dawg Privacy Policy
Effective October 20, 2026. Published at https://itsadel.com/dawg/privacy/.
dawg is a workout logger made by Adel Akbar, an independent developer in British Columbia, Canada ("I", "me"). This policy explains what dawg collects, why, and what you can do about it. The short version: dawg doesn't show ads, doesn't track you across apps or websites, and never sells your data. In offline mode, your workouts never leave your phone.
1. Two ways to use dawg
Offline (free). Your workouts, exercises, templates and settings are stored only on your phone. dawg doesn't send them anywhere. If you open the membership offer, the app contacts our purchase provider (RevenueCat, see section 4) to show the current price; nothing about your workouts is included.
With an account (Founding Dawg membership). Your data is stored on your phone and synced to our server so it's backed up and available on your other devices.
2. What we collect with an account
- Sign-in details: your email address, or, if you use Sign in with Apple, an identifier from Apple and the email Apple shares (which may be a private relay address if you choose "Hide My Email").
- Your training data: workouts, sets (weights, reps, times, distances, notes), exercises you create, templates, and app settings (such as units, rest timer preferences and your pup's name).
- Membership status: whether your membership is active and when it renews or ends.
- Technical data: our server keeps standard logs (such as IP address, time and the request made) for security and troubleshooting.
We don't collect your contacts, location, photos, health data, or advertising identifiers.
3. How we use it
Only to run dawg: to sign you in, sync and back up your data, unlock membership features, keep the service secure, and answer you if you contact support. No ads, no profiling, no selling, no sharing for anyone else's marketing.
4. Services that process data for us
| Service | What for | What it receives |
|---|---|---|
| Supabase (database and sign-in), servers in Oregon, USA | Storing your account and synced data | Sign-in details, training data, logs |
| Resend | Sending your sign-in code emails | Your email address and the code |
| Apple | Sign in with Apple; processing payments for the membership | As described in Apple's own privacy policy. We never see your payment card |
| RevenueCat | Managing your membership purchase | An app user ID (a random account ID, never your email), purchase history, device and app version |
These providers act on our behalf and may only use the data to provide their service to us. Your data may be stored and processed in the United States, outside Canada.
5. How long we keep it, and deleting it
- Account data is kept while you have an account.
- Delete your account any time in dawg: Settings → Delete Account. This deletes your account and synced data from our database immediately and revokes Sign in with Apple. Backups containing it are overwritten within 7 days.
- Offline data stays on your phone until you delete it or the app.
- You can export your workouts at any time (Settings → Export Workouts) as a spreadsheet file.
6. Your rights
You can ask to access, correct or delete your personal information, or ask questions about how it's handled, by emailing [email protected]. Depending on where you live (for example Canada, under PIPEDA, or the EU/UK, under the GDPR), you may have additional rights, including complaining to your privacy regulator.
7. Security
Data is encrypted in transit, and our database only lets each account read and change its own data. No system is perfectly secure, but we work to protect your information and will notify you if a breach affects it, as the law requires.
8. Children
dawg isn't directed at children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect their personal information. If you think a child has given us data, contact us and we'll delete it.
9. Changes
If this policy changes in a meaningful way, we'll update the date above and let you know in the app.
