RouteCard Privacy Policy

Last updated: 2 August 2026

RouteCard is designed to be private. Your route data is processed entirely on your device, and the app does not collect, track, or sell any personal information. This policy covers RouteCard on both iOS and Android.

What stays on your device

GPX and FIT files you open, photos and videos you choose as backgrounds, and the images and videos you export are all processed locally on your device. None of this is uploaded to us or to any third party.

Strava (optional)

If you choose to connect Strava, you authorize RouteCard through Strava's official login. We use a secure helper to exchange the authorization for an access token, which is stored only on your device — in the Keychain on iOS, and in encrypted app storage on Android. We use it solely to fetch your activities at your request. We do not store your Strava data on any server. You can disconnect at any time from the Strava import screen, which revokes RouteCard's access on Strava and deletes the stored token from your device.

Apple Health (optional, iOS only)

If you choose to import a workout from Apple Health, RouteCard reads the workouts, GPS routes and heart rate you allow — and nothing else. That data is processed entirely on your device to draw your card. It is never uploaded, never stored on any server, and never used for advertising or shared with third parties. You can revoke access at any time in Settings → Privacy & Security → Health. The Android app does not read Health Connect or any other health store.

Subscriptions

RouteCard Pro is an auto-renewing subscription. Purchases are handled entirely by Apple's App Store or by Google Play, depending on where you installed the app. We never see or receive your payment details. The store tells the app only whether a subscription is currently active, and that answer is kept on your device so the app works when you are offline. Manage or cancel a subscription in your App Store or Google Play account settings.

Maps

When you use a map background, map image tiles are requested from third-party map providers (OpenStreetMap, CARTO, and Esri). Those providers receive standard network information (such as your IP address and which tiles were requested) to deliver the map, subject to their own privacy policies.

Permissions

On Android, RouteCard requests a single permission: internet access. It is used only to fetch map tiles when you choose a map background, to sign in to Strava if you choose to, and to check your subscription with Google Play. The app asks for no location permission — it reads the route from the file you give it, and never records your position. It asks for no storage permission either; files reach it through the system file picker or a share sheet, one file at a time, at your request.

Analytics & tracking

RouteCard contains no analytics, advertising, or tracking SDKs. We do not use the Advertising Identifier and do not track you across apps or websites.

Children

RouteCard does not knowingly collect any personal information from children under 13.

Changes to this policy

If this policy changes, we will update this page and revise the date above.
