  • Create or update the TravelSafely account which may include your Email ID, Name, Password, Registration Area.
  • Your preferences and settings such as time zone and language.

3.2 HOW TRAVELSAFELY USES USERS LOCATION INFORMATION?

After the application launch, on login, if access fine location permission or background location permission is not enabled for TravelSafely. You will see an alert dialog with an explanation, why TravelSafely requires the location in the background and foreground of both states with the allow and deny options.

If you select the deny option, then the TravelSafely application will not allow you to log in and give you another alert dialog to enable location runtime permissions.

If you select the allow option, TravelSafely will ask you location runtime permissions to get your location information, during login or using core features of TravelSafely, which includes location data. To use our best service available in TravelSafely, the app will ask you to turn on location services and permissions. In android device, you will have three options in runtime location permission to choose from:

  1. Allow all the time: We need this option to be enabled, when the app is running in the foreground (app open and on-screen) or background (app open or active but not on-screen) in both states.
  2. Allow only while using the app: If you select this option, then TravelSafely will not be able to get location information in the background state. In this case, you can only use TravelSafely services in the foreground state. To get accurate results of location-based safety alerts you need to give “Allow all the time” permission.
  3. Deny: This option disables location services for the TravelSafely app. In order to use the application, you need to enable location permission out of the two options mentioned above.

We are using location information as mentioned in the sections below.

3.3 LOCATION DATA

We collect precise location data from the user’s mobile devices if they enable us to do so. We maintain this data only so long, as it is reasonable to provide our service. We use location data to find the valid service area, to detect nearby intersections devices and beacon devices, to process Signal Phase and Timing Messages from these devices, movement calculation, and detection of mode type (Pedestrian, Cyclist, Motorist) of the user as per the speed and their movement, to show alerts and alarms to different users on basis of their location, speed, and movement.

TravelSafely collects this data when the TravelSafely app is running in the foreground (app open and on-screen) or background (app open or active but not on-screen) of their mobile device. When running in the background, the app continues to check location so that it can deliver location-based safety alerts using voice announcements, without the user having to look at the app, to minimize distraction while driving or cycling.
