Customize Privacy Settings

Your privacy is important to us, and we want to give you the tools to customize who sees your profile and fitness activity. 

Updating Your Default Privacy Settings

To change your privacy settings from the app, open the menu > tap "Settings" > tap "Privacy." From here, you can adjust the default settings for your profile, workouts, and routes.

Please note that updating your default privacy settings will only affect future activities. If you would like to change the privacy settings for past workouts or routes, you will need to do so for each one.

Profile Privacy Settings

A profile with a privacy setting of "Everyone" can be viewed by all MapMy users and will be returned in search results. MapMy members can view your profile, achievements, friends, any recent workout or route data provided, and send friend requests. 

Setting your profile privacy to "Friends" means that your profile will still appear in search results, but displayed data is limited to account creation date, the total number of maps, the total number of workouts, and any mutual friends you may have. MapMy members may send you a friend request. 

If your profile privacy setting is "Only Me," other MapMy users are unable to view your profile and it will not be returned in any search results. Friend requests cannot be sent to you.

No matter what your profile privacy setting is, some account information and details will always remain private, including: 

• Height
• Weight
• Age

Workout Privacy Settings

You can change workout privacy settings on our mobile app by following the instructions below:

Open the MapMy app > tap the clipboard icon from the bottom menu > tap "Workouts" > select a workout > tap the "..." icon at the top right > tap Edit > tap "Visible To" > select your preferred setting > tap Save Workout. 

Route Privacy Settings

You can change route privacy settings on our website by following the instructions below:

Log in to www.MapMyFitness.com > hover over the "Routes tab at the top menu > select "My Routes" from the drop down menu > select a route > click on the current privacy setting to update it. 

You can choose from the following options for route privacy: 

• Everyone
• Friends
• Just Me
• Accessible (able to be linked)

On the My Routes screen, the privacy status of each route can be seen under the "Visibility" column.

Private routes will not show up in search results and will only be viewable to the creator. Privacy settings can affect whether friends see Activity Feed posts, receive push notifications, and whether or not maps will appear when embedded on a website or shared on social media.
