Privacy Policy
Last updated 5 September 2026
PackIt does not collect your data. This policy is short because there is very little to describe.
What PackIt stores, and where
Everything you enter — your gear, photographs, storage locations, trips, menus and recipes — is stored on your device.
If you leave iCloud sync switched on, that information is also mirrored to your own private iCloud database, using Apple's CloudKit. That is your personal iCloud storage. I can't read it, and neither can any other PackIt user. It exists so your catalog is backed up and available on your other devices signed in to the same Apple Account.
You can turn iCloud sync off at any time in Settings, and PackIt will keep everything on the device only.
What PackIt does not do
- There is no account and no sign-in.
- There are no analytics, no crash reporting and no tracking of any kind.
- There is no advertising, and no advertising identifier is requested.
- No third-party services, SDKs or servers are involved.
- No data is ever sent to me. There is no server that could receive it.
Photographs and the camera
If you attach a photograph to a piece of gear, PackIt uses the camera or your photo library only for the image you choose. The image is stored with that item, on your device and in your own iCloud, and is used for nothing else.
Exporting your data
PackIt can export your entire catalog as a plain, readable file. Where that file goes afterwards — AirDrop, Files, email — is entirely your choice, and PackIt plays no part in it.
Deleting your data
Deleting the app removes everything stored on the device. To remove what is held in your iCloud, open Settings → Apple Account → iCloud → Manage Account Storage on your device and delete PackIt's data.
Children
PackIt is not directed at children and collects nothing from anyone.
Changes
If this policy ever changes, the updated version will be posted at this address with a new date at the top.
