advanced dashcam / privacy

In short: no account, no ads, no tracking. Your videos, GPS tracks and trips stay on your phone.

6. Your data and privacy

Videos, GPS tracks, trips and settings are stored only on your phone, in the folder you choose. The developer does not collect, receive or sell them, and the app has no account and no ads. The app connects to the internet only to: get the weather for your location (MET Norway, api.met.no — the position is rounded to about 1 km); show map tiles when you open the map (OpenStreetMap); look up place names (Android's built-in geocoder); and check your trial or purchase (Google Play and the app's licence server, which receive a random install id, Google's integrity verdict and, after buying, the purchase token — no videos, no locations). "Web files" lets devices on your own Wi-Fi open your clips; it is off by default and needs a password.

7. Sharing recordings

If you share a recording, you are responsible for it, including other people's privacy and any rights in what was recorded.

8. Trial and purchase

The app is free to try for 7 days. After that, recording needs a one-time purchase through Google Play; clips you already recorded stay viewable. Purchases are handled by Google Play under its terms and refund rules.

Permissions

Camera: to record. Location (only while recording): speed, the GPS stamp in the video, the map, trips and the weather. Notifications: to show that it is recording. Microphone: only if you turn on sound recording. Storage (Android 8–10 only): to save clips in Movies/Dashcam.

Deleting your data

Delete clips in the app's files page or in your Gallery. Uninstalling the app removes its settings, GPS tracks and trips; clips in Movies/Dashcam or a folder you chose stay until you delete them. The licence server keeps only a random device key with the date your trial started; it holds no personal data.
