To The Moon Privacy Policy

To The Moon ("the App") is a free, ad-supported beginner run-training application with an optional cumulative-distance milestone journey. This page explains how the App handles information when you use it. To The Moon is designed to be private and offline-first: your runs, routes and settings stay on your device.

Information Collection And Use

The App does not require an account, a login, or any personal details to use. We do not collect, store, or transmit personally identifiable information about you.

Everything the App records - your training progress, session history, routes and settings - is stored only on your device, in a local database (SQLite). This content is never uploaded to us or to any server, and there is no cloud sync or backup of any kind. Because this data stays on your device, uninstalling the App permanently removes it.

Location And Run Tracking

GPS run tracking is optional and stays off until you turn it on for a run. When it is on, the App reads your device location (approximate and precise) only while a run is in progress - shown by an ongoing notification - to measure your distance and pace and to draw that session's route. Your location is used entirely on your device for that purpose. It is never shared with us or any third party and is never used for advertising. The App uses while-in-use location only and does not track your location in the background.

Health And Fitness Data

To The Moon is a fitness training tool, not a medical device, and makes no medical or health claims.

Health Connect (optional): if you choose to connect Health Connect, the App reads two types of health and fitness data from it - your running and walking exercise sessions and their distance - as recorded by other apps or a wearable. This access is read-only (the App never writes to Health Connect), is off until you turn it on, and is used only to add those runs' distance to your on-device milestone journey and to show the runs in your in-app history. This data is processed entirely on your device: it is never transmitted to us or any server, never shared with any third party, never sold, and never used for advertising. You can disconnect at any time in the App, and you can revoke the App's Health Connect access at any time in Android's Health Connect settings. The App does not collect any other health or biometric data such as heart rate, steps, sleep or body measurements.

Exports

The App can export a run as a GPX file or a PDF summary. Exports are created only at your request and are saved or shared only through the method you choose, using your device's standard share sheet. We do not receive your exports.

Third-party Services

The App uses the following third-party services that may collect information:

Google AdMob - used to display advertisements. AdMob may collect device identifiers (including the advertising ID), IP address, and usage data to serve personalised or non-personalised ads. See Google's privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy Google Play Services - required for advertising and core functionality on Android devices. See: https://policies.google.com/privacy

Advertising And Consent

The App displays advertisements provided by Google AdMob, including a banner, occasional full-screen interstitials at natural breaks (finishing a session, opening the packs screen, or exporting a run - never during a run), and optional rewarded videos that open all milestone packs and permanently unlock training programs and open a 24-hour window with no full-screen ads. Ads may use device identifiers (including the advertising ID) to provide relevant advertising. Your location and run data are never sent to ad networks. Where required (for example, for users in the European Economic Area and the United Kingdom), the App uses Google's User Messaging Platform (UMP) to request consent before serving personalised ads. You can change your choice at any time, and you can opt out of personalised advertising through your device settings under Google > Ads > Opt out of Ads Personalisation.

Permissions Used

Network and internet access - to display ads through Google AdMob. Location (precise and approximate) - only while you have run tracking turned on, as described above. Foreground service (location) - to keep a run measuring accurately while the App is in the background during that run, with an ongoing notification. Notifications - for run-day reminders and the run-tracking notification. Health Connect (Exercise and Distance) - read-only access to your running and walking workouts, and only if you connect Health Connect, as described above. The App does not request contacts, microphone, or camera permissions, and does not use background location.

Log Data

In the event of an error, the App may collect diagnostic data ("Log Data") through third-party services. This Log Data may include your device name, operating system version, the configuration of the App, the time and date of use, and other statistics.

Links To Other Sites

The App may contain links to external websites. These external sites are not operated by us, and we advise you to review their privacy policies. We have no control over the content or practices of any third-party sites or services.

Children's Privacy

The App is intended for a general audience and is not directed to children. It does not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we discover that a child under 13 has provided personal information, we will delete it immediately.

Changes To This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date. You are advised to review this page periodically.

If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy, please contact us via the developer email listed on the Google Play Store listing for To The Moon.

How to Budget for a Trip: A Simple, Step-by-Step Guide

Image
Everyone means to travel on a budget. Then the flights cost more than you planned, three “small” dinners quietly blow a day’s spending, the currency changes at the border, and by the middle of the trip you genuinely have no idea whether you’re doing fine or heading for an overdraft. A travel budget isn’t about being tight — it’s about spending freely because you actually know where you stand. Here’s how to build one that survives contact with a real trip. In a hurry? Get a ballpark in ten seconds with our free travel budget calculator — pick a destination and a travel style and it estimates the total, with a full daily breakdown. Then read on for how to turn that number into a plan you’ll actually stick to. Step 1: Price the big rocks first Three or four costs make up the bulk of almost any trip: getting there (flights, trains), a bed each night (hotels, hostels, rentals), getting around (transfers, car hire, int...

Introducing Horizon Software

Horizon Software is a small, independent studio in New Zealand. We make little Android apps — the kind that do one thing, do it well, and then get out of your way. This is the first post on our new home, so it feels right to start with what we’re about. Small on purpose There’s a certain kind of app we love: the one that opens fast, shows you exactly what you came for, and doesn’t try to become your whole day. A picture from space. A moment from history. A quick quiz on the bus. Our apps are deliberately small — each one built around a single, clear idea. We’d rather make a handful of things that are genuinely good at one job than one thing that’s mediocre at everything. Free — and staying that way Every app we publish is free to download and free to use — no paywalls, no subscriptions, no features held hostage behind your credit card. A good little app should just work, for everyone. To keep it free, our apps car...

Street Cricket: A Road Trip Game for the Whole Car

Image
“Are we there yet?” has finally met its match. Street Cricket is a free Android game that turns any car journey into a game of cricket — no pitch, no bat, no gear, just your phone and the open road. Cricket for the car — no pitch required All the fun of a backyard game, none of the setup. Street Cricket takes the spirit of street and beach cricket and packs it into your phone, so a long drive or a boring wait suddenly has a game hiding inside it. Simple rules, genuinely fun The rules are quick to pick up and easy to teach, so nobody’s left reading an instruction manual while the fun happens without them. Within a minute everyone’s playing — and, usually, arguing good-naturedly about the score. Made for road trips and waiting rooms Street Cricket is built for exactly those in-between moments: the motorway stretch, the airport gate, the doctor’s waiting room, the queue that will not move. Whenever you need to turn dead tim...
