Privacy Policy at crewlog
Last Revised: May 25, 2021
Crewlog Principles
Crewlog respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use Crewlog. We recognize the importance of protecting personally identifiable information (“Personal Information” or “PII”) collected about you and other visitors (collectively, “Users”) to our website and mobile application (the “Services”) while delivering the sea time logging you enjoy. Crewlog recognizes that using our service is a choice you make, and you can change your mind at any time. If you need assistance with canceling your subscription or deleting your account, please reach out to support@crewlog.com This Policy applies to the Service, which includes the Crewlog mobile application, the website located at www.crewlog.com its subdomains, and all of the websites and internet properties owned or operated by us, regardless of the medium by which the Site is accessed by Users (e.g., via a web or mobile browser).
How the Service works
When you create an account, the onboarding screens provide guidance around collecting location data and optimizing your device for trip detection. The app runs in the background to detect trips based on the movement of your mobile device, so there is no need to press a start or stop button.
Automatic trip detection is dependent on factors you control (such as location services and battery usage) as well as factors outside of your control (such as no cellular reception). Best practices include enabling location services, avoiding force-quitting the app or pausing trip detection, staying up-to-date with the latest OS on your device, optimizing low battery settings and staying logged in to the app.
What Data Is Collected
Crewlog collects location information to provide you with trip data whenever you are logged in to the app and have location services turned on and available. Additional telemetry around how you interact with the app (what buttons are/aren't pushed, etc.) is collected to provide troubleshooting and improve the user experience. If you do not want trip data collected, you can pause, log out of or delete the app. Logging out or deleting the app also stops additional telemetry from being collected. While you must input an email address and password to create an account and use Crewlog, providing the following information is optional:
