How Elsara uses health data
Last updated 22 September 2026 · Effective 22 September 2026
This page exists because Apple's HealthKit review guidelines and Google's Health Connect data policy both require a clear, specific, publicly reachable statement of how an app handles health data. It supplements our Privacy Policy.
What we read
Only with your explicit, per-source permission:
| Data type | Source | What it changes in Elsara |
|---|---|---|
| Sleep duration and quality | Apple Health · Health Connect · Oura · Whoop | Readiness for the day; session intensity |
| Resting heart rate | Apple Health · Health Connect · Oura · Whoop | Recovery trend and readiness |
| Heart rate variability | Apple Health · Health Connect · Oura · Whoop | Readiness and load tolerance |
| Steps and active energy | Apple Health · Health Connect · Whoop | Daily activity baseline |
| Workouts | Apple Health · Health Connect · Whoop | Confirms sessions completed |
| Body mass | Apple Health · Health Connect · manual | Progress tracking and targets |
What we write back
Elsara does not currently write data into Apple Health, Health Connect, Oura or Whoop. If that changes we will ask for separate permission first and update this page before shipping it.

Not a medical device
Elsara is a fitness and coaching product. It is not a medical device, it does not diagnose, treat or prevent any condition, and nothing in it is medical advice. Talk to a qualified clinician before starting a programme, and stop and seek help if something hurts.
