YOUR PRIVACY
Personal plans. Clear choices.
This policy describes the Easedrift Studios website and the current ViaRise iPhone app. We explain what stays on your device, what is sent to services and what you control.
1. Your journey plans stay on your device
ViaRise stores saved Home and destination addresses, occasion journey plans, schedules, routine durations, alarm preferences, route estimates and history locally on your iPhone. These plans are not uploaded to Easedrift Studios or sent to RevenueCat. ViaRise does not currently offer cloud plan sync or a user account.
Device backups may contain local app data according to your Apple backup settings. Widgets use a shared on-device copy of your plan; destination and alarm details may be visible on your Home or Lock Screen. Widget quick actions and Siri shortcuts open the relevant app screen for review; they do not automatically confirm alarms or send messages.
2. Address searches and journey estimates
Apple Maps receives the search text and places needed to find addresses, calculate estimates and compare routes. These requests can include your saved Home and destination coordinates and planned departure time. This is route calculation, not continuous location tracking.
Travel estimates can change and are not guarantees. Apple processes Maps requests under its own privacy policy.
3. Optional calendars and alarms
Calendar access is requested when you choose calendar planning. ViaRise reads events from the calendars you select on your iPhone to suggest destinations and arrival times. You explicitly confirm any imported event as a local date override. ViaRise does not edit your calendars or upload their contents.
With your permission, Apple’s system alarm service handles confirmed alarms and snooze on supported iOS versions. You can manage calendar and alarm permissions through iOS Settings. Closed-app traffic refreshes are best effort, not continuous monitoring.
4. Purchases and membership
RevenueCat processes purchase records, product identifiers, an automatically generated app-user identifier, membership status and technical information needed to operate purchases. Your saved addresses, routines, alarm times and calendar data are not sent to RevenueCat. Its privacy policy describes its processing.
Apple handles App Store payment details. ViaRise does not receive your card information. Development Test Store payments are simulated and do not charge real money.
5. Sharing and travel handoffs are your choice
Start & share requests a fresh leaving-now Maps estimate, shows you the message and lets you choose recipients through the iPhone share sheet. The message contains an estimated arrival, not live tracking. Your Home address, coordinates, alarm times and calendar details are excluded. Including the destination name is optional and off by default.
ViaRise does not access your contacts, automatically send messages or upload recipient lists. The app you select to send a message handles that message under its own policy.
If you choose to open Maps or Uber, the places needed for that journey are passed to that service. Taxi calls and other handoffs happen only when you select them. ViaRise does not make a booking on your behalf.
6. Your controls and retention
You can edit or delete saved places, remove schedules, delete history in Insights, disconnect calendars and remove widgets. Sound previews play locally and do not record you. Saved extra destinations remain on your device if Plus access ends; access limits do not silently delete them.
Uninstalling removes local app data, but does not cancel a subscription or remove records held by Apple or RevenueCat. Manage or cancel subscriptions through Apple subscription settings. Third-party records follow those services’ retention policies.
7. This website
The Easedrift Studios website does not use analytics, advertising trackers, third-party embeds or email-capture forms. It does not ask for a user account. The hosting service may process ordinary technical requests, including IP addresses and browser information, to deliver the site and protect its service. We do not use those requests to create advertising profiles.
If you contact us, only send the information needed to answer your question. Do not include saved addresses, calendar contents or payment details.
8. Updates and questions
We will update this page if ViaRise’s data practices change. This policy applies to the features described above; future cloud features would need an updated disclosure.
For help, visit our support page or email [email protected]. We use information you send only to respond to your request.
