XFLOQ

Privacy Policy

XFLOQ is designed around a local-first model: no XFLOQ account is required, and user-specific driving history is not stored on an XFLOQ profile server.

Effective September 6, 2026 · XFLOQ 1.0

1. Privacy at a glance

XFLOQ does not require an account, does not create a personal profile, does not store license-plate data about you, and does not operate a server that stores your personal drive history, saved places, camera encounters, or Safety Recordings. Those items are kept on your device unless you deliberately use a feature that sends or shares information.

XFLOQ does not sell personal information and does not use your information for targeted advertising or cross-app tracking.

2. Data stored locally

Depending on the features you use, XFLOQ may store on your device drive summaries and diagnostic driving logs, recent destinations, saved places, camera encounter history, offline map/search/route caches, parking information, incident notes, trusted safety contact information, preferences, and indexes for Safety Recordings.

3. Safety Recording

Camera, microphone, and Photos access is used only when you intentionally use Safety Recording or save media. XFLOQ does not automatically upload Safety Recordings. Videos saved to Apple Photos are managed through the Photos app and your iCloud settings, if any.

4. Location, search, maps, and routing

XFLOQ uses precise location for features such as navigation, live speed, nearby-camera distance, road awareness, Community Road Reports, and background driving alerts. Search text, route endpoints, or location coordinates may be sent to third-party services when necessary to provide a feature you request.

Depending on availability and the feature being used, these services can include Apple MapKit, Google Maps Platform, Mapbox, OpenStreetMap-based services, Photon, Nominatim, OSRM, and related infrastructure. These providers process requests under their own terms and privacy policies.

5. Community Road Reports

Community Road Reports are optional. If you submit a report, XFLOQ sends a fixed road-event type, a street-level report location, and timestamps to the XFLOQ community service. If you verify a report, XFLOQ sends the report identifier, your verification action, and a reduced-precision current location only to confirm that you are near the reported event; that verifier location is not stored in the Community Road Reports database. Nearby-report discovery also uses reduced coordinate precision rather than your full GPS precision.

XFLOQ does not attach your name, email address, XFLOQ account, license plate, recording, search history, saved places, or drive history to a Community Road Report. Reports use fixed categories only; users cannot publish free-form text, photos, profile names, comments, or chat through this service.

Community reports are temporary. An active report expires one hour after its latest “Still There” confirmation unless it is removed sooner by community feedback, moderation, or abuse controls. A new nearby matching report may be consolidated into the existing report and treated as a fresh confirmation. XFLOQ may block abusive access to the reporting service.

6. Infrastructure and standard network metadata

XFLOQ uses Cloudflare infrastructure for the Community Road Reports service. As with ordinary internet services, infrastructure providers may process standard network and security metadata needed to deliver, protect, troubleshoot, and rate-limit requests. XFLOQ does not store raw IP addresses in its Community Road Reports database.

7. Problem reports, feature suggestions, and support

Problem reports and feature suggestions open a pre-addressed email to support@xfloq.com. Nothing is sent until you choose to send the email. Optional diagnostic information is shown to you and is designed to exclude exact GPS coordinates, route coordinates, drive history, and recordings.

Support email is retained as reasonably necessary to respond, investigate the request, protect the service, satisfy legal obligations, or maintain business records. You may request deletion of support correspondence where applicable by contacting us.

8. Camera and public road information

XFLOQ displays public or third-party camera and road information. Source records, operator details, retention practices, and similar information can be incomplete, delayed, or inaccurate. XFLOQ marks unavailable information as unknown rather than presenting it as verified.

9. Permissions

You can review or revoke system permissions in iOS Settings. Some features will not function without the permission they require.

10. Retention and deletion

Local XFLOQ data can be cleared from the app’s Privacy & App controls. Deleting the app also removes app-local storage, subject to normal iOS behavior. Safety videos saved to Photos must be managed in Photos. Already-shared Community Road Reports cannot be individually tied back to an XFLOQ account because no such account exists; they are automatically temporary and expire or may be removed through community moderation. Support requests can be addressed through the support email below.

11. Children and age

XFLOQ is a general driving and navigation utility and is not designed as a children’s social service. XFLOQ does not provide public profiles, chat, or social-media accounts.

12. Security and changes

XFLOQ uses reasonable technical and organizational safeguards appropriate to the service, including input validation, limited report categories, short report retention, rate limiting, and service-level abuse controls. No internet service can guarantee absolute security. We may update this policy as XFLOQ changes; the effective date above will be updated when material revisions are published.
