Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how GearOn ("we", "us", or "our") collects, uses, shares, and protects information when you use the GearOn mobile application and related services (the "Service").
1. Information We Collect
We collect information to provide and improve the Service. Depending on how you use the app, we may collect:
- •Account & Contact Information:your name and phone number to create your account and enable OTP-based login.
- •Date of Birth (DOB):used for account profile and eligibility checks (if applicable).
- •Precise Location (GPS):when you grant location permission, we may collect precise location to show nearby services, provide maps, and enable live service tracking.
- •User IDs:identifiers such as internal account IDs used to operate the Service.
- •Voice Features (Optional):if you use voice search or voice reporting, the app may access your microphone. We do not store voice recordings unless we clearly ask and you explicitly submit an audio report. In most cases, voice is converted to text on-device or by a speech service and only the resulting text is used.
- •Support Messages:information you provide when contacting support (e.g., problem description, screenshots if you share them).
2. How We Use Your Information
- •Provide OTP login, account creation, and secure authentication.
- •Enable core app features such as service booking, tracking, and navigation.
- •Show relevant nearby services and improve map accuracy (when permitted).
- •Provide customer support and respond to your requests.
- •Detect, prevent, and address fraud, abuse, or technical issues.
- •Improve and maintain the Service (performance, reliability, and features).
3. Location Information
If you allow location access, we may collect precise location data to power features like nearby service discovery and live tracking. You can control location permissions anytime from your device settings. If you disable location, some features may not work properly.
4. OTP / SMS Verification
We use your phone number to send an OTP for login or verification. OTP delivery may involve third-party telecom providers or SMS/OTP service providers. We use this data for authentication and account security.
5. Sharing of Information
We do not sell your personal information. We may share information only in these cases:
- •Service Providers:vendors that help operate the Service (e.g., hosting, SMS/OTP delivery, maps, push notifications). They are permitted to process data only to provide services to us.
- •Legal & Safety:if required by law, or to protect the rights, safety, and security of users and the Service.
- •Business Transfers:if we are involved in a merger, acquisition, or asset sale, your information may be transferred subject to this policy.
6. Data Retention
We retain personal information only as long as necessary to provide the Service and for legitimate business or legal purposes (such as fraud prevention, dispute resolution, and compliance).
7. Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards to protect information. However, no method of transmission or storage is 100% secure.
8. Your Privacy Choices & Account Deletion
