Privacy Policy for AllSpark

Last updated: 2024

This Privacy Policy explains how AllSpark ("we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, and discloses information about you when you use our mobile application and related services (the "App").

1. Information We Collect

Location Data

To provide core functionality including displaying nearby EV chargers, calculating optimal routes, and enabling navigation templates via Android Auto, our App requires access to your location data.

  • Foreground Location: We collect location data when the app is actively in use on your screen.
  • Background Location: We may collect location data when the app is running in the background (for example, during active navigation to a charging station or projecting to your car screen).

Device and Usage Data

We automatically collect certain information about your device and how you interact with the App, including device identifiers, IP addresses, operating system version, and app performance metrics.

Personal Information and Authentication

If you create an account using our authentication service, we collect personal information such as your name, email address, and OAuth authentication tokens.

Photos and Camera

If you use features to capture or upload images of charging stations or update your profile picture, the App requests permission to access your device camera or photo gallery. We only access the specific images you select.

2. How We Use Your Information

  • Show you the nearest available EV charging stations.
  • Calculate accurate driving routes based on your vehicle model.
  • Display navigation instructions on your phone or Android Auto interface.
