We do not sell or trade your personal data with third parties.
Direct sharing When you choose to export or share a trip or place file directly from the app, that file is shared from your device to whoever you choose to send it to via your chosen sharing method (such as WhatsApp or email). We have no involvement in or visibility of this sharing.
Community sharing Dreckly Days intends to introduce an optional community trip sharing feature, which will allow users and content creators to voluntarily share their trips with the wider Dreckly Days community. This feature will be entirely opt-in. If you choose to share a trip via the community platform:
Personal data stored locally on your device — including places and trips you have not chosen to share — remains private and is never accessed by us

Dreckly Days requests access to your camera and photo gallery solely to allow you to attach photos to saved places. Photos are stored locally on your device in the app's private storage folder. Photos are never uploaded to any server by us.
When you export a trip or place as a .dreckly file, compressed versions of your photos may be included in that file if you choose to share it.
Dreckly Days requests access to your device location to centre the map on your current position when you open the app. Location data is used in real time only and is never stored or transmitted.
You can deny or revoke location permission at any time in your device settings. The app will continue to function without location permission, but the map will not automatically centre on your position.
All your data is stored locally on your device using Android's Room database. We do not have access to this data. If you uninstall the app, all locally stored data will be deleted.
We recommend you periodically export your trips as .dreckly files as a personal backup, as we cannot recover data lost through app uninstallation or device loss.
Dreckly Days is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided personal information through the app, please contact us.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted within the app and on this page with an updated date. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
