Turn-In Window · Last updated September 26, 2026

Turn-In Window is a cook-team planning tool used at barbecue contests. This page explains, in plain terms, exactly what the app does and does not do with your information.

01 · The short version

No collection Turn-In Window does not collect, transmit, sell, or share any personal data. It has no account system, no analytics, no advertising, and no network connection of any kind. Everything you enter stays on your device.

02 · What stays on your device

The app stores the following information locally, inside the app's own storage area on your iPhone or iPad:

None of this leaves your device. There is no server that Turn-In Window talks to, and no third party ever receives it.

03 · Camera and photo library

PermissionWhy it's requestedWhat happens to the result
CameraTo photograph a finished turn-in box for your recordsThe photo is saved only inside the app's local storage, tied to that contest
Photo LibraryTo attach an existing photo of a box to a contestThe app receives only the image you pick; it does not browse your library

04 · Notifications

If you turn on alerts, Turn-In Window schedules local notifications on your own device — for example, a reminder before the brisket goes on the pit, or when a turn-in window opens. These reminders are generated and delivered entirely on-device. No notification data is sent to, or through, any external service.

05 · Data collected by the app

Data Not Collected. Turn-In Window does not collect any data about you, and none is linked to your identity or used to track you across apps or websites.

06 · Third parties

Turn-In Window includes no third-party analytics kits, advertising networks, or tracking libraries of any kind. There is nothing to opt out of, because nothing is ever collected in the first place.

07 · Children's privacy

Turn-In Window is a planning tool for barbecue contest cook teams and is not directed at children. Since the app collects no data at all, there is no personal information of any user — child or adult — held anywhere outside the device.

08 · Deleting your data

Deleting the app removes everything it stored. You can also clear all contest data at any time from Season → Settings → Erase everything, without needing to contact anyone.

09 · Changes to this policy

If this policy ever changes, the updated version will be published at this same address with a new "last updated" date above.
