Privacy Policy — TruckExpense
Last updated: July 2, 2026
Introduction
TruckExpense (“the App”, “we”, “our”) is a mileage tracking and expense management application designed for truck drivers and independent owner-operators. This Privacy Policy explains what data the App collects, how it is used, and your rights regarding that data.
By using TruckExpense, you agree to the practices described in this policy.
Data We Collect
2.1 Location Data
The App collects GPS location data when you use the trip tracking feature. This includes:
Geographic coordinates (latitude and longitude)
Speed
GPS accuracy
Timestamps of recorded points
Location data is used exclusively to calculate trip distance, generate route maps, and display your driving history within the App.
Background location: If you enable the Auto-Start Tracker feature, the App collects location data in the background while you are driving. This requires “Always” location permission on your device. Background location is used solely to record mileage automatically without requiring manual interaction while driving.
2.2 Financial Data
The App stores financial records you manually enter, including income, expenses, categories, and notes. This data is used to generate your financial reports and spending summaries within the App.
2.3 Photos
If you attach receipt images to your records, the App accesses your photo library or camera. Photos are stored locally on your device as part of your transaction records.
2.4 Usage Data
The App does not collect analytics, crash reports, or behavioral data. No usage statistics are transmitted to any server.
How We Use Your Data
All data collected by TruckExpense is used solely to provide the features of the App.
Location / GPS: Track trip mileage, generate route maps, calculate distances.
Financial records: Display income and expense reports, calculate net income, generate statistics.
Photos: Attach receipt images to expense and income records.
We do not use your data for advertising, profiling, or any purpose beyond operating the App’s features.
Data Storage
All data is stored locally on your device only.
TruckExpense does not operate any servers. Your data is never uploaded to the cloud, transmitted over the internet, or stored outside of your iPhone. The App does not require an account or registration.
Your data is stored in the app’s private storage on your device, protected by iOS security and your device passcode or biometrics.
Data Sharing
We do not share your data with anyone.
TruckExpense does not sell, rent, license, or disclose your personal data to third parties. Your location, financial records, and photos are never shared with:
Advertisers
Analytics providers
Data brokers
Any third-party services
The App does not integrate with any third-party SDKs, analytics platforms, or advertising networks.
Data Backup and Export
TruckExpense includes a built-in backup and restore feature. When you create a backup:
A JSON file is generated on your device containing your financial records and trip data.
This file is shared via iOS’s standard sharing interface (AirDrop, Files app, email, etc.).
You control where this file goes. The App does not send it anywhere automatically.
If you choose to store this backup in iCloud Drive or share it via email, that action is governed by Apple’s or your email provider’s privacy policy, not ours.
Data Retention
Your data remains on your device for as long as you use the App. You can delete individual records at any time within the App. Deleting the App removes all associated data from your device.
Children’s Privacy
TruckExpense is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect data from children. The App is intended for use by professional truck drivers and business operators.
Your Rights
Since all data is stored locally on your device, you have full control over it at all times.
Access: View all your data within the App at any time.
Export: Use the built-in backup feature to export your data.
Delete: Delete individual records or uninstall the App to remove all data.
Location Permission: Revoke location access at any time in iOS Settings → Privacy & Security → Location Services → TruckExpense.
Location Permission Details
TruckExpense may request the following location permissions.
“While Using the App” — Used for manual trip tracking when the App is open in the foreground.
“Always” — Used for the Auto-Start Tracker feature, which automatically detects and records driving trips in the background. This permission is optional. If you prefer not to grant “Always” access, you can use manual trip tracking instead, which only requires “While Using” permission.
You can change location permissions at any time in:
iPhone Settings → Privacy & Security → Location Services → TruckExpense
Third-Party Services
TruckExpense uses the following Apple-provided frameworks that are subject to Apple’s own privacy policy.
Apple MapKit — Used to display route maps and calculate driving directions for the Recover Missing Trip feature. Route calculation requests are sent to Apple’s servers.
Apple WidgetKit — Used to display the mileage tracking widget on your home screen. Data is passed locally between the App and the widget.
No other third-party services, frameworks, or SDKs are used.
