Privacy Policy

Last updated: March 26, 2026


Overview

DriveCost (“the app”) is a personal car expense tracker. This privacy policy explains what data the app handles and how.

The short version: the app collects nothing. All your data stays on your device.


Data Collection

DriveCost does not collect, store, transmit, or share any personal data. The app has no analytics, no tracking, no advertising, and no backend server.


Data Storage

All data you enter — cars, fuel entries, expenses, service records — is stored locally on your device using a private SQLite database. This data is never sent anywhere.


iCloud and Backups

DriveCost does not use iCloud or any cloud sync service. If your device is backed up to iCloud or iTunes, your app data may be included in that device backup. That backup is controlled entirely by you and Apple, not by us.


Camera and Photo Library

If you choose to add a photo to a car, the app requests access to your camera or photo library. Photos are stored locally on your device only and are never uploaded or shared.


Third-Party Services

DriveCost does not integrate with any third-party analytics, advertising, or data services.


Children

DriveCost does not knowingly collect data from anyone, including children under 13.


Changes to This Policy

If this policy changes in a future version, the updated policy will be posted here with a revised date.
