Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 27, 2026

What we collect

Account details you give us (email, password hash, date of birth, post code, gender). Profile content (name, bio, photo, gym, workout types, schedule, fitness goal, training style, experience level). Activity (workout posts, requests, swipes, matches, messages, session ratings). Device data needed to deliver the app (IP, app version, basic crash diagnostics).

How we use it

We use this data to power matching, show you compatible lifters near your gym, deliver chat, prevent abuse, and keep the service running. We do not sell your personal data.

Who can see what

Other LIFT LNK members can see your profile, today’s workout, online status, average rating, and any messages you send to them. Reports and blocks are private.

Permissions on your device

Camera & photo library — only when you choose to add or update a profile picture. Notifications — only if you opt in (used for new requests/messages). We never access these in the background.

Data retention

Your data is retained while your account is active. Deleting your account from Settings removes your profile, posts, requests, swipes and messages within 30 days.

Your choices

Edit or remove information any time in Edit Profile. Block or report a user from their profile. Delete your account in Settings.

Security

Passwords are hashed with Argon2id, transport is HTTPS only, and JWT tokens authorise every request. We use rate limits to deter abuse.

Children

LIFT LNK is for adults. If you believe a minor is using the service please contact us so we can investigate.

Contact & data requests

Email liftlnkfeedback@gmail.com for access or correction requests. To delete your account, use Settings → Delete account in the app, or request it at /delete-account.
