Privacy Policy for DriveCare

Last updated: July 6, 2026

DriveCare ("we", "our", "the app") is a vehicle maintenance tracking app. This policy explains what information the app collects, how it is used, and how you can control or delete it.

1. Information We Collect

Data Purpose Where it's stored
Email address & password Creating and signing in to your account Firebase Authentication (Google Cloud)
Vehicle details (nickname, model, plate number, year, fuel type, service frequency) Displaying and organizing your vehicles inside the app Cloud Firestore (Google Cloud), linked to your account
Service logs, fuel logs, and expense entries Tracking maintenance history and costs you choose to log Cloud Firestore (Google Cloud), linked to your account
Vehicle photos Letting you attach a photo to a vehicle profile Cloud Firestore (Google Cloud), linked to your account
Document files (e.g. insurance, RC book, PUC certificate) Storing scanned copies or photos of vehicle documents you upload Your own Google Drive — DriveCare does not store the file itself on its own servers. Only the file name, type, and expiry date are stored in Firestore.

2. Google Drive Access

If you choose to upload documents, DriveCare requests limited access to your Google Drive using the drive.file scope. This scope only allows the app to create and access files that DriveCare itself has created in your Drive — it cannot see, read, or modify any other files already in your Google Drive account. You can revoke this access at any time from your Google Account permissions page.

3. Photo Access

When you attach a photo to a vehicle or document, DriveCare uses your device's built-in photo picker. The app does not receive access to your full photo library — only the specific photo you select is shared with the app.

4. How We Use Your Information

We do not sell your data. We do not use your data for advertising. We do not share your data with third parties except the infrastructure providers listed below, which process data solely to operate the app.

5. Third-Party Services

6. Data Retention

Your data is retained as long as your account exists. If you delete a vehicle, its associated service logs, fuel logs, expenses, and document references are deleted along with it. Files stored in your Google Drive remain in your Drive even if removed from the app's Firestore records, unless the app explicitly deletes the file from Drive as part of a delete action.

7. Deleting Your Account and Data

You can request deletion of your account and all associated data (vehicles, service logs, fuel logs, expenses, and document metadata) directly from the app: go to Profile → Delete Account. This permanently removes your data from our systems and cannot be undone.

If you are unable to access the app, you can request deletion by emailing us at the address below with the email address associated with your account.

8. Children's Privacy

DriveCare is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect data from children under 13.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date.
