David Place (t/a Lesplace) ("we", "us", "our") provides Passagebook for Mac, iPhone and iPad. This policy explains local trip storage, optional iCloud sync and sharing, device location, and public publication.
1. Data Collection
Passagebook stores trips, tracks, photos, stops and reports in your local library. If you enable iCloud, trip data can sync through Apple’s iCloud services to your devices. Sharing a trip through iCloud makes its shared content available to the participants you invite. These private features are separate from public publication.
2. Analytics & Tracking
We do not use any analytics frameworks, advertising identifiers, or third-party tracking services.
3. Network Access
The app uses network access for:
- Verifying purchases and subscriptions with Apple and authorizing hosted report publication with Passagebook’s hosting service.
- Optional iCloud synchronization, invited trip sharing, and explicit publication of the Online Logbook or reports.
- Connecting to a local Signal K server on your network, if you choose to use that feature.
When you explicitly publish an Online Logbook or report, the selected publication data is transmitted to Apple’s CloudKit and/or Passagebook’s hosting infrastructure, including Cloudflare. Anyone with its public address can read the published content according to your publication privacy choices. Routes can be included. Recording a route alone never makes it public.
4. Photos & Location Data
When you import photos, Passagebook can read their GPS metadata to place them on the map. If you explicitly enable Use This Device Location in an ongoing trip’s Log Options, Passagebook requests location access and records device positions, speed and course with that trip. Turn the control off or end the trip to stop recording. Device fixes and distances are approximate.
Recorded location data is stored locally with your trip and can be included in the iCloud sync and invited sharing described above. Explicit Online Logbook or report publication can expose the route under the existing publication privacy choices. The app does not request Always location access. Recording can be interrupted when the app closes or is terminated; it does not promise uninterrupted collection.
5. Subscriptions & Payments
Apple processes payments. Passagebook’s hosting service verifies hosted access using purchase and account records; we do not receive your payment card details.
6. Data Retention
You control your local library. Removing the app or local files does not by itself withdraw a public publication or delete copies in iCloud, backups, or recipients’ devices. Use the publication controls to unpublish public content and the app’s iCloud controls to manage cloud data. Others may retain content they previously downloaded.
7. Children's Privacy
Passagebook is not directed at children under 13 and does not knowingly collect information from children.
8. Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected in the app with an updated effective date.
