Bali Belly Privacy Policy
Last updated 13 October 2026
This policy explains how Bali Belly handles your information. Bali Belly is made by Redpoint Studio, an independent app studio (“we”, “us”).
The short version: Bali Belly has no accounts, no ads and no tracking. It sends anonymous usage analytics to help us improve the app, which aren't linked to your identity. Your precise location, saved places and settings stay on your iPhone, and the restaurant data and scores are built into the app.
What we don't do
- We don't sell or rent your personal information.
- We don't use your information for advertising, and the app doesn't contain ads.
- We don't track you across apps and websites owned by other companies.
Location
If you allow it, Bali Belly uses your approximate location (to about 100 metres), only while the app is open, to centre the map and show how far away places are. Your precise location is used on your device and is never sent to us or anyone else. The app works without location access; you just won't see distances. You can change this at any time in Settings → Privacy & Security → Location Services.
Search and maps
The map and place search use Apple Maps. When you search, your search text and the area of the map you're looking at are sent to Apple to find results, and are handled under Apple's Privacy Policy.
Analytics
To understand how Bali Belly is used, fix problems and make it better, the app sends anonymous usage events to PostHog, an analytics service. This data is processed in the United States.
The events cover:
- Installing, opening and closing the app
- Which screens you view, such as onboarding, the map, search, your profile, plans and the risk score explainer
- Places you open, save or unsave, and taps on directions, call or Google Maps, including the place's name, category and risk score
- What you search for, and how many results came back
- Starting, completing, cancelling or failing a purchase, and restoring purchases, including the plan, price and currency
- How long the app takes to start, so we can keep it fast
- Your device model, iOS version and app version, which the analytics software includes automatically
These events are tied to a random ID created when you install the app. They aren't linked to your name, email, Apple ID, advertising ID or any account, and we don't build a profile of you. We don't combine them with data from other companies, use them for advertising, or use them to track you across other apps and websites. PostHog doesn't record your screen. Deleting and reinstalling the app gives it a new random ID.
PostHog uses the IP address of your connection to estimate your approximate location, such as your country and city. This is far less precise than your device location, which is only used on your iPhone and never sent anywhere.
Stored on your device only
- Places you save
- Your recent searches
- Your preferences, such as distance units, trip length and avatar
- Whether you've finished onboarding
This stays on your iPhone and is deleted when you delete the app.
Purchases
Trip Pass and Yearly purchases are processed by Apple. We never see your payment details. Purchases are managed by RevenueCat, which receives an anonymous app user ID, your purchase history for this app, and basic device information (such as iOS version, country and app version) so it can tell the app what you've bought. It isn't linked to your identity, and RevenueCat doesn't receive your name or email address from us.
Purchase events, including the plan, price and currency, are also recorded in PostHog for analytics, as described in Analytics above.
Links to other services
If you tap to call a place, open it in Google Maps, get directions or visit its website, you'll leave Bali Belly, and that service's own privacy policy applies.
Emailing us
If you contact support, we receive your email address and whatever you include in your message. We use it only to reply and to improve the app, and delete it when it's no longer needed.
Children
This app isn't directed at children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect information from them.
Your choices and rights
Deleting the app removes the information it stored on your device. Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct or delete information we hold about you; email us and we'll help.
Changes
If we change this policy, we'll update the date at the top of this page. If a change is significant, we'll let you know in the app.
