The short version

Flight Club stores all data locally on your device. Nothing is sent to our servers or any third party. We have no servers. We collect no analytics, run no ads, and have no tracking of any kind.

Where data is stored

All flight data is stored in a local database on your device. Data never leaves your device through the app. There is no cloud sync, no remote backup, and no server-side component.

If you delete the app, all flight data is permanently removed.

You can deny location access at any time through your device's Settings. The app will not be able to record flight paths without it.

Motion & sensor data

Flight Club uses your device's accelerometer, gyroscope, and magnetometer to record aircraft attitude (pitch and roll) and acceleration during flight. This sensor data is stored locally and never shared.

Third-party services

Flight Club uses no third-party services. There are no analytics SDKs, advertising frameworks, crash reporters, or external APIs.

Data sharing

We do not share, sell, or transfer any of your data to third parties. Since all data stays on your device and we have no access to it, sharing is not possible.

Children's privacy

Flight Club does not knowingly collect information from children under 13. The app does not require an account or collect any personal information beyond what the user manually enters for their own flight records.
