Privacy
This site
There are no analytics, no tracking cookies and no third-party resources. Your theme choice stays in your browser and is sent to nobody; the language lives in the address.
The web server keeps ordinary access logs, as any site does, used only to keep it running.
The app
The app sends nothing anywhere except to the address you configure and the numbers you choose to text. There is no account, no analytics, no central service: whoever writes the app cannot see where you go.
The maps inside the app
The map is only there to pick destinations and never opens by itself: it appears when you tap Pick on the map or edit a saved point. Anyone using the app with text messages alone, or with an endpoint of their own, never contacts a map service at all.
When you do open it, the tiles come from OpenFreeMap, which therefore receives the request and sees the area you are looking at. Their policy states that they do not normally log IP addresses and may do so only temporarily in case of attacks or abuse, for no more than thirty days, deleting the logs afterwards. They may use Cloudflare as a delivery network.
If you would rather contact no external service, the map settings let you point at a style of your own: from then on the tiles come from wherever you say.
The update check
The app and the server can check whether a newer version has come out. It is optional and off by default, because to do it they ask GitHub for a small file, and in asking they tell it their IP address.
When on, the app checks every 7, 14 or 30 days as you choose, and the server every two weeks; both can also be asked on the spot. Nothing about you is sent, and nothing is downloaded or installed: if a new version exists they say so, and that is all.
The demo
The journeys you see are generated and belong to nobody. Nothing you do in there is recorded.
The landing page shows a still image: until you pick a journey, no request leaves for the outside. Once you open a journey, your browser connects directly to the OpenStreetMap Foundation servers to fetch the tiles; from that moment your IP address reaches them.
Their policy states that they collect IP address, browser and device type, operating system, referring page, date and time. The processing rests on legitimate interest, GDPR article 6.1f. The Foundation is based in the United Kingdom. We are not an intermediary and have no control over that processing.
The demo maps remain © OpenStreetMap contributors, of course.
If you run the server
The data lives on your hosting and the responsibility is yours. One thing is worth keeping in mind: sharing a journey link means sharing the roads you took, where you stopped and when; over time, your home and your workplace too. A message forwarded into a group by mistake cannot be called back.
