Vehicle and usage data: vehicle profiles, refuel records, maintenance logs, parts inventory, and any notes or attachments you add.

Usage and device data: how you use the app (e.g. features used, session duration) and basic device/technical information to operate and improve the Service.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

Provide, maintain, and improve the Service.

Authenticate your account and communicate with you (e.g. account or security notices).

Process payments and manage subscriptions, where applicable.

Analyse usage to improve performance, fix bugs, and develop new features.

3. Data Sharing and Disclosure

We do not sell your personal data. We may share your information only in these limited circumstances:

In connection with a merger, sale, or transfer of assets, with notice and continued protection of your data as described in this policy.

We also publish aggregated, anonymous statistics by brand and model, such as maintenance cost, fuel consumption and cost per km, on the rankings page. These statistics combine the records of several users, are published only when at least three different accounts have the same brand or model, and never include number plates, dates or individual records.

We retain your account and vehicle data for as long as your account is active. If you delete your account or request deletion, we will remove or anonymise your personal data in accordance with our retention practices and applicable law, except where we must retain data for legal or legitimate business purposes.

5. Security

We use industry-standard measures to protect your data, including encryption in transit and at rest, secure authentication, and access controls. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure; we encourage you to use a strong password and keep your login details confidential.

6. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have the right to:

Access and receive a copy of your personal data.

Correct or update inaccurate data.

Request deletion of your data.

Object to or restrict certain processing.

Data portability: Your data belongs to you. Export to CSV or JSON anytime on any plan. PDF reports per car with PRO.

7. Cookies and Similar Technologies

We may use cookies, local storage, and similar technologies to maintain your session, remember preferences, and analyse usage. You can control cookies through your browser settings. Disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of the Service.

The Service is not directed at children under 16. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 16. If you believe we have collected such data, please contact us and we will take steps to delete it.

9. International Transfers

Your data may be processed in countries other than your own. We ensure appropriate safeguards (e.g. standard contractual clauses or adequacy decisions) are in place where required by applicable law.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will post the updated policy on this page and update the “Last updated” date. Material changes may be communicated by email or in-app notice. Continued use of the Service after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.

12. Advertising and Cookies (Google AdSense)

On the free tier of the Service we may display advertisements provided by Google AdSense. AdSense uses cookies and similar technologies to serve ads based on your visits to our site and other sites on the internet. These advertising cookies allow Google to show you relevant ads, measure ad performance, and help us fund the service.
