ARCOZA builds digital products designed to support training, recovery, wellbeing and personal performance.
This Privacy Policy explains how information is handled when you use ARCOZA products and services, including the READY application.
We believe health and fitness information should remain private, be used only for the purpose you expect, and never become an advertising product.
1. Who We Are
ARCOZA is the wellness and performance label behind READY and operates as part of Hipster Haus.

The exact information available to READY depends on the permissions you grant and the services you choose to connect.
3. Apple Health and HealthKit
READY can access information from Apple Health through Apple HealthKit when you explicitly grant permission.
READY only requests access to HealthKit data required to provide features within the app.
HealthKit information may be used to:

READY does not sell HealthKit information.

READY does not provide HealthKit information to data brokers.
You remain in control of HealthKit permissions and can change or remove READY’s access at any time through Apple Health or iOS Settings.
4. Connected Fitness Services
READY may allow you to connect supported third-party fitness services such as Strava.
When you connect a service, READY only accesses information permitted by the authorisation you provide.
Information received from a connected service may include:
- Workout activity
- Distance
- Duration
- Route information
- Heart-rate information
- Pace or speed
- Cadence
- Other activity metrics made available by that provider
Your use of third-party services also remains subject to their own privacy policies and account settings.
You can disconnect supported integrations at any time.
5. Training Plans and Goals
You may provide READY with information such as:
- Personal training goals
- Event goals
- Training schedules
- Imported training plans
- Planned workouts
READY processes this information so that it can organise your training schedule and provide relevant comparisons between planned and completed activity.
6. Personalised Analysis and AI Features
READY includes features designed to provide personalised explanations, training feedback and coaching-style insights based on information available within the app.
Depending on the feature you use, relevant information may be processed by carefully selected technology service providers in order to generate the requested analysis.
Only information necessary to perform the requested function should be transmitted.
We do not permit health, fitness or training information processed through these features to be used by ARCOZA for advertising purposes.
AI-generated information is intended to support your understanding of your training and recovery.
It should not be treated as medical advice, diagnosis or treatment.
7. Weather and Environmental Information
READY may combine workout information with environmental information such as:
- Temperature
- Rain
- Wind speed
- Wind direction
- Headwind conditions
- Tailwind conditions
- Crosswind conditions
This information may be used to provide additional context around workout performance.
8. How We Use Your Information
Information processed by READY may be used to:
- Provide app functionality
- Display workouts and health metrics
- Maintain your athlete profile
- Manage training plans
- Generate recovery and readiness insights
- Compare current and historical performance
- Generate personalised coaching information
- Improve app reliability and functionality
- Protect the security of the service
- Respond to support or privacy requests
We do not use your health information to build advertising profiles.
9. We Do Not Sell Your Personal Information
ARCOZA does not sell your personal information.
We do not sell health data, workout data or HealthKit information.
We do not provide your health information to advertisers or data brokers.
10. Service Providers
ARCOZA may use trusted technology providers to operate READY, including services required for:
- Secure account authentication
- Database hosting
- Application infrastructure
- AI-powered functionality
- Weather information
- Error monitoring
- Technical operation
These providers may process limited information where necessary to provide their service.
We aim to minimise the amount of personal information shared with service providers and use it only where necessary for legitimate application functionality.
11. Data Separation
READY is designed so that each athlete’s account and associated information is kept separate from other users.
Access controls are used to prevent one user from accessing another user’s personal training or health information.
12. Data Security
We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect information processed through READY.
These measures may include:
- Authentication controls
- Secure network connections
- Restricted database access
- User-level access controls
- Separation of user records
No online service can guarantee absolute security, but protecting health and fitness information is treated as a core requirement of READY.
13. Data Retention
Personal information is retained only for as long as reasonably necessary to provide READY, maintain your account, meet legal requirements or resolve legitimate operational issues.
Where possible, information associated with an account will be removed when an account deletion request is completed, except where limited retention is legally required.
14. Your Rights
Depending on where you live, you may have legal rights relating to your personal information.
For users in the United Kingdom, these may include the right to:
- Request access to your personal information
- Request correction of inaccurate information
- Request deletion of your information
- Request restriction of certain processing
- Object to certain processing
- Request a copy of information you have provided
- Withdraw consent where processing relies on consent
To make a privacy request, contact:
We may need to verify your identity before completing certain requests.
15. Removing Health Permissions
Apple Health permissions can be managed directly on your Apple device.
Removing READY’s HealthKit access prevents READY from receiving new information from the categories you disable.
Removing an external integration can similarly prevent READY from receiving new information from that service.
16. Account and Data Deletion
You may request deletion of your READY account and associated personal information by contacting:
Where an in-app deletion mechanism is available, you may also use that feature.
Deletion requests will be processed subject to any information we are legally required to retain.
17. Children’s Privacy
READY is not intended to knowingly collect health information from children without the appropriate legal basis, consent or parental authority where required.
18. Medical Disclaimer
READY is a fitness, training and wellbeing product.
It is not a medical device and does not provide medical diagnosis, treatment or emergency medical services.
Readiness scores, recovery information and AI-generated analysis are informational and should not replace advice from an appropriately qualified healthcare professional.
19. International Processing
Some technology providers used to operate READY may process information outside the United Kingdom.
Where this occurs, appropriate safeguards are used where required by applicable data-protection law.
20. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy as READY and other ARCOZA products evolve.
The current version will always display the date of the most recent update at the top of this page.
Material changes will be communicated where appropriate.
