Privacy Policy

Deck Rest does not collect, store on a server, share or sell any personal information.

Last updated: 9 November 2026.

What the app stores

Everything you enter, such as flight time, takeoff time, crew names, positions and settings, is saved only on your own iPhone so the app can remember it next time. It never reaches the developer. If you use Saved settings, a copy of your presets (crew names, positions and settings, not flight plans) is also stored in your own iCloud account by Apple, so it can come back on a new install or a new phone. Deleting the app removes the data on the device.

Network and tracking

Deck Rest makes no network connections of its own; the optional iCloud copy is handled by iOS. It has no accounts, no advertising, no analytics and no third-party code that tracks you.

Location

If you tap AUTO TAKEOFF, or calculate without a takeoff time, Deck Rest asks iOS for permission to use your location. It uses the GPS only to see when your ground speed passes 100 knots and then stops. It keeps working with the screen off while it waits (iOS shows its location indicator). No location data used by Deck Rest leaves your phone: it is not sent to the developer or anyone else, and only the takeoff time is kept. You can refuse or withdraw permission in iOS Settings, and everything else still works.

Photos

If you choose Save JPG to Photos, the app asks iOS for permission to add a picture of your rest plan to your photo library. It can only add; it cannot see or read your other photos. You can refuse, and everything else still works.

Sharing

When you share a plan as a PDF or a picture, it goes where you send it, through the standard iOS share sheet. The app does not see or control where.

Children

Deck Rest is a tool for flight crew and is not directed at children. It collects no information from anyone.

Changes

If this policy ever changes, the new version will be posted on this page with a new date.
