Privacy

No account required. Your journal is yours.

Fishing does not need an audience. You can keep a record of your time on the water without signing up for anything and without posting any of it.

The short version

The full policy is below. These are the parts most people want to know.

Read the privacy policy

  • No account, email, or password
  • No public profile, feed, followers, or leaderboards
  • Your journal is saved on your device and works offline
  • It syncs through your own private iCloud. We never see it.
  • No ads and no tracking
  • No notifications

Built into the app

Quiet about where you fish.

Privacy is not only a policy page. It shows up in the app, in the places you would worry about.

  • Spots and routes stay private unless you choose to share a trip
  • Logging weather sends only the water’s general location to Apple
  • Trip notes stay out of books unless you turn them on
  • Maps in recaps and books mark the general location of a water, not the spots you fished
  • Including the people you fished with is your choice
Make a Book sheet: choose a recap or a keepsake, which outings go in, whether to include trip notes and the people you fished with, a page size of 8 inch square, 10 inch square, Letter, or A4, and which photos to include, with an Export button
Make a Book: trip notes are off unless you turn them on, because notes can name places.

Cast Your Line Privacy Policy

Last updated: October 4, 2026

This policy explains how Cast Your Line (“the app”), made by Quiet Tools LLC (“Quiet Tools,” “we,” “us”), handles your information. The short version: the app does not require an account, does not show ads, does not track you, and does not send your journal to us.

Information you add

Cast Your Line stores the content you choose to enter, including trips, catches, species, photos, notes, places, companions, conditions, lures and bait, and recorded routes. This information is used only to provide the app’s features, such as your history, maps, yearly recaps, and photo books.

Where your data is stored

Your journal is stored on your device. Quiet Tools does not operate servers that receive or store your journal entries, and we cannot see them.

iCloud sync

If you are signed in to iCloud on your device, sync is on by default. Your journal data is stored in your private iCloud account by Apple so it can appear on your other devices. That data is handled under your Apple account settings and Apple’s Privacy Policy. Quiet Tools does not have access to your iCloud data.

Location and GPS routes

Cast Your Line asks for location access only to provide location features you choose to use, such as recording a GPS route during a trip, marking catch locations, or saving a place. Route tracking is optional and runs only while you have it turned on. Location data is saved in your journal, not sent to Quiet Tools. You can change location permission at any time in your device’s Settings.

Maps are displayed using Apple’s mapping services, which may receive the map area being viewed in order to display map tiles, as described in Apple’s privacy policy.

Weather

If you choose to log the weather for a trip, the app sends the general location of that water to Apple’s weather service to retrieve current conditions. It does not send your exact spots or recorded routes. Weather data is provided by Apple Weather. You can also enter conditions by hand.

Photos

Photos you add are saved as part of your journal. The app accesses your photo library or camera only when you choose to add a photo, and only the photos you select.

Sharing, exports, and photo books

Nothing is shared unless you share it. When you export, print, or share a trip, recap, or photo book PDF, the app or service you choose will receive that content, and its own privacy practices apply. Data on your device may also be included in device backups according to your Apple settings.

No accounts, ads, or tracking

Cast Your Line does not require you to create an account. It does not include advertising, third-party ad or analytics SDKs, or behavioral tracking, and Quiet Tools does not sell, rent, or share your personal information. If you opt in to share diagnostics with developers in your device settings, Apple may provide us with anonymous crash reports and usage statistics.

Purchases

Any in-app purchases are processed by Apple through the App Store. Quiet Tools does not receive your payment details. The app may check your purchase status with Apple to unlock features you have bought. If you choose the monthly subscription, it renews through your Apple account until you cancel it in your App Store subscription settings.

Support messages

If you contact support by email or through the support form, we receive the information you choose to send, such as your name, email address, device details, and message. Messages sent through the website form are processed by FormSubmit and delivered to us by email. We use this information only to respond to you. Please don’t send sensitive information.

Children

Cast Your Line is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Your choices

You can edit or delete any entry in the app at any time. Deleting the app removes its data from that device. If you use iCloud sync, you can manage or delete synced data through your iCloud settings. Location and photo permissions can be changed in your device’s Settings.

Changes and contact

We may update this policy if the app’s features or privacy practices change. The current version will always be available on this page, with the date it was last updated.
