Data HealthBase Accesses
❤️
Apple Health — Workouts
📍
Apple Health — GPS Routes
For workouts that include a GPS route, HealthBase reads the recorded coordinates to draw maps, compute elevation profiles, and calculate speed. Route coordinates are also used to determine the city and region where a workout took place, using Apple's on-device reverse geocoding. No coordinates are sent to third-party servers.
👟
Apple Health — Steps
HealthBase reads your daily step count to display the 7-day steps chart on the Stats screen and to show steps-per-minute data on individual workouts.
🔗
Strava
If you choose to connect Strava, HealthBase communicates directly with the Strava API using API credentials you supply. No Strava data passes through any intermediary server operated by HealthBase. The app stores your Strava access and refresh tokens in the iOS Keychain on your device. You can disconnect Strava at any time from Settings.
📷
Camera
The camera is used only when you scan a barcode in the Nutrition screen to look up food information. Camera access is requested at the moment you initiate a scan and is not used for any other purpose.
🥗
Nutrition Log
Food entries you log are stored locally on your device using SwiftData. This data is not shared or transmitted anywhere. If you have iCloud Backup enabled on your device, this data may be included in your personal iCloud backup under Apple's standard backup policies.

Health Data
HealthKit data is accessed with your explicit permission and is governed by Apple's Health privacy rules. HealthBase only requests permission to read the specific data types it uses. You can review and revoke these permissions at any time in iPhone Settings → Health → Data Access & Devices → HealthBase.
HealthBase does not write any data back to Apple Health.
Children's Privacy
HealthBase is not directed at children under the age of 13. The app does not knowingly collect any information from children.
