Privacy Policy

Effective Date: June 2026

Welcome to Rail Rota. We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal data. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle data when you use our Android mobile application ("the App").

1. Data Collection and Processing

Rail Rota is designed with privacy in mind. The App does not collect, store, or transmit any personal roster data, shift information, or calendar events to our servers or any third parties. All PDF parsing, roster extraction, and calendar syncing is performed 100% locally on your personal device. Your work schedule remains strictly on your phone.

2. Third-Party Services

While Rail Rota does not collect personal data, we use standard third-party services to support the functionality and monetization of the App. These services may collect anonymous usage data or device identifiers:

• Google AdMob: We use Google AdMob to display advertisements in the free version of the App. AdMob may use advertising IDs and cookies to serve personalized or non-personalized ads based on your device settings.
• RevenueCat: We use RevenueCat to securely manage in-app purchases and subscriptions. RevenueCat processes anonymous transaction receipts to verify subscription status.

3. Permissions Required by the App

• Calendar Access: Required solely to securely export your parsed shifts into your personal device calendar. We do not read or extract your existing personal calendar events.
• Audio Recording (Microphone): Required exclusively for the "Desk Check" widget feature, allowing you to record audio notes locally on your device. Audio files are saved securely to your local storage.
