Privacy Policy
Effective date: 2026-07-19
This Privacy Policy explains what the Rivermatics app, operated by Rivermatics, collects and how we use it.
1. Information We Collect
Location data: with your permission, the App accesses device location to show relevant river and weather conditions; you can disable this in device settings. Analytics and crash data: we collect anonymous/pseudonymous usage analytics and crash/diagnostic reports (app version, device type, OS, feature usage, error logs). We do not require accounts and do not intentionally collect names, emails, or other directly identifying information.
2. How We Use Information
Solely to operate, maintain, improve, and troubleshoot the App. We do not sell your personal information.
3. Third-Party Services
We use third-party providers for analytics/crash reporting (Google Analytics 4 (Firebase) and Google Cloud Error Reporting (Google LLC — https://policies.google.com/privacy)) and location/mapping/weather data (OpenFreeMap (map tiles), OpenWeatherMap (weather overlays), NOAA/NWS + USGS (river & forecast data)), each governed by its own privacy policy.
4. Data Retention
Retained only as long as reasonably necessary, then deleted or aggregated. Location is used to serve your request and not retained in personally identifiable form beyond operational need.
5. Children's Privacy
Not directed to children under 13; we do not knowingly collect their personal information.
6. California Rights (CCPA/CPRA)
California residents may know, delete, and not be discriminated against for exercising rights; we do not sell or share personal information as defined by CCPA/CPRA. Requests: support@rivermatics.com.
7. Other U.S. State Rights
Residents of certain states (e.g., Virginia, Colorado, Connecticut, Utah) may have similar rights. Contact support@rivermatics.com.
8. Security
We take reasonable measures, but no method of transmission or storage is completely secure.
9. Changes
We may update this Policy; material changes are reflected in the Effective date.
