This identifier is not used for advertising, analytics, or cross-app tracking.
Emergency Contact Information
To enable safety notifications, you may choose to provide:
- The name of an emergency contact
- The email address of an emergency contact
This information is used only to notify the designated contact if you fail to check in as expected.
The App does not require or collect the user's own email address.
User-Provided Content
You may optionally provide a display name so that your emergency contact can identify who the alert relates to.
This information is used only for App functionality and is not shared for any other purpose.

We apply reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect the information we process.
Some data may be processed on secure servers located in different regions in order to provide reliable service. By using the App, you acknowledge that such processing may occur.
