Privacy Policy
SwimLab iOS app and swimlab.io · Last updated: November 3, 2026
SwimLab is built so that your swims never leave your phone.
What we collect in the iOS app
Training plans on swimlab.io
The plan builder on swimlab.io is separate from the app and does use an account. We keep your email address (to sign you in with a code), your name if you have one on your SwimLab account, and the plans you save. We never sell this data or use it for advertising.
To build a plan, the text, files or photos you give us are sent to Anthropic, whose Claude AI turns them into a plan. Please don't include anything you wouldn't want processed that way. We don't keep what you paste or upload after the plan is built; your browser holds it until you save.
Plans are stored with Supabase, the site runs on Vercel, and sign-in emails are sent through Resend. These providers process data only to run the service.
Plan links are open.Anyone with your plan link can see the plans in it, including their names and any swimmer or group names you put in them. Only share a link with people you're happy to show those plans to.
To delete your account and plans, email us at the address below.
Looking up official results
The app talks to our results service when youchoose to look up official meet results (Race → Import a race → Look up official results). The name you type is sent to SwimLab's results service (results.swimlab.io) to find matching swimmers in a public database of published meet results, and the results you pick are downloaded to your phone. Nothing about you is uploaded — no videos, times, marks, or device identifiers — and the service keeps no account or profile of you. If you ask SwimLab to remember which swimmer you are, that choice is stored only on your device.
We do not store your searches or associate them with you. Our hosting provider retains standard request logs, which include the search term and your IP address, for a short period for security and reliability, after which they are deleted. For this reason the App Store privacy label lists "Search History" as data that is not linked to you.

What stays on your device
- Video recordings you capture with SwimLab are stored only in the app's private storage on your iPhone.
- Race data (times, marks, tags, notes, and any official results you import) is stored in a local database on your iPhone.
- Standard iOS device backups (iCloud or computer) may include this data under your own Apple account, governed by Apple's privacy policy.
Permissions SwimLab asks for
- Camera — to record your swims. Video is saved only on your device.
- Microphone — to record audio with your clips and the start signal.
- Photo Library (add only) — only when you tap "Save to Photos", to save a video you explicitly exported. SwimLab cannot read your photo library.
