Privacy
Last updated: 18 May 2026
Drinkkompassen is run by Joakim Jedholt in Stockholm, Sweden. We care about your privacy and collect as little data as we reasonably can. This policy sets out what we collect, why, and how to reach us if you have questions.
What the site collects
We use Plausible Analytics to count visits to drinkkompassen.app. Plausible is a privacy-friendly analytics tool. It does not set cookies and does not track individual visitors. We see aggregated figures such as page views, approximate country, browser and operating system. We do not see who you are, your name or your IP address.
Plausible is an EU company based in Germany. No data is transferred outside the EU. You can read more about how Plausible handles data at plausible.io/data-policy.
What the iOS app collects
The Drinkkompassen app for iPhone stores your cabinet, your favourites and your notes locally on the device. If you have iCloud enabled, Apple syncs this data between your devices through Apple CloudKit. We have no access to your CloudKit data. The sync happens directly between your device and Apple servers.
When you use the app's AI scanning to identify a bottle or recipe, the image and any extracted text are sent briefly to Anthropic (Claude API) for image analysis and text recognition. Images and text are deleted immediately after processing. Anthropic does not store the content permanently. More on how Anthropic handles data: anthropic.com/privacy.
If you choose to share a recipe with Community, the recipe becomes publicly visible to other users of the app. We do not share your name, email address or other personal information alongside the recipe. Recipes are reviewed before being published.
Beyond this, the app does not talk to any external servers to handle personal data. Recipe content and images from the catalogue are fetched from a content database, but we do not log who fetches what.
In-app purchases
Drinkkompassen Pro is a one-time purchase handled by Apple through the App Store. We do not receive or store payment information. Apple tells us a purchase has been made, but not who made it. Apple's privacy policy covers the purchase itself and can be found at apple.com/legal/privacy.
Age limit
Drinkkompassen is rated 17+ on the App Store due to alcohol-related content. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone under the age of 17. If we discover that we have collected data from someone under 17, it is deleted without delay.
Your rights
Under the GDPR you have the right to ask what data we hold about you and to have it corrected or deleted. Because we do not store personal data centrally, we have very little to hand over or erase in practice. If you would still like to get in touch, we are reachable at support@drinkkompassen.app.
Changes
If we update this policy we will change the date above. Larger changes will be communicated in the app or on the site.
