Privacy Policy
Effective Date: July 21, 2026
GasTab is an iPhone app that records driving trips.
App Store data available to GasTab
Apple may provide GasTab with anonymous App Store analytics—for example downloads, updates, crashes, and aggregate usage—under Apple’s App Store policies. That data is controlled by Apple. GasTab does not receive your trip routes, maps, or driving scores from the App Store.
1. What your iPhone collects when you download GasTab and take a trip
Your iPhone collects the following data when you download GasTab and take a trip:
- Location while a trip is running—including background location after you tap Start on Live until you tap Stop or the trip ends—to build the route and start/end places
- OBD2 BLE vehicle readings used to calculate distance, speed, MPG, fuel use and cost, RPM, hard acceleration/braking counts, and your GasTab score
- Trip details derived from that data (times, duration, maps, scores, and related stats)
- Settings and labels you enter (driver/vehicle names, gas price, region/ZIP, access token) and notes you add to trips
GasTab does not have access to this data unless you choose to upload trips.
2. What additional data we collect if you turn on Upload trips
If you enable Upload trips in GasTab Settings (Live → gear), the trip details calculated on your iPhone are also sent to and stored on the GasTab server, including:
- Driver/vehicle names
- Trip times, duration, distance, speed, MPG, fuel use/cost, RPM, and GasTab score
- Hard acceleration and hard braking counts
- GPS route points and start/end locations and addresses
- Trip notes, relevant settings (gas price, region/ZIP, access token), and upload/sync status
Access to server data requires your GasTab access token or login. You can also use server restore features when upload/sync is in play.
3. What you get if you choose uploads
With Upload trips on, you can:
- View your trips, maps, and stats on the GasTab web dashboard
- Keep a server copy for history across devices/sessions
- Sync and restore trip data from the GasTab server
- Gain access to a tracker for trip reimbursement
Upload is optional.
Sharing
We do not sell your personal information. Apple collects crash logs and diagnostics under Apple’s policies for App Store apps.
Storage, security & deletion
Trips are stored on your device; uploaded trips are also stored on our server. Protect your device and GasTab credentials—no system is perfectly secure.
You can delete your data without emailing us:
- On the web dashboard: delete individual trips or all uploaded trips from the server. That clears the web copy only—trips stay on your iPhone. After Delete all, you can restore those web trips for 3 days from Summary; after that they are permanently removed from the server.
- On your iPhone: swipe to delete individual trips in the app (that also removes them from the server if they were uploaded). To clear all GasTab data on the phone, delete the GasTab app.
If something does not delete as expected, email scott@gastab.app and we will take care of it.
Children
GasTab is not for children under 13.
Changes
We may update this policy. The effective date above will change when we do.
