Your data stays on your phone.

What we keep

We keep your places, the names you add, your hours and a summary of your trips (when you left, time in the car and minutes saved). This is stored in a private file on your phone.

What we use to learn the traffic

On your trips, we keep the average speed of each stretch of about 150 metres, by direction, type of day and half-hour slot. We also keep the shape of the streets you usually drive along, without linking it to times or dates. This stays on your phone and is deleted when you choose “Delete everything”.

What leaves your phone

To work out a route, we send the start, the stops and the destination to OSRM (FOSSGIS). To search for addresses, we send the text you type to Photon (komoot). Traffic alerts, city data and the map are downloaded from their sources. A city's traffic is only downloaded if your route goes through it. None of these requests include your name or a personal identifier.

Location in the background

If you allow it, Android detects when you start driving and Fluye uses GPS during that trip to learn how the traffic behaves. Location stops being used after 6 minutes without moving. You can take the permission back in Android's settings.

No accounts, no ads

You don't need to sign up. Fluye has no ads and no analytics tools. We don't sell or share your data.

Backups and deleting

You can export your data or delete it in Settings. When you uninstall Fluye, Android also deletes its data. It isn't included in cloud backups.

Contact

If you have any questions about your data, you can write to us from Fluye's page on Google Play.
