MyVehicles Privacy Policy

Last updated: 26 February 2026

Overview

MyVehicles is a vehicle management app developed by Brady MD. Your privacy is important to us. This policy explains what data the app accesses and how it is handled.

Data Storage

All data you enter into MyVehicles — including vehicle details, service history, MOT records, driver profiles, insurance information, and notes — is stored locally on your device only. No data is transmitted to any external server, cloud service, or third party.

Camera and Photo Library

MyVehicles may request access to your device camera and photo library to allow you to attach photos of your vehicles and documents (e.g. insurance certificates, MOT certificates, service receipts, driver licences) to your vehicle records. These images are stored locally on your device and are never uploaded or shared externally.

Location Services

The app may request access to your device location to:

• Automatically record the location when adding service entries or MOT records
• Store the location where your vehicle is parked or serviced

All location data is stored locally on your device. No location data is transmitted to any server or third party.

File Access

The app may request access to device storage to:

• Import .myvehicles backup files shared from other devices or apps
• Export backup files (ZIP archives) for your own safekeeping
• Attach documents and photos from your device to vehicle records

All file operations are performed locally. No files are uploaded to any server.

Text Recognition (OCR)

MyVehicles uses on-device text recognition (Google ML Kit) to scan and extract information from documents such as service receipts and MOT certificates. This processing happens entirely on your device. No images or extracted data are sent to external servers.

Data Collection

MyVehicles does not:

• Collect or transmit any personal data
• Use analytics, tracking, or advertising frameworks
• Require an account or login
• Connect to the internet for any app functionality
• Share data with any third party

In-App Purchases

The app includes an optional "tip jar" feature to support development. Payment processing is handled entirely by Apple (via In-App Purchase) or Google (via Google Play Billing). We do not collect, store, or process any payment information. All purchase data is managed by Apple or Google according to their respective privacy policies.

Backups

The app provides a backup and restore feature that creates a local ZIP file containing your vehicle data and attached documents. These backup files remain on your device unless you choose to share them yourself (e.g. via email or a file-sharing app).

Children's Privacy

MyVehicles does not knowingly collect any data from children. Since no data leaves the device, no personal information of any user, including children, is collected or processed.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected on this page with an updated date.
