This Privacy Policy explains how the Stride mobile application
(the “App”, package name com.technoorstudio.stride) handles
information. Stride is a step and activity tracker developed by
TechNoor Studio (the “Developer”, “we”, “us”).
We are committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about the limited
data the App uses.
Stride is designed to work locally on your device. Your step history and personal settings stay on your phone. We do not operate our own servers and we do not sell your personal data.
The following information is created and stored only on your device (in the App’s local database and private app settings). It is never uploaded to us or shared with third parties:
This data is used to display your progress, calculate distance and calories, drive the home-screen widget, and send the reminders and goal alerts you enable. Uninstalling the App permanently removes all of this locally stored data from your device.
The App requests the following Android permissions, each for a specific purpose:
| Permission | Why it is used |
|---|---|
Physical activity (ACTIVITY_RECOGNITION) |
To read your device’s built-in step-counter sensor so the App can count your steps. Step readings are processed on-device only. |
| Foreground service & health service ( FOREGROUND_SERVICE, FOREGROUND_SERVICE_HEALTH) |
To keep counting steps in the background via an ongoing notification, without you needing to keep the App open. |
Notifications (POST_NOTIFICATIONS) |
To show the ongoing step-counter notification, optional daily reminders, and the walk-goal alarm. |
Run at startup (RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED) |
To resume step tracking automatically after your device restarts. |
Exact alarms (SCHEDULE_EXACT_ALARM) |
To deliver your chosen daily reminder at the correct time. |
| Internet & network state ( INTERNET, ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE) |
To load ads and send anonymous analytics and crash reports through the third-party services described below. |
Advertising ID (AD_ID) |
Used by Google AdMob to serve ads. See section 3. |
Step-counter and step-detector hardware sensors are optional, so the App remains usable on devices that do not have them.
The App uses the following third-party services provided by Google. These services may collect information as described in their own privacy policies. We do not receive or store your personal health data on any server.
Stride displays ads (app-open, interstitial, and native ads) supplied by Google AdMob. AdMob may access your device’s advertising identifier (Advertising ID) and related information to serve and measure ads. You can reset or limit your Advertising ID in your device’s settings under Google → Ads.
We use Firebase Analytics to understand, in an aggregated and anonymous way, how the App is used — for example which screens are opened and how often. This helps us improve the App. It does not include your step history, weight, or other personal health data.
We use Firebase Crashlytics to automatically collect crash reports and diagnostic information (such as the type of error and device/OS details) when the App crashes or encounters a handled error. This helps us find and fix stability problems.
For more information about how Google handles data collected through these services, see:
We do not sell your personal data. Your on-device step history, weight, and settings are never transmitted to us. The only data leaving your device is the anonymous analytics, crash diagnostics, and advertising data handled by the Google services described in section 3, in accordance with Google’s policies.
Data stored on your device remains until you delete it within the App (for example by resetting your day) or until you uninstall the App. Data processed by Google’s services is retained according to Google’s own retention policies.
Stride is not directed to children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can address it.
Your activity data and settings are stored in the App’s private storage area on your device, which is not accessible to other apps under normal Android security. No method of electronic storage or transmission is completely secure, but we take reasonable measures to protect your information.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated “Last updated” date. Continued use of the App after changes means you accept the revised policy.
