Alpha Charlie does not collect, transmit, or store any personal data on external servers. Everything stays on your iPhone.
Alpha Charlie is a match analytics app for USPSA and IDPA competitive shooters. We take privacy seriously. This policy explains what data the app uses and how it is handled.
Alpha Charlie does not collect any personal information. The app does not require an account, does not connect to any server, and does not transmit any data over the internet.
The only data the app stores is:
All of this data is stored exclusively in local device storage (UserDefaults) and never leaves your device.
If you purchase a subscription, all payment processing is handled entirely by Apple. Alpha Charlie never sees, receives, or stores your payment information. Purchase receipts are verified directly with Apple's StoreKit framework on your device.
If you choose to enable iCloud Sync in Settings, your match data is stored in your personal iCloud account using Apple's CloudKit service. This data is private to your Apple ID and is not accessible to us. iCloud Sync is opt-in and disabled by default — the app functions fully without it.
We do not share any data with third parties. There are no analytics SDKs, advertising frameworks, or tracking libraries in Alpha Charlie.
The app uses Google Fonts (Barlow) loaded from Google's CDN for typography within the dashboard interface. This is a standard web font request with no personal data attached.
If iCloud Sync is enabled, your data is stored in Apple's iCloud infrastructure under your personal Apple ID. Apple is not a third party we share data with — your iCloud account is your own private storage that we have no access to. Apple's privacy policy governs their handling of iCloud data.
Alpha Charlie does not request access to your camera, microphone, contacts, or location.
The app requests access to your Photo Library only when you choose to save a match result share card to your device. This permission is requested at the moment you tap save and is never used for any other purpose.
The app uses an in-app browser to navigate to match results websites. No browsing history is stored by the app.
You have full control over your data at all times. You can delete all stored match data at any time using Settings → Clear All Data within the app. Uninstalling the app removes all locally stored data permanently.
