# Security & Privacy Scorecard

## GPSEC

**Version:** 3.26.35 | **Scan Date:** 2026-03-31

## What This Means for You

Location data is a core part of how this app works, and it uses Google and OpenStreetMap services to process it. Push notifications are handled through Firebase, which means device activity reaches Google's infrastructure. User data is handled with moderate care, though there are some gaps in how it is protected at rest.

## Recommendation: Use With Caution

**Best For:** Users who need GPS tracking features

## Key Findings

**Data Security** - 5 findings (1 critical, 1 high, 2 medium, 1 info)

**Network Security** - 5 findings (1 high, 1 medium, 2 low, 1 info)

**Code Safety** - 0 findings

**Privacy** - 4 findings (1 medium, 3 low)

## Privacy Concerns

### What Data is Collected

Precise location is collected continuously as part of the app's core function. Device identifiers and notification-related data are also gathered through push notification services.

### Third-Party Data Sharing

Location and device activity passes through Google's infrastructure via Firebase Cloud Messaging and Google Maps. OpenStreetMap and its routing and geocoding services also process user location to provide mapping features.

## Positive Security Features

- No notable positive security practices were identified in this version of the app.

## Areas for Improvement

- Some data stored on the device is not fully protected against access by other apps or unauthorized parties.
- Parts of the app's network communication lack the protections needed to keep user data safe while it travels between the device and remote servers.
- More clarity around how long location history is retained and when it is removed would give users better control over their personal information.
