Your data: backup, export and deletion

What is stored

Your account details, your settings, every shift and expense you log, any receipts you attach, and any draft shift you have saved. That is all of it.

Who can read it

Only you. Access is enforced in the database itself with row-level security, so a record is readable and writable only by the account that owns it. This is not a filter applied by the app - it is a rule the database enforces, which is the difference between privacy and a promise.

Backup and export

• JSON backup - everything, including receipts, in one file you can restore from later.
• CSV - your Self Assessment figures, for an accountant or a spreadsheet.
• PDF - a readable tax-year summary.

In the app, the exports are on the Self Assessment screen and the shift log, and go to your phone's share sheet, so you can save them to Files or send them straight to an accountant.

Take a backup before anything significant, and keep it somewhere that is not the same device.

Deletion

Deleting your account removes your records, not just your login. Every table holding your data is covered, including drafts and receipts.

Clearing what you have logged without closing the account is a separate thing: More, then Your data, in the app, or Backup and export in your account on joltmile.com.

The full detail of what is held and why is in the Privacy Policy.

Working offline

JoltMile keeps a local cache and a write queue, so logging a shift in a car park with no signal works. The change is stored on the phone and syncs when you are back on data. A bar across the top of the app says when something is still waiting to go.
