Who we are

Realburn: True Calorie Balance (“Realburn”) and the website realburn.app are made by HUMANIST SRL, Str. Arieșului 4, 550409 Sibiu, Romania, CUI 48176711, Trade Register no. J32/947/2023 (“we”, “us”). We are the controller of the personal data described here. This policy covers the Realburn app for iPhone and the waitlist on realburn.app.

Apple Health

Realburn works out your real daily calorie burn and balance from the data in Apple Health. When you first open it, iOS asks for your permission for each type of data, and you can allow or refuse each one.

Read
Weight, body fat percentage, height, active energy, resting energy, steps, workouts, dietary energy (the calories you or your food apps log), and your date of birth and sex. Realburn uses them only to calculate your burn, your balance and your weight trend.
Written
Only the food you log with Quick Log, saved to Health as Dietary Energy. Other apps you have allowed to read Dietary Energy can then see it, as with any Health data. When you edit or delete a Quick Log entry in Realburn, the matching entry in Health is updated or removed.

Realburn reads and writes nothing else. All processing happens on your iPhone. Health data is exchanged only between Realburn and the Health app on your device: it never leaves your device, is never sent to HUMANIST or to anyone else, is never used for advertising or marketing, and is never sold.

You can change or revoke Realburn’s access at any time in the iOS Settings app, under Privacy & Security › Health › Realburn. Your data in Apple Health stays where it is.

What Realburn stores on your iPhone

To work quickly and show you the same numbers each time, Realburn keeps a few things in its own private storage on your iPhone: your settings and goal, your saved meals for Quick Log, and the results it has calculated, such as your calibration factor. None of this is sent to us. Deleting the app deletes it.

Like all app data, it is included in your device backups if you back up your iPhone with iCloud Backup or to a computer. Those backups are managed by you and Apple; we have no access to them.

What we don’t do

  • Realburn has no account and no sign-in.
  • Realburn has no servers. It does not send your data to HUMANIST or to anyone else.
  • Realburn contains no analytics, crash-reporting or advertising SDKs, shows no ads, and does not track you across apps or websites.
  • We do not sell, share or rent personal data from the app, because we do not collect any.

The waitlist on realburn.app

Before Realburn is on the App Store, you can join a waitlist on realburn.app.

  • What we keep: only your email address. The form asks for nothing else.
  • Why: to send you one email when Realburn launches. We use it for nothing else and never share it with anyone for their own use. The legal basis is your consent (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR), which you give by joining.
  • Where it is stored: with Resend, the email service that stores the list and sends the launch email for us. Resend acts as our processor, only on our instructions, and keeps the list in its EU region, in Ireland.
  • Unsubscribing: every email has an unsubscribe link. You can also ask us at office@humanist.ro to remove your address, and we will delete it.
  • How long: until you unsubscribe or ask us to remove it, and no longer than needed for the launch email.

realburn.app is hosted by Vercel. To deliver the pages, Vercel processes technical data from your browser, such as your IP address, in its server logs. realburn.app sets no cookies and uses no analytics.

Purchases

Any purchase in Realburn is made through Apple’s In-App Purchase. Apple handles the payment; we never see your payment details, your name or your Apple ID. Realburn only asks the App Store on your iPhone whether a purchase is active.

Emailing us

If you write to us at office@humanist.ro, we receive your email address and your message. We use them only to answer you, keep them only as long as needed for that, and delete them sooner if you ask.

Apple

Realburn is distributed through the App Store. Downloads, payments and ratings are handled by Apple under Apple’s Privacy Policy (opens in a new tab). If you have chosen in iOS Settings to share analytics with app developers, Apple may give us anonymous crash reports and usage statistics. We cannot identify you from them, and you can turn this off in Settings › Privacy & Security › Analytics & Improvements.

Your rights

Because the app’s data is only on your iPhone and in Apple Health, we cannot see, correct, export or delete it for you; you control it in Realburn, in the Health app and in iOS Settings. For your waitlist email and any email you sent us, you can ask us to see, correct or delete it, and withdraw your consent at any time. You have all your rights under the EU General Data Protection Regulation. If you have a question or a concern, write to us. You can also complain to the Romanian data protection authority, ANSPDCP (opens in a new tab).

Changes to this policy

When Realburn changes in a way that affects your data, we will update this page and its effective date before the change ships. The current version is always at humanist.ro/realburn/privacy.
