What AviTrail Collects
AviTrail uses the photos and short bird sound recordings you choose to identify bird species, create collection cards and sync observations to your account. Photos are made privacy-safe before identification to reduce hidden location and device details. Audio recordings are used for bird sound identification and are not used for advertising or tracking.
If you enable location, AviTrail stores observation coordinates in your private collection. Public local league map sharing is optional and uses approximate cells or neighborhood labels, not exact latitude and longitude.
Account And Purchases
Firebase Auth is used for email/password accounts. Firestore stores user-scoped observations, bird cards and subscription entitlement state. RevenueCat is used to process subscription status from the App Store.
Photo And Audio Privacy
Selected photos and recorded bird sounds stay under your control. Source photo cloud storage is disabled by default in the current release path. Bird sound clips are sent only for species identification and are not published to public league feeds. If cloud photo storage is enabled later, it will use private user-scoped Firebase Storage paths.
Data Sharing
AviTrail does not sell personal data. Data is shared with Firebase, RevenueCat and the bird identification provider only to operate account sync, purchases and species identification.
Delete Or Export
