Runkeeper is a GPS fitness-tracking app for iOS and Android launched in 2008.[5] [6] [7] In late 2011, Runkeeper secured $10 million in a Series B financing, led by Spark Capital .[8] [9] [10] In February 2016, Runkeeper was acquired by Asics .[11] [12]
Criticism and controversy
[ edit ]
In May 2016, the Runkeeper software came to the attention of the Norwegian Consumer Council for breaching European data protection laws . It is alleged to continue tracking user's locations after the application is terminated and to share this information with advertisers in ways that exceed the bounds of the application's terms and conditions.[13]
