at any time in the Health settings of your iPhone.
App Data On Your Device
Your shoes, insoles, rotations, run assignments, ratings, notes and settings are stored on your iPhone, and in storage shared with the Outsole Home Screen widgets. Outsole does not require an account or a sign-in.
Strava (Optional)
If you choose to connect Strava, Outsole uses Strava's authorization to read your gear (shoes and their mileage) and basic profile so it can import them. You can disconnect at any time in Outsole or in your Strava settings. Strava's own privacy policy applies to your Strava account. Outsole is not affiliated with or endorsed by Strava.
Surface Analysis (Optional)
When surface analysis is turned on, Outsole matches the route of a run to OpenStreetMap to estimate how much of it was road, gravel, trail or dirt road. To do this, the route of that run is sent to public OpenStreetMap servers, which are operated by third parties and may see your IP address and the route. You can turn this off in Settings, and no route is sent while it is off.
Shoe Catalog And Anonymous Sharing
To help build and improve the shoe catalog, shoes you add (brand, model, total distance, your goal, the roles you give them, ratings and when you retire them) are shared with our backend. This is linked only to a random anonymous identifier created by the app, not to your name, email address, Health data, location or routes.
Notifications
If you allow notifications, Outsole schedules them locally on your iPhone, for example when a shoe reaches 80% or 100% of its goal. Notification content is not sent to us.
No Advertising Or Tracking
Outsole does not include advertising or third-party analytics, does not track you across other companies' apps and websites, and does not collect your name, email address or contacts.
Purchases
Any purchase is processed by Apple through the App Store. We do not receive or store your payment details.
Support Data
If you contact support, you may choose to provide your name, email address, message and other information needed to respond to your request.
Diagnostics
We may receive Apple-provided crash reports, diagnostics and App Store Connect Analytics when you have chosen to share analytics with app developers through Apple settings.
Use Of Data
Outsole uses data for the following purposes:
- To show your runs, track the distance on each shoe and suggest the shoe you most likely wore
- To send you mileage alerts and show your shoes in widgets
- To import your shoes from Strava, if you choose to connect it
- To estimate surfaces for your runs, if you leave surface analysis on
- To build and improve the shoe catalog from anonymous shoe information
- To provide customer care and support, and to address technical issues
Deleting Your Data
Data on your device is removed when you delete shoes in the app or delete the app. To ask us to delete the anonymous shoe records linked to your device, or to ask any question about your data, contact [email protected].
Transfer Of Data
Information shared with our backend or provided to support may be transferred to and maintained on computers located outside of your state, province, country or other governmental jurisdiction where data protection laws may differ from those in your jurisdiction.
If you are located outside Slovenia and choose to provide information to us, please note that we may transfer the data to Slovenia and process it there.
Disclosure Of Data
We may disclose data in the good faith belief that such action is necessary to:
- Comply with a legal obligation
- Protect and defend the rights or property of Outsole
- Prevent or investigate possible wrongdoing in connection with the Service
- Protect the personal safety of users of the Service or the public
- Protect against legal liability
Security Of Data
The security of your data is important to us, but no method of electronic storage or transmission over the Internet is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security.
