Privacy
In short: the app sends the trip you type to our server, the server answers and keeps nothing, and there is no account, no tracking and no advertising.
What the app sends
To answer a trip, the app sends these to app.haulpilot.us over an encrypted (HTTPS) connection:
- the origin and destination you choose: a place name and its coordinates from our list of US places, never your phone's location;
- the load's width, height, length, overhangs and gross weight, and the departure time you enter;
- on Android, the text of a permit, only if you paste one in to check it against the plan.
When you search for a place, the letters you type are sent so the server can suggest matching places.
What the server keeps
Nothing. The server works out the answer and sends it back. It does not store trips, does not log requests, and does not record your IP address. Our hosting provider, Fly.io, carries the traffic to and from the server.
Pasted permit text is read on our server and is not sent to anyone else.
What stays on your phone
- iPhone: nothing is saved. Closing the app clears the form.
- Android: loads you save, recent answers and permits you have checked are kept in the app's own storage on the phone. They are not backed up and leave the phone only when you send a new trip. Uninstalling the app deletes them.
What the app does not do
- No account, sign-in or password.
- No analytics, crash reporting, advertising or tracking of any kind.
- No access to your location, camera, photos, contacts or microphone.
- Nothing is sold or shared with anyone.
Children
HaulPilot is a tool for commercial truck drivers and carriers, not for children, and it collects no personal information from anyone.
Changes and contact
If what the app sends or keeps ever changes, this page will change first, with a new effective date. Questions: hello@haulpilot.us.
