Maptinerary

Privacy Policy

Effective date: 18 September 2026 · Applies to the Maptinerary app on iOS and Android.

Maptinerary is a trip-planning app: you save places, build day-by-day plans, and open them in your map app of choice. This page explains, plainly, what the app does and doesn't do with your information.

In short: your trip data — places, notes, day plans — stays on your device. Nothing is uploaded to us unless you explicitly export or share it yourself. The only things that ever leave your device are an anonymous usage event (if you opt in) and a promo code you choose to redeem.

What stays on your device

Everything you build in Maptinerary — saved places, coordinates, notes, day plans, routes, and accommodation assignments — is stored locally on your device (and shared between the app and its share extension via an iOS App Group / Android app-private storage). We do not operate a server that stores your itinerary, and we cannot see it.

Exporting a trip (as a file) or sharing a place into the app are actions you take deliberately; the resulting file goes wherever you send it, under your control.

What we collect

Diagnostics (always local)

The app keeps a rolling local log of technical events (app start, errors, which optional backend features are configured) to help you troubleshoot. This log never leaves your device unless you tap "Export diagnostics" and choose to send the file somewhere yourself.

Product analytics (opt-in, off by default)

If you turn on analytics in Settings, the app sends a small, fixed set of anonymous events to our analytics endpoint:

Sent	Never sent
An anonymous random ID (not tied to your name, email, or an advertising ID) Event name — one of: app start, trip created/imported, plan imported, place saved, map handoff, diagnostics exported Timestamp, app version, platform, OS version Two-letter device locale country (a device setting, not GPS)	Itinerary text, place names, notes, or addresses Coordinates or precise location Clipboard contents or imported/exported files Advertising ID, email, or account identity

The event list is fixed in the app's code — it cannot send arbitrary custom properties. Raw analytics events are deleted after 13 months.

Promo code redemption

If you redeem a promo code, the app registers your anonymous device ID with our access service so it can grant the corresponding entitlement. This exchange contains the code and the anonymous ID — no personal information.

Maps and third-party apps

When you open a place or route, Maptinerary hands off to a map app you choose — Naver Map, KakaoMap, Google Maps, or Waze — by launching that app (or its website as a fallback) with the destination you selected. That handoff is a normal app link; Maptinerary does not send your data to those providers beyond the destination you asked to open, and each app's own privacy policy governs what happens once it opens.

What we don't do

No account or sign-in is required to use the app.
No advertising, ad tracking, or ad identifiers.
No selling or sharing of personal data with third parties for their own marketing.
No location tracking in the background — the app only uses coordinates you or your imports provide.

Your choices

Analytics can be turned on or off at any time in Settings.
You can export or delete your trip data at any time from within the app.
To request deletion of any analytics events tied to your anonymous ID, contact us below with that ID (visible in the app's diagnostics export) and we'll delete the matching rows.

Changes to this policy

If this policy changes in a way that affects what we collect, we'll update the effective date above and, where required, notify you in the app.
