LEGAL · PRIVACY POLICY · Last updated August 21, 2025

Your data, handled with care

We collect only what's needed to make AddMile work for you. This policy explains what we collect, why, how we use it, and the rights you have over your data.

This Privacy Policy explains how we collect personal data when you use the AddMile mobile application (the "App"), the website at myaddmile.com (the "Website"), and related services (collectively, the "Services"), and how we use, share, and process that data.

By using the Services you confirm that: (i) you have read, understood, and agreed to this Privacy Policy, and (ii) you are over 16 years of age (or your parent/guardian has read and agreed for you). If you do not agree, please delete your account in "Settings," cancel your subscription through Apple, Google, or the Website, and remove the App from your devices.

"GDPR" refers to General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679. "EEA" includes EU member states, European Economic Area nations, and the United Kingdom. "Process" encompasses collecting, storing, and disclosing personal data.

1. Categories of personal data we collect

1.1 Data you give us

You provide information during registration and use of the Services — including your name, email, content shared within the Service, plus support inquiries and any communications you send us.

1.2 Data provided by third parties

Google Login — we receive your email, name, profile image, and Google ID. Revoke access via your Google permissions page.

Apple Sign In — we receive your name and verified Apple ID email (or anonymous private relay email). Revoke access via Apple's instructions.

Facebook Login — we receive your profile image, name, and Facebook ID (and email unless you opt out at login).

1.3 Data we collect automatically

  • Source data — the referring app or URL where you encountered our advertisement.
  • Device and location — language settings, IP address, time zone, device type and model, OS version, ISP, mobile carrier, hardware ID, advertising identifiers (IDFA / AAID).
  • Usage — interactions with screens and features, time spent in Services, account age, subscription status, total spending, and refund activity.
  • Transaction data — we do not store full credit card numbers; payment processors handle them. We may receive transaction date, time, amount, and payment method type.
  • Cookies — small text files used for record-keeping. Session cookies expire when you close your browser; persistent cookies remain longer. Tracking pixels support advertising delivery.

2. For what purposes we process your personal data

2.1 To provide our Services
