Privacy
Last updated November 11, 2026.
What you record in RangeRings is stored on your iPhone and leaves it only when you share it.
Introduction
This Privacy Policy describes how Worktree Labs LLC ("Worktree Labs", "we" or "us") handles information in connection with the RangeRings app for iPhone ("RangeRings") and its website. RangeRings has no accounts, Worktree Labs operates no servers for it, and we do not collect, receive, store or process any information from the app about the people who use it. The one thing we do receive is a message you choose to send us through our support page, described under Our Websites and Support Form.
Information We Collect
We do not collect any information from you through RangeRings. You do not create an account with us, RangeRings contains no analytics, advertising or tracking code, and nothing in RangeRings identifies you to Worktree Labs. The information described below is created and kept on your iPhone by the app, and none of it is transmitted to Worktree Labs.
Location. With your permission, RangeRings uses your iPhone's location while the app is in use, to center range rings where you are, to show the accuracy of your Global Positioning System (GPS) fix, and to show the distance and bearing from you to a range or a mark. RangeRings asks only for access while the app is in use. It never asks for access at all times and does not use your location in the background. If you have turned off precise location, RangeRings may ask for precise location once, for the distances it shows. RangeRings does not keep a history of where you have been. A location is saved only when it becomes part of something you keep, such as the center of a range, a mark you place, or where a harvest happened.
Content you create. This includes ranges and their centers, rings and their settings, marks, the movement you draw or describe for a mark, lanes and restricted areas you draw, harvest records (species, date and time, where the animal stood and where it was found, the distance tracked, and notes), and names you type for people on a harvest or a range, such as the people who hunted with you.
Photos. If you add a photo to a harvest or a mark, you choose it from your photo library through the system's photo picker, which gives RangeRings only the photos you select, or you take it with the camera, which RangeRings asks permission to use the first time you tap Take a photo. RangeRings reads the place and time the photo was taken from the photo's own information, offers them for the record, and saves them with the record if you keep them. It then stores its own copy of the photo, and a smaller copy for lists, with the photo's original information, including its location, removed. Photos you take in RangeRings are not added to your photo library.
Settings. Your choices of units, coordinate format, appearance, which items are shown on the map, and similar preferences are kept on your iPhone.
How Your Information Is Stored
Your ranges, marks, harvests and settings are stored on your iPhone, in RangeRings' own storage. They are kept in a single file, and your photos are stored as separate files beside it. Both are written with the strongest file protection iOS offers to apps, so they are encrypted and cannot be read by RangeRings or anything else while your iPhone is locked. If your iPhone is backed up to iCloud or to a computer, that backup includes RangeRings' data, as it does for any app.
Sharing Your Information
Sharing a file. RangeRings lets you share a range, a harvest, or a set of them as a file, through your iPhone's share sheet, for example by AirDrop, Messages, Mail or Files. The file goes only where you send it. It is not sent to Worktree Labs and does not pass through any server of ours. A shared file always includes the exact location of everything in it, such as the center of a range, its marks, lanes and restricted areas, and where a harvest happened, together with any names of people on those records. You may choose whether to include photos. The photos in a shared file are RangeRings' own copies, with their original information removed, but the place and time read from them travel with the record. Once you have sent a file, the person who receives it, and the service you used to send it, have a copy that we cannot recall or delete.
Sharing a map picture. Share map creates a picture of the map as it is on your screen, including the rings, marks and readings shown on it, and hands it to the share sheet. RangeRings does not keep the picture. If you choose Save Image, RangeRings asks for permission to add it to your photo library. That permission allows RangeRings to add pictures but not to read your library.
Third-Party Services
RangeRings relies on a small number of services provided by Apple. Where information leaves your iPhone for one of these services, it goes to Apple, not to Worktree Labs, and is subject to Apple's Privacy Policy.
Maps. The map and its satellite imagery come from Apple Maps through Apple's MapKit framework. To show the map, your iPhone requests imagery for the area you are viewing from Apple. RangeRings does not store or copy that imagery. Use of the map is also subject to Apple's Maps terms, linked from the Legal link on the map.
Address search. When you search for an address or a place, the words you type and the area of the map you are viewing are sent to Apple Maps to find matches. Nothing else is sent.
Describe movement. When you describe an animal's movement in words, RangeRings reads your description on your iPhone, first with its own rules and then, where your iPhone supports Apple Intelligence and it is turned on, with Apple's on-device model. Your description is not sent to Apple or to Worktree Labs for this. If you dictate a description, dictation is provided by your iPhone's keyboard and is subject to Apple's settings and policies.
RangeRings includes one software library from another company, Lottie, an animation library published by Airbnb, which draws animations on your iPhone and does not collect or send any information.
Our Websites and Support Form
RangeRings' website, rangerings.app, and our company website, worktreelabs.com, are both hosted by Vercel, which processes Internet Protocol (IP) addresses to deliver pages, as any web host does. They count page views and measure page speed with Vercel's analytics, which set no cookies and do not identify you. Neither carries advertising.
The home page of rangerings.app may show a map you can try. Its satellite imagery comes from Apple Maps through Apple's MapKit JS, which your browser loads from Apple; to show the map, your browser requests imagery for the area shown from Apple, which receives your IP address as any web server does and handles it under Apple's Privacy Policy. Marks and lines you place on that map stay in your browser and are gone when you leave the page. Use of the map is also subject to Apple's Maps terms, linked from the Legal link on the map.
Our support page has one form. If you send it, we receive what you type into it: your name, your email address, an organization if you give one, and your message. Nothing you have recorded in RangeRings is attached to it. The form is delivered to our email inbox by Resend, our email provider. To keep automated submissions out, the form may be checked by Cloudflare Turnstile and counted against a limit kept for ten minutes by Upstash, both of which use your IP address. We keep your message for as long as we need it to answer you, use it for nothing else, do not sell or share it, and delete it when you ask us to.
Analytics, Advertising and Tracking
RangeRings contains no analytics, advertising or tracking of any kind. We do not sell or share your information. RangeRings does not track you across other companies' apps or websites. Nothing you record in RangeRings reaches Worktree Labs, so none of it is read by a person at Worktree Labs or processed by an artificial intelligence (AI) model on our behalf.
Data Retention and Deletion
Information stays on your iPhone until you delete it. When you delete a range, mark, lane, restricted area, harvest or photo, RangeRings first offers Undo, and removes it once Undo is no longer available. Archiving an item instead keeps it on your iPhone. Deleting RangeRings from your iPhone removes everything RangeRings stored there. Copies of deleted information may remain in iPhone, iCloud or computer backups made before the deletion, and in any file you shared. Worktree Labs holds no copy of your information, so there is nothing for us to delete on your behalf.
Your Rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to know what personal information a company holds about you, to get a copy of it, and to have it corrected or deleted. Laws that may give you these rights include, for example, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), Cal. Civ. Code § 1798.100 and following (California Legislative Information; California Privacy Protection Agency), the Virginia Consumer Data Protection Act, the Colorado Privacy Act, the Connecticut Data Privacy Act, the Utah Consumer Privacy Act, the Texas Data Privacy and Security Act and the Oregon Consumer Privacy Act (sources last checked November 9, 2026). Each applies to a business only in the circumstances it sets out.
Because Worktree Labs holds no information about you from RangeRings, and every record in RangeRings is available to you on your own iPhone, you can see, correct and delete it yourself within the app, as described above. Whether or not a particular law applies to us, we will answer a request from any user to know, copy, correct or delete the personal information we hold about them. If you have sent us the support form, you can ask us for a copy of what you sent or ask us to delete it. To make a request, or for confirmation in writing, contact us through our support page.
Children's Privacy
RangeRings is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13, as defined by the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) Rule, 16 C.F.R. Part 312 (last checked November 9, 2026). A person under 18 may use RangeRings only with the consent of a parent or guardian, as our Terms of Use describe. If you believe a child under 13 has sent us personal information, contact us through our support page and we will delete it.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. If we make a material change, we will publish the updated policy on this website and in RangeRings, and update the date at the top of this page, before the change takes effect. If we add a feature that sends information you record in RangeRings to Worktree Labs, we will update this policy before that feature is offered.
