1. Information We Collect
Account data. When you register we collect your email address and, if you sign up via Apple or Google, your name as provided by those platforms.
Preferences & usage. We store your chosen test centre, optional test date, current subscription or purchase status, and in-app settings (e.g. voice guidance preferences).
Location data. Location is processed on-device while you practise a route and is not transmitted to our servers unless you explicitly submit a pass report or opt in to anonymous route analytics.
Payment data. Web payments are handled by Stripe. App Store and Google Play purchases are handled by Apple and Google respectively, with entitlement management via RevenueCat. We do not store card numbers or full payment details on our servers.
Technical data. We automatically collect IP address, browser type, operating system, referring URLs, and pages visited when you use the web app. Mobile crash reports may be captured by Sentry.
Communications. If you contact us by email we retain a record of that correspondence.

We process your data for the following purposes:
- To create and manage your account;
- To deliver the Service, including route data, voice guidance, and maps;
- To process subscription payments and verify entitlements;
- To send transactional emails (e.g. purchase confirmations, password resets);

Your data is stored on Supabase infrastructure hosted within the European Union. We apply encryption in transit (TLS) and at rest, role-based access controls, and regular security reviews. No method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure; we cannot guarantee absolute security but take commercially reasonable steps to protect your information.

- Service providers— Supabase (database & auth), Stripe (payments), RevenueCat (subscription management), Sentry (crash reporting), Google Analytics (web analytics), Mapbox (maps), and Postmark (transactional email). Each is bound by a data processing agreement.
- Business transfers — in the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your data may be transferred as part of that transaction.
- Legal obligations — we may disclose data when required by law, court order, or to protect our rights and the safety of our users.
