Privacy Policy for Pendlerlogg
Last updated: October 16, 2026
Introduction
This Privacy Policy describes how Pendlerlogg (“we”, “our”, or “the app”) handles your information. Pendlerlogg is developed by Maxime Van den Kerkhof.
Our Privacy Commitment
Pendlerlogg does not collect any data. The app makes no network connections. It has no accounts, no servers, no analytics, no advertising and no third-party code. Everything you enter stays on your device.
Information Stored on Your Device
The app stores the following on your device only:
- Stays: dates, place, accommodation type, cost, whether you paid by bank, and notes
- Home trips: dates, direction, and notes
- Receipts: the scans, images and PDFs you add
- Settings: your commute start date, the names of your home and work locations, the travel distance you enter, and the qualifying criteria you have ticked off
This data is stored in the app’s own storage on your device. It is not synced to iCloud or any other service. Like all app data, it may be included in your device backups (iCloud Backup or a backup to your computer), which are handled by Apple under Apple’s privacy policy.
Device Features the App Uses
Camera
- Purpose: To scan paper receipts using Apple’s document scanner
- Storage: Scanned receipts are saved on your device and attached to the stay you choose
Files and the Share Extension
- Purpose: To add a PDF or image as a receipt, either by picking a file or by sharing it to Pendlerlogg from another app (for example, a hotel confirmation in Mail)
- Storage: The file is copied into the app’s storage on your device
Exporting Your Data
You can export a year’s log as a PDF or CSV file, together with a zip file of your receipts. The export is created on your device and only leaves it when you choose where to send or save it in the share sheet. What happens to it after that is governed by the app or service you choose.
Data Sharing
We do not sell, trade, or transfer your information to anyone. We never receive it in the first place.
Deleting Your Data
You can delete individual stays, home trips and receipts in the app. Deleting the app removes all of its data from your device.
Children’s Privacy
Pendlerlogg is designed for adults who commute for work and does not knowingly collect information from children. The app collects no information from anyone.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected on this page with an updated date.
