Beep TestPrivacy Policy
Last updated: 9 November 2026
Beep Test: 20m Shuttle Run (on your home screen: Beep Test) is an app from Itworked Systems, a company registered in Türkiye. This page explains what the app does with information.
Itworked Systems is responsible for the app under Turkish data protection law (KVKK, Law No. 6698) and, for users in the EU and the UK, the GDPR.
- Your results, runner names, training plan progress and settings stay on your phone. The beep test works without an internet connection.
- The app sends anonymous install and app-open statistics (a random ID for each install and basic device details) to Adapty, the service we use for analytics and for the optional Pro purchase.
- If you buy Pro, Apple or Google take the payment, and Adapty receives the purchase record so Pro can be unlocked and restored.
- Runner names, results and your age are never sent to Adapty or anywhere else.
- No account, no sign-in, no ads, no tracking, no advertising ID. The app never uses your microphone.
- We never sell your information.
What leaves your phone, and why
| What | Why | Who receives it |
|---|---|---|
| If you buy Beep Test Pro: what you bought and when, and the store's receipt | To unlock Pro, restore it on a new phone, and count sales | Adapty, which checks purchases for us, and Apple or Google, which take the payment. We never see your card details |
| A random ID made for each install, the app's device ID for our apps (on iPhone, the identifier for vendor), basic device details (such as phone model, system version, language, time zone, store country and app version), when the app is opened and when the Pro screen is shown | To count installs and how often the app is used, so we can see whether it is useful and improve it (analytics), and to show the right Pro offer | Adapty (Adapty Tech Inc.), which processes it for us |
That is all. The app turns off Adapty's IP address lookup and its advertising ID collection (the IDFA on iPhone and the advertising ID on Android), does not ask to track you, and never sends Adapty your runner names, results, age or settings. The data is not linked to your name or any account (there is none). Your connection's IP address is necessarily seen by Adapty's servers to deliver the request, but the app tells Adapty not to store or use it. Read how Adapty handles this data at adapty.io/end-users-privacy.
The CSV export in Beep Test Pro happens only when you tap Export and choose where to share the file. We never receive it.
Why we may use this data
For purchases: to deliver what you bought. For statistics: our legitimate interest in understanding how many people use the app and keeping it working well. The statistics are anonymous and minimal, and you can stop them at any time by deleting the app.
How long it is kept
- On your phone: results, runner names, training plan progress and settings stay until you delete them or the app.
- Purchase records are kept by Adapty for us so Pro can be checked and restored, and by Apple or Google under their own rules.
- Usage statistics are kept by Adapty for us for as long as we use its service for this app, and deleted on request where we can identify them.
Where the data is processed
Adapty is based outside Türkiye and may process data in other countries, including the United States. These transfers follow the rules for sending data abroad in Turkish data protection law and, for users in the EU and the UK, the GDPR.
What the app uses on your phone
- The speaker, to play the beeps, and the phone's own text-to-speech engine, to say the level announcements aloud. The speech is made on your phone and nothing is sent anywhere for it.
- Keeping the screen awake during a test, if that setting is on.
- A notification on Android that says "Beep test running" while a test runs, which Android needs to keep the sound playing with the screen off. On Android 13 and later the app asks once, on your first test, for permission to show it; the test plays either way, and the app sends no other notifications.
- Your results and settings are saved in the app's own storage on your phone: test results and history, runner names entered for group tests, voice, countdown, keep-screen-on and volume settings, the age you set for the VO2 max equation, the theme, the test you chose, your training plan progress, and whether Pro is active.
The app does not use your microphone, camera, location, contacts or photos, and it does not ask for those permissions.
Deleting your data
Everything the app keeps on your phone is deleted when you delete the app; you can also delete single results and runners in the app (for runner names, see Runners). To ask for the anonymous statistics or purchase records that Adapty keeps for us to be deleted, email info@itworkedsystems.com. Because there is no account, tell us roughly when you installed the app and on which kind of phone, and we will do what we can to find and delete the records. Purchase records that Apple or Google must keep by law stay with them.
App stores and links
Apple and Google run the stores you download the app from, and may collect information about downloads and crashes under their own privacy policies, for example if you choose to share crash reports with developers in your phone's settings. The Settings screen links to this website; if you open those links, your browser visits itworkedsystems.com like any other website, and our host Cloudflare processes the request to deliver the page. We run no analytics on these pages.
Your rights
Under Turkish data protection law (KVKK, article 11) and the GDPR you can ask whether we process data about you, and ask for access, correction or deletion. We hold almost nothing ourselves; we will help with anything Adapty keeps for us. If you email us, we use your message only to answer it and delete it when it is no longer needed. You can also complain to Türkiye's Personal Data Protection Authority (Kişisel Verileri Koruma Kurumu) or, if you live in the EU or the UK, to the data protection authority where you live.
Children
The app is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly process their data. Coaches and teachers can enter the names of the runners they test. Those names stay on the coach's phone only and are never sent anywhere. If you enter names, use only what you need (for example first names) and delete them in Runners when you no longer need them.
Changes
If the app ever starts using data in a new way, we will update this page and the date at the top before that version is released.
