📍

Foreground only. Location is collected only while the app is open and in active use. We never collect location in the background.

Location is used to centre the map, load nearby posts, record your drive route, and calculate STW token rewards. Route points are linked to your User ID and visible only to you. You may delete any session at any time.

Map tiles and routing use OpenStreetMap and OSRM. Only anonymous coordinate pairs are sent — no account data or User IDs are ever included.

We share data only with the partners needed to run the app. No advertisers, data brokers, or analytics companies.

Supabase (AWS)

Hosts all backend data — auth, database, file storage, and real-time messaging. GDPR-compliant. Processes data only as instructed by us.

OpenStreetMap, OSRM & Nominatim

Map tiles, routing, and geocoding. Only anonymous coordinate pairs are sent — no personal data attached.

We may also disclose data if required by Pakistani law or government authorities, or to protect user safety. If StreetWise is acquired or restructured, you will be notified before your data moves to a new privacy policy.

🔒

We never sell your data. No advertising networks. No analytics SDKs. All vendors sign strict data protection agreements.

Your data is stored on Supabase infrastructure running on AWS, with servers primarily in the USA. Cross-border transfers are covered by GDPR-standard contractual clauses with Supabase, encryption at rest and in transit (TLS), and access-controlled AWS data centers.

We keep data only as long as needed to provide the service or meet legal obligations. Once no longer required, data is deleted or anonymized.

💡

Wallet transaction records are retained in anonymized form after account deletion for financial audit purposes. They cannot be linked back to your identity.

You can exercise these rights directly in the app or by contacting us. We respond within 30 days.

🗑

In-app account deletion is available in app settings. Deleting your account removes all associated personal data. Anonymized wallet records may be retained for audit purposes (see Section 7).

StreetWise requests only the Android permissions it needs. None are used for tracking across other apps.

LOCATION

Precise GPS for the map, nearby posts, and drive route tracking.
LOCATION
ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION
Fallback when precise GPS is unavailable or slow to acquire.
STORAGE
READ_MEDIA_IMAGES / READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE
Lets you pick photos from your gallery to attach to posts. Only images you explicitly select are uploaded.
NETWORK
INTERNET & ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE
Required for API calls, map tiles, and routing. Network state is checked to show offline/error states.

StreetWise is not intended for users under 13. We do not knowingly collect data from minors. If we discover a minor's account, we will delete it promptly. If you believe your child has signed up, contact us at maazmansoorb301@gmail.com.

We take appropriate measures to protect your data against unauthorized access or disclosure.

No system is 100% secure. Keep your credentials confidential. If you suspect a breach, contact us immediately.

We may update this policy to reflect changes in the app or applicable law. For material changes, we will notify you via in-app notification or email before they take effect. Continued use of StreetWise constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.

For any privacy questions or data requests, reach out to our privacy office. We respond within 30 days.
