Privacy Policy

1. Overview

Welcome to our application (“Service”). We understand that location-based tools rely on trust, and your trust matters to us. This Privacy Policy explains—plainly and transparently—what information we collect, why we gather it, and how you stay in control.
If you continue using the Service, you agree to the practices described here.

2. Information We Collect

We collect only what is necessary to operate core features.

2.1 Information You Provide

• Account details such as name, phone number, or email
  
• Optional profile additions like photo, nickname, or emergency contact info
  
• Feedback, support requests, or other content you send to us
  

2.2 Location & Movement Information

To deliver features like real-time positioning, arrival notifications, and shared safety zones, we may collect:

• GPS coordinates
  
• Movement patterns (speed, route segments)
  
• Wi-Fi or network-based location estimates
  

This data is collected only with permission and only when necessary for the feature you’re using.

2.3 Automatic Device Data

We automatically gather technical details including:

• Device model, OS, unique identifiers
  
• App interactions, screen usage, session length
  
• Error logs and diagnostics to help us identify issues
  

2.4 Communications

Messages exchanged inside the app may be temporarily stored for delivery or troubleshooting.

3. Why We Use the Data

We use your information for the following purposes:

• To provide tracking, alerts, and activity history
  
• To maintain security and prevent misuse
  
• To enhance performance and reliability
  
• To send essential operational notifications (not marketing by default)
  
• To offer customer support
  We do not sell or rent your personal data.
  

4. Data Sharing

We may share data only in the following scenarios:

4.1 Service Providers

Trusted vendors supporting hosting, analytics, crash monitoring, or notifications.

4.2 Legal Compliance

If required to meet legal obligations or respond to lawful requests.

4.3 With Your Consent

Certain features (like sharing your location with another user or group) only activate when you choose to enable them.

We require all partners to follow strong privacy and security standards.

5. Your Control & Choices

Depending on your region, you may:

• Access or export your data
  
• Request corrections
  
• Ask us to delete your account
  
• Turn location sharing on or off
  
• Withdraw previously granted permissions
  
• Object to certain processing
  

To exercise these rights, contact us anytime.

6. Data Security

We apply industry-standard protections (encryption, restricted access, secure servers).
Still, no digital platform can guarantee absolute security, and we encourage users to maintain good device security practices.

7. Data Retention

We keep personal data only as long as your account is active or required by law.
Location data is retained only for the duration needed to provide the associated feature.

8. Policy Updates

We may revise this Privacy Policy as features evolve. Updates will appear in the app with a new effective date. Continued use indicates acceptance.
