Privacy Policy

Last updated: August 31, 2026

1) Introduction

This Privacy Policy describes how MyVehicle ("we", "us", or "our") collects, uses, stores, and shares information when you use the MyVehicle mobile application (Android and iOS) and our website at vehicleservice-9abed.web.app.

MyVehicle is a local-first garage logbook for fuel, maintenance, warranties, and expenses. By using MyVehicle, you agree to this policy. If you do not agree, please discontinue use of the app and website.

2) Who We Are (Data Controller)

MyVehicle is operated by DIYOMX (Android application ID: com.diyomx.myvehicle).

For privacy-related requests, contact us at support@myvehicle.app. We aim to respond within 1–2 business days.

3) Scope

This policy applies to:

• The MyVehicle app • Our official website and legal pages • Optional features that rely on third-party services (ads on the free plan, Google Play / App Store billing, in-app updates)

Third-party services have their own privacy policies. We encourage you to review them when you use those features.

4) Local-First — No Account

MyVehicle does not require a MyVehicle account or sign-in. Vehicle profiles, fuel logs, maintenance and warranty records, expenses, attached photos, home-widget summaries, reminders, and most settings are stored on your device — not on MyVehicle servers.

We do not operate automatic cloud sync between devices. You may optionally export a JSON, CSV, or PDF file and save or share it yourself (for example Google Drive, iCloud, or Files).

New installs default to English and US Dollar in the app. Language, currency, units, and theme are preferences you control and store locally.

5) Information You Provide

Depending on how you use the app, you may enter or store:

• Vehicle details (type, make, model, year, odometer, fuel type, tank capacity, plate, VIN, payload, photo, unit preferences) • Fuel fill records (date, odometer, volume, price, station notes, receipts or photos) • Maintenance and service logs (title, cost, dates, intervals, workshop notes, photos) • Warranties and related documents you attach • Expense and renewal entries (amount, category, insurance or inspection dates, notes, receipts) • App preferences (language, currency, theme, distance units, fuel display, optional app lock)

You control what you enter. Accuracy of your records is your responsibility.

6) Information Collected Automatically

We may collect limited technical information necessary to run and improve the app:

• App version and build number • Device type and operating system version • Language and locale settings • Basic diagnostic or crash information if enabled by your platform or SDKs • Ad interaction signals when ads are shown (see Section 9) • Subscription and purchase status via Google Play or the Apple App Store (see Section 10)

We do not collect precise GPS location for core app features. We do not operate our own analytics cloud for your vehicle logs.

7) Device Permissions

MyVehicle may request the following permissions when you use related features:

• Internet — ads, store purchase verification, in-app updates, opening legal pages • Camera / Photo library — attach receipts or vehicle photos; optional odometer, VIN, plate, or receipt scanning • Notifications — optional maintenance and renewal reminders • Biometric authentication (Face ID / fingerprint) — optional lock when returning to the app • App Tracking Transparency (iOS) — used only to allow more relevant ads if you permit tracking; you can decline • Advertising ID (Android) — used by Google/Meta ad SDKs to measure and serve ads on the free plan

You can deny permissions; related features may not work until permission is granted.

8) Local Storage, Backups & Deletion

Core data is stored locally on your device in encrypted Hive boxes (the encryption key stays in the platform keystore / Keychain on this device).

Export: Pro users can export JSON, CSV, and PDF from the device. JSON backups are encrypted with a key stored on this device. CSV/PDF exports are not encrypted. You choose where files are saved or shared.

Scheduled backup: Pro can optionally write a local encrypted JSON copy plus CSV into a MyVehicleBackups folder on this device (once per day when the app opens). That copy stays on the device unless you move it.

Import: Restoring a backup merges or replaces local data on that device. Encrypted JSON restores on the same device; older unencrypted JSON files still import.

Delete: You can delete individual records or erase all local app data from Settings. Uninstalling the app removes local data from your device unless you kept backups elsewhere.

For additional guidance, see our Delete Data page.

9) Advertising (Google AdMob and Meta)

The free plan may display ads served through Google AdMob, including banners and occasional interstitial ads after milestones in the app. AdMob may fill ads from Google and from mediation partners, including Meta Audience Network (Facebook) bidding when configured.

These networks may collect or receive device identifiers (including the advertising ID), IP address, approximate location derived from IP, app and ad interaction data, crash/diagnostic signals related to ad serving, and — on iOS — App Tracking Transparency (ATT) status when you allow tracking. Meta may use the advertising tracking flag and SKAdNetwork for measurement.

Pro subscribers do not see MyVehicle ads while their store entitlement is active.

In regions where required (for example EEA/UK under GDPR, and certain US states), we use Google's User Messaging Platform (UMP) to request consent for personalized ads and to present required disclosures. You can change ad privacy choices in Settings → Ad privacy choices when that entry is required.

10) Subscriptions & Payments

Pro features (unlimited vehicles and logs, ad-free use, PDF/CSV/JSON export, scheduled local backup, fleet reports, and related Pro tools) may require a paid subscription or one-time purchase processed by Google Play or the Apple App Store. Billing uses the official in-app purchase APIs of those stores. We do not use a separate subscription analytics vendor to host your garage data.

Payment information is handled by the app store — we do not receive your full card details. The store may provide us with product identifiers, purchase tokens, and whether Pro is active so the app can unlock features on this device.

Manage, cancel, or request a refund through Google Play or the App Store, according to their policies.

11) On-Device Processing (OCR)

When you scan a receipt, odometer, VIN, or license plate, text recognition may run on your device using Google ML Kit. Images you choose are processed locally for extraction. We do not upload those photos to MyVehicle servers for this feature. You should always review suggested values before saving.

12) Notifications

If you allow notifications, MyVehicle can schedule local reminders on this device for upcoming maintenance and expense renewals (for example insurance or inspection). Reminder content is generated from data you already stored locally. We do not send marketing push campaigns from a MyVehicle server.

13) Home Screen Widgets

On supported Android devices, an optional home-screen widget can show a short summary (vehicle name, odometer, next service, fuel remaining). That summary is copied to the widget from local app data on the same device. It is not uploaded to MyVehicle servers.

14) Other Third-Party Services

Depending on your device and settings, the app may interact with:

• Google Play In-App Updates (Android) — check for app updates • Google Play Billing or App Store billing — purchases and restores • System share sheet / file picker — export and backup files you control • Google Mobile Ads / AdMob — free-plan ads • Meta Audience Network — optional mediated ads via AdMob bidding • Firebase Hosting — this public website and app-ads.txt

Each provider processes data under its own terms and privacy policy.

15) How We Use Information

We use information to:

• Provide fuel, maintenance, warranty, and expense tracking • Generate dashboards, reports, reminders, range estimates, and health scores on your device • Show ads in the free plan (with consent where required) • Validate Pro purchases through the app store • Improve stability, fix bugs, and respond to support requests • Comply with legal obligations

We do not sell your personal information. We do not use your vehicle logs to train public AI models.

16) Legal Basis (GDPR / UK GDPR)

Where GDPR applies, we rely on:

• Contract — to provide the app and features you request • Legitimate interests — security, fraud prevention, product improvement, and non-intrusive diagnostics • Consent — personalized advertising where required, and optional permissions (camera, notifications, biometrics) • Legal obligation — when we must retain or disclose data under law

17) Sharing & Disclosure

We do not sell personal data. We may share limited data with:

• Service providers that help us operate ads, store billing, and hosting of the public website • App stores for billing and compliance • Authorities when required by law or to protect rights and safety

Vehicle and log data you enter stays on your device unless you export or share it yourself.

18) International Data Transfers

Third-party providers (for example Google for ads, updates, or Play Billing, and Apple for App Store billing) may process technical or purchase data in countries outside your own. Where required, they use appropriate safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses or equivalent mechanisms.

19) Data Retention

Local app data remains on your device until you delete it or uninstall the app.

Support emails and operational records may be kept as long as needed to resolve your request and meet legal requirements.

Ad and store partners retain data according to their own retention schedules.

20) Security

We apply reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect data processed by our services. Local logs use encrypted Hive storage. Optional app lock uses your device's biometric or device-credential APIs. Pro purchase status is cached in platform secure storage and refreshed from Google Play or the App Store.

No method of storage or transmission is 100% secure. You are responsible for exported files you store elsewhere.

21) Your Privacy Rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, port, or object to certain processing of your personal data.

Because most vehicle data is stored locally, you can access, edit, or delete it directly in the app. For requests related to ads, store purchases, or support records, email support@myvehicle.app with enough detail for us to verify your request.

EEA/UK users may lodge a complaint with their local data protection authority.

22) California Privacy Notice (CCPA/CPRA)

California residents may have rights to know, delete, and correct personal information, and to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information. MyVehicle does not sell personal information. To exercise rights, contact support@myvehicle.app.

23) Children's Privacy

MyVehicle is not directed to children under 13 (or the minimum age required in your country). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child provided data, contact us and we will take reasonable steps to delete it.

24) Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date on this page will change when we do. Continued use after an update means you have reviewed the revised policy.
