Privacy Policy
Last updated: 7 November 2026
RouteReel turns your activities into short videos. It is built so that your routes, photos and health data stay on your phone.
The short version
Videos are made on your phone. Your routes, photos and health data are not sent to us.
No ads, no tracking, and we never sell your data.
There are no accounts: you don’t sign up or sign in.
What the app uses, and why
Routes: the GPX files you open and, on Android, the workouts and routes you allow RouteReel to read from Health Connect. They are used only to make your video, on your phone.
Location: only while you record a route in RouteReel (you start and stop it), the phone’s GPS position, to draw that route. A notification shows while it records. The route stays on your phone and is not sent to us; RouteReel never uses your location in the background otherwise.
Photos: only the photos you pick, including when and where they were taken (so they can be placed on your route). They stay on your phone.
Purchases (if you buy Premium): the subscription is bought and paid through Google Play, with your Google account. The app asks Google Play only whether you have Premium; we never see your payment details, your name or your email.
Your videos and settings are saved on your phone.
Maps and terrain
To draw maps, the app downloads map pictures from OpenFreeMap and Amazon Web Services (terrain). Like any web request, these include your device’s IP address and which part of the map is shown, which can reveal the area of your route. They do not receive your route or your name. Their own privacy policies apply.
Health Connect
RouteReel reads exercise sessions (type of activity, start and end time) and exercise routes (the GPS points of the route) from Health Connect only after you allow it, only when you import a workout, and only to make your video, on your phone. It reads no other health data and writes nothing to Health Connect.
This data is not sent to us or anyone else, not shared, not sold, and not used for advertising, profiling or any purpose other than your video. The use of information received from Health Connect adheres to the Health Connect Permissions policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
You can take the permission back at any time in Health Connect.
Sharing
We don’t share or sell your data. A video you share goes only where you share it, and that app’s rules apply there.
Keeping and deleting your data
Everything on your phone is deleted when you delete your videos or uninstall the app. We keep no data about you anywhere else.
Children
RouteReel is not meant for children under 13, and we don’t knowingly collect their data.
Your rights
You can ask what data we have about you, and ask us to correct or delete it, at simple.mob.application@gmail.com. If you live in the EU or the UK you also have the right to complain to your data protection authority.
Changes
If this policy changes, the new version is shown in the app with a new date.
