PRIVACY POLICY · SEPTEMBER 11, 2026
Your drive stays on your device.
This policy describes the Plaid Dash iPhone and iPad app, developed by Peng Yang.
Location
The app uses foreground location while Drive Mode is active to calculate GPS speed. When location permission has already been granted, foreground Cockpit may request a single approximate elevation fix, at most once per minute. Only an elevation value and its freshness are kept temporarily; coordinates are not retained. It does not save location history or send location to the developer or a server. Theme previews use clearly identified simulated speed and do not start GPS.
Preferences
Theme, speed units, language, appearance, brightness, mirror, and motion preferences are stored locally. You can change them in Settings. There is no app account to create or delete.
No advertising or tracking
The app includes no advertising, analytics SDK, tracking, or app-operated data upload. It does not sell personal data. Apple may process diagnostics or TestFlight feedback according to your Apple settings and Apple’s own privacy terms.
Purchases
Optional theme purchases are processed by Apple. The app uses Apple-verified transactions on your device to unlock content and restore purchases. The developer does not receive your payment card details. No purchase events are uploaded to a developer-operated analytics service.
Your choices
You can change location permission in your device’s Settings. Without permission, you can still preview themes, but live GPS speed is unavailable. Leaving Drive Mode stops continuous speed updates. Cockpit elevation requests stop when you leave Cockpit or enter a preview. Backgrounding the app stops all of its location updates.
Support and this website
If you email support, your email address and the information you choose to send are used to respond to your request. Do not include location history or other sensitive information. This website’s hosting provider may process standard request information needed to serve and protect the site; the app itself does not contact this website automatically.
Changes
We will update this page if the app’s data practices change. The date above identifies the latest revision.
