Privacy Policy – Smart Cruise

1. Introduction

Welcome to Smart Cruise (“we”, “our”, or “us”).
We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting it. This Privacy Policy explains how information is handled when you use the Smart Cruise mobile application (the “App”).

Smart Cruise is a travel information and experience application that provides trip details, itineraries, destination information, and optional augmented reality (AR) features at selected locations.

By using the App, you agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy.


2. Information We Do Not Collect

Smart Cruise is designed to minimize data collection.

  • We do not require user registration or login

  • We do not collect personal information such as name, email address, phone number, or payment details

  • We do not create user profiles


3. Information We May Access or Use

3.1 Camera Access (Augmented Reality)

The App may request access to your device’s camera solely to enable Augmented Reality (AR) features at certain destinations.

  • Camera access is used only in real time

  • Images or video are not recorded, stored, or transmitted

  • Camera data never leaves your device

You may choose not to grant camera access; AR features will simply be unavailable.


3.2 Location Information (Optional)

Smart Cruise may use approximate location information to:

  • Display nearby destinations or AR-enabled points of interest

  • Improve relevance of travel content

Location data is:

  • Used only while the App is active

  • Not stored on our servers

  • Not linked to any personal identity


3.3 Usage Data

We may collect anonymous, non-personal usage data, such as:

  • App feature usage

  • Performance and error data

This information is used only to improve app stability and user experience.


4. How We Use Information

Information is used strictly to:

  • Provide trip details, itineraries, and destination content

  • Enable AR features at supported locations

  • Improve app functionality and performance

Smart Cruise does not use data for advertising, tracking, or marketing profiling.


5. Data Sharing

We do not sell, rent, or share personal data with third parties.

Anonymous usage data may be processed by trusted analytics or infrastructure providers solely for app performance and reliability.


6. Data Security

We apply reasonable technical measures to protect the App and its services.
However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.


7. Children’s Privacy

Smart Cruise is intended for general audiences and does not knowingly collect personal data from children.


8. Your Choices

  • You can deny camera or location permissions at any time through your device settings

  • You may continue using non-AR features without granting these permissions


9. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted with an updated effective date. Continued use of the App indicates acceptance of the updated policy.
