ChipLog ("the app") is a poker session and bankroll tracker for iPhone. This policy explains what the app stores, where it goes, and who else is involved.
Everything you log stays on your device and in your own private iCloud storage. There is no ChipLog account, and the developer operates no server and cannot see your sessions, your results or your bankroll. The only third parties involved are Apple, which provides iCloud and handles purchases, and Google AdMob, which serves the ads in the free version.
The data you enter yourself:
The app does not ask for your name, email address or phone number, and it has no sign-up. It requests no access to your location, contacts, camera, photos, microphone or health data — the only permission it ever asks for is the tracking prompt described under Advertising.
Data is stored on your device. If you are signed into iCloud, it also syncs through your own iCloud account's private database, which is what lets your sessions appear on your other devices. That storage belongs to you and is governed by Apple's privacy policy — the developer of ChipLog has no access to it.
ChipLog sends nothing to any server operated by the developer, because there isn't one.
ChipLog can write your sessions to a CSV file and read one back. Both are driven entirely by you: the export is handed to iOS's share sheet, and the import reads only the single file you pick. Where an exported file then goes — Files, Mail, another app — is your choice, and ChipLog isn't involved once you've made it.
The free version of the app shows banner ads supplied by Google AdMob. To serve and measure those ads, AdMob may collect device-level information such as your device's advertising identifier, IP address, device type and interactions with the ad. This is handled by Google, not by ChipLog — see how Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services.
On first launch the app asks, through Apple's App Tracking Transparency prompt, whether you allow tracking across apps and websites. If you decline — or never answer — the app requests non-personalized ads, which are chosen from the current context rather than from a profile of you. You can change your answer any time in Settings › Privacy & Security › Tracking.
The app also includes Apple's SKAdNetwork identifiers for Google's advertising partners. SKAdNetwork lets an ad network learn that an install happened without learning who installed it; the measurement is performed by Apple and is not tied to your identity.
Buying "Remove Ads" stops the ads, and with them the AdMob requests.
The "Remove Ads" purchase is processed by Apple through the App Store. Your payment details never reach the app — it only learns whether the purchase is active. That answer is kept on your device so the app knows on the next launch; Apple keeps the purchase itself tied to your Apple Account, which is what "Restore Purchases" reads.
The app includes no analytics, crash-reporting or attribution SDK. Nothing you do inside the app is reported to the developer.
ChipLog is a record-keeping tool for adults who play poker and is not directed at children. It does not knowingly collect information from children.
Settings › Data › Reset erases your sessions, and optionally your lists and bankroll entries with them. Deleting the app removes what's stored on the device. To remove the synced copy as well, delete ChipLog's data from your iCloud storage settings. You can export everything to CSV first if you want to keep a copy.
If the app starts collecting or sharing anything differently, this page is updated and the date above changes with it.
