- Vehicle data (OBD): are read via a Bluetooth connection to your OBD adapter (e.g., speed, engine speed, fuel consumption) and are only displayed and stored locally.
- Driving statistics: are calculated and stored locally on the device from the aforementioned data.
The legal basis for processing is Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. b GDPR (provision of the app functions you requested).

- Location: required for warnings and driving statistics. Processing takes place only locally on the device.
- Bluetooth: required for connecting to your vehicle's OBD adapter.
- Notifications (optional): for app warnings and status notifications.
You can revoke all permissions at any time in your Android settings. Please note that individual app functions may then become unavailable.

The app contains no advertising SDKs and no tracking or analytics services (e.g., no Google Analytics, no Firebase Analytics). No profiling takes place.
6. No third-party disclosure
Since all data remains on your device, no personal data is transferred to third parties.
