Raven Scout Privacy Policy

How Raven Scout collects, uses, shares, and protects information when you use the app.

Last updated: April 2026

Overview

Raven Scout is a mobile hunting companion app that uses AI to analyze in-app map captures and hunt context. This policy explains what information is collected, where it is stored, which services process it, and how deletion works.

Information We Collect

  • Account information, including email, optional display name, a bcrypt password hash for email/password accounts, or a Google OAuth subject id for Google sign-in.
  • Hunt data, including species, weapon, method, hunt date, time window, wind, GPS coordinates when you choose to provide them, in-app map captures, overlay edits, saved markers, known hunt locations, and AI analysis output.
  • Device and diagnostic data, including platform, OS version, app version, anonymous RevenueCat device id, and non-fatal client events such as storage failures or cloud-sync retries. Some diagnostic events may be associated with your account to support troubleshooting.
  • Billing entitlement data, including subscription tier and renewal date from RevenueCat. Apple and Google will handle payment instruments; Raven Scout never receives your card number.

How We Use Information

  • To create, save, reopen, and sync hunt analyses.
  • To generate hunt-specific analysis outputs based on the data you provide, such as species, weapon, wind, weather, GPS, selected maps, and known hunt locations.
  • For usage accounting for Hunt Analytics credits and subscription limits across Trial, Core, Pro, rollover, and Extra Hunt Analytics.
  • To provide weather and wind auto-fill for eligible Core and Pro hunts.
  • To provide support, troubleshoot errors, diagnose reliability issues, and protect the service from abuse.

What We Do Not Collect

  • Contacts, SMS, call logs, calendar entries, or files outside Raven Scout.
  • Background location. Precise location is only collected when you actively create or edit a hunt and choose to provide it.
  • Advertising identifiers. Raven Scout does not include ads or ad-network SDKs.
  • Your plaintext password, Google password, or payment card number.

Where Data Lives

  • Account records, hunt metadata, overlay edits, and entitlement state are stored in MongoDB.
  • Saved hunt data and in-app map captures remain available locally.
  • Eligible plans may back up hunt data and in-app map captures to private cloud storage using user-scoped access.
  • Password reset email is delivered through Microsoft Graph from support@asgardsolution.io.

Third-Party Processors

  • OpenAI receives compressed in-app map captures and hunt selections only when you explicitly initiate an analysis, to produce overlays, ranked setups, and tactical briefs.
  • MapTiler receives anonymous tile requests for the interactive map.
  • WeatherAPI.com receives latitude, longitude, and date for eligible weather and wind auto-fill.
  • RevenueCat processes Google Play entitlement state and Apple App Store entitlement state.
  • MongoDB stores account and hunt records, and AWS S3 stores eligible cloud-backed map captures.

These processors do not receive your password or billing instrument from Raven Scout.

Security Controls

  • All Raven Scout API traffic uses HTTPS/TLS.
  • Passwords are salted and hashed with bcrypt; plaintext passwords are never stored.
  • API routes that access user data require a valid session token.
  • Cloud access is user-scoped. A token for one account cannot access another user's cloud-backed map captures.
  • MongoDB and S3 at-rest encryption follow the providers' default encryption for the deployed regions.

Data Deletion

You may delete individual hunts in the app. To delete your account, hunts, and eligible cloud-backed map captures, use Profile → Account → Delete account or see Raven Scout Data Deletion. Active Google Play subscriptions and Apple App Store subscriptions must be cancelled separately in your store account.
