Privacy Policy

Gym Alerts is a management tool built for gym owners to track members, trial visitors and fees. This page explains exactly what the app collects, why, and how you stay in control of it.

Effective date: 4 July 2026 Applies to: Gym Alerts Android app (com.myworkshop.gymmanagementapp) Version: 1.0

§01Overview

Gym Alerts helps gym owners run their business — tracking members, trial visitors, membership fees and renewal reminders — without needing a spreadsheet or a front-desk register. Because the app handles names, phone numbers and payment status for real people, we've kept the data footprint deliberately narrow: we only collect what the app needs to function, we don't sell data, and we don't run advertising inside the app.

§02Who This Covers

This policy covers two kinds of data:

  • Your data — the gym owner who creates an account and uses the app.
  • Data you enter about others — your gym's members and trial visitors, which you input into the app yourself.
Owner responsibility As the gym owner, you're the one collecting member and visitor details in the real world. You're responsible for having the right to store that information (for example, telling members their details are kept in a digital register) before entering it into Gym Alerts.

§03Information We Collect

Account information

When you sign up, we collect your email address and a securely hashed password (or, if you use Google Sign-In, your Google account name, email and profile photo) via Firebase Authentication.

Gym profile

Details you add about your business: gym name, tagline, address, GST number, and contact number. If you upload a logo, it's saved only in the app's local storage on your device — it is not uploaded to our servers.

Member & trial visitor records

For each member or trial visitor you add, the app stores: name, phone number, membership plan length, start date, fee amount, payment status, and (for trial visitors) trial length and visit count.

Notification data

A device push token (via Firebase Cloud Messaging) and your chosen reminder time slots, so we can send renewal and fee-due reminders.

Diagnostic & usage data

We use Firebase Analytics and Firebase Crashlytics, which automatically collect standard technical data — device model, OS version, app version, crash logs, and general in-app usage events — to help us fix bugs and understand feature usage.

Category Examples Collected via
Account Email, password hash, Google profile (optional) Firebase Authentication
Business profile Gym name, address, GST no., contact number Cloud Firestore
Member records Name, phone, plan, fees, payment status Cloud Firestore
Trial visitor records Name, phone, trial length, visits Cloud Firestore
Device logo Gym logo image On-device storage only
Notifications Push token, reminder time slots Firebase Cloud Messaging
Diagnostics Crash reports, device info, usage events Firebase Crashlytics / Analytics

We do not access your device's location, camera, microphone, or contacts — the app doesn't request those permissions.

§04How We Use It

  • To create and secure your account, and let you log back in.
  • To store and display your members, trial visitors, and fee records inside the app.
  • To generate PDF fee receipts on your device, which you choose to share (e.g. via WhatsApp) using your phone's own share menu — these PDFs are created locally and aren't sent to our servers.
  • To send renewal, fee-due, or trial-reminder push notifications at the times you configure.
  • To diagnose crashes, fix bugs, and understand which features are actually used, via Crashlytics and Analytics.
  • To communicate important service updates, such as changes to your trial or account status.

§05Storage & Security

Account and business data is stored using Firebase Authentication and Cloud Firestore, both operated by Google, on Google Cloud infrastructure. Data in transit is encrypted, and access to your gym's records in Firestore is restricted to your authenticated account.

No online storage or transmission method is 100% secure. While we apply reasonable technical safeguards, we can't guarantee absolute security of information you submit.

§06Sharing of Data

We don't sell your data or your members' data, and we don't share it with advertisers — the app carries no ad SDK.

Data is shared only with the infrastructure providers needed to run the app:

  • Google / Firebase — authentication, database hosting, push notifications, crash reporting and analytics.

We may also disclose information if required by law, or to protect the rights, safety, or property of Gym Alerts, our users, or the public.

§07Your Rights & Choices

  • Access & correction: you can view and edit your account, gym profile, and member/trial records directly in the app at any time.
  • Notifications: you can turn reminder notifications off, or change their time slots, from the app's settings.
  • Deletion: you can request deletion of your account and associated gym data by contacting us at the email below. We'll process deletion requests within a reasonable time, subject to any legal retention requirements.

§08Data Retention

We retain your account and gym data for as long as your account remains active, so the app keeps working the way you expect. If you delete your account, we remove your account and gym profile records; residual copies may persist briefly in backups before being purged.

§09Children's Privacy

Gym Alerts is a business tool intended for gym owners and operators, not for use by children. We don't knowingly collect account data from anyone under 18. If a gym owner enters a member's or trial visitor's details who happens to be a minor, that data is provided and controlled by the gym owner as described in §02.

§10Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy as the app evolves. If changes are significant, we'll make that clear in the app or via the update's release notes. The "Effective date" above always reflects the latest version.
