Summary

What we collect and why

Without an account

The app stores your saved places, checklist progress, check-ins and interests on your phone only. It downloads public content (places, dishes, deals, restaurants), weather from the National Environment Agency and exchange rates from Frankfurter. These requests contain no personal identifiers.

With an account

When you sign in with Apple or Google we receive a unique user ID, your name (if you share it) and your email address. We use them to create your profile and to let you delete your account. Apple may provide a private relay email instead of your real one.

Content you create is stored in our database so it can sync and, where you choose, be shared:

Usage analytics

We record simple product events (for example “viewed a place”, “saved a place”, “tapped a ticket link”) with a timestamp and, if signed in, your user ID. We use this to understand which features are useful. We do not use third-party analytics or advertising SDKs.

Location

The Map tab asks for location permission the first time you open it. Your location is processed on the device by Apple’s MapKit to show the blue dot and to open directions. We never receive or store your location.

Photos

When you attach a photo to a tip or a ticket, the app uses Apple’s photo picker, which gives us access only to the photo you select.

Third parties

Retention and deletion

Account data is kept until you delete your account. Choose Profile → Delete my account and data in the app; this removes your profile, trips, tips, photos, tickets and analytics events linked to your ID immediately. You can also email us and we will do it within 7 days.

Children

The app is not directed at children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect their data.

Your rights

Under the Australian Privacy Act and, where applicable, the GDPR and New Zealand’s Privacy Act, you can ask for a copy of your data, correct it or have it deleted. Email admin@infonex.com.au.

Changes

We will post any changes here and update the effective date. Material changes will be announced in the app.
