TakeOff is local-first. Most travel data stays on your device unless you choose iCloud sync or use Apple system services such as StoreKit.

1. Contact

TakeOff is an independent iOS app. Questions about privacy or data handling can be sent to takeoff@sinuk.dev.

2. Data you store in TakeOff

TakeOff stores app data locally with Apple's SwiftData framework, including visited countries, trips, packing items, budgets, saved clocks, saved locations, companion records, and travel document metadata.

Vault document image data is stored locally with the rest of your TakeOff data. TakeOff does not operate an account server and cannot read the data stored only on your device.

3. Optional iCloud sync

If you enable iCloud sync, supported TakeOff data syncs through Apple's private CloudKit database for your Apple ID. You can keep TakeOff local-only, enable main app sync, and separately choose whether vault records should sync.

TakeOff does not receive your iCloud data. To remove iCloud data, use Apple's iCloud storage management tools for the app.

4. Diagnostics and product analytics

Release builds use Firebase Crashlytics to help diagnose crashes. Crash reports may include device model, operating system version, app version, stack traces, and diagnostic identifiers. They do not include your trip notes, document contents, budgets, route contents, or personal travel records.

Release builds also use Firebase Analytics for coarse product telemetry, such as app opens, feature access, paywall display, purchase events, affiliate link impressions/taps, and counts or categories needed to understand feature health. TakeOff does not log your trip notes, document contents, budgets, route contents, or personal travel records as analytics events.

5. Purchases

TakeOff Pro purchases and restores are processed by Apple's StoreKit. TakeOff does not receive or store your payment card information.

6. Permissions

TakeOff asks for permissions only when related features need them: location for travel tools, camera and photo library for trip/document workflows and optional import, Health access for workout-route country import, Face ID for vault unlocking, and notifications for document expiry reminders.

You can change permissions any time in iOS Settings.

7. Third-party links

TakeOff may link to external travel services or websites. Those services are governed by their own policies. TakeOff does not share your personal app data with those providers.

8. Deletion

Deleting TakeOff removes local app data from the device. If iCloud sync was enabled, delete the iCloud copy through iOS or iCloud storage settings. For anything we can help with, email takeoff@sinuk.dev.

9. Changes

This policy may be updated as TakeOff evolves. The date above reflects the latest published version.
