Your data stays on your phone.
Kart Pit Wall collects no personal data. There is no account, no tracking, no analytics and no advertising. Your laps and your location are never sent to us.
Who we are
Kart Pit Wall is made by its developer. For anything about privacy, write to support@example.com.
What the app stores, and where
The app keeps the following in its own storage on your phone:
- Your settings: your saved tracks (their name and start/finish line), the short name of your track’s live timing page, the team you picked, and the name of your RaceBox.
- Your saved sessions: lap times, the date, the track, the session name and the team name you picked. The app keeps your latest 200 sessions.
None of this is sent to us or to anyone else. We have no server that could receive it.
Backups made by your phone
Your phone’s own backup is separate from the app, and works differently on the two systems:
- Android: if device backup is switched on in your phone’s settings, Android may include the app’s data in the backup kept in your own Google account, and bring it back when you reinstall the app. That copy is between you and Google. We cannot see it.
- iPhone: the app’s data is left out of iCloud and computer backups. It stays on that iPhone only, so it does not move to a new one.
Deleting your data
- Delete a session in History, or a track in Settings, and it is removed from the phone.
- Deleting the app removes everything it stored on the phone.
- On Android, a copy in your Google backup stays until you remove it or switch the backup off in your phone’s settings.
Your RaceBox
Your RaceBox connects directly to your phone over Bluetooth. Its GPS readings are used on the phone to time your laps and show your delta. The GPS track itself is not saved; only the resulting lap times are.
Live race timing
If you use live timing, the app reads your track’s public live timing page directly from the phone, the same way a web browser would. As with any website visit, that timing service can see your phone’s internet address. The timing data, including other teams’ names, is shown on screen and not stored. The only parts kept are the session name and your chosen team name, saved with a session.
Permissions
- Bluetooth: to find and connect to your RaceBox.
- Location (Android 11 and older only): those Android versions require it before an app may scan for Bluetooth devices. The app does not use your phone’s location.
Crash reports
The app sends us nothing when it fails. If you have chosen in your phone’s settings to share diagnostics with app developers, Apple or Google may pass us crash reports that do not identify you.
If you email us
When you write to us for help, we receive your email address and whatever you send. We use it only to answer you and keep it only as long as the conversation needs. Ask us and we will delete it.
This website
This website uses no cookies, no analytics and no trackers, and loads nothing from other companies. Like any website, the company that hosts it handles your internet address in order to deliver the pages.
Your rights
Because the app sends us nothing, we hold no data about you from using it. For emails you have sent us, you can ask at any time to see them or have them deleted.
Children
The app collects no data from anyone, including children.
Changes
If this ever changes (for example an optional online feature in the future), we will update this page and the app’s privacy details before it happens, and any such feature will be opt-in.
