Account information. When you sign in with Google, we receive your name, email address, and a unique identifier. We use this to create and manage your account.

Workout and fitness data. The app stores workouts you create, workout sessions you complete (duration, timestamps), and cadence observations (steps per minute). This data powers workout recommendations and tracks your progress.

Music preferences. We store your playlist configurations, volume settings, track play history, and skipped or excluded tracks. This helps us match music to your running cadence.

App preferences. Settings such as measurement units, metronome mode, and onboarding progress are stored to personalize your experience.

3. Legal Basis for Processing

We process personal data to provide and improve the Namio Run service. The legal bases for processing include:

• Performance of a contract– to create and manage your account and provide the core functionality of the app.
• Legitimate interests– to analyze app usage, improve features, and maintain service reliability.
• Legal obligations– where required by applicable law.

4. How We Store Your Data

Your data is stored in two places:

All cloud data is stored under your unique user account and is not accessible to other users.

Some data may be processed on servers located outside the United Kingdom or European Economic Area by our service providers. These providers operate under appropriate safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses.
