Privacy Policy

Effective 1 June 2026. Last updated 19 May 2026.

The Red Dot Tracker app collects no personal data: no accounts, no analytics, no third-party trackers, no ad networks. The reddottracker.com website uses Plausible Analytics for cookieless, aggregate visitor statistics — no personal data, no cookies. This page explains both, and what the exceptions are.

The short version

In detail

Data we collect

None. The app does not ask for your name, email, phone number, location, contacts, photos, or any other personal information. The app does not require an account.

Data the app stores locally on your device

The app stores the data you enter — favourites, your collection (serial numbers, purchase dates, prices, notes), quiz progress — locally on your device. This data never leaves your device unless you turn on iCloud sync.

iCloud sync

If iCloud is enabled for the app in your iOS / iPadOS / macOS settings, your favourites and My Collection data sync via Apple's CloudKit service into your private CloudKit database. This database lives inside your Apple ID. Only you — and Apple — can access it. The developer cannot.

iCloud usage is governed by Apple's Privacy Policy. You can turn iCloud sync off at any time in Settings → [your name] → iCloud.

App Store analytics

Apple provides developers with aggregate, anonymised reports about an app's downloads, sessions, and crashes via App Store Connect. We can see numbers like "X installs in Germany this month" but we cannot identify any individual user. These reports are produced and controlled by Apple.

Website analytics

This website (reddottracker.com) uses Plausible Analytics for aggregate, cookieless visitor statistics. Plausible is a privacy-focused, open-source analytics tool hosted in the European Union. It sets no cookies, stores no personal data, and uses a daily-rotated salted hash to count unique visitors without identifying anyone — that hash is destroyed every 24 hours.

What is recorded: page URL, referrer, country (derived from IP, not stored), browser, and screen size. What is not recorded: your IP address, any personal identifier, any cross-site activity. We see aggregate numbers — "this page got X visits this week" — never individual sessions.

Legal basis: Art. 6 (1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in understanding how the site is used to improve it). Because no personal data is processed and no terminal-equipment storage takes place, no consent under § 25 TTDSG is required.

Plausible's own data policy: plausible.io/data-policy.

Network requests

The app makes no network requests other than to Apple's iCloud / CloudKit infrastructure on your behalf (if iCloud sync is enabled). It contacts no other server. It contains no third-party SDKs, no tracking pixels, no advertising libraries.

Children

The app is rated 4+ and is suitable for all ages. Because we collect nothing, we collect nothing from children.

Your rights under GDPR

Under EU and UK data-protection law, you have rights including access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability, and objection. Because we collect no personal data, there is nothing about you on our side to access, correct, or erase. If you want to remove your collection data, delete the app — that removes the on-device copy. To remove the iCloud copy, sign in to iCloud.com and delete the Red Dot Tracker data, or delete the app on a device while signed in to iCloud.

Changes to this policy

If this policy changes materially, the effective date above will change and a summary of the change will be posted here.
