Profile & Privacy Rules

Your pilot profile in Infinite Pilot Logbook is used throughout the app to connect your logbook activity, certificates, and statistics to your identity. IPL also includes a dedicated Privacy Rules screen, allowing you to control what basic information other IPL members may see when searching for you.

Accessing Your Profile

You can access your profile from:

More → Settings → Profile

Your profile represents you as a pilot inside IPL, and is used when logging flights, tracking qualifications, building statistics, and managing your personal database.

Profile Information

Inside the Profile screen, you can review or edit key fields such as:

  • Name

  • Role

  • Organization or airline

  • Other personal details used across IPL

Filling in these fields improves consistency across imports, crew selections, certificate tracking, and statistics.

Activity Summary

Just below your profile picture, IPL displays a summary bar showing your overall logbook activity, such as:

  • Total flight and simulator time

  • Number of entries logged

Tapping this summary opens a dedicated statistics view linked to your pilot profile.

Logout and Delete Account

At the bottom of the Profile screen, IPL also provides two account actions:

Logout

The Logout option allows you to sign out of your current account.

Most users will rarely need this, but it can be useful if you:

  • Use multiple accounts (for example a secondary test profile)

  • Want to sign in again on the same device

Delete Account

The Delete Account option allows you to request full removal of your IPL account and associated server data.

To prevent accidental loss, IPL does not immediately erase your account automatically.

Instead:

  • Your account is first deactivated and suspended

  • A team member confirms the deletion request

  • Your data is then permanently removed from IPL servers once confirmed

This process ensures account deletion remains secure and intentional.

If you have questions about deletion or data removal, you can contact IPL support from the Help section.

Privacy Rules: Visibility in IPL Member Search

Infinite Pilot Logbook includes an optional feature that helps users find existing IPL members when adding people to their database.

In the People module, when tapping + and typing a name, IPL may display a dedicated section:

IPL Members

This allows pilots to quickly add other members without having to recreate basic information manually.

The Privacy Rules screen controls what information from your profile may appear in those search results.

You can access it from:

More → Settings → Privacy Rules

What Information Can Be Shared

The Privacy Rules screen allows you to choose which profile fields may be visible to other IPL members when they search for you.

You can control the visibility of:

  • Your name

  • Your date of birth

  • Your nationality

  • Your organization or company

  • Your crew ID

  • Your licence number

  • Your profile photo

  • Your phone number

  • Your email address

By default, IPL shares:

  • Name

  • Photo

  • Organization

This makes member identification clearer while still limiting the information to basic public profile fields.

Important Notes

  • Privacy Rules only apply to IPL Member search results when another user adds a person.

  • This does not affect your private logbook, entries, totals, or certificates.

  • You can change these settings at any time from the Settings screen.

IPL is designed to keep your logbook data private while still allowing lightweight community features when enabled.

Best Practice

If you prefer not to be discoverable with your full profile details, you may adjust your Privacy Rules early during setup.

This ensures IPL behaves exactly as you expect when other members search for pilots in their People database.
