Privacy Policy

Last updated: November 11, 2026

Iron Garage (“the app”) is published by Chandler Mitchell (“we”). This policy explains what happens to your information when you use the app.

The short version

The app works fully without an account, and then your information stays on your device. If you choose to create an account and turn on syncing, a copy of your training data is stored on our server so you can back it up and use it on more than one device. We do not sell your information, we do not show ads, and we do not track you across other apps or websites.

Information the app stores on your device

• Workouts, sets, reps, weights and notes you log
• Programs, cardio sessions and gym profile settings (bar, plates, machines, equipment)
• Optional body measurements such as body weight and body fat, if you enter them
• Optional progress photos or exercise photos, if you add them

This information is saved in the app’s private storage on your phone. If you never create an account it is not uploaded anywhere, and deleting the app deletes it.

Optional account and syncing

If you create an account (More > Account in the app), we store on our server, which is located in the United States:

• Your email address, and your password in scrambled (hashed) form – we cannot read your password
• Sign-in tokens for your devices
• The training data you sync: workouts, sets, programs, cardio sessions, body weight and body fat entries, and the notes attached to those entries

Not uploaded: your progress photo files and your app settings stay on your phone. Your data is stored in a separate database for your account and is used only to sync your devices and restore your data. It is sent over an encrypted (HTTPS) connection.

Deleting your account: in the app, go to More > Account > Delete account and enter your password. This deletes your account and the training data stored for it on our server. Data on your phone is not deleted. Server backups are rotated on a regular schedule, so a deleted account can remain in an older backup copy for a short time before it is overwritten. You can also email us to ask for deletion.

You can sign out at any time; your data stays on your phone.

Friends and leaderboard (optional)

If you turn on the friends feature, we store the player name you choose, your friend code, a hashed login token, your friend connections and a weekly points number so friends can see your standing. Your workouts, weights and photos are not shared through this feature.

What we do not do

• No advertising and no ad tracking
• No selling or sharing of personal data
• No requirement to create an account to use the app

Third parties

Our server is run by a US hosting provider that stores the data described above on our behalf. If you download the app through Apple’s App Store or TestFlight, Apple may collect information under its own privacy policy, such as download and crash data. We do not control that. If you contact us, we receive your email address and message and use them only to reply.

Future features

We may later add paid subscriptions or other optional features. If we do, this policy will be updated before those features are released, and the app will tell you what information they use.

Health and safety

Not medical advice

Iron Garage gives general fitness information and tools for logging workouts. It is not medical advice and does not replace a doctor, physical therapist or other qualified professional.

Check with your doctor first

Talk to your doctor before you start or change an exercise program, especially if you are pregnant, injured, recovering from surgery, or have a heart, blood pressure, joint or other health condition.

Suggestions are estimates

Suggested weights, reps, rest times, warm-ups, the readiness card and the body map come from simple formulas. They do not know your health or how you feel today. You decide what is safe for you. Lower the weight or stop if something feels wrong.

Stop and get help if needed

Stop right away and seek medical help if you feel pain, dizziness, chest pain, shortness of breath or faintness.

Train safely

Use a spotter and safety equipment where it makes sense, and check that your gear is in good condition. You exercise at your own risk.

Children

The app is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from them. If you believe a child has created an account, contact us and we will delete it.

Your choices

You control your data. You can edit or delete any entry in the app, sign out, delete your account from inside the app, or delete the app to remove what it stores on your phone.

Changes to this policy

We will post any changes on this page and update the date above.
