FuelCheck helps you find the cheapest nearby fuel station. This page explains exactly what data it handles.
FuelCheck uses your device's precise location, with your permission, to center the map on your position and to calculate which stations are nearby. This location data is used entirely on your device — it is never sent to DFB Software's servers or to any third party, and it is not linked to your identity or used for tracking.
FuelCheck has no account system and no sign-in. Your favorite stations, price-alert thresholds, hidden/blacklisted stations, and notification preference are stored only in the app's local storage on your device and, because the app uses Apple's iCloud Key-Value Store, are synced via iCloud between your own devices — DFB Software never receives or has access to this data.
To show current fuel prices, FuelCheck fetches the public station and price list from DFB Software's own backend service. These requests do not include your location, your favorites, or any personal or device identifier — the app downloads the full current price list and does all nearby-station filtering and ranking locally on your device.
FuelCheck can optionally notify you when a favorite station's price drops below a threshold you set. This requires your explicit permission via Apple's standard system notification prompt, which only appears if you turn the feature on; you can withdraw permission at any time in iOS Settings.
FuelCheck contains no third-party advertising SDKs, analytics SDKs, or tracking of any kind. We don't use the App Tracking Transparency framework because we don't track you.
FuelCheck offers an optional one-time premium unlock ("FuelCheck Pro"), processed entirely by Apple through StoreKit. Payment details are handled by Apple under Apple's own privacy policy — DFB Software never sees or stores your payment information.
