  • Which trail stops you have marked as "visited"
  • Whether you have viewed the welcome screen

This data is stored using iOS standard storage (UserDefaults) and remains on your device only.

We do not collect, store, or transmit:

  • Personal identification information
  • Email addresses or contact information
  • Device identifiers
  • Analytics or usage statistics
  • Your precise location history

Third Party Services

The App uses the following third-party services:

Mapbox

The App uses Mapbox to display interactive maps. When you use the map features, Mapbox may collect certain data according to their privacy policy. Please review Mapbox's Privacy Policy for more information.

Apple Maps

When you use the "Get Directions" feature, the App opens Apple Maps, which is subject to Apple's Privacy Policy.
