KSafeTrip(개인정보처리방침)

Effective date: November 3, 2026

K-Safe Trip ("the app") is a travel guide for visitors to Korea, made by an independent developer, Jun Hyuk Jang. This policy explains what happens to your information when you use the app.

Summary

No account. You never sign up or log in.
No ads, no analytics, no tracking. The app contains no advertising or analytics SDKs.
Your data stays on your iPhone. The developer does not receive, store, share or sell any personal data.

Information used on your device

What	Why	Where it stays
Location (only if you allow "While Using the App")	To show local weather and, in an emergency, your address in Korean	Used on your iPhone; see "Apple services". Never stored by the app.
Hotel address you type	To show it to taxi drivers	Saved only on your iPhone
Medical info card (blood type, conditions, medicines, notes, emergency contact name and phone number)	To show it to medical staff in Korean	Saved only on your iPhone. Never shared with the widget or anyone else.
Symptoms you pick	To make a Korean card for a pharmacy or doctor	Used only on your iPhone
Language, city, saved cards, allergy and diet choices, your own phrases, saved places, checklists	To remember your settings	Saved only on your iPhone
Camera (only when you open "Read signs")	To read Korean text on signs and menus	Text is recognized on your iPhone. Images are not saved or sent.
Photos you pick in "Read signs"	To read Korean text in that one photo	Read on your iPhone only. The app sees only the photo you choose and does not keep it.
Trip expenses and the exchange rate you type	To total your spending	Saved only on your iPhone. You can delete them at any time.
Emergency alert text you paste	To explain a Korean emergency alert	Used only on your iPhone, not saved

The Home Screen widget can show your hotel address. To do this, the app shares only your hotel address and language with the widget on the same iPhone.

You can turn location or camera access off at any time in Settings › K-Safe Trip. All features still work by choosing a city, and signs can also be read from a photo. Deleting the app deletes all of this data.

Apple services

Weather comes from Apple WeatherKit. To get the forecast, your approximate location (or the city you chose) is sent to Apple.
Address lookup ("Show my location in Korean") uses Apple's geocoding service.
Korean speech is generated on your iPhone by iOS.
Apple's handling of this information is described in Apple's privacy policy.

Optional tip (in-app purchase)

You can leave an optional tip. Apple processes the payment. The developer never sees your name, payment details or Apple Account. Apple only provides anonymous sales totals.

Map apps and phone calls

"Find nearby" and restaurant pages open the map app you choose (Naver Map, Kakao Map or Apple Maps) with a Korean search word or place. K-Safe Trip does not send your location. The map app may use your location under its own privacy policy.
The SOS buttons open your iPhone's phone app to call 112, 119 or 1330.
