Privacy Policy

Effective Date: 10/23/2024

Storm Equipment is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our iOS app "StormVision". By using the App, you consent to the practices described in this Privacy Policy.

1. Information We Collect

Personal Data
We do not collect or link any personal identifying information (PII) such as names, email addresses, or other similar details at this time.

Usage Data
We may automatically collect usage data such as IP addresses, device type, operating system, and crash diagnostics via Firebase for app performance monitoring. None of this data is linked to any PII.

iPad-Specific Data
We track certain data on the iPad itself, such as:

  • GPS Information: The App may collect location data from the iPad’s GPS, which is used solely for functionality within the App.
  • Plow Box Information: Data related to the Plow Box is tracked on the iPad.

Note: Currently, we do not send this data anywhere or store it on external servers. Future versions of the App may introduce data transmission or retrieval, at which time this policy will be updated accordingly.

Cookies and Tracking Technologies
We use cookies and similar tracking technologies like web beacons and pixels to collect information about how you interact with our App for performance improvements and analytics purposes.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the collected information to:

  • Operate and maintain the App.
  • Analyze performance and troubleshoot issues using diagnostic data collected via Firebase.
  • Monitor App usage trends to improve functionality.

We do not send location or Plow Box data off-device at this time. If this changes in future updates, we will inform users and update this policy accordingly.

3. Sharing of Information

We do not share any GPS or Plow Box information collected from the iPad. The diagnostic data sent via Firebase is used strictly for app maintenance and crash reporting. In the future, if we begin to share any collected data, this policy will be updated.

4. Your Data Protection Rights (GDPR, CCPA, CPRA)

  • The right to request deletion of your personal data.
  • The right to opt out of the sale of your personal data.

5. Third-Party Services

Our App uses third-party services such as Firebase for diagnostics and crash reporting. These services may collect information as per their own privacy policies. We encourage you to review these third-party privacy policies. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of any third-party services.

6. Data Security

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your data. However, no security system is impenetrable, and we cannot guarantee the security of your data.

7. Children's Privacy

Our App is not intended for individuals under the age of 16. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe we have inadvertently collected information from a child, please contact us so we can take steps to remove such data.
