Privacy Policy

Last updated: February 23, 2026

Walk Away ("we," "our," or "the app") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your information when you use our mobile application.

Information We Collect

Walk Away is designed with privacy in mind. We collect minimal information to provide our service:

Vehicle Information You Enter: Make, model, year, asking price, mileage, condition, payment type, desire level, and zip code. This data is processed locally on your device and is not transmitted to our servers.
VIN Numbers: If you use the VIN scanner or manual entry feature, the VIN is sent to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) public API to decode vehicle details. We do not store or log VIN numbers.
Camera Access: If you choose to scan a VIN barcode, we request camera access. Camera data is used solely for barcode scanning and is not recorded, stored, or transmitted.
Purchase Information: In-app purchases are processed entirely through Apple's App Store. We do not collect or have access to your payment information, credit card details, or Apple ID.

How We Use Your Information

To calculate negotiation recommendations based on the vehicle details you provide
To decode VIN numbers into vehicle make, model, and year using the NHTSA public API
To manage your premium purchase status locally on your device

Data Storage

All vehicle data you enter is processed locally on your device. Your premium purchase status is stored locally using on-device storage. We do not maintain user accounts, and we do not store your data on external servers.

Third-Party Services

Walk Away uses the following third-party services:

Apple App Store: For processing in-app purchases. Apple's privacy policy governs their handling of purchase transactions.
NHTSA vPIC API: A free, public U.S. government API used to decode VIN numbers. No personal information is sent to this service—only the VIN number you provide. See NHTSA's website for more information.

Data Sharing

We do not sell, trade, rent, or share your personal information with third parties. We do not use analytics, advertising SDKs, or tracking tools.

Children's Privacy

Walk Away is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Data Retention

Since all data is processed and stored locally on your device, you can delete all app data at any time by uninstalling the application.

Your Rights

Since we do not collect or store personal data on our servers, there is no personal data for us to access, modify, or delete. All data remains on your device under your control.

Security

We take reasonable measures to protect the app and its functionality. Since data is processed locally on your device, it benefits from your device's built-in security features, including encryption and biometric protection.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected in the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Continued use of the app after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
