Privacy Policy

Last updated: 24 March 2026 · Effective from first TestFlight build

Dayla is built on trust. Your health data is yours — we only use it to coach you better, never to advertise to you or sell to third parties. This policy explains exactly what we collect, why, and what rights you have.

1. Who We Are

Dayla Run is developed and operated by Dolomitica Ltd, a company registered in England and Wales (company number available on request). Our registered office is in the United Kingdom.

2. What Data We Collect

We collect only what's needed to deliver coaching. Here's a clear breakdown:

Category What specifically Why

3. Apple HealthKit Data — Special Rules

HealthKit data is treated with the strictest care. In line with Apple's requirements and our own principles:

4. How We Use Your Data

We do not use your data for advertising, profiling for third-party sale, or any purpose outside coaching you as a runner.

5. Third-Party Processors

To deliver the coaching experience, we work with carefully selected processors. All are bound by data processing agreements:

Processor Purpose Data shared
Anthropic (USA) AI coaching intelligence — generates Dayla's spoken guidance Anonymised biometric context (HR, pace, zone) + coaching state. No personally identifiable information.
OpenAI (USA) Text-to-speech — converts coaching text to Dayla's voice Coaching text only. No biometric data.
Railway (USA) Backend infrastructure — processes coaching requests and stores run history Run data, account data. Hosted on Railway's secure cloud infrastructure.
Loops.so (USA) Transactional email — post-run summaries, account emails Name, email address, run summary content.
Apple HealthKit data source, App Store distribution, in-app purchases Governed by Apple's own privacy policy and HealthKit rules.

We are based in the UK and your data may be transferred to the USA via these processors. Where required, we ensure appropriate safeguards (Standard Contractual Clauses) are in place.
