Last Updated: May 11, 2026

Overview

Flight Rights Tracker (“we,” “our,” or “the app”) is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information.

Information We Collect

Information You Provide

• Email Address (optional): When you choose to subscribe for updates, we collect your email address to send you app updates, flight rights tips, and feature announcements.
• • Flight Information: Flight numbers, airports, and dates you enter to track your flights.
  • • Profile Information (optional): Your name, preferred airline, and loyalty program numbers if you choose to save them.

    • • Notification Preferences: Your choices about which types of push notifications to receive (Pro subscribers only).

      • Automatically Collected Information

      • • Device Information: We do not collect device identifiers or usage analytics.
        • • Location Data: We do not collect or track your location.

          • • Device Token: If you are a Pro subscriber and enable push notifications, Apple assigns a device token used solely to deliver local notifications on your device. This token is stored locally and is not sent to our servers.

            • How We Use Your Information

            • We use the information we collect to:
            • • Store and display your tracked flights within the app
              • • Run our decision engine to analyze your flight status and recommend actions (all processing happens locally on your device)
                • • Send local push notifications about decision changes and benefit thresholds (Pro subscribers only, with your permission)
                  • • Send optional email updates about new features and flight rights information (only if you subscribe)
                    • • Manage your subscription status through RevenueCat

                      • • Improve app functionality and user experience

                        • Data Storage

                        • • Flight Data: Stored locally on your device using secure storage (AsyncStorage). This includes flight snapshots used by our decision engine to detect changes between polling cycles. This data never leaves your device.
                          • • Decision Engine Data: Flight state snapshots, decision history, and notification cooldown timestamps are stored locally on your device. No decision data is transmitted externally.
                            • • Notification Preferences: Stored locally on your device.

                              • • Email Addresses: Stored securely in an encrypted database on Railway.app servers located in the United States.

                                • Data Sharing

                                • We do not sell, trade, or share your personal information with third parties, except:
                                • • AviationStack API: When you search for a flight, we send the flight number and date to AviationStack’s API to retrieve real-time flight data. AviationStack’s privacy policy applies to this data transmission.

                                  • • RevenueCat: We use RevenueCat to manage in-app subscriptions. RevenueCat receives an anonymous app user ID and purchase receipts from Apple to verify your subscription status. RevenueCat does not receive your name, email, or flight data. See RevenueCat’s privacy policy.

                                    • We will never share your email address with third parties for marketing purposes.
