Your data

Where is my data stored?

Trips are stored and processed on your iPhone and are not automatically uploaded. No manual registration is needed: CapDrive creates a guest identity for Plus. Our server and RevenueCat process account identifiers and purchase information; see the Privacy Policy.

Backups and a new iPhone

Trip recordings aren't included in iCloud or computer backups, and CapDrive can't transfer them to another device. Setting up a new iPhone from a backup won't bring your trips over, and deleting CapDrive deletes all of its trips.

You can export route files or share images to keep some results, but these are not complete trip backups and cannot be imported into CapDrive to restore trips.

Do I need an internet connection?

Measuring and recording work offline. Maps need a connection to load. Purchasing, restoring and verifying Plus require a connection. Previously verified access may remain available temporarily; repeated verification failures or expiry can limit monthly Plus until verification succeeds. Restoring purchases does not restore trips. Uploading a trip report also requires an internet connection.

Privacy

CapDrive requests iOS tracking permission at startup when a choice is needed. Denying tracking does not disable app features. Meta receives app-use events, the CapDrive account UUID and verified new purchase events as described in the Privacy Policy; IDFA is disabled when tracking is denied or restricted. Driving routes and sensor recordings are not sent to Meta.

We can access only trip reports you explicitly upload, even if you do not send the email. Apple Maps, optional Apple analytics, email and website requests are described in the Privacy Policy. For privacy requests, contact support@capdrive.app.
