Privacy Policy
Last updated: July 19, 2026
RC Tuner (rctuner.com) helps radio-control hobbyists tune their cars. This policy explains what we collect, how we use it, and your rights. We keep things simple — your setups are yours.
1. What we collect
We only collect what we need to make RC Tuner work for you:
- Account info — your name and email, provided when you sign in via a third-party auth provider (see §3).
- Setups & garage data — the car setups, chassis, tires, ESC settings, and lap times you create or import.
- Telemetry — any telemetry data you upload from your ESC, timer, or radio.
- Preferences — UI choices like theme, language, and units.
2. Third-party authentication
We do not store passwords. Sign-in is handled through OAuth with:
- Google — reads your basic profile (name, email, avatar).
- GitHub — reads your basic profile (username, email).
You can revoke our access at any time from your Google or GitHub account settings.
3. Cookies and local storage
We use one small piece of local storage for your theme preference. Session cookies are used to keep you signed in. We do not use cookies for tracking or advertising.
4. Analytics
We do not currently run any third-party analytics (no Google Analytics, no Mixpanel, no Plausible). We may add anonymized, aggregate, opt-out analytics in the future — individual setups and lap times will never be included.
5. We will never sell your data
Your setups, telemetry, and garage data are yours. We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information or your setups to any third party. Ever.
We may use anonymized, aggregated statistics (e.g. "average camber setting for TC-class cars") to improve the product. You can opt out in your account settings.
6. Alpha software disclaimer
RC Tuner is alpha software. Data loss can happen. Please keep local backups of setups you care about. We are working hard toward a stable release.
7. Your rights
You can:
- Export all of your data (setups, telemetry, garage) via the Setup Export tool.
- Request deletion of your account by contacting us.
- Revoke OAuth access from your Google or GitHub account at any time.
8. Contact
Questions, feedback, data requests, or bug reports:
9. Changes to this policy
We'll keep this page up to date. Material changes will be called out in the RC Tuner changelog and, where we have your email, we'll notify you.
