PrivacyPublic map, private contributors
RoadSense exists to publish aggregate road conditions. It is not designed to identify individual drivers or show individual trips.

01 · CollectedRoad scoring needs motion and location
When a contributor opts in, the iPhone can collect accelerometer data, precise location, speed, heading, timestamps, and basic crash or performance diagnostics.
The backend also receives normal service metadata, such as IP addresses used for rate limiting and abuse prevention. That metadata is not part of the public map.
02 · Not collectedNo account, ads, or profile
RoadSense does not ask contributors for a name, email address, phone number, home address, or user account.
The website does not use ad trackers or session replay tools.
03 · FiltersPrivacy zones are handled on the phone
Samples inside a contributor's privacy zone are discarded before upload. The server does not receive those dropped samples or a signal that a privacy zone exists.
Public data boundaryThe public site shows aggregate road segments only.It does not expose raw traces, contributor identifiers, or per-driver history.
04 · RetentionRaw samples are temporary
Contributors can delete local RoadSense data in the app. Server-side raw drive samples are kept for up to 6 months, then removed on a rolling basis.
Aggregate road-quality outputs may remain longer because they are community statistics, not personal trip histories.
05 · WebsiteThe public website is read-only
The website lets visitors view aggregated road quality, coverage, and pothole markers. It does not publish individual drives.
The retired data inventory URL now redirects here so privacy information has one main place to live.

If RoadSense changes what it collects or publishes, this page should be updated before broader public testing.
