CoreBit Labs, LLC ("we," "us," "our") operates the WallyMate web, iOS, and Android applications. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, disclose, and protect your information.
Account information: When you create an account, we collect your name and email address.
Location data: With your permission, the App accesses your device's GPS location to provide navigation and distance features. Navigation location is processed on your device. If you explicitly turn on Share My Location, WallyMate sends foreground location updates to Supabase so accepted friends can see whether you are on or near the lake. A timestamped location may remain visible with a fading freshness indicator for up to approximately 70 minutes after the last successful update. WallyMate does not collect background location for this feature. Turning sharing off marks the server record as not sharing and clears its coordinates after that request successfully reaches our server. Location context included in a Wally query is sent to our AI provider solely to generate the response.
Friends, profiles, blocking, and reports: Friend codes, pending and accepted connections, display name, boat profile details, and your block list are stored to provide Friends features. Accepted friends may see your display name, boat profile, sharing status, and eligible last shared location. If you report another user, we store the report reason, optional details, involved account identifiers, timestamps, and moderation status. Reports are available to the reporting user and authorized WallyMate administrators for review; the reported user cannot read the report. Blocking removes the friendship and prevents new requests until you unblock that user.
Flagged Wally responses: If you flag an AI response, we store the response text, your selected reason, optional details, your account identifier, timestamps, and moderation status so authorized WallyMate administrators can review it.
Saved spots: Locations you save are stored in our database associated with your account.
Usage and diagnostics data: We collect account-linked event names, platform, app release, a random per-session identifier, feature context, timing, and coarse GPS accuracy or mode outcomes to understand feature use, monitor release health, and diagnose failures. These analytics do not include your precise coordinates, friend coordinates, Wally message text, user-report details, or saved-spot coordinates, but they can be associated with your WallyMate account.
Communications: If you contact us, we retain that correspondence.
We use your information to: (a) provide and improve the App; (b) authenticate and secure your account; (c) sync saved spots and profile settings; (d) provide friend connections and optional foreground location sharing; (e) investigate user reports and flagged AI responses, enforce our Terms, prevent abuse, and protect users; (f) respond to support requests; (g) send important service updates (not marketing without consent); and (h) comply with legal obligations.
We do not sell your personal information. We share data only with:
We retain account information, saved spots, friend relationships, profile information, and blocks while needed to provide the service or until the account or relevant record is deleted. While Friends location sharing is enabled, the latest location replaces the prior location record; locations older than approximately 70 minutes are not made available to friends. Turning sharing off disables the record and clears its coordinates after that request successfully reaches our server.
We retain user reports, flagged Wally responses, and moderation records for as long as reasonably necessary to investigate concerns, improve safety, enforce our Terms, document actions, prevent repeated abuse, and meet legal obligations. These records may outlast a friendship or block. Account deletion removes account-linked data according to our database deletion process, except information we must retain for legal, security, fraud-prevention, dispute, or abuse-prevention purposes. Anonymized or aggregated usage data may be retained indefinitely.
We implement industry-standard security measures including encrypted connections (HTTPS), row-level security on our database, and secure authentication. No method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security.
The App is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe we have inadvertently collected such information, contact us immediately.
You may: access your personal data; correct inaccurate data; delete your account and associated data; turn off Friends location sharing; block or unblock users; and opt out of non-essential communications. You can delete your account from the Profile screen in the App or follow the instructions on our account deletion page. For other requests, contact wallymateapp@gmail.com.
California residents have additional rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), including the right to know what personal information is collected, the right to deletion, and the right to non-discrimination. We do not sell personal information. To submit a CCPA request, contact wallymateapp@gmail.com.
We may update this Privacy Policy periodically. We will notify registered users of material changes by email. Continued use after changes constitutes acceptance.
