Privacy Policy for KiteFlow
Last updated: July 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how KiteFlow ("we," "our," or "the app") collects, uses, and protects your information when you use our mobile application.
Information We Collect
We collect the following types of information:
- Account Information: When you create an account, we collect your email address to authenticate you and manage your account.
- Location Data: With your permission, we collect your precise location while you use the app in order to show nearby spots and enable live location sharing with your community. If you enable background tracking, we may also collect your location when the app is not actively open, solely to support live tracking features you have chosen to use.
- Usage and Diagnostic Data: We use analytics and crash-reporting tools to understand how the app is used and to identify and fix technical issues. This may include device information, app usage patterns, and crash logs.
- Biometric Authentication: If you choose to enable Face ID login, this authentication is handled entirely on your device using Apple's Face ID system. We do not receive, store, or have access to any biometric data — your device simply confirms your identity locally before granting access to the app.
How We Use Your Information
- To create and manage your account
- To provide core app features, including showing nearby locations and enabling live location sharing with other users you choose to share with
- To maintain, improve, and troubleshoot the app
- To communicate with you about your account or the service, if necessary
How We Share Your Information
We do not sell your personal information. We may share information with:
- Other users: If you use live location sharing features, your location is shared with the specific users or community you choose to share it with within the app.
- Service providers: We use third-party infrastructure providers (such as authentication and analytics services) to operate the app. These providers only process data as needed to provide their service to us.
- Legal requirements: We may disclose information if required by law or to protect the rights, safety, or property of KiteFlow, our users, or others.
Your Choices and Rights
- You can disable location access at any time via your device's Settings app.
- You can request deletion of your account and associated data by contacting us at the email below.
- You can disable Face ID login at any time from within the app's settings without affecting your ability to log in via your standard credentials.
Data Retention
We retain your account and location data for as long as your account is active, or as needed to provide the service. You may request deletion of your data at any time.
Children's Privacy
KiteFlow is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date.
