YOUR PRIVACY

Privacy Policy

Effective 10 August 2026

Mapra turns the location information already attached to your photos into a private travel journal. We designed it to do as much work as possible on your iPhone.

What Mapra reads

With your permission, Mapra reads photos you allow it to access, including their date and saved location. Mapra uses that information to identify countries, places, trips, dates, distances, and memories.

What stays on your device

Photo analysis happens on your iPhone. Mapra does not upload your photo library or photo pixels to a Mapra server, and it does not use your photos for advertising, tracking, or training artificial intelligence models.

Information you create

Your home city, visited places, wish list, planned trips, bookings, notes, and app preferences are saved locally. If iCloud is available, small records such as trips and saved places may sync through your private Apple iCloud account so they can survive reinstalling the app or moving to another device. Mapra does not operate a server that can read this iCloud data.

Apple services and maps

Mapra uses Apple Photos, Maps, geocoding, iCloud, notifications, StoreKit, and widgets. Apple may receive map searches, coordinates, purchase information, or other data needed to provide those services, subject to Apple’s own privacy policies.

Subscriptions

Mapra uses RevenueCat to load subscription options, complete and restore purchases, confirm access, and measure whether its purchase screen was presented. RevenueCat may receive an anonymous app user identifier, purchase history, selected product, subscription and entitlement status, paywall events, and device or app diagnostic information. Mapra uses this information for app functionality and subscription analytics—not advertising or cross-app tracking.

Destination information

When you explore or plan a destination, Mapra may send a place name—not your photos—to Wikipedia, Wikimedia Commons, and Wikidata to request public descriptions, licensed images, facts, and coordinates. For current trip weather, Mapra may send the destination coordinates to Open-Meteo. These services receive normal network information such as your IP address.

Local caches and retention

Mapra keeps scan results, protected photo thumbnails, destination responses, and widget images on your device so the app can load quickly and work with limited connectivity. These local files are replaced as the app refreshes them and are removed when you delete Mapra. Subscription records are retained by Apple and RevenueCat according to their policies and legal obligations. iCloud data may remain in your private iCloud account until you remove it through Apple’s iCloud controls.

Tracking and advertising

Mapra does not include third-party advertising or cross-app tracking. Mapra does not sell your personal information.

Your controls

You can limit or revoke photo access, change notification permission, manage your subscription, or disable iCloud for Mapra in Apple’s settings. You can remove saved trips, places, bookings, and notes in the app. Deleting Mapra removes its local app data; information retained by Apple, RevenueCat, or iCloud remains subject to their controls and retention policies.

Children

Mapra is not directed to children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information, contact us so we can help.

Changes

We may update this policy as Mapra changes. We will update the effective date and provide any notice required by law.
