Refuelr is committed to protecting your privacy. This policy explains what data we collect, how we use it, when data is used for tracking, and your choices.
Third-party content and attributions
Refuelr contains, shows, or accesses third-party content and services. This includes map data from OpenStreetMap contributors, official fuel price data published under the UK Open Government Licence v3.0, app store payment and subscription systems, and third-party services such as Firebase, RevenueCat, and Google Mobile Ads.
- OpenStreetMap - map data © OpenStreetMap contributors, available under the Open Database License (ODbL).

What we collect

- Precise Location to find nearby stations and support route-based features.
- Search History (for example, saved routes and related route metadata) to provide core app features across devices when you are signed in.

How we use your data
We use the data above for the following purposes, depending on data type: app functionality, analytics, and (where applicable) third-party advertising. We do not sell personal data to data brokers.
- App Functionality: authentication, saved routes, subscriptions, security checks, and notifications.
- Analytics: understanding usage patterns, app quality, and performance.
- Third-Party Advertising: showing ads and measuring ad effectiveness for non-premium users.
Tracking and advertising
On iOS, Refuelr includes Apple's App Tracking Transparency (ATT) permission prompt. If you allow tracking, advertising-related data (including certain device identifiers and ad measurement signals) may be used by advertising partners to provide and measure ads.
If you do not allow tracking, Refuelr will continue to function, but ad personalisation and ad measurement may be limited.
User privacy choices
- iOS tracking permission: Settings > Privacy & Security > Tracking.
- Manage notification permissions in device settings.
- You can delete your Refuelr account in the app at Manage account > Delete account, or read the full process on the account deletion page.
- If available in your region, use platform controls such as Limit Ad Tracking / personalised ads controls.
Third-party services
Refuelr uses third-party processors that may handle data described in this policy:
- Firebase (Google) - authentication, database, cloud functions, messaging, and app analytics/diagnostics.
- RevenueCat - subscription management and entitlement tracking.
- Google Mobile Ads (AdMob) - ad delivery and ad measurement for non-premium users.
Community submissions
When you submit fuel or oil price information to Refuelr, that content may be reviewed, stored, and displayed to other users as part of the app experience. We may remove submissions that are inaccurate, abusive, infringing, misleading, or otherwise inconsistent with our terms or legal obligations.
Subscriptions & payments
Subscriptions are processed by Apple (App Store) or Google (Play Store). Refuelr does not directly collect payment card numbers. Refunds are managed by the relevant app store.
Data retention
We retain account data while your account is active and for a limited period where needed for legal, fraud-prevention, or operational reasons. You can request account deletion. Diagnostic and operational logs may be retained for a limited period necessary for security and reliability.
International transfers
Some service providers may process data outside your country. Where required, we use appropriate safeguards for international data transfers.
Your rights
Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict processing of your personal data. To exercise these rights, contact us at refuelr@outlook.com.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. The effective date at the top will always reflect the latest revision.
