Privacy Policy for Skypane

Last updated: 08/18/2026

Skypane ("the app") is an offline flight-tracking and augmented-reality window-view app for Android. This policy explains, plainly, what the app does and does not do with your data.

The short version

Skypane does not collect, store, transmit, or share any personal data with anyone, including the developer. The app requests no internet permission at all, so it is not technically capable of sending information anywhere, even if it were designed to.

What information the app uses, and where it stays

• Location (GPS): used to show your position on the map, calculate speed/heading/distance, and power the AR view. This data is processed entirely on your device and is never transmitted, logged remotely, or shared. It is optionally cached on-device (via your browser engine's local storage) so an in-progress trip can be resumed if you close and reopen the app — that cached data never leaves your phone.
• Camera: used only for the live AR view, to show the camera feed with landmark labels overlaid. No photos or video are ever saved, recorded, or transmitted — the feed is used live and only live.
• Motion/orientation sensors: used for the compass and G-meter/turbulence log features, and to orient the AR view. Processed entirely on-device.
• Files you choose to export: the GPX track export and Flight Postcard image are saved to your device's own Downloads folder (or shared via your phone's native share sheet, if you choose that option). Nothing is uploaded to the developer or any third party.

Optional support link

Settings includes an optional "Buy the developer a coffee" button. Tapping it opens an external page (a third-party payment/tip page) in your phone's own browser — Skypane itself does not process, see, or store anything about that transaction. That external site has its own privacy policy, which governs whatever information you choose to share with it.

Third-party services

Beyond the optional support link above (which you have to choose to tap), Skypane uses no third-party services. There are no analytics SDKs, no advertising networks, no crash-reporting services, and no external servers of any kind otherwise. All maps, airport data, and landmark data are bundled inside the app itself.

Data sharing

Skypane shares no data with anyone, because it collects none in the first place beyond what's described above, all of which stays on your device.

Children's privacy

Skypane does not knowingly collect any information from anyone, including children, for the reasons above.
