Effective November 5, 2026
ARISE is a private coaching app run by Colby Mullins. It holds training, nutrition and body data that you enter, so that your coach can read it and write your program around it. That is the only reason it holds any of it.
This page is written in plain language on purpose. If something here is unclear, write to colbymullins24@gmail.com and ask.
What ARISE collects
Your account
Your email address, and a password you set. The password is handled by our sign-in provider and is never stored by ARISE in a form anyone can read — not by your coach either. You can also add a name, a photo, a phone number and your time zone, and none of those are required. If you subscribe to Follow My Split we also ask for your date of birth, only to check you are old enough and to decide which version of the app you get.
What you log
- Bodyweight, body measurements and step counts.
- Progress photos, if you take them.
- Meals — what you ate, the macros, and photographs of food if you send them.
- Workouts: the exercises, the weights, the reps, the cardio.
- Weekly check-ins and how you answered them.
- Your onboarding answers, including injuries and limitations you tell us about, and the equipment you have.
Messages
The messages between you and your coach, including photos, files and voice notes you attach. These are kept so the thread still exists tomorrow.
Apple Health, only if you set it up
ARISE can accept steps and bodyweight sent from your iPhone. This only happens if you create a token in the app and set up the export yourself. Nothing is read from your phone otherwise, and only steps, bodyweight and a calorie total are accepted — not your wider Health record. Deleting the token stops it.
Payments
Payments run through Stripe. Card numbers never reach ARISE — they go to Stripe directly. ARISE stores what you bought, what it cost, whether it was paid, and Stripe’s reference for the payment.
Your coaching agreement
If you sign a coaching agreement in the app, ARISE records the name you typed, the time you signed, your IP address and your browser. That is stored for the same reason any signature is: so the agreement can be shown to have been signed.
Notifications and technical records
- If you turn on notifications, ARISE stores the address your browser gives it for pushing to that device, plus the keys needed to encrypt the push and a description of the browser. Turning notifications off deletes it.
- A record of significant actions — who changed a program, who marked a payment paid — with a timestamp, so that changes can be traced.
- Our host keeps ordinary server logs of requests. Inside the app, ARISE does not run advertising or third-party analytics trackers, and there are no advertising cookies.
- The public coaching pages (/coaching and the application at /coaching/apply) use the Meta Pixel, which sets Meta cookies and tells Meta that someone viewed the page and whether they sent an application, so I can measure and improve my ads. It never sends your application answers, name, email or phone number. It does not run anywhere else in ARISE, so nothing you log as a client reaches Meta. You can limit this with your browser's cookie settings or in your Meta ad preferences.
Who can see it
Your coach can see everything you log. That is what coaching is — your weight, your photos, your meals, your lifts, your messages. ARISE is run by one coach working by hand, not a company with departments, so there is no larger staff reading your data.
Other clients cannot see any of it. Your progress photos and meal photos are stored privately and can only be opened through short-lived links the app generates for you and your coach.
Companies ARISE relies on
These are service providers, not buyers. They handle data on ARISE’s behalf and are not allowed to use it for their own purposes.
- Supabase — the database, file storage and sign-in. Everything you log lives here.
- Vercel — hosting. Runs the app and keeps request logs.
- Stripe — payments and card handling.
- Anthropic — reads food photos to estimate macros, and drafts message replies for your coach to edit before sending. See below.
What goes to Anthropic, and what doesn’t
When you photograph a meal, that photo and any note you wrote with it are sent to Anthropic’s API to be read for calories and macros. The result comes back as a first pass; your coach checks and corrects it. Your coach may also have a reply to one of your messages drafted, which sends the recent messages in that thread and a summary of your day.
Anthropic processes this to answer the request and does not use it to train their models. Your name, email and payment details are not sent. If you would rather nothing of yours went there, log meals by searching foods instead of photographing them, and tell your coach.
ARISE does not sell your data, and does not share it with anyone for advertising. The only other way it leaves is if the law requires it.
How long it’s kept
While you have an account, your history is kept — a year of weights and check-ins is the useful part of coaching, so nothing is quietly aged out.
When you delete your account, your logs, photos, measurements, messages and notifications are deleted. Payment records are kept as long as tax and accounting rules require, and Stripe keeps its own record of transactions under its own policy. A signed coaching agreement is kept, together with what was recorded at signing, because a contract stops being a contract if the record of it being agreed to is thrown away.
Your choices
- See it — everything ARISE holds about you is visible in the app.
- Fix it — you can edit or delete any individual log, photo or measurement yourself.
- Get a copy — email and ask, and you’ll be sent your data.
- Delete it — go to Profile and choose Delete account, or email and ask. See the terms for what happens to a subscription when you do.
- Turn off notifications — from Profile, on each device.
Depending on where you live you may have further rights over your data, including the right to object to how it is used. Email and ask; ARISE does not charge for any of this and will not make you a worse offer for asking.
Security
Data is encrypted in transit, photos are stored in private buckets reachable only through expiring links, health-sync tokens are hashed rather than stored as written, and each page checks who you are against the sign-in provider before it shows you anything. No system is perfect; if something goes wrong that affects your data, you will be told.
Age
One-on-one coaching is for adults. The Follow My Split subscription is open to people 13 and older, and members under 18 need a parent or guardian’s permission. We ask for your date of birth when you subscribe so we can check this. ARISE does not knowingly collect information from anyone under 13 — if we learn an account belongs to someone under 13, it will be deleted.
For members under 18 we collect less: ARISE does not ask them for body weight, measurements or progress photos, and they have no messaging with the coach. Their first name may appear on the members’ consistency leaderboard, alongside a rank — never their weight, photos or anything else. A parent or guardian can ask us to delete a minor’s account by emailing the address below.
Changes
If this page changes in a way that matters, the effective date at the top changes and you’ll be told in the app before it applies.
