Astro Tracker Privacy Policy

Last updated: April 5, 2026

Overview

Astro Tracker is designed with your privacy in mind. We collect minimal data and never sell your personal information.

Data We Collect

Location Data
If you grant permission, we access your approximate location solely to calculate when the International Space Station and Tiangong Space Station will be visible from your area. Your location is processed on-device and is never transmitted to our servers or any third party.

Notification Preferences
If you enable notifications, your device token is stored locally to deliver launch alerts. We do not operate a push notification server — all notifications are scheduled locally on your device.

Calendar Access
If you choose to add launch events to your calendar, we write directly to your device's calendar. We do not read or store any of your existing calendar data.

Data We Do Not Collect

These services may log standard HTTP request data (IP address, user agent) per their own privacy policies. Astro Tracker does not send any personal information to these services.

Data Storage

All app data is stored locally on your device using standard iOS storage mechanisms. Cached data is stored in your device's temporary cache directory and may be cleared by the system at any time.

Children's Privacy

Astro Tracker does not knowingly collect information from children under 13. The app contains no user accounts, in-app purchases, or advertising.

Changes

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. The latest version will always be available within the app and at the URL below.
