Privacy
Last updated: 22 August 2026
Errand Run holds errands, places and opening hours. That is personal in a quiet way — it says where you go and when you are free — so the rule here is simple: the data is yours, it is used only to run the app for you, and it is never shared with anyone else.
The current version of the app keeps everything on your phone. There is no account, no sign-up and no sync. Nothing you enter is sent to us, and there is nothing on our side to look at, because none of it ever leaves the device.
The rest of this page describes exactly what that means, and what the app does and does not ask of your phone.
No advertising. No analytics. No trackers. No profiling. Nothing sold or shared with third parties, ever. There is no advertising identifier, no third-party SDK and no tracking pixel anywhere in the app or on this site.
Who is responsible
The developer of Errand Run runs this service and decides how the data described below is handled. Questions, requests and complaints: support@runoferrandapp.site.
What is stored
What you put into the app, kept on your phone
- Errands: title, category, how long you expect them to take, deadline, priority, documents to bring, notes, shopping items, who a task is delegated to.
- Places: name, address, opening hours, lunch breaks, last entry time, parking difficulty, your queue estimate and notes. If an address was located on the map, its coordinates.
- Free windows: days and times you are available, and the points a window starts and ends at.
- Runs: the routes that were planned and how they went.
- Measured visits: how long a visit was expected to take and how long it took.
- Wasted trips: the place, the date and why the trip was for nothing.
- Travel times between your points, and your settings: home and work address, travel mode, walking pace, buffer, reminder preferences.
Photos stay on your phone. A photo attached to a place is stored on the device only. It is never uploaded, and it does not appear on another device.
What is never collected
- Your location is never tracked. The app has no background location access and does not follow your movements.
- Your contacts, calendar, photo library and files are never read or uploaded.
- No behavioural analytics, no usage statistics, no crash reporting to a third party.
- No payment details of any kind.
The map service
To turn an address into a point on a map and to work out the real travel time between two stops, the app asks the map service built into your phone. That request is made by your device and is handled under Apple's privacy policy, not this one. It happens once per address, the answer is stored so the same question is not asked twice, and you can enter travel times by hand instead — everything else in the app works without it.
Where it is stored, and for how long
On your phone, in the app's own storage, and nowhere else. It stays until you delete it. There is no copy on a server, so there is nothing for us to keep, hand over or lose.
Deleting it. Any single errand, place or window can be deleted in the app. Settings → Data → Delete All App Data removes everything at once. Deleting the app from the phone removes it too — so export first if you want to keep it: Settings → Data → Export Data writes it out as CSV and a text summary.
How the data is protected
- It never leaves the device, which removes most of the ways data goes missing.
- It sits in the app's own container, which iOS keeps separate from other apps.
- It is covered by your phone's own encryption while the device is locked.
- Reminders are scheduled locally by iOS. Their text never leaves the phone.
Your rights
- See your data — it is all visible in the app; Settings → Data → Export Data writes it out as CSV and a text summary.
- Correct it — every field is editable in the app.
- Delete it — individual items, or everything at once, at any time, on the device itself. No request to us is needed, and none is possible.
- Ask a question or object — write to support@runoferrandapp.site. Requests are answered as soon as they can be.
Children
Errand Run is a planning tool for adults running household errands. It is not directed at children and is not designed to collect anything from them.
Changes to this page
If what the app stores changes, this page changes with it and the date at the top moves. Material changes are shown in the app before they take effect.
