Privacy Policy
Effective: 2026-05-18 — Bundle ID: com.ootssu.plotta
What we collect
- Account info: your email address (if you sign up with email or Google), or an opaque Apple/Google user identifier. Stored in Supabase Auth and used only to identify your account. A display name (editable by you) is shown next to lands you claim.
- Walking routes (precise location): while a walking session is active, Plotta records your GPS coordinates so we can draw your path and detect when you've closed a loop. The raw point-by-point path is stored privately under your account and is never shown to other players.
- Land polygons: when you close a loop, the resulting polygon (the outline of the area) is stored and shown on the map together with your display name and chosen color so other players can see who owns each plot.
- Usage data: aggregate stats such as total area, number of lands, and event timestamps. Used for the leaderboard and for in-app history.
What we don't collect
- We do not track your location when no walking session is active.
- We do not use advertising identifiers (IDFA/IDFV for ads).
- We do not track you across other apps or websites.
- We do not access your contacts, photos, camera, microphone, or health data.
- We do not embed third-party analytics SDKs or ad networks.
- We never share your raw walking path. Only the closed polygon outlines are public on the map.
Third-party services we use
- Apple MapKit — renders the map. No personal data is sent to Apple beyond what is needed to display map tiles.
- Supabase — database and authentication host. Stores your account, your raw walking paths (private), your land polygons (public-on-map), and event history.
- Apple Sign in with Apple & Google OAuth — sign-in only. We receive an opaque user identifier and your email (only if you choose to share it).
Data retention & deletion
You can delete your account from Settings → Sign out → Delete account. Deletion removes your user record, your walking paths, your land polygons, and your event history within 30 days. Other players' lands are unaffected.
Background location
Plotta requests "Always" location permission so we can keep recording your route when the screen is off during a walking session. The blue location indicator at the top of your screen will appear while a session is active. We do not record your location at any other time — there are no geofences and no Significant Location Change subscriptions outside of an active session.
Children
Plotta is intended for users 12 and older. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 12.
Changes
If we make material changes to this policy we'll update the Effective date above and notify you in-app.
