Cookies, local storage, and analytics
GymScout uses cookies and browser storage to remember consent preferences, wishlist items, theme settings, and other basic UX state.
We may also use analytics and advertising tools, including Google services, to understand traffic, improve site quality, and support monetization.
Users can block or clear cookies in their browser settings, though some site features may become less reliable.
Affiliate links and third parties
GymScout links to third-party retailers such as Amazon, Noon, iHerb, MyProtein, GNC, and others. When users click outbound links, those retailers may collect their own analytics, cookies, and purchase information under their own privacy policies.
GymScout does not process payments or receive full checkout data from those retailers. For more detail, see our Affiliate Disclosure.
How long we keep data
We keep subscriber and alert records for as long as they are active or reasonably needed to provide the service, comply with legal obligations, or maintain suppression/unsubscribe lists.
Technical logs and analytics may be retained for security, operational, and reporting purposes on a limited basis.
