Hey there! πŸ‘‹

I'm Priit, a fellow ham radio operator who built QSL Buddy as a solo indie project for the community. This isn't a big corporation β€” just me, trying to make QSO logging easier for everyone. Here's what you need to know about your data.

1. What I Collect

QSL Buddy collects:

  • Account Info: When you sign in with Google, I receive your name, email, and profile picture.
  • QSO Logs: Callsigns, dates, times, frequencies, modes, signal reports, and grid locators you enter.
  • Voice Memos: Audio recordings you create for QSO logging.
  • Settings: Your callsign, grid locator, and default band preferences.

2. How I Use Your Data

Simple β€” I use your data to:

  • Make QSL Buddy work for you
  • Sync your logs across devices
  • Store your voice memos
  • Improve the app based on how it's used

That's it. No ads, no selling your data, no creepy tracking.

3. Data Storage

Your data is stored securely on DigitalOcean servers with SSL encryption. Voice memos are kept in encrypted cloud storage. Everything travels over HTTPS.

4. Data Sharing

I don't sell or share your data. Period. The only exceptions are if required by law (which has never happened and I hope never will).

5. Your Rights

You can:

  • Export your QSO logs anytime (ADIF format)
  • Delete your account and all data
  • Ask me what data I have about you

6. Guest Mode

If you use QSL Buddy without signing in, everything stays on your device. I don't see it, I can't access it, it's 100% yours.

7. Questions?

Hit me up at [email protected] β€” I'm happy to chat!
