Privacy Policy
This policy explains what BayForge Fit collects, why we use it, and the choices available to you.
Effective September 5, 2026Information you provide
We may collect your name, email address, age, sex used for estimates, height, weight, selected body frame, fitness goals, dietary preferences, allergy exclusions, max-repetition results, workout completion, streaks, cycle counts, mobile number and reminder preferences when you opt in, city for optional matching, buddy choices, referral code, feedback, community posts, reward selections, apparel size and color, and fulfillment information you provide.
Account data and information stored on your device
Your BayForge member profile is separate from the verified sign-in method used to reach it. We may store a verified email address, authentication provider, provider account identifier, sign-in timestamps, and secure session records so Email, Apple when enabled, or a temporary legacy recovery method can resolve to one canonical BayForge member. Provider access tokens and authentication secrets are not placed in public profiles. Your onboarding progress, workout progression, XP, Forge Credits, achievements, Nutrition Forge entitlement, and core preferences are stored with that member account so they can follow you across signed-in devices. Progress photos currently remain only in the browser on the device where you added them and are not uploaded to BayForge Fit servers. Clearing browser data, changing devices, or removing the site may erase those device-only photos.
How we use information
We use information to register Founding members, calculate workouts and nutrition estimates, remember progress, operate community and buddy features, award XP and Forge Credits, verify streaks and referrals, determine reward eligibility, process Armory redemptions and fulfillment, provide support, prevent abuse, confirm paid access, improve the beta, and communicate essential service information.
Forge Credit and reward records
We keep a permanent transaction ledger containing the member identifier, credit amount, earn or spend direction, reason, source, related quest, achievement, referral, or reward when applicable, timestamp, balance before and after, and any logged administrative adjustment. We also retain redemption status and fulfillment records to prevent double spending, resolve support issues, and maintain accurate reward history.
Health and nutrition information
Fitness numbers, body measurements, goals, and allergy exclusions may be sensitive. We use them only to provide the features you request, operate the service, maintain safety and security, and meet legal obligations. Do not post private health information in The Foundry.
Community visibility
The Foundry may display the member name you provide, member title, rank, badges, streak, cycle count, and content you choose to post. It does not intentionally display your email, age, height, weight, allergies, exact address, or private progress photos.
Payments
Payments for Nutrition Forge are processed by Stripe. Stripe receives the payment details entered during checkout. BayForge Fit does not receive or store your full card number. We may receive your email, payment status, amount, checkout identifier, and timestamps to confirm access, prevent fraud, and handle support.
Service providers and disclosure
We use service providers for hosting, database storage, email, security, and payment processing. They may process information only as needed to provide those services or comply with law. We may also disclose information to protect members, investigate abuse, enforce our terms, respond to lawful requests, or complete a business transfer. We do not sell personal information for money.
Cookies, local storage, and notifications
The service uses secure session cookies, browser storage, and necessary security technologies to keep your account and preferences working. Authentication providers may set their own necessary security cookies. If you enable notifications, your browser or device controls permission and delivery. You can turn notifications off in the app or device settings.
Optional workout push reminders
When you enable phone alerts, we store this device’s push subscription, your selected workout time, days, and time zone. We send reminders 60, 30, and 10 minutes before, and follow-ups 5 and 20 minutes after if you have not started or completed the workout. You can pause the schedule or turn off alerts for each device in Settings.
Optional workout text reminders
If you expressly opt in, we use your mobile number, time zone, selected days, and reminder time to send recurring workout reminders. These reminders are optional, are not marketing consent, and are not required for membership. Message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP to end texts or HELP for help. We do not sell your SMS consent or mobile number, and service providers may process them only to deliver and operate the reminder service.
Retention and security
We keep server-side records only as long as reasonably needed for the purposes described, dispute resolution, security, accounting, and legal obligations. We use reasonable safeguards, but no online service can promise absolute security.
Your choices and privacy requests
You may ask to access, correct, or delete personal information associated with your account, subject to verification and legal exceptions. You may also ask about how information is used or shared. California residents may have additional rights under applicable law, including rights to know, correct, delete, and limit certain uses of sensitive information. We will not discriminate against you for making a valid privacy request.
Adults only and changes
BayForge Fit is intended for adults 18 and older and is not directed to children. We may update this policy as the service changes. Material changes will be posted with a new effective date.
