Privacy
We hold nothing about you.
There's no account, so we don't know who you are. No sign in, no email address, no
name, no advertising identifier. Nothing here tracks you and there's nothing to sell.
One thing does leave your phone: the coordinate of the field you tap.
That's the only way to fetch satellite pictures and weather for a particular piece of
ground. It isn't connected to you, because we've got nothing to connect it to.
It goes to one server, ours. The app makes no other call to anyone,
with a single exception it can't avoid: Apple sends the map tiles, the same as in any
app that shows a map.

None of fourteen
What our own server does see
Saying nothing is collected isn't the same as saying nothing happens, so here is the
thing itself. You tap a field, and the coordinate and the outline come to us, because
that's the only way to fetch pictures and weather for one particular piece of ground.
Our server keeps what it fetches, so the next person looking at the same ground doesn't
cost the public archives another download.
What it keeps is filed by place. Weather for a grid cell, imagery for an
outline, road geometry for an area. There's no list of your fields anywhere, ours
included, because there's no account for such a list to hang off.
Apple's fourteen categories are about the location of a user or a device. Your phone's
location is exactly that, and it never leaves the phone. The coordinate of a paddock you
point at is a different thing, which is why none of those rows is ticked.
The longer version, for anyone who wants it
Your phone's location stays on your phone
If you allow location access, it does one thing: centres the map on where you are.
It's never sent to us or to anyone else.
There's one place that distinction gets thin, and we'd rather say it than let the
wording cover for it. If you're standing in a paddock and you tap it, the coordinate
you send us is roughly where you're standing. We still don't know who you are, but
the coordinate is accurate to a few metres.
Nothing else leaves
Weather, imagery and road names all come through our own server, so the archives behind
them see us asking about a patch of ground rather than seeing you.
A report or a video only goes somewhere when you send it, through the normal iOS share
sheet, and it goes wherever you choose. Saving a season video writes it to your photo
library; the app never reads from your library. There's no iCloud sync, so there's no
copy of your fields anywhere but the phone in your hand.
What we keep
Our server caches what it fetches, filed by location and never by person:
weather for a grid cell, imagery for a field outline, road geometry for an area. It's kept
so the next person looking at the same ground doesn't cost the public archives another
download.
We keep ordinary web logs, including the IP address a request came from, for
[N] days, for security and for working out why something was slow.
Nothing in them is joined up with anything else.
The servers run in Microsoft Azure's West Europe region, which is where the Sentinel-2
archive lives. Wildeye is a New Zealand company.
What we don't do
No analytics, no crash reporting, no advertising identifier, and no tracking prompt,
because there's nothing to ask you about. Nothing is sold, and nothing is shared for
advertising. Nobody's data trains anything.
Children
Nothing here is aimed at children, and nothing is collected from anyone of any age.
Asking us what we hold
You can ask, and the honest answer is that we can't look it up. Nothing is filed under a
person, so there's no record of yours to produce. There's no account to close either.
Deleting the app takes your saved fields with it, because that's the only place they ever
were.

Changes
If this changes, it gets a new date at the top.
Disclaimer
Don't rely on it on its own
This is one input. Irrigation, and anything else you do on the strength of it, needs
instruments on the ground and your own judgement as well.
The numbers can be wrong
They're worked out from public data we don't produce and can't verify: satellite imagery
from Sentinel-2, weather from gridMET, SILO and Open-Meteo, road names from
OpenStreetMap. Those archives can be late, incomplete or simply wrong, and we pass on
whatever they give us. Our own arithmetic can be wrong too.
