Privacy Policy

Last updated: May 2026

The short version

Skipper does not have a backend. Your boats, engines, service records, photos, and documents live on your device. If you opt into iCloud sync, your data is encrypted and synced through your own iCloud — we can't see it, and no third party can either.

What we collect

• Nothing on our servers. Skipper has no account system, no email signup, no telemetry that leaves your phone.
• Apple's purchase events. If you subscribe to Skipper Pro, Apple processes the purchase. We see only whether you are entitled to Pro features, not your payment details.
• Crash reports. If you opt into Apple's analytics (Settings → Privacy & Security → Analytics & Improvements), iOS may send Apple-mediated crash reports about Skipper. We use these to fix bugs.

What we don't do

• We don't sell your data. We have no data to sell.
• We don't track you across apps.
• We don't share your service history with insurers, brokers, surveyors, or anyone else — unless you choose to share the PDF yourself.

Permissions

• Photos. Only when you attach a photo to a service record.
• Notifications. Only if you opt in to maintenance reminders.
• Files. Only when you attach a manual or survey PDF.
