HPDash Racer — Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 2026

HPDash, LLC (“HPDash,” “we,” “us,” and “our”) respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use and share it, and the choices you have, when you use the HPDash Racer mobile application (the “App”) on iOS or Android.

The short version: your logbook lives on your phone. The App contains no advertising and no third-party analytics, requires no account, and does not upload your runs anywhere. The only data that leaves your device is your approximate coordinates, sent to the U.S. National Weather Service to fetch local weather.

1. Information We Collect

Information you provide. The App does not require an account. The racing data you enter — cars, tracks, runs, timeslip numbers, setup notes — is stored locally on your device only. We cannot see it. If you purchase the optional Racer subscription, the transaction is processed by the Apple App Store or Google Play (depending on your device); we receive your subscription status (whether it is active), not your payment-card details or identity.

Information collected automatically.

  • Precise location. With your permission, the App uses your device’s GPS/network location to fetch local weather, to auto-select your saved track, and (with GPS altitude) to calibrate the barometer. Your coordinates (truncated to about four decimal places) are sent to the U.S. National Weather Service to retrieve local weather observations and forecasts. We do not store or transmit your location anywhere else.
  • Barometric pressure. If your device has a pressure sensor, the App reads it on your device to measure local air conditions. This reading is processed on your device and is not transmitted.
  • Timeslip images (optional). If you select a timeslip screenshot (for example, a Dragy result) from your photos, the App reads the numbers from the image entirely on your device to pre-fill a run entry. The image is not uploaded, stored by us, or shared.

What we do NOT collect: no advertising identifiers (the App contains no ads or advertising SDKs), no analytics or tracking SDKs, no contacts, no photo library, no browsing data. We do not track you across apps or websites, and we do not build profiles.

2. How We Use Information

  • To measure and display air conditions (density altitude, air density, and related readings);
  • To retrieve local weather and forecasts for your location;
  • To compute run predictions from the data you log — entirely on your device;
  • To provide and validate the optional subscription through the Apple App Store or Google Play; and
  • To comply with legal obligations.

3. How We Share Information

We share information only as described here:

  • U.S. National Weather Service (NWS/NOAA) — your approximate coordinates are sent to api.weather.gov to return local weather.
  • Apple or Google — the optional subscription is processed by the Apple App Store (on iOS) or Google Play (on Android). See Apple’s Privacy Policy at apple.com/legal/privacy and Google’s at policies.google.com/privacy.
  • Legal — when required by law or to protect our rights, our users, or the public.

We do not sell your personal information. We do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising.

4. Your Data, Your Control

  • Export. You can export your complete logbook to a CSV file at any time from inside the App.
  • Delete. Uninstalling the App deletes the App’s data from your device. You can also clear the App’s data in your device settings at any time. Because we hold no copy of your logbook, there is nothing further for us to delete.
  • Location permission. You may decline or revoke location permission in your device settings; the App remains usable with manually entered weather.
  • Subscription. Manage or cancel anytime in your Apple ID subscription settings (iOS) or Google Play › Payments & subscriptions (Android). If your subscription lapses, your logbook remains readable and exportable.

5. Data Retention

Your racing data is retained on your device until you delete it. Weather requests are not logged by us. Subscription records are retained by Apple or Google under their respective policies.

6. Children

The App is a motorsports tool intended for adults and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

7. Security

Your data stays on your device, protected by your device’s own security. Network requests to the National Weather Service use HTTPS.

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by the “Last updated” date above and, where appropriate, an in-app notice. Continued use after changes take effect constitutes acceptance.
