Spodi Privacy Policy
Effective date: October 13, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how Spodi collects, uses, and protects your personal data when you use the website spodi.ru, its web app, and the Spodi app for iOS (the "Service").
This Policy is not a consent to personal data processing. The data needed to run the Service is processed on the basis of your contract with us — the Terms of Service and the Offer (Article 6(1)(5) of Federal Law 152-FZ). Where the law requires separate consent — newsletters, analytics cookies, sharing data with your coach, health information you share with the AI Coach or from the Health app (Apple Health) — we ask for it separately: with a checkbox at registration, in settings, on your first message to the AI Coach or when you connect Apple Health, through the cookie banner (Section 7), or by accepting a coach invitation. The newsletter consent text is at spodi.ru/en/consent.

| Workout data | Exercises, sets, weight, duration, notes, body weight | Core functionality |
| Media | Set videos you record and their poster frames | Reviewing your technique in the app. The Operator does not use these recordings to establish identity, so they are not biometric personal data under Article 11 of Federal Law 152-FZ |

| Coach interaction | Coach-client link, sharing settings, assignments, comments, plan adherence metrics | Running coach mode |
| Technical | IP address, device type, cookies | Service operation, security, traffic analytics |
| Auth providers | External IDs: VK ID and Yandex ID for signing in; Apple ID and Telegram only to confirm your identity when migrating an account created earlier | Sign-in and account recovery |
Data sources: provided by you during registration and service usage, received from connected authentication providers (your choice), and collected automatically from your device and browser.
Health information.How you feel, pain, injuries, pregnancy and symptoms during training that you yourself tell the AI Coach are health information (Article 10 of Federal Law 152-FZ). It is processed only with your separate consent (Section 3) and only to answer you in the chat and to choose a safe load. Sharing such information is optional, including when answering the AI Coach's follow-up questions about how you feel, pain or injuries. Such information is not used for any other purpose.
Apple Health.In the iOS app you can connect the Health app (Apple Health). With your permission the Service then reads workouts, active energy, weight, height, body fat percentage, lean body mass, waist circumference, heart rate, date of birth and sex, nutrition (calories, protein, fat, carbohydrates, water) and recovery (resting heart rate, heart rate variability, sleep, steps) from it, and writes workouts (with distance for cardio), active energy, weight and height from the Service to it. You choose which of these to share in the iOS access sheet and can change it in the Health app settings. This data is health information: it is processed only with the same separate consent (Section 3), to keep track of workouts and body measurements and to choose a training load; it is not shared with third parties other than Cloud.ru for the AI Coach's replies, and it is not used for advertising. When you disconnect Apple Health in the Service or withdraw the consent, it is deleted from the Operator's servers.

3. Legal Basis
- Contract performance (Article 6(1)(5) of Federal Law 152-FZ) — account, profile, workouts, videos, subscription and payments, export, workout notifications, coach mode, AI Coach conversations (except health information), and technical data (IP address, device type, session cookies) for the availability and security of the Service: everything needed to run the Service as described in the Terms of Service and the Offer.

4. Data Sharing
We do not sell your data. We share with:
- Yandex Cloud (Russia) — hosting and storage
- Yandex Object Storage (Russia) — storage of avatars and set videos
- Yandex Postbox (Russia) — email delivery: service emails and, with your consent, newsletters
- Yandex Metrica (Russia) — anonymised traffic statistics of the Service, with your consent (see Section 7)
- Cloud.ru (Cloud Technologies LLC, Russia) — running the AI Coach: chat messages and context (gender, age, height, body weight, goals, questionnaire, workout history and, with Apple Health connected, a summary of Health app data) are processed by language models hosted on servers in Russia, on the Operator's instructions. Cloud.ru does not use this data to train models
- VK ID / Yandex ID — signing in (your choice)
- Apple ID / Telegram — confirming your identity when migrating an account created earlier. The link to the previous provider stays on the account after migration, so that a returning user is recognised instead of getting a second, empty account
- The coach you choose — your name and avatar, workout history, exercises, sets, statistics, records, workout and exercise notes, once you accept the invitation and only while the link is active. Set notes and videos only when you switch that sharing on separately. Sharing stops when you revoke access
- Apple Push Notification service, your browser's push service — delivering notifications, if you turned them on
Cross-border transfer
Personal data is processed and stored in the Russian Federation. A cross-border transfer occurs only when notifications are delivered, and only if you turned them on: the device token or browser subscription endpoint, an internal delivery identifier, and the notification text are passed to the delivery service (Apple Push Notification service for the iOS app; your browser's push service for the web version). The notification text may contain a coach's name or the name of a generated export file.
You can turn notifications off in the Service settings; the transfer stops when you do. No other category of personal data leaves the Russian Federation.
5. Storage and Security
- Data stored in the Russian Federation (Yandex Cloud)
- HTTPS/TLS, bcrypt passwords, AES-256-GCM for 2FA secrets
- After you delete your account, the data needed to provide the Service — including videos and poster frames — is kept in a restricted mode and erased within 30 days at the latest
- Payment records are kept separately, in the minimum necessary form, for the retention period that tax law prescribes for accounting documents. They are not used to provide the Service, to personalize it, or for marketing
- AI Coach conversations are kept until you delete the chat or your account; a deleted chat is erased together with its messages and ratings after 90 days. The context snapshot saved with a dislike is erased after 180 days; the rating itself stays in the chat
6. Your Rights
