PoolDrift ("we", "our", "the app") is a pool chemistry forecasting tool. Your privacy is important to us. This policy explains what data we collect, how we use it, and what choices you have.
All pool configuration, test readings, chemical logs, and forecast data are stored locally on your device. We do not operate user accounts or cloud sync. Your data never leaves your device unless you use one of the third-party integrations described below.
PoolMath — If you provide a PoolMath share code, the app fetches your public share page from poolmathapp.com to import test readings and chemical logs. Only the share code you enter is sent. No credentials are transmitted.
Open-Meteo — The app sends your pool's latitude and longitude to the Open-Meteo API to retrieve weather forecasts. No personal information is included in these requests. Open-Meteo is a free, open-source weather API that does not require an API key.
Nominatim (OpenStreetMap) — During pool setup, the app sends your address search text to the Nominatim geocoding API (nominatim.openstreetmap.org) to look up coordinates. No account or personal information is included in these requests.
Leslie's — If you connect your Leslie's account, the app stores your credentials in the device's secure keychain and uses them to fetch water test results from Leslie's website. Credentials are never stored in plaintext or transmitted to any server other than lesliespool.com.
Retail Links — The Inventory screen may display links to Amazon, InTheSwim, PoolSupplyWorld, and Leslie's for purchasing pool chemicals. Tapping these links opens the respective retailer's website in your browser. Amazon links may include an affiliate tag through which PoolDrift may earn a commission on qualifying purchases at no additional cost to you. PoolDrift does not transmit any personal information to these retailers.
PoolDrift uses Sentry for crash and error reporting to improve app stability. In production builds, Sentry may collect stack traces, error context, and basic device information (OS version, device model). This data is not linked to your identity and is not used for advertising. PoolDrift does not include advertising frameworks or tracking pixels. We do not sell, rent, or share your personal data with third parties.
In-app purchases and subscriptions are processed directly through the Apple App Store or Google Play Store. Payment and billing data is handled entirely by Apple or Google. PoolDrift does not receive or store your credit card numbers or billing details.
Since all data is stored locally, uninstalling the app removes all your data. If push notifications are enabled in a future version, you can delete your server-side data by disabling notifications in settings or by contacting us.
PoolDrift is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
We may update this policy from time to time. Changes will be reflected in the app with an updated effective date. Continued use of the app constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
