MilesLogger+ Privacy Policy
MilesLogger+ logs mileage for your own records. This policy describes what the app collects, how it is used, and how you can delete it.
Data we collect
- Precise location, only to record trip routes, start and end points, stops, and saved places. Background location runs while a drive is being confirmed or recorded, or (if you allow Always) to notice that a drive may have started.
- Physical addresses derived from those coordinates via Apple reverse geocoding.
- Content you type: trip notes, category names, place names, and the per-mile rate you set.
- Local notifications, if you allow them, so the app can tell you a trip was saved or ask you to save or discard a drive.
- An iCloud account identifier if iCloud sync is on, so trips can sync across your devices with CloudKit.
What we do not collect
- We do not use advertising, analytics SDKs, or tracking. We do not access the advertising identifier.
- Motion activity stays on this device so the app can tell driving from walking. It is not stored in your trip log or synced.
How data is stored
Trips, routes, and places are stored on your devices. If you are signed into iCloud, Apple CloudKit stores the same records in your iCloud account so they can sync. We do not operate our own servers and we do not sell or share this data with third parties.
Apple Watch
The Apple Watch companion can start or end a trip and show live or today's distance. The iPhone records GPS. A snapshot of trip status may be stored in an App Group on your devices and sent over WatchConnectivity.
Retention and deletion
Data is kept until you delete individual trips or places, use Delete All Data in Settings, or delete the app. Turning off iCloud for this app (or iCloud entirely) stops sync; copies already in iCloud follow Apple's iCloud retention.
Withdrawing consent
Location and Motion can be changed or revoked in iOS Settings. You can still start a trip by hand or log one manually without Always location. Auto-detect requires Always location and, when available, Motion.
Tax estimates
Deduction totals are estimates using the per-mile rate you enter. They are not tax advice, not a filing, and not a guarantee of what you may deduct.
