Privacy Policy
Last updated: July 11, 2026
Overview
PlatePal ("the App") is developed and published by Possisoft ("we," "us," or "our"). This Privacy Policy describes how we handle information in connection with your use of PlatePal on iPhone.
The short version: PlatePal is a local, offline calculator. It does not collect, transmit, or share your personal data, and everything you enter — weights, plates, gyms, and workouts — stays on your device. The one exception is optional, anonymous usage statistics, which help us understand which features get used. They contain nothing personal, and you can turn them off with a single tap in Settings. Details are in the Analytics section below.

Data We Collect
PlatePal does not collect any personal information, and does not require an account or sign-in to function. The only data that ever leaves your device is optional, anonymous usage statistics, described in the Analytics section below.
The following data is stored locally on your device only:
- Your plate inventory configuration (plate quantities and unlimited flags)
- Your barbell selection and unit system preference (lb or kg)
- Your premium entitlement status (managed by Apple's StoreKit)
- App settings such as your chosen app icon preference
This data is stored using Apple's standard UserDefaults system and never leaves your device except as part of standard iOS system backups (iCloud Backup or iTunes/Finder backup), which are governed by Apple's own privacy policy.
Data We Do Not Collect
PlatePal does not collect, transmit, or have access to any of the following:
- Your name, email address, or any identifying information
- Your precise location
- Health or fitness data — your weights, lifts, and workouts never leave your device
- Advertising identifiers (IDFA), and no cross-app or cross-site tracking of any kind
- Crash reports (unless you opt in via iOS system settings)
We do collect anonymous, non-personal usage statistics unless you opt out — see the Analytics section for exactly what that includes.
In-App Purchases
PlatePal offers an optional in-app purchase for premium features. All purchase transactions are processed entirely by Apple through the App Store using StoreKit. Possisoft never receives, processes, or stores your payment information. For purchase-related questions, please refer to Apple's billing support.
Third-Party Services
PlatePal does not integrate with any advertising networks or data brokers. It uses two third-party services: Apple's StoreKit for in-app purchases, subject to Apple's Privacy Policy; and TelemetryDeck for anonymous analytics, subject to TelemetryDeck's Privacy Policy. The analytics service is described in the Analytics section below.
Analytics
PlatePal collects anonymous usage statistics to understand which features are used and to improve the App. This is limited to product-interaction events — for example, that a plate calculation, a workout export, or an onboarding step happened — along with basic anonymous technical details such as app version, device model, iOS version, and country/region. It also includes an anonymous identifier that is not tied to your name, email, Apple ID, or any account.
We do not collect your weights, lifts, workouts, or any personal data; we do not use advertising identifiers (IDFA); and we do not track you across other apps or websites, or share data with data brokers.
These statistics are processed on our behalf by TelemetryDeck (TelemetryDeck GmbH, Germany), an analytics provider built for privacy and operating under the EU's GDPR. TelemetryDeck is designed so the data it receives is not personally identifiable and cannot be traced back to you. See TelemetryDeck's Privacy Policy for details.
Analytics are on by default and entirely optional. You can turn them off at any time in Settings → Privacy → Share Anonymous Usage Stats. With analytics off, the App sends nothing.
Separately, Apple may collect aggregated, anonymous App Store analytics (such as download counts and crash statistics) as described in Apple's Developer Program License Agreement. We have no access to any personally identifiable information through this mechanism.
iCloud and Device Sync
PlatePal does not currently use iCloud or any cloud sync service. All of your personal app data — inventory, preferences, and workouts — remains on-device. (The optional, anonymous analytics described above are not personal data and are not synced to your account.) If iCloud sync is added in a future version, this policy will be updated before the feature ships.
Children's Privacy
PlatePal is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided personal information to us, please contact us at hello@possisoft.com and we will promptly address the situation.
Data Retention and Deletion
Because PlatePal stores all data locally on your device, you can delete it at any time by deleting the App from your iPhone. This permanently removes all locally stored preferences and settings.
If you have questions about your data or wish to request deletion of any information associated with your App Store purchases, please contact us at hello@possisoft.com.
Security
PlatePal does not transmit personal data. The anonymous usage statistics it sends (when enabled) travel over an encrypted HTTPS connection. App preferences stored on your device are protected by iOS's built-in app sandboxing and your device's own security features (passcode, Face ID, Touch ID).
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Continued use of the App after changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
