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.

    Garmin then use the FOSS Garmin connect app I forget the name. You get all the fancy important data and monitoring. None of the worries. Or just don’t sync your data and monitor over time on the watch itself. Batteries are second to none. Garmin is the way to go. I’ve tried them all.
