This application collects the following personally identifiable information:
- User email - to authenticate and authorise access to a system
- User id provided by Firebase services - to authenticate and authorise access to a system
- User name (optional) - used to display in app UI for user convenience, also for identification by crew members of the same organisation.
- User avatar URL (optional, if provided as part of Google account information)
- used to display in app UI for user convenience as avatar
- Device location (including when app is in background) - location is collected only when user has initiated a rebalancing session from app UI explicitly, and collection is stopped when session is ended either by user themselves (explicitly) or by supervisor (implicitly). Location data is a crucial piece of information that allows algorithms to provide relevant and accurate suggestions on which rebalancing tasks to perform by crew members. In the most cases, a location that is reported by device will be the one of a phone / tablet in a rebalancing vehicle, not a user specifically. This is a temporary solution until integration with GPS trackers on rebalancing vehicles is implemented. Once that is implemented - GPS data from rebalancing vehicle will supersede GPS data from user's device, thus location from user's device will not be used.
Urban Crew app third-party dependencies:
- Firebase Auth SDK - to authenticate users and use Firebase User ID for further authorisation to access some application content, such as to a team data within a city where a crew member operates.
- Firebase Analytics SDK - to gather anonymised statistics about app usage and improve user experience. This SDK may collect additional data, including but not limited to Device ID, OS version etc. This information is not stored by Urban Sharing. Refer to Google Privacy Policy instead.
- Firebase Crashlytics SDK - to collect information about crashes, that may include information about the device, such as OS version, vendor etc. This information may be used for debugging and app stability improvements.
- Google Play Services - information is not collected or processed by Urban Sharing. Refer to Google Privacy Policy instead.
- Mapbox SDK - to display a map and relevant app data on that map. Mapbox may use its own Telemetry, that user may optionally opt-in to. Refer to Mapbox Privacy Policy for details.
- Bugfender SDK - for remote logging, debugging, and sharing user feedback. Among the data collected by SDK may be User ID, Device ID and general device information (OS version, device name etc.). This is used to improve app stability and user experience.
We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. Thus, we advise you to review this page periodically for any changes. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page. These changes are effective immediately, after they are posted on this page.
