Privacy Policy – Car Log

Effective Date: 15 August 2026
App Name: Car Log
Developer: Rank Pulse Ltd

1. Introduction

Car Log is a vehicle management application developed by Rank Pulse Ltd. The app is designed to help users organise and manage information relating to their vehicles, including mileage, fuel usage, maintenance, servicing, expenses, reminders, MOT details, insurance details, road tax information, documents and other vehicle-related records.

Rank Pulse Ltd respects the privacy of Car Log users and is committed to being clear and transparent about how information is handled within the application.

This Privacy Policy explains what information may be entered into Car Log, how that information is stored and used, when information may be processed by third-party services, the permissions the app may request, and the privacy choices available to users.

By using Car Log, you acknowledge the practices described in this Privacy Policy.

2. No Account or Registration Required

Car Log does not require users to create an online account, register, provide an email address or create a traditional username and password in order to use the main features of the app.

Users can access and use Car Log directly after installation.

Because no mandatory online account is required, Rank Pulse Ltd does not collect account registration details simply for you to use the app.

3. Optional PIN Protection

Car Log provides an optional PIN protection feature.

Users may choose to create a PIN to restrict unauthorised access to the application on their device. The PIN is intended as a local security feature only.

The PIN:

• Does not create an online Car Log account
• Is not used as an online account password
• Is intended to restrict access to the app on the user's device
• May be stored locally on the user's device depending on the app implementation

Where the PIN is stored locally, Rank Pulse Ltd does not receive, view or manage the user's PIN.

Users are responsible for remembering their PIN and maintaining the security of their device.

6. Local Data Storage

Car Log is designed primarily to store the information you enter locally on your device.

This may include your vehicle information, mileage records, fuel history, maintenance records, expenses, reminders, notes, documents and other app settings.

Where information is stored locally, Rank Pulse Ltd does not automatically receive or access that information simply because you use Car Log.

Your locally stored data generally remains on your device until you:

• Delete individual records
• Delete a vehicle
• Remove stored documents
• Clear the app's storage or data
• Reset the application
• Uninstall Car Log

The exact behaviour may also depend on your Android device, operating system settings, device backup settings or other platform-level features.

7. Device Backup

Your Android device or Google account may offer operating system-level backup functionality.

If device backup is enabled, certain app data may be backed up by your device or platform provider depending on your Android settings and the technical configuration of Car Log.

Such backups are controlled by the relevant platform or device provider and may be subject to their own privacy policies.

Rank Pulse Ltd does not control the user's personal Android or Google backup settings.

8. Vehicle Documents and Images

Car Log may allow users to add, save or associate documents and images with a vehicle.

These may include:

• MOT documents
• Insurance documents
• Road tax information
• Service receipts
• Maintenance records
• Repair invoices
• Vehicle images
• Other vehicle-related documents

Users are responsible for deciding what information or documents they choose to store in Car Log.

We recommend that users avoid storing unnecessary highly sensitive information in uploaded documents.

9. Device Permissions

Car Log may request certain device permissions where they are required to provide a feature selected by the user.

Depending on the app version and Android device, permissions may include:

Camera

Camera access may be requested if the app allows users to capture vehicle photographs, receipts or vehicle-related documents.

Photos and Media

Access to photos or media may be requested if users choose to select an existing image or document from their device.

Files or Storage

File or storage access may be requested where necessary to select, save, import or manage vehicle-related documents.

Notifications

Notification permission may be requested so Car Log can provide reminders about servicing, MOT, insurance, road tax, maintenance or other user-created events.

Permissions are only required where relevant to a particular feature.

Users can manage or revoke permissions through their Android device settings.

Some functionality may become unavailable or limited if a required permission is denied.

10. Notifications and Reminders

Car Log may use local or device notifications to remind users about information they have entered into the app.

Examples may include:

• MOT expiry reminders
• Insurance renewal reminders
• Road tax reminders
• Service reminders
• Maintenance reminders
• Other vehicle-related reminders created by the user

Users can control notification permissions through their Android device settings.

Disabling notifications may prevent certain reminders from being displayed.

11. Advertising

Car Log may display advertisements provided by third-party advertising services.

Advertising providers may process certain technical information in order to display, measure and manage advertisements.

Depending on the advertising provider, device settings, applicable laws and user consent, this may include:

• Device information
• Device identifiers
• Advertising identifiers
• IP address
• Approximate location inferred from technical information
• Advertising interactions
• App interaction information
• Diagnostic information
• Information relating to ad impressions and clicks

Rank Pulse Ltd does not provide your private vehicle logs, mileage information, maintenance records, expense records, reminders or uploaded vehicle documents to advertisers for their independent advertising purposes.

Where required by applicable law, consent options may be displayed before certain personalised advertising technologies are used.

12. Advertising Identifier

Android devices may provide an advertising identifier that can be used by advertising services for purposes such as ad delivery, measurement and fraud prevention.

The use of advertising identifiers is governed by Google Play requirements, device settings and the privacy policies of the relevant advertising provider.

Users may be able to manage advertising preferences or reset advertising identifiers through their Android or Google settings.

13. Analytics and Diagnostics

Car Log may use analytics, crash reporting or diagnostic technologies to help improve application performance and reliability.

Such services may process information including:

• Device type
• Android version
• App version
• Crash information
• Error logs
• Performance information
• Basic app interaction data
• Technical diagnostic data

This information may help Rank Pulse Ltd identify bugs, crashes, performance issues and technical problems.

Analytics and diagnostic services are not intended to access the contents of your private vehicle documents or vehicle records unless this is specifically necessary and disclosed.

14. Third-Party Services

Car Log may use third-party services to provide certain functionality, advertising, diagnostics, analytics or platform-related features.

These services may include Google services or other service providers integrated into the application.

Third-party services operate according to their own terms and privacy policies.

Rank Pulse Ltd does not control the independent privacy practices of third-party providers.

Users should review the privacy policies of relevant third-party services where appropriate.

15. Data Sharing

Rank Pulse Ltd does not sell users' personal information.

Information may only be disclosed where reasonably necessary to:

• Provide a feature requested by the user
• Operate a third-party service integrated into Car Log
• Maintain app security
• Detect fraud, abuse or technical issues
• Comply with a legal requirement
• Respond to a lawful request from a competent authority
• Protect the rights, property or safety of users, Rank Pulse Ltd or others

Your private locally stored vehicle records are not shared with third parties for their independent marketing purposes.

16. Data Security

Rank Pulse Ltd takes reasonable steps to protect information handled through Car Log.

However, no application, device, storage method or electronic communication system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

Users are responsible for maintaining the security of their device.

We recommend using:

• Device PIN protection
• Password protection
• Fingerprint or biometric security
• Screen lock
• Car Log's optional PIN protection
• Regular device security updates

Users should also be careful about storing unnecessary confidential or sensitive information within vehicle documents.

17. Data Retention

Locally stored information generally remains on the user's device until it is manually deleted, the app's data is cleared, or the application is uninstalled.

Car Log may allow users to delete:

• Individual vehicle records
• Mileage records
• Fuel records
• Maintenance history
• Expenses
• Reminders
• Documents
• Notes
• Complete vehicles

Rank Pulse Ltd generally does not retain a separate server-side copy of locally stored Car Log vehicle records where no online service is being used.

18. Deleting Your Data

Users can remove their information directly from the application where deletion functionality is available.

Users may also delete locally stored app information by:

• Deleting individual records
• Deleting saved vehicles
• Removing stored documents
• Clearing Car Log's app data through Android settings
• Uninstalling Car Log

Uninstalling the app may permanently remove locally stored information unless it has been separately backed up by the device, operating system or another service.

Users should export or retain any important records before uninstalling the app where appropriate.

19. Data Transfers

Because Car Log primarily stores vehicle information locally, private vehicle records are generally not transferred to Rank Pulse Ltd servers.

However, third-party services such as advertising, analytics or diagnostic providers may process technical information outside the user's country.

Where applicable, such transfers are governed by the policies and safeguards maintained by those third-party providers and applicable data protection law.

20. Children's Privacy

Car Log is a vehicle management application intended for general use and is not specifically designed for children.

Rank Pulse Ltd does not intentionally design Car Log to collect personal information from children.

If we become aware that personal information has been improperly collected from a child in circumstances where parental consent is legally required, appropriate steps may be taken to address the matter.

21. User Privacy Choices

Users remain in control of many privacy-related features within Car Log and their Android device.

Depending on the device and app version, users may be able to:

• Enable or disable notifications
• Allow or deny camera access
• Allow or deny photo and media access
• Manage file permissions
• Manage advertising preferences
• Reset advertising identifiers
• Delete saved records
• Remove documents
• Delete vehicles
• Clear application data
• Enable or disable Car Log PIN protection
• Uninstall the application

22. Your Rights

Depending on where you live, applicable privacy laws may provide rights relating to personal information.

These rights may include rights to access, correct, delete, restrict or object to certain processing activities.

Because Car Log primarily stores vehicle information locally on your device, Rank Pulse Ltd may not have access to the information you have entered into the application and therefore may not be technically able to retrieve or delete that information on your behalf.

Where information is processed directly by Rank Pulse Ltd, you may contact us regarding applicable privacy rights.

23. UK and European Users

Where applicable, Rank Pulse Ltd aims to handle personal information in accordance with relevant UK and European data protection requirements.

Depending on the type of processing involved, information may be processed because:

• It is necessary to provide a service requested by the user
• The user has provided consent
• There is a legitimate interest in maintaining security and app functionality
• Processing is required to comply with a legal obligation

Users may withdraw consent where processing is based on consent, subject to applicable law and technical limitations.

24. Third-Party Links

Car Log may contain links that direct users to external websites, services or third-party resources.

Rank Pulse Ltd is not responsible for the privacy practices, content or security of external websites or services.

Users should review the privacy policies of external services before providing personal information.

25. Changes to This Privacy Policy

Rank Pulse Ltd may update this Privacy Policy from time to time.

Changes may be necessary because of:

• New Car Log features
• Changes to advertising services
• Changes to analytics services
• New third-party integrations
• Changes to legal requirements
• Security improvements
