Introduction:

Thank you for using Bubby (“the App”). This Privacy Policy explains what personal data we collect, how we use and share it, and the choices available to you. Bubby is published by CONDUCTOR DIGITAL (“we”, “us”, or “our”).

For any questions or concerns about this policy, please contact us at support@bubbyvsa.app.

Information we collect:

To provide and improve our services, we collect the following types of information:

  • Account Information: This includes your email address, display name, username, and authentication tokens. You can also set a preference for your phone number's visibility.

  • Profile Details: You may choose to provide additional details such as your city, country, biography, garage name, and the services you offer.

  • Vehicle and Marketplace Data: We collect information about your vehicles, including make, model, trim, year, and registration details. If you list a vehicle for sale, we also collect pricing and any supporting notes.

  • User-Generated Content: This includes any media you upload, such as photos and videos, as well as route plans, posts, comments, reactions, and chat messages.

  • Location Data:

    • Foreground Location: We access your location when you use features like live trip tracking, ride offers, or nearby discovery.

    • Background Location: With your explicit permission, we may track your location in the background for features that continue to run when the app is not in the foreground. A persistent notification will be displayed, and you can disable this at any time.

  • Device and Diagnostic Information: We collect device identifiers (like Firebase Cloud Messaging tokens), operating system version, language preferences, crash reports, and performance metrics to deliver notifications and ensure app stability

  • Safety and Discovery: To provide tools like live trip tracking, information on nearby events, and city-level vehicle listings.

We do not sell your personal data.

Data Retention and Security?

We retain your data until you delete it or close your account, unless a longer retention period is required by law. You can edit or delete your content, such as vehicles, posts, and messages, at any time within the App.

  • Account Deletion: You can request to delete your account through the in-app settings or by contacting us via email. This will remove your profile and vehicle data, though some information may be retained for legal or safety reasons.

  • Notifications: You can disable push notifications at any time through your device settings.Links to other websites:
