Myra Coach AG
Privacy Policy
Applies to the Myra app and www.myra.coach. Last updated 17 October 2026.
01Information we collect
We collect only the information necessary to provide you with personalised health coaching. This falls into three categories:
| Category | Examples | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Account information | Name, email address, wellness goals, date of birth | You provide directly |
| Health & activity data | Steps, sleep stages, heart rate, HRV, workouts, mindfulness sessions, mood entries | Apple HealthKit (with your permission) |
| App usage data | Chat and voice interactions with Myra, programs created, features used | Automatically, when you use the app |
| Device information | iOS version, device model, push notification token | Automatically collected |
We do not collect precise GPS location, payment information, or contacts.
02How we use your data
Your data is used exclusively to power and improve your coaching experience:
- Generating personalised fitness and wellness programs tailored to your goals and metrics
- Providing proactive insights and push notifications about your health trends (e.g. low HRV recovery alerts)
- Enabling AI chat and voice coaching through Myra — your health context informs every conversation
- Calculating your daily Wellness Score across fitness, sleep, nutrition, mindfulness, and mood pillars
- Improving our AI models and coaching quality — only using de-identified, aggregated data
- Sending service-related communications (account updates, critical app notices)
We never use your health data to target advertisements, and we do not build advertising profiles.
03Health & HealthKit data
HealthKit data accessed by Myra may include: steps, active energy, resting heart rate, heart rate variability, sleep analysis, workout data, mindfulness minutes, and blood oxygen. We access Apple Watch sensor data where available, as it provides the most accurate source.
HealthKit data is:
- Stored as daily summaries in our secure cloud backend — we do not store raw per-second sensor readings
- Used only to personalise your coaching and generate insights within Myra
- Never sold, rented, or shared with insurance companies, employers, or data brokers
- Never used for advertising or marketing purposes, consistent with Apple's HealthKit guidelines
05Data retention
We retain your data for as long as your account is active. Specific retention periods:
- Health summary data and coaching history: retained for the life of your account
- Voice and chat session content: retained for 90 days to support conversation continuity
- Usage and analytics data: retained for 24 months in aggregated, de-identified form
- Account information: deleted within 30 days of account deletion
When you delete your account, we initiate deletion of all personal data within 30 days, except where retention is required by law.

11This website and cookies
This section covers www.myra.coach. Visiting the website does not require an account, and we do not use the website to collect health data.
Google Analytics, only with your consent. If you click "Accept" in the cookie banner, we use Google Analytics 4 (Google Ireland Ltd. / Google LLC) to understand how visitors find and use the site: pages viewed, clicks on buttons such as "Join the challenge", approximate location (country/city), device and browser type, and referring website. Google Analytics sets cookies (_ga, _ga_*) to recognise returning visitors; they expire after up to 2 years. Google Analytics 4 does not log or store IP addresses. We do not use Google Analytics for advertising: advertising storage and ad personalisation are always switched off.
If you click "Decline", or until you choose, no analytics script is loaded and no analytics cookies are set. We store your choice in your browser's local storage (myra-analytics-consent) so we don't ask again; this is strictly necessary and contains no personal data.
Legal basis and withdrawal. We process this data on the basis of your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR, Art. 31 revDSG). You can withdraw it at any time, as easily as you gave it, through the "Cookie settings" link at the bottom of every page; we then remove the analytics cookies.
Transfers. Google may process this data in the United States. Google LLC is certified under the EU-US and Swiss-US Data Privacy Frameworks, and Google's data processing terms include Standard Contractual Clauses.
Hosting. The website is hosted on Firebase Hosting (Google Cloud). To deliver pages securely, the hosting provider processes technical data such as your IP address and browser information in server logs. This is necessary to provide the website (legitimate interest, Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) and does not depend on your consent.
Email. If you write to us, for example to request a beta invite, we use your email address and message only to reply and to send the invite, and delete them when they are no longer needed for that purpose.
