Privacy policy

Walkport (“we”) is an iPhone app. This policy explains what the app does with information about you.

With your permission, Walkport reads your daily walking, running and wheelchair distance from Apple Health to move you along your route. It does not read any other Health data and never writes to Apple Health.

This data is processed and stored only on your device. It is never sent to us, never used for advertising, and never sold. The only way it leaves your device is inside a backup file that you export yourself (see Backups). You can turn off access at any time in the Health app: your profile › Apps › Walkport.

If you add a photo to a postcard, you choose it with the iPhone photo picker. Walkport gets only that one photo, never your whole library, and keeps a copy on your device.

Notifications about new cities and countries are created on your iPhone. Nothing is sent to a server to deliver them.

To move to another iPhone, you can save a backup file in the app (More › Backup). It contains your journeys, stamps, postcards and photos, your passport name and photo, your settings, and your daily walking distance since your first journey, so the new iPhone can carry on where you left off. Purchases aren't in it; Restore purchases brings Premium back.

Walkport creates the file on your device and never uploads it. You decide where it goes, for example AirDrop, email, Messages or Files. Once you send or save it, it is handled by the service you chose, under that service's privacy policy. The file is not encrypted, so keep it somewhere you trust and delete it when you no longer need it. Restoring a backup reads the file on your new iPhone; nothing is sent to us.

Walkport Premium is sold through the App Store. Apple handles payment; we never see your card or Apple ID details. We use RevenueCat to check which purchases you have. RevenueCat receives an anonymous identifier created by the app, your purchase and subscription history, and basic technical details such as app and iOS version. It never receives your health data. See RevenueCat's privacy policy and Apple's privacy policy.

Walkport has no account, no analytics, no advertising and no tracking across apps or websites. We don't sell or share personal information.

Your journeys, postcards, photos and settings are stored in the app on your device. Deleting Walkport removes them. Your original data in Apple Health is not affected, and neither are backup files you've saved elsewhere: delete those yourself if you no longer need them.

Walkport is not directed at children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect personal information from them.

If this policy changes, we'll update it here and change the effective date above.
