Effective October 24, 2026
SkyQuant RF collects no personal data. There are no accounts, no analytics, no advertising and no tracking of any kind. The developer receives nothing about you or how you use the app.
Your preferences — a server address, if you entered one, the form values you last used (heights, frequency, power, gains, sensitivity, range and propagation options), and the coverage colour and heat-map settings — are saved on your device using the system preferences store (iOS UserDefaults). They stay on the device, are covered by your device's own backup and encryption, and are removed when you delete the app. The app does not upload them.
SkyQuant RF talks to one server only. By default that is its operator's SkyQuant server, whose address is built into the app, so there is nothing to set up. In Settings you can point the app at a different SkyQuant server instead; it then talks only to that one, run by that server's operator. Nothing is sent until you ask for a result.
When you compute coverage or a link budget, the app sends an HTTPS request to that server carrying only the map coordinates you tapped for the transmitter and receiver, and the link parameters you typed (heights, frequency, transmit power, antenna gains, receiver sensitivity, range and the propagation model with its options). The request carries no personal information and no identifier for you or your device.
The built-in server uses a request only to compute the result you asked for. As with any request to any web server, it transiently sees standard connection metadata, including the IP address the request came from. It is not used to identify users, is not associated with any account or profile (there are none), is not combined with other data to build a profile, and is not sold or shared with third parties.
If you point the app at a different server in Settings, that server sees the same requests and metadata, and its operator may keep ordinary request logs containing the coordinates and parameters above. How those logs are kept is governed by that server operator's own policies, not by this one.
The map and globe are drawn by Apple Maps (MapKit). Apple's handling of map requests is covered by Apple's privacy policy. The app adds no other third-party service.
No data is sold, rented, traded or shared with third parties, for advertising or for anything else. There is no data to sell.
The app collects no personal information from anyone, including children under 13. Because nothing is collected, nothing about a child is stored, used or disclosed.
If this policy changes, the updated version is posted at this URL with a new effective date. Material changes will be reflected here before or at the time they take effect.
Questions about this policy can be raised on the project's issue tracker: github.com/KyleSchaller/Skyquant-RF/issues.
