Privacy
The short version
Bivvy has no account, no app backend and no analytics. Nothing you type is ever sent to a Bivvy server, because there is no app backend to receive it. This website is a plain marketing and support site; using the app never talks to it.
What stays on your device
Your trips, campsites, meals, shopping list, gear, people and everything you write about them are stored in a database on your device. Bivvy keeps no separate copy — it stays on your device and, if you choose, your own iCloud, until you remove it.
If you turn on iCloud sync, that same data is copied to your own private iCloud account so your other devices can read it. It goes to Apple, under your Apple ID, not to Bivvy. We cannot see it.
If you share a trip, that one trip is copied into a shared area of your iCloud so the people you invite can read and change it. Only that trip travels.
What the app never collects
No name, email address, phone number or contact. When you invite someone, Apple’s own sharing screen looks them up — their address never reaches Bivvy.
No advertising identifiers, and no advertising. There is no ad SDK in the app.
No usage analytics, no crash telemetry, no location tracking.
When the app talks to the internet
iCloud sync, when you turn it on. Apple carries it; we do not.
The App Store, when you buy or restore Bivvy Pro. Apple handles the payment; Bivvy is told only whether this Apple ID owns it.
Map tiles, drawn by Apple Maps, when you look at a map.
Looking up an address you type, using the geocoder built into iOS. Apple handles that lookup. The campground list itself is bundled in the app and needs no network at all.
Children
A child on a trip is a name you typed and a packing list. They have no account, and nothing about them leaves your devices except through the iCloud sync and sharing you chose.
Deleting things
Deleting a trip removes it from this device and your other devices. Settings › Backup keeps a snapshot first.
Settings › iCloud sync › Delete my personal iCloud copy removes your main Bivvy workspace from iCloud. Trips with their own iCloud area — shared now, shared with you, or once shared — are ended or deleted from the trip itself.
Deleting the app removes everything on the device. Your iCloud copy is removed by deleting it in Bivvy first, or from iOS Settings › your name › iCloud.
This website
bivvycamp.com serves these pages and keeps no logs of its own beyond what its hosting platform records to operate. It sets no cookies, runs no analytics, and loads nothing from third parties.
Your control
Your data stays until you remove it. iCloud sync can be turned off at any time in Settings › iCloud sync, and the app keeps working on your device.
Every permission Bivvy asks for — notifications for booking reminders, Face ID for App Lock, calendar access when you add an opening to your calendar — is optional and can be changed in iOS Settings whenever you like. Bivvy never asks for your location.
There is no consent to withdraw from Bivvy, because Bivvy collects nothing to begin with; and no deletion request to make of us, because we hold nothing to delete.
When you contact support
If you email support@bivvycamp.com, we receive the email address, message and any screenshots you choose to send, and use them only to answer you. We keep that correspondence only as long as reasonably needed to resolve and follow up on your request.
The app never sends your trips or anything else to support on its own — what you send is what we see.
Changes
If any of this ever changes, it changes here and in the app, in the same release that changes the behaviour.
