TrophyView Privacy Policy
Last updated: October 2, 2026
This policy explains how TrophyView handles information when you use its app and related account and support services. For privacy questions or requests, email [email protected].
Information we collect
- Account information: email address, display name, account identifier, and authentication information needed to create and secure your account.
- Ranch and tracking information: memberships, roles, invitations, ranch details, bucks, private bucks, photos, notes, sightings, harvest logs, scores, pasture information, polls, votes, and activity records you create or use.
- Subscription information: RevenueCat user ID, purchase and transaction identifiers, product and subscription status, subscription dates, and the ranch receiving premium benefits.
- Usage and diagnostic information: screen views, app interactions, event times, account and ranch identifiers used in events, app and device information, installation identifiers, crash reports, error logs, and performance measurements.
- Support and moderation information: messages, reported content, account and ranch identifiers, device details, app version, and attachments you provide when requesting help or reporting concerns.
Analytics, crash reporting, and performance monitoring
We use Google Analytics for Firebase to understand app usage, Firebase Crashlytics to investigate errors, and Firebase Performance Monitoring to measure reliability and loading performance. Usage events can include screen and feature activity and ranch or buck identifiers. TrophyView sets your account identifier in Analytics and Crashlytics; this information is not necessarily anonymous.
These services may process device and installation identifiers, device model, operating system, app version, network information, IP addresses, and approximate location derived from network information. We do not use these services to sell your data or target advertising.
Location and photos
TrophyView does not use continuous GPS tracking. Uploaded photo GPS metadata is stripped during photo processing. Technical service providers may still process IP addresses and approximate geographic information for analytics, performance, or security. Information you enter in ranch records or visible in your photos may reveal locations or other personal information.
How we use information
- Authenticate users and provide ranch collaboration and buck-tracking features.
- Store and display your records to people authorized to access them.
- Verify subscriptions and deliver premium features to the subscribed ranch.
- Investigate errors, improve performance, and understand feature usage.
- Respond to support and privacy requests, review content reports, prevent abuse, and meet legal obligations.
Who can access information
Authorized ranch members can access content according to their ranch roles and the app’s sharing settings. Authorized TrophyView staff may access information needed to respond to support requests, investigate technical problems, review reported content, enforce the Terms, or respond to legal obligations.
We use service providers to operate TrophyView:
- Google Firebase and Google Cloud: authentication, database and file storage, backend processing, app security, notifications, analytics, diagnostics, and performance monitoring. See Firebase privacy and security information.
- RevenueCat: subscription verification, entitlement status, and purchase management. See RevenueCat’s Privacy Policy.
- Apple App Store and Google Play: purchase processing and subscription billing. TrophyView does not receive your payment card numbers or bank account details.
These providers process information under applicable service and data-protection terms. We require service providers acting on our behalf to protect information consistently with this policy. We do not sell your personal information or provide it to advertisers. We may disclose information when required by law or necessary to address security, fraud, or abuse.
Account and data deletion
Use Account Settings → Delete Account to complete deletion in the app. The flow includes a password check, a ranch-by-ranch preview, successor selection where required, a photo choice, and confirmation. You can also request deletion without the app at our account deletion page.
Personal data that is deleted
- Your login account, profile, and public profile.
- Your private bucks and all photos belonging to those private bucks.
- Your ranch memberships and personal vote records.
- Invitations sent to or from your account email address.
Ranch records that remain
Bucks, sightings, harvest logs, scoring sheets, pastures, poll totals, and activity logs remain with ranches that continue to exist. Your account ID is cleared from these retained records, and your attribution is replaced with Former member. Personal vote records are deleted while aggregate poll totals remain.
Removing account attribution does not necessarily remove personal information you entered in free-text notes or information visible in photos. If a retained record contains personal information about you, identify it in a deletion request so we can review its removal.
Your photo choice
- Delete my photos is selected by default. Your uploaded ranch photos are deleted.
- Leave my photos with the ranch is optional. Those photos remain available to the ranch with your account attribution removed.
- Private buck photos are deleted in either case. Photos in a ranch deleted because you are its only member are also deleted.
Ranch ownership and administration
If you own a ranch or are its only admin, select a successor for each affected ranch before confirming deletion. You can select an eligible Manager or Member, who is promoted to admin. If you are a ranch’s only member, that ranch and its data are deleted.
Data retention
Account and personal data are retained while needed to operate your account and are deleted through the account-deletion process described above. Ranch records with your account attribution removed, aggregate poll totals, and photos you explicitly choose to leave remain with the ranch until those records or the ranch are deleted.
Subscription cancellation stops renewal but does not erase store purchase history. Apple, Google, and RevenueCat apply their own retention requirements to purchase records. Subscription and transaction records needed to support remaining paid ranch benefits, prevent fraud, or meet legal obligations may remain after account deletion.
Analytics, diagnostic, infrastructure, and backup records are subject to the relevant provider’s retention and deletion processes and the service’s configured settings. Removing a login account does not by itself erase previously collected records from every service. Contact us to request deletion of personal information associated with those records. If information must be retained for security, fraud prevention, or a legal obligation, we will explain the applicable reason when responding to your request.
For requests requiring manual work, we communicate the expected completion time and confirm completion.
Security
We use authenticated access, role-based access controls, and protections provided by our cloud services to restrict access to account and ranch data. No storage or transmission method is completely secure. Do not include passwords, verification codes, or payment card information in support messages.
Your choices and privacy requests
You can request access, a copy of your data, correction, or deletion by emailing [email protected]. You may also contact us about withdrawing consent or objecting to particular data uses. We may verify account ownership before fulfilling a request. Device settings control permissions such as photo access and notifications; they do not necessarily disable analytics or crash reporting.
Manage or cancel subscriptions through Apple App Store or Google Play. Restoring a purchase restores benefits for its original ranch. To subscribe for another ranch, cancel the current ranch subscription and sign up separately for the other ranch.
