Privacy Policy
Effective Date: March 1, 2026
The Short Version
We don't collect your data. Full stop.
BikeRight is built with privacy as a core feature, not an afterthought. Your location, your routes, and everything you do in the app stays on your device and never touches our servers.
What We Don't Collect
BikeRight does not collect, store, or transmit any of the following:
- Your location or GPS coordinates
- Routes you generate or ride
- Personal information (name, email, phone number)
- Device identifiers or advertising IDs
- Usage analytics or behavioral data
- Fitness or health information
- Crash reports or diagnostic logs that identify you
There are no analytics SDKs, no crash reporting tools, and no advertising frameworks embedded in BikeRight.
How the App Works
BikeRight generates cycling routes entirely on your device. Here's what happens when you use it:
- Your device's GPS determines your current location locally—this never leaves your phone
- Route generation and safety scoring happen on-device
- Map tiles are loaded from standard mapping services (Apple Maps / OpenStreetMap) as needed to display your route—these providers have their own privacy policies
- No data about your location, your routes, or your rides is ever sent to BikeRight's servers (we don't have any)
No Account Required—Ever
BikeRight does not require you to create an account, sign in, or provide any personal information to use the app. There is no login, no profile, and no cloud sync. You open the app, you ride, you're done.
Third-Party Services
BikeRight uses mapping services to display your routes on a map. These services load map imagery from their own infrastructure. We do not share any information about you or your routes with them beyond what's technically required to display a map tile:
BikeRight does not use any third-party analytics, advertising, or data broker services.
Data Stored on Your Device
Any preferences or saved routes you keep in the app are stored locally on your device using iOS's built-in storage. This data:
- Never leaves your device
- Is protected by your device's built-in security and encryption
- Is automatically deleted when you uninstall the app
- Can be cleared at any time within app settings
Location Permission
BikeRight requests access to your device's location in order to generate routes starting from where you are. When you grant this permission:
- Your location is used only to calculate routes on your device
- It is never transmitted off your device
- You can revoke location access at any time in iOS Settings → Privacy & Security → Location Services
- If you deny location access, you can still enter a starting point manually
Children's Privacy
BikeRight does not collect personal information from anyone, including children under 13. Since we collect no data whatsoever, there is no risk of inadvertently collecting information from minors.
Changes to This Policy
Our commitment is simple: we will never start collecting your data without your explicit, informed consent. If this policy ever changes:
- We will update the "Effective Date" at the top of this page
- We will notify you within the app before any change takes effect
- We will never collect data retroactively
