This Privacy Policy explains how SoyApps, an independent developer in Japan (“we”, “us”), handles your information in Widgethy (“the app”). Widgethy is a health metrics widget app that shows Apple Health data on your Home Screen, Lock Screen, and Apple Watch face.
Summary
| Topic | How the app handles it |
|---|---|
| Account | Not required |
| Data you create | Widget settings on your device only |
| Apple Health | Read-only; never written, never sent off your device |
| Our servers | None |
| Analytics | Google Analytics (no health values) |
| Crash reports | None |
| Advertising | None |
| Tracking | None |
| Purchases | Widgethy Pro subscription, through the App Store |
Data the App Uses
Apple Health (HealthKit)
Widgethy asks for read-only access to the Apple Health data you choose to share, which may include:
- Steps, active calories, exercise minutes, and other activity data
- Heart rate, resting heart rate, and heart rate variability
- Sleep analysis
- Body measurements (weight, height, and BMI)
- Vital signs (blood oxygen, body temperature, and blood pressure)
- Nutrition (caffeine and water intake)
- Reproductive health
- Mental wellbeing (mindful minutes)
Widgethy only reads Health data and never writes to it. Health data is processed on your device and is never sent to any server.
Widget Settings
When you create widgets, the app saves the metric types you select, display preferences (type and appearance), and cached metric values used to draw the widgets.
Apple Watch
On Apple Watch, complications read Health data directly on the watch. The metric shown in each complication is saved by watchOS as part of your watch face settings. The Watch app does not exchange data with the iPhone app and sends nothing to external servers.
Where Your Data Is Stored
Your widget settings, cached metric values, and app preferences (such as onboarding state) are stored on your device, where only the app and its widgets can access them. This data is not synchronized to any cloud service. Deleting the app removes it.
Third-Party Services
| Purpose | Who receives it | What is sent |
|---|---|---|
| Usage analytics | Google (Google Analytics) | How the app is used, such as which kinds of widgets you create and whether you subscribe, and device and app information |
Health values are never included. No Health data (step counts, heart rate, sleep, and so on) is sent to Google or anyone else. Analytics data is not linked to your identity and is not used for advertising. The widgets and the Apple Watch app do not send analytics. See Google’s Privacy Policy and how Google uses information from apps that use its services.
Advertising
The app does not display advertisements and does not use advertising identifiers.
Purchases
Purchases are processed by Apple. We do not receive or store your payment information.
Data We Do Not Collect
- Your Health data
- Personal identification information (name, email, phone number, address)
- Advertising identifiers
- Location data
Your Choices and Deleting Your Data
- You can change which Health data the app reads at any time in the Health app or in Settings > Health Permissions in the app.
- You can remove widgets from the app at any time.
- Deleting the app removes all widget settings and cached values.
Data Security
Your data stays on your device and is protected by your device’s own security measures (passcode, biometric authentication, and encryption). Health data is also protected by Apple’s HealthKit protections.
Children’s Privacy
Widgethy is not directed at children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can delete it.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will post the new version on this page and change the “Last updated” date.
