Overview

RŌL Progress is a training journal and rank-progress tracker for Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu students, instructors, and academies. It's used by RŌL Academy and by other academies and students who use the app for their own training.

Your information is private, enforced by access controls at the database level, not just by what the app's screens show. No other student, no other academy, and no outside company or advertiser can see it — it is never sold or shared beyond your own academy. Within your academy, your own instructors and admin can see your training data to support your coaching.

This policy covers the RŌL Progress web app only. It does not cover other, separate RŌL Academy products (like RŌL Academy TV or the RŌL Radio podcast), which may have their own privacy practices.

What we collect

When you create an account, we collect the information you provide directly:

As you use the app, we collect what you choose to log:

We also automatically collect some technical information to keep the app working: when you log in, your general app usage (like which tabs you visit), and basic error logs if something goes wrong (see Security below).

Health-related information

This is the most sensitive information the app handles — please read this section carefully before deciding whether to log it.

RŌL Progress includes optional features for logging information that relates to your physical and mental wellbeing:

All of these are optional. You are never required to log health-related information to use the app's core training-log features. This information is visible to you and to your academy's instructors and admin (who use it to support your training and check in on how you're doing) — it is never sold, and we do not share it with any outside party for advertising or any other purpose.

RŌL Progress is not a medical device and does not provide medical advice. Nothing in the app is a substitute for consulting a doctor or other qualified health professional.

How we use your information

We use the information you provide to:

We do not use your information for advertising, and we do not sell your information to anyone.

Who can see your information

WhoWhat they can see
YouAll of your own information
Your academy's instructors and adminYour training log, notes, check-ins, measurements, goals, competitions, and skill ratings — used to support your training
Other studentsOnly what you choose to share: your name and rank on the leaderboard, if you opt in. Your travel log, journal, and everything else you record stays private to you and your academy's staff.

We do not share your personal information with outside companies for their own marketing or business purposes. We do use a small number of service providers to run the app (see Where your data is stored) — they process data only to provide the app, not for their own purposes.

Where your data is stored

RŌL Progress stores your data using Supabase, a database and backend hosting provider. Supabase stores and secures the underlying data on our behalf. We also rely on standard web infrastructure providers to host and deliver the app itself.

These providers are data processors — they store data on our behalf and don't use it for their own purposes.

Information about minors

RŌL Progress is used by academies that serve students of all ages, including children. If you are a parent or guardian creating or managing an account for a child, or if your child has their own account, this section applies to you.

For student accounts belonging to minors, a parent or guardian should review this policy and be aware of what the account can log, including the optional health-related features described above. If you have questions about a minor's account, or would like to review, correct, or delete a minor's information, please contact your academy directly (see Contact).

How long we keep your data

We keep your account and training data for as long as your account is active. If your account is inactive for an extended period, your academy may archive or remove it — you'll see a note about this when you create your account.

If your account is deleted by your academy's admin, your profile and login are removed. Some records tied to your training history may be retained by the academy as part of their normal business records, separate from your account access.

Your choices and rights

Security

We use industry-standard measures to protect your information, including encrypted connections and access controls that limit who can see student data. Passwords are never stored in plain text.

No system is perfectly secure. If we become aware of a data breach affecting your information, we will take reasonable steps to notify affected users.

The app keeps an internal error log to help us find and fix bugs. This log may include technical details about what happened (like an error message) but is used for troubleshooting, not for tracking your activity.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time as the app changes. If we make significant changes, we'll update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Continued use of the app after a change means you accept the updated policy.

Contact

Questions about this policy, or requests about your data, should be directed to your academy's instructor or admin — they manage your account and can help with data questions specific to your academy.
