Privacy Policy

Last updated: October 29, 2025

Overview

DX Spots Monitor is committed to protecting your privacy. This privacy policy explains how we handle information in our iOS application.

Information We Do Not Collect

We do not collect, store, or transmit any personal information from our users. The app does not:

• Collect personal data

• Track user behavior

• Use analytics services

• Display advertisements

• Share data with third parties

Data Storage

All data is stored locally on your device using iOS UserDefaults:

• Your amateur radio callsign (for connecting to DX Cluster servers)

• Notification preferences

• Watched callsigns and regions

• Band filter settings

This data never leaves your device and is not synchronized or backed up to any external servers.

Network Connections

The app connects directly to public DX Cluster servers (such as OH2AQ, GB7DXM, VE1ALQ) using the Telnet protocol. These connections:

• Are made directly from your device to the DX Cluster servers

• Only transmit your callsign for authentication

• Do not go through our servers

• Use unencrypted plain text protocol (standard for DX Cluster networks)

External Links

The app may open external websites (such as QRZ.com) when you tap on callsigns. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of these external websites.

Notifications

The app uses local notifications only. These notifications:

• Are generated and delivered locally on your device

• Do not use Apple Push Notification Service

• Do not transmit any data

Children's Privacy

The app does not knowingly collect information from children. The app is designed for amateur radio operators and contains only technical information.

Data Security

Since all data is stored locally on your device and no data is transmitted to external servers (except for direct connections to DX Cluster servers), your data security depends on your device's security settings.

Your Rights

Since we do not collect any personal data, there is no data to access, modify, or delete on our servers. You can delete all app data by uninstalling the app from your device.

Third-Party Services

The app does not use any third-party services, SDKs, or analytics tools. The only external connections are direct Telnet connections to public DX Cluster servers.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by updating the "Last updated" date at the top of this policy.
