Privacy Policy

Last updated: August 10, 2026

Short version: Torq keeps your garage on your phone. We don’t run accounts, analytics, or ads. Here’s the longer version.

Who We Are

Torq (App Store name: Torq Garage Tool) is a vehicle maintenance tracking app for iOS. This policy explains how Torq handles information when you use the app.

What Data the App Stores

Torq stores the information you enter so the app can work. That may include:

• Vehicle details (year, make, model, mileage, VIN, warranty, insurance notes)
• Service and fuel logs (category, date, mileage, cost, notes)
• Maintenance intervals, seasonal checklist progress, and app preferences
• A local flag indicating whether Torq Pro has been unlocked on this device

This data is stored on your device only using on-device storage (such as SQLite and SharedPreferences). Torq does not require an account and does not upload your garage to our servers.

What We Do Not Collect

• No sign-up, email, or profile
• No analytics or advertising identifiers used by us
• No crash-reporting or usage telemetry sent to us
• No location tracking
• No selling or sharing of personal data with data brokers

In-App Purchases

Torq Pro is a one-time In-App Purchase processed by Apple. Payment details are handled by Apple under Apple’s terms and privacy policy. Torq receives purchase status from StoreKit so the app can unlock Pro features and support Restore Purchase. We do not receive or store your full payment card information.

Tracking

Torq does not track you across other companies’ apps or websites and does not use your data for targeted advertising.

Exports You Choose

If you use Pro features such as CSV export or copying a mechanic report, that content is prepared on your device for you to copy or share through the system share sheet. Those actions are under your control.

Data Retention & Deletion

Your data remains on your device until you delete a vehicle, clear app data, or delete the app. Uninstalling Torq removes on-device app data subject to iOS behavior.

Children

Torq is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Changes

We may update this policy if the app’s practices change. The “Last updated” date at the top will change when we do. Continued use of the app after an update means you accept the revised policy.
