Trolley privacy policy
Your shopping list is yours. Trolley has no servers of its own, no ads and no tracking.
BRYLABS ("we", "our", or "us") makes the Trolley app ("App"). This policy explains what the App does with your information.
1. The short version
Trolley stores your lists on your iPhone and in your own private iCloud account. We don't run servers for Trolley, we can't see your lists, and we don't sell, share or use your information for advertising. There are no analytics or tracking tools in the App.
2. Where your data is stored
On your device: Stores, list items, often-bought history, saved product photos and settings are stored on your iPhone.
Your iCloud: If you're signed in to iCloud, this data syncs through Apple's CloudKit to your private iCloud database so it's on all your devices. Apple stores it under your Apple Account; BRYLABS has no access to it.
Household sharing (Trolley Pro): When you invite someone, the shared list (stores, items, who added each item, who is shopping or has claimed a store) is shared through iCloud with the people you invite. You can stop sharing or leave at any time from Household in the App.
3. Information the App uses
- Sign in with Apple (optional): If you sign in, Apple gives the App an anonymous identifier and, if you choose, your name. It's kept on your device and used to show who added an item in a shared list. It is never sent to us.
- Location (optional): Used to find stores near you while you choose a branch, and, if you turn on arrival reminders, to let iOS notify you when you arrive at a saved store. Store searches go to Apple Maps. iOS monitors store locations on your device; your location isn't sent to us or stored by Trolley.
- Camera and photos (optional): Used only when you take or choose a photo of a product, or scan a written list or receipt. Text in scans is read on your device using Apple's Vision framework. Photos stay on your device and in your iCloud.
- Notifications (optional): Used for arrival reminders and, with Trolley Pro, alerts when someone in your household is at the shops.
- Siri and widgets: When you add items with Siri, Apple processes the request and passes the text to Trolley. Widgets read a summary of your list stored on your device.
4. Subscriptions
Trolley Pro is sold through the App Store. Apple processes payment; the App only receives whether your subscription is active. We never see your payment details. Manage or cancel in your iPhone's Settings.
5. Third parties
Trolley uses only Apple services: iCloud and CloudKit, Sign in with Apple, Apple Maps, Siri, StoreKit and notifications. These are covered by Apple's Privacy Policy. There are no advertising networks, analytics or tracking SDKs.
6. Keeping and deleting your data
Your data stays until you delete it. Delete items or stores in the App, or delete the App and remove Trolley's data from iCloud in Settings › your name › iCloud › Manage Storage.
7. Children
Trolley isn't directed at children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect information from them.
8. Your rights
Because your information lives on your device and in your iCloud, you can see, change and delete all of it directly. Under the Australian Privacy Principles, the GDPR (EEA and UK) and the CCPA (California) you may also contact us with questions or requests. We don't sell or share personal information.
9. Changes
If this policy changes we'll update the date at the top of this page.
