Privacy Policy

Last updated:

Last updated: 26 September 2026 | Version 1.10

The Short Version

Pelaris is an AI-powered fitness coaching app. Here’s what you need to know:

  • We collect your profile, training data, and body measurements to generate personalised programs and coaching.
  • Your photos vanish. Body analysis photos are processed in memory and immediately discarded, never stored, never seen by a human.
  • Your identity is hidden from AI. We strip personal identifiers before AI processing. The AI never knows who you are.
  • Your data is stored in Sydney, Australia (australia-southeast1) during normal operation.
  • We never sell your data. We only share it with the service providers that run Pelaris, or with a third party (like an AI assistant or a fitness service) when you choose to connect one.
  • AI never trains on you. Your data is never used to train or improve any AI model, ours or Google’s.
  • You own the delete button. Delete your account and everything goes, profile, programs, measurements, conversations.
  • No ads. No data selling. We make money from subscriptions, not your data.

For the full details, read on.


1. Who We Are

Pelaris (“we”, “us”, “our”) is an AI-powered adaptive fitness coaching platform. We are the data controller responsible for your personal information.

Privacy Contact: Email: privacy@pelaris.io

If you have any questions about this policy or how we handle your data, please contact us at the email above.

Pelaris also stores the full exercise record Polar sends (device model and device id, training load, whether a route was recorded, and detailed sport type), alongside the mapped fields (sport, start time, duration, distance, average and maximum heart rate, calories). This full record is retained with your account and deleted with it.To understand training load and adapt your coaching program
Wahoo workout dataSport type, duration, power, heart rate, cadence, distanceTo understand training load and adapt your coaching program
Health platform activity data (Apple Health / Health Connect)Workout summaries (workout type, start and end time, duration, distance, and on iOS energy burned) and each workout’s average and maximum heart rate, read from Apple Health (iOS) or Health Connect (Android) with your device-level permission. Heart rate and distance are read only for the time span of each workout. Summaries only, no GPS or route data, no steps or sleepTo complete matching planned sessions, show distance, pace, heart rate and effort zones on your sessions, understand training load, and adapt your coaching program
Subscription dataYour plan (Beach, Pelaris Ocean or Pelaris Horizon), its status, purchase and renewal dates, and the platform you subscribed throughTo run your paid plan if you buy one. Card and bank details are handled by the payment platform (Stripe through RevenueCat’s checkout on the web, the Apple App Store on iOS, Google Play on Android), never by Pelaris. We never see or store your full payment card number.

Paid plans, Pelaris Ocean and Pelaris Horizon, have been available since 19/09/2026. If you never buy one, the only subscription data on your profile is the name of your free plan, Beach, and no payment data is collected at all. Everyone who joined before 19/09/2026 is a founding member, is never billed, and has no payment data with us.

4. How Our AI Works

Pelaris uses artificial intelligence (Google Gemini via Vertex AI) to power three core features:

4.1 Training Program Generation

The AI considers your goals, training history, fitness level, available equipment, chosen methodology, body measurements, and feedback to generate personalised, periodized training programs.

If you connect your Strava account, Pelaris imports a summary of your completed activities including sport type, date, duration, distance, and available performance metrics (heart rate, pace, cadence, power, elevation). GPS coordinates and route data are not imported. This data helps the AI understand your recent training load and adapt your programs accordingly.

If you use the Pelaris mobile app and connect Apple Health (iOS) or Health Connect (Android), Pelaris reads your workout data from that platform, with your permission granted at the operating-system level. On Android, Pelaris requests three read-only Health Connect permissions: Exercise (to complete the matching planned session and add the workout to your training history), Distance (to show the distance and pace of each workout) and Heart rate (to show each workout’s average and maximum heart rate and effort zones, and to help your coach judge how hard a session was). On iOS, Pelaris reads Workouts and Heart rate from Apple Health for the same purposes. Heart rate and distance are read only for the time span of each workout, access is read-only, and GPS coordinates, route data, steps and sleep are never read. This data becomes part of your training history: it helps the AI understand your recent training load (as a summary of your last 28 days of training), automatically completes matching planned sessions, and informs your programs.

4.2 AI Coaching

The AI Coach responds to your questions and requests, suggests exercise alternatives, logs health notes, and adapts your training. Coach conversations are processed in real time.

4.3 Coach Memory

The AI Coach remembers certain things you tell it across conversations to provide continuity:

  • What it remembers: Training preferences, health notes (e.g., “I have a shoulder injury”), equipment availability, and general coaching context you share.
  • Where it’s stored: Coach memory is stored in your account data in Firestore (australia-southeast1), the same way your training data is stored.
  • How long it remembers: Coach memory persists as long as your account is active.
  • Your control: You can ask the Coach to forget specific information at any time (say “forget my shoulder injury” or similar). You can also delete all coach memory by deleting your account.

Coach memory is subject to the same privacy protections as all your other data, it is never shared, never used for model training, and is permanently deleted when you delete your account.

4.4 Body Composition Analysis

When you upload a photo, AI estimates body measurements (shoulder, waist, hip circumferences) and classifies your body type. The photo is processed in memory only and immediately discarded.

What the AI Receives

Before your data reaches any AI model, we run it through our privacy scrubber. This strips out your name, email address, and other personal identifiers. The AI processes your fitness data without knowing who you are.

What the AI Does NOT Do

  • Does not store your photos. Photos exist in temporary server memory during processing only.
  • Does not train on your data. Pelaris uses Google’s pre-trained Gemini models via Vertex AI under enterprise terms. Google does not use your data to train or improve its AI models. Your prompts and responses are not retained by Google beyond the processing duration.
  • Does not diagnose medical conditions. AI outputs are fitness guidance, not medical advice.
  • Does not make decisions you can’t override. You can modify or reject any AI recommendation.

AI Transparency

All AI-generated content in Pelaris is clearly identified as AI-generated. Training programs, coaching responses, and body estimates are automated recommendations, no human reviews them before they reach you. If you believe an AI output is inaccurate or unsafe, you can contact us.


5. Body Analysis & Photo Processing

This section covers our highest-sensitivity data handling.

How Photos Are Handled

  1. You select a photo
  2. Photo is compressed (< 1MB) on your device
  3. Transmitted securely (HTTPS/TLS) to our processing server in Australia
  4. Server decodes photo in temporary memory (RAM only)
  5. AI extracts approximate body measurements
  6. Photo buffer is immediately released and garbage collected
  7. Only numerical measurements are returned and stored

Your photo is:

  • Held in temporary server memory for seconds only
  • Never written to any storage system, database, log file, or backup
  • Never viewed by any Pelaris employee, contractor, or third party
  • Never transmitted to any party other than the secure AI processing endpoint
  • Never used to train or improve any AI model

What IS stored: Numerical measurements only, shoulder circumference, waist circumference, hip circumference, weight estimate, height, body type classification, and training recommendations. These are stored as health information in your account.

Before your first body analysis, we will ask for your explicit consent. You can use Pelaris without ever using the body analysis feature. You can withdraw consent and delete all stored measurements at any time.

Apple App Store and Google PlayApple, GoogleIn-app purchases in the iOS and Android appsHandled entirely by Apple or Google under your store account and privacy policy. Pelaris receives the purchase receipt and subscription status, never your payment details.No

All Google services are used under Google Cloud Platform enterprise terms, which explicitly state: “Google will not use Customer Data to train or improve Google’s generalized AI/ML models.”

Pelaris uses the Strava API to import activity data for connected athletes. By using the Strava integration, you acknowledge that Strava may monitor and collect certain usage data related to how Pelaris accesses the Strava API, in accordance with Strava’s own privacy policy and API Agreement.

Pelaris uses the Polar AccessLink API and Wahoo Cloud API for the same purpose. Wahoo may use data sent to the Wahoo Platform for its own business purposes per the Wahoo API Agreement.

Apple HealthKit and Google Health Connect work differently from the cloud APIs above: they are on-device platform APIs, not cloud services. When you connect one, Pelaris reads workout summaries and heart rate directly on your device, only after you grant permission in iOS or Android, and uploads that data to your Pelaris account. No Pelaris data is sent to Apple or Google through these integrations, and Apple and Google do not act as processors of your Pelaris data. Access is read-only: Pelaris never writes data back to Apple Health or Health Connect. You can revoke Pelaris’s access at any time in your device settings, or disconnect in the app (Profile > Connected Apps), where you can also choose to delete the imported data.

AI Platform Integrations (MCP)

Pelaris can optionally connect to third-party AI assistants (such as Claude and ChatGPT) via the Model Context Protocol (MCP), so you can view and manage your training through an assistant you already use. This connection is entirely optional. If you never connect an AI assistant, none of the sharing described here occurs.

How the connection works: Data is shared only after you explicitly connect Pelaris to an AI assistant through OAuth 2.0 authorisation. During authorisation you are shown exactly which permissions (scopes) the assistant is requesting, and you must approve before any data flows. Pelaris uses a pseudonymous account identifier for the connection and does not send your email address or Firebase user ID to the assistant.

Permissions (scopes) you can grant: Access is controlled by scopes, each of which you approve at connection time:

  • Read your profile (profile:read). Your basic training profile, such as experience level, equipment, and availability.
  • Read your training (training:read). Programs, planned and completed sessions, session details, benchmarks, goals, and progress.
  • Manage your training (training:write). Create, modify, or delete planned and completed sessions, log workouts, swap exercises, generate programs and weekly plans, complete intake, manage goals, and submit check-ins and feedback.
  • Read your health data (health:read). Body composition data (measurements such as weight, waist, hip, shoulder, chest, height and muscle mass, ratios, archetype, and assessments) and injuries.
  • Manage your health data (health:write). Record body benchmarks and injuries.
  • Read coaching insights (coach:read). Coaching context and insights.
  • Stay connected (offline_access). Lets the assistant refresh its access without you re-authorising each session.

If you grant a “manage” (write) scope, the connected assistant can add to, change, or delete the corresponding data in your account. Most AI assistants ask you to confirm before they run an action, but that confirmation happens inside the assistant, not inside Pelaris. You control what an assistant can do by choosing which scopes to grant, and you can revoke access at any time.

Your control: You can see every connected AI assistant, the permissions it holds, and when it was last used, in the app (Profile > Connected Apps). You can disconnect any assistant at any time, which immediately revokes all of its access tokens so it can no longer read or modify your data. You can reconnect later with fresh consent. Data an assistant has already received is retained and handled under that assistant’s own privacy policy, not ours.

What Pelaris does NOT do:

  • We do not store your AI assistant conversation data.
  • We do not share your data with AI assistants without your explicit authorisation.
  • We do not sell your data to AI platform operators.
  • We do not grant an assistant any permission you did not approve.

Platform privacy policies: Each AI assistant has its own privacy policy governing how it handles data received from tools like Pelaris. We encourage you to review:

We Never Share Your Data With

  • Advertisers or ad networks
  • Data brokers
  • Social media platforms
  • Insurance companies
  • Employers
  • Any party for marketing purposes

Law Enforcement

We will only disclose personal data to law enforcement or government authorities if:

  • We are legally compelled to do so (court order, subpoena, or mandatory legal process)
  • We believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to prevent imminent harm

If legally permitted, we will notify you before any disclosure.


7. Data Storage & Security

Where Your Data Lives

16. United States: Consumer Health Data (Washington & California)

This section applies if you are a resident of the United States. It supplements the rest of this policy and, for the data it covers, controls if there is any conflict.

Consumer Health Data

Some of the data Pelaris collects is consumer health data, defined broadly under laws such as Washington’s My Health My Data Act (MHMDA) as information that identifies your past, present, or future physical or mental health. For Pelaris, consumer health data includes:

  • Your fitness and training data (workouts, sessions, exercise logs, RPE, and completion status)
  • Your body-metric data (height, weight, body measurements such as shoulder, waist, hip, chest circumference, muscle mass, ratios, archetype, and body composition estimates)
  • Injuries, health notes, and check-in responses you share
  • Data imported from connected fitness services (for example heart rate and other physiological metrics)
  • Data read from health platforms you connect (Apple Health or Health Connect workout summaries and heart rate)
  • Consent to collect. We collect your consumer health data only after you provide affirmative consent, which you give when you create your account, complete intake, or use a health-related feature (such as body analysis). You can decline health-related features and still use core parts of Pelaris.
  • Separate consent to share. We do not sell your consumer health data, and we do not share it with third parties except (a) with service providers and processors who help us operate Pelaris under contract (see Section 6), or (b) at your specific direction. Connecting a third-party AI assistant (see “AI Platform Integrations (MCP)” in Section 6) is a sharing action that requires your separate, affirmative authorisation at the time you connect, and you choose exactly which data the assistant may access.
  • No sale. We do not, and will not, sell your consumer health data. We do not use it for targeted advertising.

Your Rights

If you are a US resident, you may:

  • Withdraw consent to the collection or sharing of your consumer health data at any time. Withdrawing consent stops future processing but does not affect processing that already occurred.
  • Access and confirm what consumer health data we hold about you and with whom we have shared it.
  • Delete your consumer health data specifically, separate from deleting your whole account. On a valid deletion request we will delete the health data we hold and direct our processors to do the same, subject to narrow legal exceptions.
  • Not be discriminated against for exercising any of these rights.

California residents (CCPA/CPRA): In addition to the above, you have the right to know, access, correct, delete, and obtain a portable copy of your personal information, and to limit the use of sensitive personal information (which includes health data). We do not sell or “share” (as CCPA/CPRA defines those terms for cross-context behavioural advertising) your personal information. You may use an authorised agent to submit a request, and you will not be discriminated against for exercising your rights.

How to Exercise These Rights

To exercise any right in this section, or to appeal a decision we make about a request, contact our privacy contact at privacy@pelaris.io. We will verify your request and respond within the timeframes required by applicable law. Washington residents may also complain to the Washington State Attorney General, and California residents to the California Privacy Protection Agency or California Attorney General.
