Privacy Policy

Effective 19 May 2026

RoamRate is built to do one thing well — convert currency for travellers — without harvesting your data.

The short version: no accounts, no ads, no analytics, no tracking. Almost everything stays on your device. This policy explains exactly what the app does and does not do with information.

What RoamRate does not collect

• No account, name, email or login — RoamRate has no sign-up.
• No analytics or usage tracking — we do not measure what you tap.
• No advertising identifiers — there are no ads and no ad networks.
• We never sell or share personal data, because we do not collect it.

Location

If you allow it, RoamRate uses your device's location once when the app opens to work out which country you are in, so it can pre-select the local currency. Your coordinates are handled by your device's location services and used only to derive the country — RoamRate does not transmit or store your location. You can decline the permission, or turn off "Auto-detect country" in Settings; the app works fully without it.

Information stored on your device

Your settings, recent currencies and the last downloaded exchange rates are saved locally on your device so the app works offline. This information never leaves your device and is removed when you delete the app.

Exchange rates

To keep conversions current, RoamRate fetches exchange-rate data from a third-party provider (ExchangeRate-API, exchangerate-api.com). These requests contain no personal information. As with any internet request, the provider's servers receive your device's IP address.

Purchases

RoamRate Pro is a one-time purchase. Payment is processed by Apple through the App Store — RoamRate never sees your card or payment details. To deliver your purchase and restore it across your devices, RoamRate uses RevenueCat, a purchase-management service. RevenueCat processes a randomly generated identifier, your purchase history and basic device information, used only to grant and restore Pro access — never for advertising or tracking. See Apple's and RevenueCat's privacy policies for details.

Children

RoamRate is a general-audience utility, is not directed at children, and does not knowingly collect information from anyone.

Changes

If this policy changes, the updated version will be posted on this page with a new effective date.
