1. Introduction

Welcome to OutPace ("we," "our," or "us"). We are committed to protecting your privacy and personal information. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our fitness challenge platform at outpace.fit (the "Service").

How we use Garmin data: We use your Garmin activity data solely to:

Update your challenge leaderboards automatically
Track your progress in fitness challenges you voluntarily join

Your Garmin data is stored securely in our database and is never shared with third parties or used for advertising purposes. You can disconnect your Garmin account at any time from your dashboard settings, which will immediately stop future data collection.

Apple HealthKit data is read from your device only when the app is active and you have granted permission.

We do not store raw HealthKit data on our servers beyond what is needed for challenge tracking. HealthKit data is never used for advertising, marketing, or sold to third parties. You can revoke HealthKit access at any time in your iPhone Settings > Privacy & Security > Health.

Within Challenges

When you join a challenge, your display name, profile photo, activity data (such as distance, duration, and activity type), and leaderboard ranking are visible to other challenge participants.

Public Challenges

Some challenges may be publicly accessible via a share link. If you join a public challenge, your display name, profile photo, activity data, and leaderboard ranking within that challenge may be viewable by anyone with the challenge link — including non-registered visitors. By joining a public challenge, you acknowledge and consent to this visibility. If you prefer to keep your participation private, you may join only private challenges or adjust your profile settings accordingly.
