Work Trip (Työmatka) is a free app for planning drives, navigating and keeping a driving log. It has no account, no ads and no analytics. Location is used in the background only during a drive, when an ongoing notification is shown on the phone. Stops, working days and fill-ups stay on your phone. Only what the map, search and routing need goes over the network.
Stops and routes, saved addresses, working days, odometer readings, fill-ups and their photos, additional notes you write, your vehicles, driving times between stops and stop durations, reminder settings and the addresses of selected Bluetooth devices. Location is used while the app is in use or a drive is under way; the driven route is not stored.
The data is not included in Google's cloud backup. You can export it to a file in the settings, and that file is then under your control. Uninstalling the app deletes the data from the phone, but not reports sent to the server.
If a stop is a customer's address, it is your responsibility to make sure you may process it. The app's reports are a tool: you are responsible for your bookkeeping and for whether they meet, for example, the requirements of the Finnish Tax Administration.
Each service sees the phone's IP address unless stated otherwise.
| Service | Purpose | What is sent |
|---|---|---|
| Valhalla and OSRM, FOSSGIS e.V. (valhalla1.openstreetmap.de, routing.openstreetmap.de) | Routing and navigation | Current location as the start point and stop coordinates, and the app's name and version. Location is also sent during a drive when the route updates and when the driving time to a place is calculated. The server logs route requests. |
| OpenFreeMap (tiles.openfreemap.org) | Map tiles | The map area you view |
| The app's own server, Cloudflare (poi.jrs8205.com) | Map places, business and address search | Map area, search text, location rounded to about a kilometre and the point of the selected place. The server stores neither searches nor IP addresses; the IP address is used momentarily to limit the request rate. |
| Digitransit, HSL (through the server) | Address search | Search text, location rounded to about a kilometre and the point of the selected place. Your IP address is not passed on to Digitransit. |
| Photon, komoot (photon.komoot.io) | Fallback search if Digitransit does not answer or finds nothing | Search text, location rounded to about a kilometre and the point of the selected place |
Addresses you add as stops are therefore sent to the routing service as coordinates.
If you report a correction to a place, the server stores the place, the reported information, the time and a random device code. The IP address is not stored. The report is shown to others without the code. The device code is removed from the report after 12 months, after which the report remains with no link to the device. You can delete reports made with this device's code in the settings. The app then gets a new code, and the old code stays on the server for at most 7 days without any reports, so that a report still on its way is not stored with it. If you uninstall the app or clear its data, the code is lost, so delete your reports first.
Providing the app's functions at your request (map, search, routing) and the legitimate interest of keeping map place data up to date (reports). You control the location permission on the phone and can withdraw it at any time.
Cloudflare is a US company that operates globally, so a request may pass through a server outside the EU. For transfers Cloudflare uses the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework and, where needed, the EU standard contractual clauses (Cloudflare's data processing terms).
You have the right to information about the processing, to ask for correction or erasure and to object to the processing. As there is no account, reports cannot be linked to you without the device code: the easiest way is to delete them in the settings. You can lodge a complaint with the Finnish Data Protection Ombudsman (tietosuoja.fi).
