Privacy Policy

Last updated October 16, 2026

This policy explains how Second Kick Moto LLC ("we," "us") handles information in connection with the SK Maps iOS app and the SK Maps pages of secondkickmoto.com. It describes the app as it works today.

The short version

SK Maps has no accounts. The waypoints, routes, tracks, rides, trips, photos, and settings you create stay on your device and, if iCloud backup is on, in your own iCloud account. We don't receive them.

To show maps and live data, the app connects to our own servers and to third-party and government data providers. Those servers see standard request details, like any website does. We don't use those details to identify you, and we don't sell your information or use it for advertising.

What the app stores on your device

Everything you create or import in the app is stored on your device. That includes waypoints, planned routes, recorded rides, imported tracks, trips, photos you add, layers, vehicles, and their settings.

The app also keeps its own records on your device, such as your preferences, the maps and data you've downloaded, your purchase status, and a record of which version of the Terms of Use you agreed to and when.

Your content leaves your device only through iCloud backup (below), in the requests described under "When the app connects to the internet," or when you choose to export it, share it, or send it to another app.

Location

The app uses your device's location to show where you are, follow you along a route, record rides, create waypoints, and power other location-based features. If you allow it, the app can also use your location in the background, for example to keep recording a ride while the screen is off or another app is in front, or to let a voice command mark a waypoint with the screen off. You choose the app's location access, including background access, in iOS settings.

Your location is processed and stored on your device. We don't receive it. Some features need data about a place, and the request for that data includes the location it's about (see "When the app connects to the internet").

iCloud backup

iCloud backup is on by default, and you can turn it off in the app's Settings. When it's on, the app saves a copy of your library and settings, including your Terms of Use acceptance record, to your own private iCloud storage, under your Apple Account. Downloaded maps and purchases aren't part of it.

That backup is stored by Apple under your account. We can't read it, and it doesn't pass through our servers. You can delete it from the app's Settings, or remove the app's access through your iCloud settings. Your device's own iCloud backup may also include the app's data, under the same Apple Account controls.

When the app connects to the internet

SK Maps works offline. When you're online, the app connects to:

• Our own servers and hosting providers, for downloadable maps and data, app settings and configuration, update notices, and current versions of our legal documents.
• Third-party and government data providers, for map layers and imagery, weather and conditions, elevation, water levels, wildfire information, and similar data. Some of this data is served from commercial cloud providers on the publisher's behalf.

Some of these connections happen when you use a feature. Others happen on their own, for example when the app checks its settings or refreshes data you've downloaded. Which servers and providers the app uses, and what it fetches from them, changes as features and data sources change.

What a server sees. Like any web server, the servers the app connects to receive standard technical details with each request, such as your IP address, the time, what was requested, and the app's name and version. No account, advertising identifier, or tracking identifier is attached.

Locations in requests. When a request is about a place, it includes that location. Depending on the feature, that can be the area of the map you're viewing, a point you've selected, your current location, or points of a waypoint, route, or track you've created or imported (for example, to look up elevation).

How that information is used. We and our providers use request details to deliver what was asked for and to operate, secure, and maintain the service. We don't use them to identify you or build a profile of you. Third-party providers handle requests under their own privacy policies.

Purchases

The subscription and the One-Time Unlock are bought and billed through Apple's App Store. We don't see your payment details. The app checks your purchase status with Apple. Apple's privacy policy covers your Apple Account and purchases.

Apple and other apps

Some features rely on Apple services, such as iCloud, the App Store, Siri, and Shortcuts. Apple handles those under its own privacy policy. When you use Siri or Shortcuts with the app, Apple processes your request, and the app receives the resulting command and carries it out on your device.

When you export or share something, or open a destination in another navigation app, the app or person you send it to receives what you sent and handles it under its own terms and privacy policy.

What we receive

We receive information only in these cases:

• When you contact us. If you email us, we receive your email address and whatever you include. The support email the app prepares includes the app version and your device type and iOS version, which you can see and edit before sending. We use this to respond to you and to support the app.
• Request details, as described above.
• From Apple. Apple provides us aggregate App Store statistics, such as downloads, sales, and country, that don't identify you. If you've chosen in iOS settings to share analytics with app developers, Apple may also provide us crash reports and aggregate app statistics. That choice is yours to change in iOS settings.

The app has no sign-up, email list, or advertising, and today it includes no third-party analytics or tracking SDK.

Sharing

We don't sell your personal information, and we don't share it for advertising. We may share information with service providers who help us run the service, when the law requires it, to protect our rights, our riders, or the safety of others, or as part of a sale or reorganization of our business.

Retention

We keep support email as long as needed to help you and for our records. Our hosting and service providers keep request records under their own practices. We may keep information longer where the law requires it or to protect the security of our service and our riders.

Your choices

• You can turn off iCloud backup, and delete its copy, from the app's Settings.
• You can turn off or change the app's location access in iOS settings. Features that need your location won't work without it.
• You can export your content, and you can delete it in the app. Deleting the app removes what it stored on your device; it doesn't delete your iCloud backup copy.
• Because we don't hold the content you create in the app, there's nothing of yours on our side to access or delete. For anything you've emailed us, contact us below.

Security

Your content is protected by your device's and Apple's security. We take reasonable steps to protect the information we handle, but no method of storage or transmission is completely secure.

Children

SK Maps isn't directed to children under 13, and children under 13 may not use it (see the Terms of Use). We don't knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has sent us personal information, contact us so we can delete it.

This website

The SK Maps pages on secondkickmoto.com don't use advertising or tracking cookies and don't build profiles of visitors. We count visits with cookieless, aggregate analytics from our hosting provider. Like any website, the site is delivered through hosting and security providers, which receive standard request details, such as your IP address, the page requested, and your browser, and use them to deliver and protect the site. The rest of secondkickmoto.com is covered by its own privacy policy.

Changes

We may update this policy as the app, our providers, or the law change. The date at the top shows when it last changed. The current version is available on this page and in the app. We may ask you to accept an updated policy before you keep using the app.
