Corner privacy policy
The short version
- Corner has no accounts, no ads and no in-app purchases.
- Your workouts, combos, notes and settings are stored on your phone. We don't have them.
- Corner uses Firebase Analytics, a Google service, to see how the app is used, but only if you agree. Corner asks once, and sends nothing to Analytics until you say yes. You can turn it off at any time in Settings.
- Corner uses Firebase Crashlytics, also from Google, to receive crash reports so we can fix them.
- Neither service receives your workout names, combos or notes. Corner uses no advertising ID.
- When you send a workout to a friend, you share it yourself, through the iOS share sheet. Nothing is uploaded to us.
What stays on your phone
Corner keeps these on your phone only: your settings, saved workouts, custom combos and notes, a workout you've paused, and your choices in the workout builder. Like other app data, they can be included in your phone's backups. Deleting Corner removes them from your phone.
The trainer's voice is played on your phone. Corner never uses the microphone.
Analytics
Corner uses Firebase Analytics to see how the app is used, for example how many rounds people finish and which workouts they start. Firebase is a Google service. Google's privacy information for Firebase explains how it handles data.
Corner sends nothing to Analytics until you agree. It asks you once, and you can change your answer at any time with the Share usage data switch in Settings.
Once you have agreed, Corner logs these events, and no others:
- A workout starts
- Number of rounds, round and rest length, intensity, stance, focus areas, whether it's for you or someone else, where you started it, and simple or coach mode.
- A round finishes
- That a round was completed.
- A workout finishes
- Total work time.
- A workout is stopped early
- That it was stopped before the end.
- A screen is opened
- Which screen, such as My Corner, and which part of it.
With each event, Firebase also records by itself: its own random install ID, your phone's make and model, its iOS version and language, Corner's version, when you first opened Corner and each visit, and an approximate location (country, region and city) worked out from your phone's network address. Corner never asks for your location.
Corner never logs workout names, combos, notes, or anything you type. Corner sets Firebase up this way:
- No advertising ID. iOS never asks you to allow tracking, because Corner doesn't track you.
- Ad features off. Ad personalization and Google signals are off.
- Detail kept 14 months. This is Firebase's retention setting for event-level data.
Turning off Share usage data, or deleting Corner, stops it sending anything more to Analytics. What Firebase already received stays with it until it is deleted.
Analytics ID. Once you have agreed, Settings shows your analytics ID, Firebase's random install ID for your phone. To ask for your analytics data to be deleted, email southpawlabsteam@gmail.com with that ID, and we'll ask Google to delete the data tied to it. Without the ID, we can't tell which data is yours.
Crash reports
If Corner crashes or hits an error, Firebase Crashlytics receives a report so we can fix it: what went wrong in the app's code, plus your phone's model, iOS version and Corner's version. Crash reports don't include your workouts, combos or notes.
Sharing a workout
When you send a workout, Corner turns it into a share code on your phone. The code contains the workout's name, settings, combos, calls and coach notes. You choose who to send it to, through the iOS share sheet, along with a link to Corner on the App Store. Corner doesn't upload it, so we never see it, but anyone who has the code can read what's in it.
Corner reads your clipboard only when you tap to paste a code someone sent you.
Permissions
Corner doesn't ask for your camera, microphone, photos, location, health data or contacts. It plays audio in the background so the trainer keeps calling rounds when your screen is off.
What Corner doesn't do
- No accounts. There's nothing to sign in to.
- No ads, and no advertising ID.
- We don't sell your information or share it for advertising.
- Corner doesn't follow you across other companies' apps or websites.
Other services involved
- Google provides Firebase Analytics, only once you agree, and Firebase Crashlytics, as described above.
- Apple gives us aggregate App Store statistics, such as download counts, and crash reports from people who chose to share them with developers.
Your choices and requests
Corner has no accounts, so there's nothing to sign in to, review or correct. Deleting Corner removes everything it stored on your phone. To ask a privacy question, or to ask for something to be deleted, email southpawlabsteam@gmail.com.
Who Corner is for
Corner is rated 12+ on the App Store and is meant for teens and adults. It isn't directed to children under 13, has no accounts and doesn't ask anyone's age. We don't knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child under 13 has used Corner, email southpawlabsteam@gmail.com.
Changes to this policy
If what Corner stores or logs changes, this page changes with it, and the date at the top moves. Corner has no way to email you, so this page is where a change is announced.
