Savotu Privacy Policy

Effective [PUBLICATION DATE]

In short: Savotu sends nothing. Everything the app reads or records stays on your phone. We receive only what you choose to send (section 4).

1. Who is responsible

Savotu is published by Tremblay Systems Integration Inc. (TSI), in Quebec. The person in charge of protecting personal information is Julien Tremblay. For any question or request: [email protected].

2. What Savotu reads and keeps, on the phone only

• Offer cards: through Android's accessibility service, Savotu reads the amount, distance, time, pickup area and dropoff street of offers, in the driver apps you choose only. When an app hides that text, Savotu takes a picture of that app's window only and reads it with text recognition on the phone; the picture is never saved. It reads no other app, no password and no message, and it respects screens an app protects. Raw text is not saved: the "Diagnostics" screen shows it only while the app stays open. The dropoff street is used for a moment to place the offer on the map stored on the phone, then forgotten; it is neither kept nor logged.
• The history of scored offers: amount, distance, time, verdict. You can clear it in Assist.
• Mileage: if you turn it on, GPS position measures the distance of a shift. Only the total is kept. If you turn on automatic shift start, opening a driver app starts the measurement, with a visible notification while it runs.
• The zone map: squares of about 450 m with the average net per hour, kept 35 days.
• Exact routes and the points where your trips end: only if you turn on "Keep my exact routes", kept 7 days, then erased automatically.
• The blacklist: the places you type are kept. To compare against it, Savotu also reads the restaurant or store name and the pickup address on the offer card, without saving them. The last 5 pickups stay in memory only, so they can be added in one tap; they are never written and disappear when Android stops Savotu. On a ride, that pickup can be the rider's address.
• What you enter: earnings, expenses, tips, planned shifts, rules, vehicle, hubs, blacklist.

You can erase everything: the map on the Map screen, the history in Assist, and the rest by uninstalling the app or clearing its data in Android settings.

3. What Savotu does not send

The version sold on Google Play has no permission to access the Internet. Savotu has no account, no server, no usage statistics, no ads and no trackers. Data from one platform is never combined with another's.

4. When data leaves the phone

Only when you ask: when you tap "Share" or "Export", Android lets you pick the app that receives the text or CSV file. What happens next is up to that app.

For testers: "Share my data with Savotu" creates a file of figures (per offer: date, amount, distance, duration, verdict and your decision; per trip: amount, tip, distance, duration; and your rules). It holds no position, no restaurant name, no address and no text from the card. Nothing leaves without your action: you see what the file contains, then you choose the app that sends it, for example an email to [email protected]. TSI uses it only to improve Savotu, keeps it for as long as that takes, does not share it, and deletes it on request at [email protected].

This website (savotu.ca) sets no cookies and loads no third-party script, font or tracker. It is hosted by Cloudflare, which, like any host, receives the technical data of each request (your IP address, the page asked for, the date and your browser) to deliver the pages and protect them from abuse, and may keep it under its own policy. Savotu does not use this data. Messages sent to [email protected] or [email protected] pass through Cloudflare's email forwarding and arrive in the TSI mailbox that answers them.

5. Payments

Subscriptions go through Google Play. Google processes the payment under its own policy. Savotu only receives confirmation that the subscription is active, without your name or card.

6. Your rights

You can access, correct or delete your information. Since it stays on your phone, you do this directly in the app. We hold no data about you. You can also file a complaint with the Commission d'accès à l'information du Québec.

7. Children

Savotu is meant for adult drivers.

8. Changes

If this policy changes, the app will show you before the change applies.
