Privacy Policy (Android)
Last Updated: April 8, 2026
1. Data Collection
Discover JDM does not require account creation. We collect limited technical data and subscription-related identifiers to provide our services. This includes device metadata, app version, performance logs, App User ID, and transaction identifiers. We also collect local data for favorites and stamp collection as described in Section 2.
2. Location Data
- General usage: Displaying your position on the interactive map relative to car events.
- Proximity Alerts: Verifying physical presence at a spot for the 'Goshuincho' stamp feature. Precise coordinates used for proximity verification are processed locally and never stored on our servers.
3. How We Collect Data
Data is collected directly from your actions, system permissions, and device-generated tokens. We do not track your behavior across other apps or websites.
4. How We Use Data
We use the collected data strictly to show events, enable favorites/stamps, deliver personalized notifications, and ensure app stability. We do not sell your data, and we do not use it for advertising.
5. Third-Party Service Providers
Discover JDM utilizes third-party Software Development Kits (SDKs) that transmit technical data to their respective servers:
A. Google Firebase (Notifications & Analytics): Used to deliver push notifications and collect anonymized app usage statistics (GA4). It processes unique device tokens and non-identifying event data to help us improve the app experience.
B. RevenueCat (Subscriptions): Used to manage and verify Pro access. RevenueCat processes App User ID, transaction identifiers, and purchase history. Payment details are handled securely by Google.
C. Google Maps: The app uses Google Maps to display event locations. Your interaction with these services is governed by Google’s Privacy Policy.
6. Data Retention
Local data (favorites, stamps) remains on your device until you delete the app or clear the data. Technical identifiers are retained only as long as necessary to provide services and diagnostics.
7. Your Controls
You can manage location permissions, notifications, and reset local data anytime via Android System Settings and the in-app settings menu.
Deletion Requests
To request deletion of any data associated with your App User ID, please contact us at [email protected].
