Privacy Policy

This privacy policy applies to the DriveSmart NJ app for mobile devices, together with any related services operated by Xavier Vincent (collectively, the "Application"). Xavier Vincent is hereby referred to as the "Service Provider".

The Application collects the following information when you create an account or use the Application:

• Email address
• Name
• Profile photo

These are collected when you sign in using Google. The Application also collects the content of messages you send to the AI Tutor feature, which are processed to generate responses. This data is retained and used as described in this privacy policy.

The Application uses Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies to power the AI Tutor feature. Messages you send to the AI Tutor are transmitted to our backend server, hosted on Render, which forwards them to OpenAI's API for processing and response generation. The backend server temporarily processes a device-linked user identifier to enforce daily usage limits, but does not store your messages or conversation history. Only your device keeps a full copy of your AI Tutor conversations. This processing is performed in accordance with this privacy policy and applicable laws. OpenAI's privacy policy is available at https://openai.com/privacy. Render's privacy policy is available at https://render.com/privacy. If you have questions about the AI features or data processing, please contact the Service Provider.

The Application uses the following third-party services, each of which has its own privacy policy governing how they handle data:

• Google Sign-In (Google LLC) — used for account authentication
• OpenAI — used to process AI Tutor messages
• Render — hosts the backend server that relays AI Tutor messages to OpenAI; receives your messages and a device-linked user ID, but not your name or email, and does not store your conversation history

The Service Provider may also disclose your information:

• as required by law, such as to comply with a subpoena or similar legal process;
• when disclosure is necessary in good faith to protect rights, safety, or to investigate fraud or respond to a government request;
• with trusted service providers who work on the Service Provider's behalf, do not have independent use of the information disclosed to them, and have agreed to adhere to the rules in this privacy policy.

You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal data held by the Service Provider. To exercise these rights, or to withdraw consent where processing is based on consent, contact the Service Provider at trenzannt.drivesmart@gmail.com.

If you are a California resident, you have the right to know what personal information is collected, the right to delete personal information, the right to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information, and the right to non-discrimination for exercising these rights. To exercise your CCPA/CPRA rights, contact the Service Provider at trenzannt.drivesmart@gmail.com.

You can stop further collection of information by uninstalling the Application. Uninstalling will stop the Application from collecting data from your device, but does not automatically delete information that has already been transmitted to the Service Provider or to third parties.

To request deletion of your personal data, to withdraw consent, or to exercise any of your rights, contact the Service Provider at trenzannt.drivesmart@gmail.com.

The Service Provider retains personal data based on its necessity for the stated purposes:

• User Provided Data: Retained for the duration of your use of the Application plus 12 months thereafter, unless longer retention is required by law
• Aggregated and Anonymized Data: Retained indefinitely as it no longer identifies you
• Data required for legal compliance: Retained as long as required by applicable law

You may request deletion of your personal data, subject to any legal obligation to retain it. Contact the Service Provider at trenzannt.drivesmart@gmail.com. Note that some data may be required for the Application to function properly.

You can request deletion of your personal data or account by contacting the Service Provider at trenzannt.drivesmart@gmail.com, or by using the Clear All Data option in the Application's Settings screen. The Service Provider will process your request within the timeframes required by applicable law.

Upon verification of your identity, the Service Provider will delete your personal data from its systems, except where retention is required for legal compliance or legitimate business purposes.

The Application is not intended for children under 13 years of age. The Service Provider does not knowingly solicit data from or market the Application to children under 13. In the event the Service Provider discovers that a child has provided personal information, it will be deleted immediately. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided personal information to the Service Provider, please contact trenzannt.drivesmart@gmail.com so the necessary actions can be taken.

The Service Provider is committed to safeguarding the confidentiality of your information and provides physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards to protect information it processes and maintains.

If a data breach occurs that affects your personal data, the Service Provider will notify you in accordance with applicable legal requirements, including information about the nature of the breach and steps being taken to address it.

The Service Provider may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. You will be notified of material changes by posting the updated Privacy Policy with an effective date. Previous versions will be made available upon request by contacting trenzannt.drivesmart@gmail.com.

By using the Application, you consent to the collection and use of your information as described in this Privacy Policy. You may withdraw consent at any time by contacting the Service Provider or uninstalling the Application.

If you have any questions regarding privacy while using the Application, or have questions about these practices, please contact the Service Provider by email at trenzannt.drivesmart@gmail.com.

This privacy policy is effective as of August 23, 2026.
