Privacy policy

Last updated November 8, 2026. This covers Leroy's private beta.

Leroy is a fishing app in private testing, made by Kevin Soderholm in Minnesota. Questions or requests: support@leroyfishing.com.

What Leroy keeps

• Account: a nickname and your sign-ins. No email address or real name is needed.
• Fishing activity: your catch and miss reports (species, size, lure or bait, notes), spot ratings, when and where they happened, and the conditions at the time.
• Location: your phone's location while a trip is active, including in the background if you allow it, to show where you are, distances to spots and to time alerts. Location isn't collected when no trip is active.
• Voice: what you say about a catch is turned into text on your phone. The text is saved with the trip. Audio is never recorded or sent to us.
• Diagnostics: server error logs, and crash reports Apple's TestFlight shares with us. Leroy's server doesn't keep a log of each request.

How it's used

To build your plans and recommendations, to learn from your own catches, and to fix problems. There is no advertising and no tracking across other apps or websites.

Your spots stay private

Your locations, trips and catches are never shown to other anglers. Any learning pooled across anglers uses lake-level patterns only (for example, which depths are producing), never locations.

Sharing

We don't sell your data. Leroy runs on Microsoft Azure, which hosts the app and its database for us. When you type a place to search, it's looked up through the U.S. Census geocoder, without anything that identifies you. Weather comes from Open-Meteo for the lake, not your position. A trip report you choose to send someone contains no coordinates or spot names.

Keeping and deleting

• You can delete your account in the app at any time (person icon, then Delete account), or email us. That deletes your account, trips, tracks, catches, voice notes and spot ratings.
• Otherwise, during the beta full trip tracks are kept until 90 days after the beta ends, to fix problems with trip replays and arrival alerts. Then they're reduced to the spots you fished, or deleted.

Your choices

You can turn off location, microphone or speech recognition for Leroy in your phone's Settings; some features won't work without them.

Children

Leroy isn't intended for children under 13.

Changes

We'll tell testers about changes to this policy.
