Privacy Policy
Last updated September 2026
The short version: SkyTrackr is built by an independent developer, not a company. We collect the minimum needed to run the app's features, we don't sell your data, and anything sensitive you store in the app (like passport photos in the Travel Vault) stays on your own device — it's never uploaded anywhere.
What we collect
When you create an account, we store your email, a username, and basic profile info (like your subscription plan and feature usage counts) in our database, so the app can work across sessions.
- Account data: email, username, and profile details you provide when signing up.
- Usage data: how many searches/messages you've used this month, so free/paid plan limits work correctly.
- Chat history: conversations with Sky AI are saved to your account so you can revisit them.
- Travel Vault documents: photos you save (like passports or tickets) are encrypted and stored only on your own device, protected by Face ID/Touch ID. We never receive or store copies of these.
Third-party services we use
SkyTrackr is built on top of several services to provide its features. Using the app means the relevant data below is shared with them:
- Firebase (Google): handles account login and stores your profile/usage data.
- RevenueCat, and Apple/Google: process subscription payments. We never see or store your card details ourselves.
- Google Gemini: powers the Sky AI assistant — messages you send to it are processed by Google's Gemini API.
- Flight, weather, and currency data providers: your search queries (like a flight number or city name) are sent to these providers to fetch results.
- Travelpayouts: when you tap "Book" on a flight or hotel, you're taken to a real booking site (like Aviasales) through an affiliate link. That site has its own privacy policy governing what happens once you're there.
What we don't do
- We don't sell your personal data to anyone.
- We don't upload your Travel Vault documents to any server.
- We don't collect payment card details directly — that's handled by Apple/Google/RevenueCat.
Children's privacy
SkyTrackr is a general travel app and isn't specifically directed at children. We don't knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, contact us and we'll remove it.
Your choices
You can delete your account at any time from Settings, which removes your profile and usage data from our database. Travel Vault documents are already only on your device, so uninstalling the app removes them.

Note: SkyTrackr is an independent, solo-developer project without a registered business entity. This policy describes our actual practices in plain language rather than dense legal text, and will be updated as the app grows.
