DriveShield ("we," "our," "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how our mobile application ("App") collects, uses, stores, and protects your information when you use our services. By using DriveShield, you agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy.

1. Information We Collect

When you use DriveShield, we may collect the following types of information:

• Video Recordings: Videos recorded by the dashcam feature are stored locally on your device. We do not automatically upload or access your recordings unless you choose to back them up or share them.
• Location Data: To provide navigation and record incident context, the App may access your device's GPS location while in use.
• Device Information: Basic technical information (such as device model, operating system, crash logs) may be collected to improve app performance and troubleshoot issues.
• Account Information (if applicable): If you create an account, we may collect your name, email address, and login credentials.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

• Enable dashcam recording and navigation features.
• Store and display your recordings on your device.
• Provide safety proof in case of incidents (if you choose to share).
• Improve our App's functionality, performance, and security.
• Communicate with you about updates, support, or important notices.

3. How We Store and Share Data

• Local Storage: By default, all video recordings remain on your device.
• Cloud Backup (Optional): If you enable backup, recordings may be uploaded to secure servers or third-party storage providers (e.g., Google Drive, iCloud).
• No Unnecessary Sharing: We do not sell or share your personal data or recordings with advertisers or third parties.
• Legal Disclosure: We may share information if required by law, court order, or legal process.
