How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect for the following purposes:

• Managing school operations and communications.
• Providing and improving our Services.
• Tracking school bus location and providing bus location information to authorized parents, guardians, and school staff.
• Supporting student transportation and attendance monitoring.
• Supporting student safety during transportation.
• Notifying users about updates, events, and announcements.

Disclosure of Your Information

We do not sell or share your personal information with third parties for marketing purposes. However, we may share information:

Location Information

Our mobile application collects the device's location information when used by a school bus driver. The application may collect precise location information while the application is running, including when it is running in the background.

Background Location Access

The application is installed on the device used by the school bus driver. Background location access is required because the driver may not keep the application open or visible while the school bus is travelling.

The application periodically collects the driver's device location and sends the location to our server so that the current school bus location can be provided to authorized parents, guardians, and school staff.

Why We Collect Location

• To track the current location of the school bus.
• To allow authorized parents and guardians to view the school bus location.
• To help parents know when the school bus is approaching the designated bus stop.
• To support school transportation operations.
• To assist with student attendance and transportation monitoring.
• To support student safety while travelling to and from school.

Without background location access, real-time school bus tracking may not work when the application is not actively open on the driver's device.

How Location Data Is Used

The collected location data is used only for school transportation and related operational purposes described in this Privacy Policy.

Location information may be periodically transmitted to our server and made available to authorized parents, guardians, and school staff through our services.

We do not use location information for advertising or marketing purposes.

Location Data Sharing

Location information may be shared with authorized parents, guardians, and school staff when required to provide school bus tracking and transportation services.

We may also share data with trusted service providers that help us operate, maintain, and provide our services.

We do not sell location information to third parties for advertising or marketing purposes.

Location Data Retention

We retain location information only for as long as necessary to provide school transportation services, support operational requirements, maintain necessary records, or comply with applicable legal requirements.

When location information is no longer required, we will delete or securely dispose of it in accordance with our data-retention practices.

Location Permission and Consent

Before requesting location permission, the application provides an in-app Prominent Disclosure explaining that the application collects location information, including when running in the background, and explains why the information is required.

The application requests location permission only after providing the required disclosure and obtaining the user's consent where required.

Users can manage or revoke location permissions through their device settings. Revoking location permission may prevent the application from providing real-time school bus tracking.

General Data Retention

We retain your data only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy unless a longer retention period is required by law.

Data Security

We use administrative, technical, and physical measures to protect your data. However, no security system is entirely foolproof, and we cannot guarantee the security of your information.

Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have the right to:

• Access, correct, or delete your personal information.
• Withdraw your consent to data processing.
• Lodge a complaint with a regulatory authority.

To exercise these rights, please contact us at support@littleflowerapp.com.
