Schengen Stays – Privacy Policy

Effective date: 7th October 2026

Overview

Schengen Stays ("the App") is a travel tracking tool that helps you monitor your Schengen area stays against the 90/180-day rule. Your privacy is important to us.

Data Collection

The App collects no personal data. We do not collect, transmit, or store any information on external servers.

Data Storage

All data you enter (trip dates, names, notes) is stored exclusively on your device using a local SQLite database. This data never leaves your device, unless you choose to sync it to another device using a QR code

Third-Party Services

The App does not use any third-party analytics, advertising, or tracking services.

Camera

The App can use your device's camera solely to scan a QR code when you sync data with another of your devices. Camera images are processed on the device only and are never stored or sent anywhere.

Internet Access

The App makes a single optional network request at startup to check whether a newer version is available on the App Store. No personal data is transmitted in this request.

Children's Privacy

The App does not knowingly collect any data from anyone, including children under 13.

Changes to This Policy

If we make changes to this policy, we will update the effective date above. Continued use of the App after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
