Privacy Policy

Overview

PackBrief is a privacy-first travel packing app. It helps you create packing lists, prepare for trips, and manage travel-related items while keeping your personal trip information under your control.

PackBrief does not operate a user account system, advertising network, analytics service, or developer-run backend that collects your personal app data.

Information PackBrief Does Not Collect

PackBrief does not collect, sell, rent, or share your personal information with advertisers or data brokers.

• No PackBrief account, signup, or login is required.
• No developer-operated analytics, tracking, or advertising identifiers are collected.
• No contacts, precise device location, camera data, or microphone data are collected by PackBrief.
• No trips, packing lists, notes, documents, or preferences are made accessible to the developer.

Information Stored on Device and iCloud

Information you create in PackBrief, such as trips, packing lists, pre-trip tasks, expenses, receipts, documents, shopping items, gear, notes, and app preferences, is stored on your device. If iCloud is enabled, this information may sync through your private iCloud account using Apple services.

Private iCloud sync is controlled by your Apple Account and device settings. PackBrief does not run its own server to view, process, or store your trip content.

Weather

PackBrief can use weather forecasts to improve packing recommendations. When you choose a destination, destination coordinates or related destination information may be sent to Apple WeatherKit so Apple can return forecast data for that place.

PackBrief does not request or collect your device's precise GPS location for this purpose.

Purchases

PackBrief Premium subscriptions are processed by Apple through the App Store and StoreKit. Apple handles payment information, billing, subscription management, refunds, and purchase history under Apple's own policies.

PackBrief reads subscription entitlement status from StoreKit so the app can unlock Premium features. The app does not receive your full payment card details.

Sharing and Exports

PackBrief may let you export or share packing lists and trip materials as files such as PDF, CSV, or PackBrief documents. These exports are created only when you choose to create or share them.

After you export or share a file, your use of Messages, Mail, Files, AirDrop, cloud storage, or another destination is governed by the privacy practices of that service.

Data Deletion

You can delete PackBrief trips and app data from within the app. You can also remove app data stored in iCloud or on your devices through Apple device and iCloud settings.

Deleting app data does not automatically cancel a subscription. You can manage or cancel subscriptions in your Apple Account subscription settings.

Children's Privacy

PackBrief is not directed to children, and PackBrief does not knowingly collect personal information from children. Because PackBrief does not operate accounts, analytics, advertising, or a developer-run backend, it is not designed to collect personal information from any user.

Changes to This Policy

This policy may be updated when PackBrief's features, privacy practices, or legal requirements change. The effective date at the top of this page shows when this policy was last updated.
