Privacy statement

Last updated: 17 August 2026

This statement covers the Athverge app and this website. Athverge is the app; Fit&Focus Coaching is the practice behind it and the data controller. An app that tracks your weight, your food, your heart rate and your blood pressure processes health data, and strict rules apply to that. Below is exactly what we record, why, for how long, and who else sees it.

1.Who is responsible

Fit&Focus Coaching, publisher of the Athverge app, is responsible for processing your data. Questions, requests and complaints can go to info@fitenfocuscoaching.nl.

Registered address: TODO: vestigingsadres. Chamber of Commerce: TODO: KvK-nummer. VAT: TODO: btw-nummer.

2.What we process

What we record depends on what you use. Everything below exists because you entered it or because you switched on an integration yourself.

  • Account data: your name and email address, and your sign-in details.
  • Nutrition: your food diary, meals, macro and micro values, water intake, and the hunger or energy tag you can set per meal.
  • Training: your sessions, exercises, sets, weights, reps, rest times and personal records.
  • Cardio and location: cardio sessions and, if you record an outdoor session with GPS, your route. A privacy zone applies around your home so a route does not start or end there. Location is used only during a session, never in the background.
  • Health values: weight, circumference measurements, blood pressure, glucose, resting heart rate, sleep and steps.
  • Photos: your profile photo and your progress and check-in photos. These are optional. Location and camera information (EXIF) is stripped from the photo before it is stored.
  • Messages: the chat with your coach, if you have one.
  • Voice notes: audio your coach records from the chat. Your own microphone is not used unless you start a recording yourself.
  • Wearable data: whatever the integration you enabled passes on — steps, sleep, heart rate and calories burned.
  • Crash and error reports: technical data about a crash. This processing starts only after you have given permission, and can be switched off again.
  • Purchase data: which subscription tier you hold and its status. Payment details such as your card number never reach us; those stay with the store.
  • On this website: only your email address, if you sign up to be told about the launch.

3.What we use it for

  • Running the app: your diary, your programmes, your graphs and syncing across devices.
  • Giving you insight: trends, weekly reports, progress comparisons and the autoregulation that adjusts your calories or your volume.
  • Guidance, only if you have a coach: your coach can follow what you log and respond to it.
  • Managing your account and determining access to paid features.
  • Keeping the app stable, using crash reports — and only with your consent.

5.Wearables and integrations

Athverge can read data from Withings, Polar, Google Health and Health Connect. Such a connection is only made if you switch it on yourself and approve access at that provider, and you can revoke it at any time — in the app and at the provider. We only read; we write nothing back, and we do not request more fields than we display.

A Polar chest strap can read along live over bluetooth during a session. That measurement runs directly between the strap and your phone.

6.Who else sees your data

We do not sell your data, we do not trade it, and we do not use it for advertising. There are no advertising or tracking SDKs in the app. We do rely on a small number of suppliers who work strictly on our instructions:

  • Our hosting provider, which runs the database and storage for the app inside de Europese Unie.
  • Our crash reporting service, and only after you have given permission.
  • The app store and the subscription service that process purchases and tell us which tier you hold.
  • Our push service, to deliver your notifications.
  • Your own coach, if you have an active connection with one. Without a coach, nobody else sees your data.

7.If you have a coach

You create a coach connection yourself, with an invitation code or by approving a request. From that moment your coach can see what is needed to guide you: your sessions, your food diary, your measurements, your check-ins, and the signals the app raises when something deviates from what you agreed.

You can break the connection. After that your coach no longer sees your new data.

8.How long we keep it

Your data stays for as long as your account exists. If you delete your account, we delete your data and your files within thirty days, including your photos in storage.

Billing records are kept for as long as statutory tax retention requires. They are detached from your account and are no longer used to identify you inside the app.

Your launch-message signup is deleted after that message has been sent, or sooner if you ask.

9.Security

All traffic between the app and our servers runs over an encrypted connection. In the database, access control applies per row: a user can only reach their own data, and a coach only that of clients with an active connection. EXIF data is stripped from photos before they are stored, so no location remains in a progress photo.

10.Your rights

You have the right to access, correct, delete and take your data with you, and to withdraw your consent. Two of those you can carry out yourself without asking us:

  • Export: the app gives you an export of all your tables.
  • Deletion: in the app under More → Privacy and data → Delete account, or without the app via the account deletion page.
  • Other requests: email info@fitenfocuscoaching.nl. We respond within one month.
  • If you disagree with us, you can file a complaint with the Dutch Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens.

11.Age

Athverge is intended for users aged eighteen and over. We do not target children and do not knowingly collect data from children.

12.Changes

If the app changes in a way that affects this statement, we update it and the date at the top changes. For a material change we say so in the app.
