Roadpackers

Privacy Policy

Last updated: 14 November 2026

Roadpackers is an iPhone app that shows campsites, wild camping spots, drinking water and other stops along a route. This policy explains what happens to your data when you use the app and this website.

The short version

What the app sends, and why

Search and routes

When you type a place name, the text is sent to our server, which looks it up and returns matching places. When you plan a route, the start, the destination and the travel mode are sent to our server, which calculates the route and finds places along it. Our server does not record these requests: it keeps no log of what you searched for or which routes you planned.

Like any internet service, our server sees your device's network (IP) address while it answers. It keeps the address in memory for about a minute to stop abuse (a limit on requests per minute), and then forgets it.

Your location

If you allow it, the app uses your location to show you on the map and to start a route from where you are. Your location is used on your iPhone; it leaves the device only as the start of a route you ask for, as described above. You can turn location access off in Settings at any time.

The map

Map images are loaded from OpenFreeMap. Like any website, their servers see your IP address and which part of the map is being loaded.

Saved trips and settings

Trips you save and your settings are stored only on your iPhone. They are not sent to us. Deleting a trip, or the app, removes them.

Purchases

Roadpackers Pro is sold through the App Store. Apple handles payment; we never see your name, e-mail address or card details. The app uses RevenueCat to check your purchase and unlock Pro. RevenueCat receives the App Store purchase record under a random ID created by the app. It is not linked to your identity and not used for tracking.

Links that leave the app

Directions open in Apple Maps. A place's website or phone number opens in your browser or phone app. From then on, those services' own privacy policies apply.

This website

This website is a set of static pages. It sets no cookies and has no analytics or tracking scripts. The company that hosts it may keep standard server logs (IP address, page, time) for security and to keep the site running.

Place data

Place information comes from OpenStreetMap, contributed by its community and published under the Open Database License. It describes places, not people.

Children

Roadpackers is not directed at children under 13 and does not knowingly collect their data.

Your rights

Depending on where you live (for example under the GDPR in Europe or KVKK in Türkiye), you may have the right to access, correct or delete personal data about you, and to object to its use. Because we keep no account and no record of your searches or routes, we hold almost nothing about you. For questions, or to ask RevenueCat to delete your anonymous purchase record, contact us.

Changes

If this policy changes, the new version will be published on this page with a new date.
