Privacy Policy

Waypoint Log (“the app”, “we”) is an electronic pilot logbook operated by Yufeng Li. This policy explains what information the app collects, how it is used, and the choices you have. Questions or requests: derekli19951103@gmail.com.

Information we collect

• Account details: your name and email address. Your password is stored only as a one-way hash; we cannot read it.
• Logbook content you enter: flights and simulator sessions (dates, times, aerodromes, aircraft, flight time, landings, approaches, remarks), your aircraft list, and the names of other crew members you choose to record.
• Settings: the name shown on your logbook, display preferences, and any expiry dates you add (for example your medical certificate or instrument rating expiry).
• Edit history: earlier versions of logbook lines you edit or delete, kept so your logbook stays auditable.
• Google account details, if you sign in with Google or connect Google Calendar: your Google account identifier, name, email address, profile picture address, and the access tokens Google issues so the app can read your calendar.
• Technical information: a session cookie that keeps you signed in, and the IP address and browser type associated with your sessions. IP addresses are also used briefly to limit repeated sign-in attempts.

The app does not use advertising, analytics or third-party tracking, and it does not sell or rent personal information.

Google Calendar

Connecting Google Calendar is optional and gives the app read-only access to your calendars. When you choose a calendar and a date range, the app reads that calendar’s events (title, description, location and times) to find flights in your roster, and shows you what it found. Only the events you choose to import are saved, and only as draft logbook lines containing the date, times, aerodromes, flight number and, for simulator sessions, the event title. Other event content is not stored.

Waypoint Log’s use and transfer of information received from Google APIs to any other app will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. Google user data is used only to provide the import feature you request. It is not used for advertising, not sold, not used to train artificial-intelligence models, and not read by people except with your permission, for security, or where the law requires it.

You can disconnect the app from your Google account at any time at myaccount.google.com/permissions. Lines already imported stay in your logbook until you delete them.

How we use information

• To run your logbook: storing entries, calculating flight time, night time, totals and recency, and showing your pages.
• To import roster events you ask for.
• To keep your account secure, prevent abuse and fix problems.
• To contact you about your account or important changes to the app.

Service providers and storage

The app relies on these providers, which process data on our behalf:

• Vercel: hosts the app and may keep short-lived request logs.
• Neon: stores the database.
• Google: provides sign-in and calendar access, only if you use them.

These providers store data in the United States, so your information may be processed outside Canada and be subject to the laws of those countries. Connections to the app are encrypted in transit.

Retention

Your logbook and account data are kept while your account exists, because a logbook is a long-term record. When you ask us to delete your account, your data is removed from the database within 30 days. Provider backups and logs expire on their own schedules.

Your choices and rights

• Access and correction: you can view and edit your logbook, aircraft and settings in the app at any time.
• Deletion: you can delete individual lines in the app, or ask us to delete your account and all its data by writing to derekli19951103@gmail.com.
• Google access: revoke it at any time from your Google account, as described above.
• Questions and complaints: contact derekli19951103@gmail.com. In Canada you may also contact the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada.

Children

The app is not intended for anyone under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their information.

Changes to this policy

If this policy changes, the new version will be posted here with a new effective date. Significant changes will be announced in the app or by email.
