Privacy Policy

Effective date: August 14, 2026

Dry Run ("Dry Run," "we," "us") is an iOS app for running an alcohol-free challenge. This policy explains what information the app and dryrunapp.com handle, where it goes, and the choices you have. The short version: almost everything in the app stays on your phone, the social features are opt-in, we use limited analytics on our public website, and we don't run ads or sell data.

Information stored only on your device

The core of Dry Run works entirely on your iPhone. The following is stored locally (and in your device's app group storage so your widgets can read it) and is not sent to us:

• Your challenge start date, chosen distance, and daily check-ins ("signed" days)
• Your pledge name and the date you signed the pledge
• Your "why" statement, goals, drinking-frequency and weekly-spend answers from onboarding
• Your reminder settings
• Your profile photo, if you add one (it never leaves your device)
• Your personal drink shelf, tasting history, ratings, and any label photo you keep private

Deleting the app deletes this data.

Optional social features (iCloud / CloudKit)

Some features share limited information through Apple's iCloud (CloudKit) public database. They are opt-in — your core run and personal drink shelf remain on your device unless you choose to use a community feature.

• Leaderboard: if you choose to join, your row shows your first name and last initial (derived from your pledge name), a city you type yourself, your start date/day count, your chosen distance, and (if applicable) a Founding Runner badge. This is visible to other Dry Run users. Tap "Take me off the board" at any time to delete your row for everyone.
• Crews: if you create or join a crew, your first name, start date, day count, check-in count, and chosen distance are visible to anyone who has your crew code. When you sign a day, crew members may receive a notification with your first name and day number. Leaving a crew deletes your record.
• Community drink ratings: when you rate a drink from the public catalog, Dry Run stores the drink ID, half-star rating, update time, and a random installation identifier. Other users see only the combined average and rating count, not your individual rating or identity. Clearing the rating or marking the drink untried removes your rating from the community data; if you are offline, that deletion is queued and retried.
• Catalog suggestions: a personal drink stays private unless you explicitly suggest it for review. A suggestion can include the name, brand, category, style, ABV, submission time, and an optional label photo you affirm you took or have permission to share. Suggestions are reviewed privately for duplicates and accuracy before anything can enter the public catalog. You can withdraw a queued or submitted suggestion in the app; offline removal is queued and retried.

This data is stored in Apple's CloudKit, subject to Apple's privacy practices. CloudKit associates records with technical identifiers needed to sync, deduplicate, update, and delete them. We do not receive your iCloud email address or password.

Purchases

Subscriptions are processed by Apple and managed through RevenueCat, our subscription infrastructure provider. RevenueCat receives transaction information from Apple (such as purchase and renewal events and an anonymous app user ID) to determine your subscription status. We never see or store your payment card details — Apple handles all payment processing.

To understand who Dry Run helps and where runners hear about us, we also attach some of your onboarding answers to your RevenueCat customer record: your pledge name, how you heard about the app, how often you said you drink, your estimated weekly drinking spend, your goals, and your chosen challenge distance. RevenueCat processes this on our behalf and it is never sold, shared for advertising, or used to track you across other apps. You can request deletion at any time (see “Your choices and rights” below).

Notifications

Daily reminders are scheduled locally on your device. Crew check-in notifications are delivered through Apple's push notification service via CloudKit. Both require your permission and can be turned off in the app or in iOS Settings.

Website analytics

We use Google Analytics on the public pages of dryrunapp.com to understand website traffic and improve the site. Google Analytics may collect the page viewed, referral source, clicks on App Store download buttons, approximate location, browser and device information, and session statistics. It uses first-party cookies, including _ga, to distinguish visitors and sessions.

We do not send your in-app challenge data, onboarding answers, profile information, or drink history to Google Analytics. Crew invitation pages are excluded from website analytics so crew codes are not sent to Google. Google processes website analytics data as described in How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services. You can block or delete cookies in your browser or use the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.

What we don't do

• No advertising and no third-party ad networks in the iOS app
• No tracking across other companies' apps or websites, and no App Tracking Transparency prompt because the iOS app does not track you
• No sale, rental, or sharing of personal information for marketing
• No behavioral analytics SDKs in the iOS app recording what you tap or view; the public website analytics are described above
• No account creation — we never ask for your email, phone number, or password

Your choices and rights

• Delete leaderboard data: Crew tab → The Board → "Take me off the board."
• Delete crew data: Crew tab → My Crew → "Leave crew."
• Delete a community drink rating: open the drink and choose "Clear rating" or turn off "Tried."
• Withdraw a catalog suggestion: open your personal drink and choose "Withdraw suggestion." Removing the personal drink also queues deletion of its submitted suggestion.
• Delete local data: delete the app.
• Anything else: email us and we'll help — including manual deletion of any public-database records associated with you.

Children

Dry Run is not directed at children and is intended for adults of legal drinking age. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 17.

Health disclaimer

Dry Run shows general wellness information about alcohol-free time. It is not medical advice, and the app does not collect health data from HealthKit or any medical source.

Changes

If this policy changes, we'll update this page and the effective date above. Material changes will be called out in the app.
