1. Who we are

Mileage Track is developed by sl Wang. In this policy, “Mileage Track,” “we,” “us” and “our” refer to the developer of the app and operator of its related services.

This policy covers the Mileage Track iPhone app, its account and supporting services, and these support pages. Services you choose to use alongside the app, such as Apple services or your email provider, also have their own privacy policies.

Contact us at with privacy questions or requests.

2. Information we use

The information involved depends on the permissions you allow and the features you choose.

Trip records
Trip start and end places, precise route coordinates, dates, times, distance, purpose and classification, mileage values, vehicles, notes, parking and tolls, and photos you attach. These records are stored on your iPhone.
Location & motion
Location readings record routes and calculate distance. Background access supports automatic trip detection. Available Motion & Fitness information helps distinguish driving from other movement. Sensor permissions and active recording checkpoints remain on your device.
Preferences & contacts
Favorite places, work schedules, vehicle details, purposes and rates, report contacts, your report email address and other app preferences. Report contacts are the details you save for reports; a general support request does not automatically include them.
Account sign-in
When you sign in with Apple, the service receives the information needed to authenticate you and maintain an account and session. Apple may share an email address, including a private relay address. Your saved profile name is also associated with the account.
Account backup
After sign-in, a successful backup uploads completed trips, exact routes, attached photos, favorite places, vehicles, report contacts, notes and settings to the Mileage Track service. This enables restoration on another iPhone. Signing in does not mean that a backup has already completed; check the backup status in the app.
Subscriptions and purchases
Apple processes subscription payments. The app verifies Apple-signed transactions to provide and restore Pro. Our subscription notification service (iOSNotify at notify.happypig.cloud) receives and stores Apple-signed purchase, trial, renewal, expiration and refund notifications, including product and transaction identifiers, dates, subscription status, storefront, prices and currency when supplied by Apple. A pseudonymous account token can associate these records with your Mileage Track account. We do not receive your payment card number or Apple Account password. Subscription notifications do not contain your trip routes or coordinates.
Service requests
Map and address queries, optional Live Activity registration and update data, and information needed to process account requests. Online services also receive network information, such as an IP address, request time, browser or device information and error details, to handle connections, protect the service and investigate failures. Infrastructure providers may keep access and security logs.
Support messages
Your email address, the message you send, and any screenshots or attachments you choose to include. A trip issue draft may contain that trip’s start and end places, times, distance, source and trip ID.

3. Why we use this information

We use subscription records and associated account identifiers to operate and support subscriptions, investigate purchase issues, prevent fraud, and analyze trials, renewals, cancellations, refunds and revenue. This analysis is not advertising tracking and does not combine your trip locations with subscription events. Paywall interaction diagnostics currently stay in the app’s local logs; no separate client analytics platform receives those events.

We use the information described above to provide the features you choose: record and organize trips, calculate distance and mileage values, show maps and addresses, create reports, maintain account access, back up and restore records, deliver Live Activity updates, and respond to support requests.

The current app does not include an advertising SDK or a service for tracking you across other companies’ apps and websites. We do not sell your trip history or use it for targeted advertising.

The public demo supports local trip records and report exports without sign-in; its data stays separate and is not backed up to an account. Sign in with Apple to use your own journal and account backup. Signing out pauses recording and access to your account journal while preserving its local records. Online services involve the data transfers described below.

4. Maps and location services

Apple Maps. Apple receives the requests needed to display maps. Map images are temporary display content and are not included in mileage exports or account backups.

Geoapify. Place searches send your search text through the authenticated Mileage Track service to Geoapify. Endpoint address lookups send one coordinate and a language code; they do not send the entire GPS trail. These lookups can continue briefly in the background after a trip ends. Address results may be cached to avoid repeated requests.

Manual route calculations send the precise start and end coordinates to Geoapify through Mileage Track, including a return leg for a round trip. The Mileage Track route endpoint does not persist the route-calculation request as an account record. Geoapify may retain API request bodies, headers, IP addresses and timestamps for service operation under its own policy. A trip you save follows the normal local-storage and account-backup behavior. Geoapify processes API requests under its own privacy policy.

US road-name fallback. When an endpoint has no usable street name, Mileage Track may send that single endpoint coordinate to the U.S. Census Bureau’s TIGERweb service to identify a nearby road.

Source notices are preserved with saved results and included in reports. Natural Earth public-domain data is bundled only for map coordinate display adaptation; no information is sent to Natural Earth. Online lookups require an internet connection.

5. Background Live Activities

If you connect Background Live Activities, the Mileage Track service receives an installation identifier, push tokens and a live trip summary so it can deliver updates through Apple’s push service.

This feature does not send the complete live GPS route to the service. Completed routes can separately be included in account backup after you sign in. Turning off Live Activities stops new live summaries and unregisters the device’s start token.

6. Reports, exports and support

PDF and CSV reports are generated on your iPhone using the trips and fields you select. When you share a report, it goes to the app, storage location or recipient you choose. Report contacts and other saved report preferences may also be part of your account backup.

The current app version does not use the Mileage Track server to send report emails. If you open an email draft, review its recipients and contents and send it through your email app. Preparing a report or a draft does not itself send an email.

General support drafts contain the text you enter and do not automatically attach your trips, locations or contacts. A trip-specific issue draft can include the trip details listed above. Your email provider processes the message when you send it, and we receive it so we can help you.

Files already exported or sent are outside the app’s storage controls. Deleting a trip or account does not recall those copies.

7. Services involved in processing

Information can be processed by providers needed for the features you use:

  • Apple: Apple sign-in, mapping and location-related services, push delivery, and any device backup you enable through Apple.
  • Geoapify and the U.S. Census Bureau: the address and route requests described above.
  • Hosting infrastructure: the Mileage Track backend and account storage run on Alibaba Cloud infrastructure in Singapore.
  • Website hosting: these public support and legal pages are hosted on Tencent Cloud infrastructure in the United States. Website requests are separate from the app account service in Singapore.
  • Email and sharing providers: the services used to deliver messages you send us and the apps or recipients you select when sharing a report.

Using the online features may therefore involve processing information outside the country where you live. The information sent depends on the feature you choose; account archives are uploaded when synchronization succeeds; check the status in the app.

For details about providers’ own handling of information, see Apple’s privacy information, Geoapify’s Privacy Policy, the Census Bureau’s privacy information and Alibaba Cloud’s Privacy Policy and Tencent Cloud’s Privacy Policy.

8. Your permissions and controls

  • Pause tracking: use Settings → Auto-detection in Mileage Track.
  • Change permissions: review the app’s location, Motion & Fitness, camera, photo and notification access in iPhone Settings. Camera or photo access supports attaching photos to a trip.
  • Use manual entry: add trips without granting location or motion access.
  • Review and correct records: edit your trips, purposes, notes, vehicles and other saved information in the app.
  • Keep a copy: export selected mileage records as PDF or CSV. An export is a report, not a complete substitute for an account backup with all route and photo data.
  • Sign out: signing out pauses recording, journal access and account backup. It keeps local data and does not delete the existing online account archive. Sign in again to resume use.
  • Control Live Activities: turn off Background Live Activities to stop new live summaries.
  • Delete the account: use Settings → Account → Request account deletion and confirm the request.

For help accessing, correcting or deleting information, contact us using the address below. We may need information sufficient to verify that the request concerns your account. Do not send your Apple password or a sign-in verification code.

9. Retention and deletion

Subscription records. Apple transaction notifications are stored separately from your account archive. Deleting your Mileage Track account does not automatically delete these records or cancel an Apple subscription. Contact us to request access or deletion; records may need to be retained for purchase support, fraud prevention or applicable legal obligations. Manage or cancel subscriptions in Apple’s subscription settings. Apple controls records it holds under its own privacy policy.

On your iPhone. Local trip data remains in the app until you remove it or the app’s local data. Deleted trips may remain in Recently Deleted until removed there. iPhone or computer backups may contain separate copies according to your device backup settings.

On the active account service. The service retains your account and saved account archive to provide backup and restore while the account exists. A successful in-app account deletion removes your account, saved profile and archive from the active service. If deletion fails, the account remains available so you can retry; contact support if the request cannot complete.

Operational backups. Separate server backups may contain earlier copies of account information. These backups are currently removed through operational maintenance rather than a fixed automatic expiration schedule, so deleting an account does not immediately erase historical copies. They are kept separately for recovery, not used as the live account archive. Contact us about deletion of remaining backup copies or other retention questions.

Other copies. Deleting your online account leaves trips already saved on your iPhone in place. You must sign in again to use the app. To remove the device copy without signing in, delete the app and its data in iPhone Settings; offloading alone retains data. Copies on other devices, exports you saved, reports you sent and emails held by your email provider or recipients require separate handling.

Support correspondence. A message you send to support is held in the support mailbox separately from the account database. Contact us to request removal of correspondence; deleting your app account does not automatically remove it.

10. Privacy requests and US state rights

Contact us to request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information, or a copy of information associated with your account. Depending on where you live and which laws apply, these may also be legal rights. You may have rights to appeal a denied request or use an authorized agent. Email us with “Privacy request” or “Privacy appeal” in the subject and explain what you need; we may verify your identity or the agent’s authority. We handle applicable statutory requests within the periods required by law and will not discriminate against you for exercising your rights.

We do not sell personal information, share it for cross-context behavioral advertising, or use precise location for targeted advertising. Precise location is used for the trip and mapping functions described here, subject to your device permissions. This site has no advertising tracking to opt out of.

11. Children

Mileage Track is a work-mileage tool for drivers and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided information, contact us so we can investigate and take appropriate steps to remove it. An App Store content age rating is not a statement that an account is appropriate for every age.

12. Security

Account archive transfers use HTTPS. Account archive data is encrypted in storage on the Mileage Track service, and account access is authenticated. This is server-side encryption; it is not a claim that the service uses end-to-end encryption.

No storage or transmission method is completely secure. Keep your iPhone protected, keep your Apple account credentials private, and review report recipients before sharing. Do not send passwords or verification codes to support.

13. This website and policy changes

These support and legal pages do not include analytics scripts, advertising trackers, third-party fonts, sign-in forms or cookies set by the page code. The Support page uses a small local script only to open a linked help topic. Loading a hosted page sends your IP address, requested page, request time and browser information to the web server and hosting provider; these can be recorded in access and security logs to operate and protect the site. External links and your email app are governed by the relevant providers’ practices.

We may update this policy when the app or its data practices change. The current text and its update date will appear on this page. Material changes will be communicated through an appropriate notice when required. We will seek consent where required before using information for a new purpose. Review the policy when choosing to enable new online features.
