MyRun PH ("we," "our," or "us") operates the MyRun PH mobile application (the "App") and the website myrunph.com (the "Website"). This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, disclose, and protect your personal information when you use our services.

By using MyRun PH, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.

3. Third-Party Services

We integrate with the following third-party services:

4. Data Storage and Security

Your data is stored using the following methods:
