Privacy Policy for Distance Goal

Your goals and distance entries stay on your device. Here's exactly what that means.

Last updated: 4 July 2026

Who we are

Distance Goal is published by Bluetorch Consulting Ltd, a company registered in England and Wales (Companies House number 14663890). This privacy policy explains how the Distance Goal app for Android handles your information.

If you have any questions about this policy, you can contact us at support@bluetorch.co.uk.

What the app does

Distance Goal is a simple distance goal tracker. You create a goal with a target distance and deadline, then manually add distance entries for activities such as walking, cycling or running. The app shows your progress towards the goal.

Distance Goal does not require you to create an account. The app is designed for manual distance goal tracking.

What information the app stores

The app may store the following information locally on your device:

  • Goal name
  • Target distance
  • Start and end dates
  • Manually entered distance entries
  • Activity type, such as walking, cycling, running, or other
  • Optional notes entered by you

This information is stored locally on your device. In V1, Bluetorch Consulting Ltd does not receive, collect, access, sell, or share your goals or distance entries.

Information we do not collect

In V1, Distance Goal does not:

  • Require an account or collect account details
  • Collect your name, email address or other personal details
  • Collect GPS or location data
  • Track your routes or movements
  • Use analytics or advertising services
  • Send push notifications
  • Include any third-party tracking SDKs
  • Send your data to any server — the app has no backend

Local storage on your device

Everything you enter into Distance Goal is stored locally on your device. It is not uploaded, synchronised or backed up to any service operated by Bluetorch Consulting Ltd.

Because your data lives only on your device, deleting the app or clearing its app data may permanently delete your goals and distance entries. Your device or Google account settings may include general device backup features (such as Android backups) that are controlled by you and Google, not by Bluetorch Consulting Ltd.

Health, fitness, and location data

Distance Goal does not collect GPS location data, does not track your route, does not connect to health platforms, and does not access fitness or health records from other apps or devices.

In V1 there is no integration with Google Fit, Health Connect, Apple Health, Fitbit, Strava, or similar platforms. The only fitness-related information in the app is the distance figures and activity types you type in yourself.

Third-party services

V1 of Distance Goal does not use third-party analytics, advertising, crash reporting or tracking services, and does not share any information with third parties.

The app is distributed through Google Play. Google may collect information relating to your download and installation of the app under its own privacy policy, which is separate from this one.

Children's privacy

Distance Goal is a general-purpose utility and is not directed at children. The app does not collect personal information from anyone, including children. All data entered into the app remains on the device it was entered on.

Data deletion

Because your data is stored only on your device, you are in full control of deleting it. You can:

  • Delete individual goals or distance entries within the app
  • Clear the app's data from your device settings (Settings → Apps → Distance Goal → Storage → Clear data)
  • Uninstall the app, which removes its locally stored data

Bluetorch Consulting Ltd holds no copy of your data, so there is nothing further for us to delete on our side.

Changes to this policy

If future versions of Distance Goal add features such as optional cloud sync or health platform integration, this privacy policy will be updated before those features are released, and the "Last updated" date above will be revised. We encourage you to review this page from time to time.
