Privacy Policy

Who we are

3D Pacer is an iPhone app published by Ken Mullinix (“we,” “us”). This policy covers the 3D Pacer app and the website at 3dpacer.com.

What the app uses, and where it stays

3D Pacer needs some information to work. All of it is processed and stored on your iPhone. None of it is sent to us or to any third party.

• Location. During a run, the app uses your iPhone’s location to measure your speed and distance so it can tell whether you’re ahead of or behind your target pace. Location is used only while a run is in progress. If you turn on saving to Apple Health, your route is saved with the workout in Health.
• Motion and fitness. The app uses your iPhone’s motion sensors to measure your step rate (cadence).
• Your runs. Saved runs, including time, distance, pace, and your planned-run settings, are stored on your iPhone.
• Your settings. Preferences such as target speed are stored on your iPhone.

We don’t operate any servers for the app, and the app doesn’t include analytics tools, advertising networks, or other third-party code that collects data. We don’t sell, rent, or share your information, because we never receive it.

If you back up your iPhone to iCloud or your computer, your app data may be included in that backup. Backups are handled by Apple or your computer and are not accessible to us.

Apple Health

With your permission, 3D Pacer saves your runs to the Apple Health app as workouts, including your route for outdoor runs so it appears on the map in the Fitness app. This happens on your iPhone through Apple’s HealthKit.

• 3D Pacer only saves workouts to Health. It never reads any of your Health data.
• We never receive, see, or store your Health data on any server.
• Health data is never used for advertising or marketing, and is never sold or shared with third parties.
• You can turn Health access on or off at any time in the Health app: tap your profile picture, then Apps, then 3D Pacer.

Sharing runs and Ghost Mode

You can choose to share a run with friends. Sharing uses the standard iOS share options, such as Messages, Mail, or AirDrop, and goes directly from you to the people you choose. It doesn’t pass through us.

A shared run includes your name as you entered it in the app and the run’s date, time, distance, and pace. It never includes your route or location. When a friend shares a run with you for Ghost Mode, it’s stored on your iPhone just like your own runs.

Apple services

• Purchases. 3D Pacer Pro is bought through the App Store. Apple handles payment, and we never receive your payment details. Apple shares basic sales reports with developers that don’t identify you personally.
• Siri. If you use Siri to start, pause, or stop runs, your voice request is handled by Apple under Apple’s privacy policy.
• Crash reports. If you’ve chosen to share analytics with app developers in your iPhone settings, Apple may send us anonymous crash reports and usage statistics. These don’t identify you, and you can turn them off in Settings > Privacy & Security > Analytics & Improvements.

This website

If you send us a message using the contact form on 3dpacer.com, we receive your name, email address, and message by email. We use them only to reply to you and keep them only as long as needed to help. We never add you to a mailing list without asking.

The site doesn’t use analytics or advertising. Like most websites, our hosting provider may keep standard server logs, such as IP addresses and pages visited, for security and maintenance. The site loads its font from Google Fonts, which means your browser connects to Google’s servers to download it.

To block spam, the contact form uses Google reCAPTCHA. It loads only when you start using the form, and it may set cookies and send Google information about your browser and how you interact with the page. Google’s Privacy Policy and Terms of Service apply.

Your choices

• Turn location, motion, or Health access on or off at any time in your iPhone’s Settings or the Health app.
• Delete a saved run in the app, or delete all app data by deleting 3D Pacer from your iPhone.
• Workouts already saved to Apple Health stay there until you delete them in the Health app.
• To have us delete a message you sent through our website, just ask using the contact form.

Children

3D Pacer doesn’t knowingly collect personal information from anyone, including children under 13. Because the app keeps everything on the device, we don’t receive information from any user.

Changes to this policy

If we change how 3D Pacer handles information, we’ll update this page and the effective date at the top. If a change means data would leave your iPhone, we’ll explain it in the app before it happens.
