Accessing the API as a student

[Neferuaten]

Hi, I am doing a fitbit integrated web app for my university thesis project. As the API access form requires some company specific information i.e. website, privacy policy, terms of service, link to where the app will be accessible. I was wondering how and if it would be possible to develop a fitbit integrated app without being a business. The university does not dare fill out the form on a students behalf due to the privacy policy, terms of service and the non existent Application Website.

Any insight would be immensely appreciated.

Hi @Neferuaten 

You can use the Web APIs for personal and academic projects.   Please fill out the form with the best information that describes your scenario.  If you are collecting data from other individuals, then you'll need to have a privacy policy and terms of service that describes how the data will be used.

It has been more than 6 months and I wonder what results you have achieved in your university thesis project. Can you share something and how did you study during the quarantine period and now?
Thanks in advance for the answer!
