Consumer Health Data Privacy
Last updated: April 7, 2026
Given Katanx's focus on performance and visual arts—spanning martial arts, movement culture, and somatic disciplines—we recognize that the data you share may implicitly or explicitly reveal information regarding your biological capabilities, training regimens, and physiological state.
This Consumer Health Data Privacy Policy supplements our standard Privacy Policy and details the strict engineering controls we apply to somatic and health-related data.
1. Scope of Somatic Data
For the purposes of this platform, "Consumer Health Data" includes:
- Data imported via active integrations with third-party operating systems (e.g., Apple HealthKit, Google Fit).
- Self-reported biometric metrics recorded within Katanx training logs or Studio sessions.
- Algorithmic inferences regarding physical performance capacity derived from uploaded media.
2. Strict Purpose Limitation
Somatic and health data is processed strictly for the following operational vectors:
- To provide core platform utility, such as training logs, performance analytics, and progress visualization.
- To power highly-tailored intelligence scoring within The Wire (only if explicitly enabled by the user).
Katanx will never sell, lease, or monetize your somatic biometric data to third-party data brokers, insurance entities, or advertising networks.
3. Consent and Telemetry Controls
The ingestion of health data via external APIs requires explicit, opt-in cryptographic consent at the OS level. You maintain the ability to sever this deterministic link at any time from within your Katanx Profile Settings or your device's native security center.
4. Isolation and Deletion protocols
Health data is stored in isolated, encrypted database schemas. Upon requesting account deletion, all associated health and somatic telemetry is purged from our primary and edge databases within 72 hours, with cold-storage backups fully expunged within standard 30-day retention cycles.
5. Regional Compliance
This policy is designed to comply with advanced biometric privacy frameworks globally, including the EU GDPR (Article 9 classifications regarding health data) and emerging state-level somatic privacy regulations in the United States.
