I am looking for a good fitness tracker to start doing cardio in a more measured way.
I was interested in Polar and Oura as EU alternatives (both Finnish companies), but both send data (health data, which is sensitive according to Article 9 of the GDPR) to AWS.
Are you aware of any EU solutions, or at least non-US, Chinese, Russian, or Israeli solutions, that do not send my data to companies in those countries?
I would like to be able to organize something self-hosted, but I don’t think I’m capable of doing that yet.
So, you’re fine with fitness trackers sending data to China, Russia, any company anywhere (because data leaks happen, or fuck it, why should any company have my data).
Or do you want a fitness tracker that simply respects privacy?
They have listed the list of nations they don’t trust already
The problem is trust
