Privacy Policy — Edge / OpenStrap

Last updated: July 18, 2026

Edge ("the App") is an independent, open-source project. It is not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by WHOOP, Inc.

We do not collect your data

This section describes every build we ourselves distribute — the signed Android APK and iOS IPA published on GitHub Releases, and any future App Store/Play Store submission. Your biometric/health data from your paired WHOOP 4.0 band — heart rate, heart rate variability (RR intervals), motion (accelerometer), raw skin-temperature/blood-oxygen sensor channels, and (if you record workouts) GPS location during those workouts — is processed and stored entirely on your device in every one of those builds. We do not upload it, we do not operate a backend that receives it, and we never see it — unless you separately choose to enable AI Coach or Health app integration, described below, which send specific data to services you configure.

Edge is open source. The underlying code contains an off-by-default, compile-time flag (kHealthDataContributionEnabled) that an independent developer could enable in their own, separately-built and separately-distributed copy of the app, pointed at a backend of their own choosing. No build we publish enables it — our CI explicitly forces it off for every release rather than relying on the flag's default. A self-built copy compiled with that flag on is that builder's own software and their own responsibility; it is not covered by this policy.

Anonymous diagnostics (on by default)

In every build we distribute, the only thing the App sends off your device automatically — aside from the optional, user-initiated integrations described next — is basic crash/error and performance monitoring, via Firebase (Google) — Crashlytics, Performance Monitoring, and Analytics. This is on by default; you can turn it off at any time in Settings ("Send anonymous diagnostics"), which stops any further collection immediately. It never includes your health data — only crash reports, basic device info (OS/model/app version), and coarse performance timing. This data is handled under Firebase's own privacy and security practices, not a system we built or operate ourselves — see Google's Firebase privacy & security documentation: firebase.google.com/support/privacy.

Optional, user-initiated integrations

If you choose to enable them, the App can also send data to services you configure:

• AI Coach — if you enable this feature and supply your own API key, summaries of your data are sent to the AI provider you configure (by default, OpenAI) to generate coaching responses. Off by default and requires your own API key.
• Health app integration — if you enable it, the App can write derived daily metrics to Apple Health or Google Health Connect, which are controlled by your device's own OS-level health app, not by us.

What we don't do

We do not sell your data. We do not send your health data to WHOOP, Inc. or any advertising network. We do not require a WHOOP account or credentials to use the App. We do not operate a backend that stores your health data.

Your controls

Turn off "Send anonymous diagnostics" at any time in Settings — this stops any further collection immediately. You can also disable AI Coach or Health app integration at any time in Settings if you'd previously turned them on.

Uninstalling the App deletes all of your locally stored data immediately. That's the whole picture unless you had separately enabled one of the optional integrations above — in that case, uninstalling stops the App from sending anything further, but does not reach back and delete data already sent:

• Anonymous diagnostics already sent to Firebase are retained and governed by Firebase's own practices (linked above), not by us.
• Data already sent to your configured AI Coach provider (e.g. OpenAI) is retained and governed by that provider's own policies, not by us.
• Metrics already written to Apple Health or Google Health Connect are retained and governed by that platform's own data controls, not by us — manage or delete them from that app directly.

Children

This App is not directed to children under 13 (or the relevant age of digital consent in your jurisdiction) and we do not knowingly collect data from them.

Changes

We may update this policy; material changes will be reflected here with an updated date.
