Who we are

TrainerBuddy is a diet and workout app for personal trainers and people who train on their own, run by NiKeSo (Niranjan Sonune), Pune, India. Contact: [email protected] or WhatsApp +91 95116 31367.

What we collect

• Account details: your name, email address and mobile number, used to sign in and verify your account.
• Coaching data you enter: client names and phone numbers, age, height, weight, goals, food preferences, diet plans, workouts, check-ins, measurements, body-scan readings and progress photos.
• Meal photos and descriptions you choose to log, so the app can estimate calories and protein.
• Branding you upload, such as your logo and coach name, which appears on your PDFs.
• Plan and payment records: which plan you are on and the UPI reference you give us. We never see or store your UPI PIN or bank details.
• Basic technical data: device type, browser and error logs, used to keep the service working and secure.

How we use it

• To run the app: build plans, save your clients' records, make PDFs and progress pages, and sync across your devices.
• To send sign-in codes, verification emails and reminders you switch on.
• To answer support requests.

We do not sell your data, we do not show ads, and we do not use your clients' data for marketing.

Who processes it for us

• Google Firebase for sign-in and email verification.
• Cloudflare for hosting the app and storing your data.
• AI services (for example OpenRouter, Groq or Inception) only when you use meal-photo or meal-text estimates. The photo or text is sent to work out calories and protein, and is not used by us for anything else.
• SMS gateway to deliver one-time sign-in codes to your phone.

Your clients' data

If you are a coach, you decide what you enter about your clients and you should have their consent. A client's progress page can only be seen by people who have its private link. You can delete any client, and their records go with them.

Health information

Weight, measurements, body-scan readings and food logs are health-related. They are visible only inside your account, and on progress links you choose to share. TrainerBuddy gives general nutrition and fitness guidance and is not medical advice.

Keeping and deleting data

We keep your data while your account is open. You can ask us to delete your account and all its data at any time; see Delete your account. We delete it within 30 days, except records we must keep by law, such as payment records for tax.

Security

Data is sent over encrypted connections (HTTPS) and each account's data is kept private to that account.

Children

TrainerBuddy is meant for adults. Coaches who train people under 18 should have a parent or guardian's consent before entering their details.

Changes

If we change this policy we will update the date at the top, and tell you in the app if the change is important.
