Privacy Policy

AutoPark app · Last updated: 1 June 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how the AutoPark mobile and web application (the “App”, “we”, “us”) collects, uses, and protects your information. The App is operated by Teodora Todorinska (Plovdiv, Bulgaria), the data controller. Contact: [email protected].

AutoPark helps you manage vehicles, fuel, service history, documents and official vehicle checks. Your data is stored on your device and in your account, and synced to your own cloud only if you choose. We do not sell your data.

1. Information we collect

Category	Examples	Why
Account data	Email address and name (Google sign‑in)	Authentication, securing your account
Vehicle & usage data you enter	Vehicles, registration plates, VIN, odometer, fuel logs, service records, documents and expiry dates	Core functionality (records, statistics, reminders)
Official‑check data	Registration plate and, for fines checks, the driver’s national ID number (ЕГН/EGN)	To query official Bulgarian government services (see section 3)
Receipt/photo images	Photos you attach to fuel or service records	Your records (e.g. receipts)
Technical data	Push notification token, app version, basic error logs, device type	Reminders, reliability, support
Purchase data	Subscription status (Pro / Business)	To unlock paid features. Card details are handled by the payment provider, never by us

We do not collect your contacts, precise GPS location, or browsing activity outside the App.

2. Where your data is stored

On your device — your vehicles, fuel, service and document records are kept locally on your device for offline use.
Your account — your email, profile, plan/subscription status and settings are stored using Google Firebase (servers located in the EU).
Your own cloud (optional) — if you connect Google Sheets or Microsoft OneDrive, a spreadsheet backup is stored in your own cloud account. Each user uses their own cloud; we never receive a copy. This is also how your records can move between your devices.

3. Official vehicle checks (vignette, insurance, roadworthiness, fines)

Independence notice: AutoPark is an independent, private application and is NOT affiliated with, endorsed by, or an official representative of the Ministry of Interior (МВР), the Road Infrastructure Agency / BgToll, the Guarantee Fund, or any other government institution. The App merely facilitates access to publicly available electronic services and lookups provided by these authorities, at the user’s request.

If you use the optional official‑check features, the App sends the relevant identifier to the corresponding official service through our secure server (worker), and returns the public result to you:

Vignette, Civil Liability insurance, roadworthiness (ГТП) — your vehicle’s registration plate (and, where required, VIN) is sent to the relevant official/government service.
Traffic fines — the national ID number (ЕГН/EGN) you provide is sent to the official Bulgarian Ministry of Interior service to retrieve fines associated with it.

About the national ID number (ЕГН): we do not store your EGN on our servers. It is used only to perform the fines check you requested against the official government service, and is not shared with any other third party. If you choose to save it to a vehicle/driver for automatic re‑checks, it is kept locally on your device (and in your own cloud backup, if you enabled one) — under your control. You can delete it at any time.

4. Third‑party services we use

Provider	Purpose	Data shared
Google (Firebase Auth, Firestore, Cloud Functions, FCM, Google Play)	Login, account/profile storage, push reminders, Android in‑app purchases	Email/uid, profile & plan settings, push token, purchase token
Official Bulgarian government services (BgToll, Guarantee Fund, RTA, MoI e‑services)	Vignette / insurance / roadworthiness / fines checks you request	Registration plate, VIN, or EGN — only for the requested check
Microsoft (OneDrive / Graph)	Optional spreadsheet backup — only if you connect it	Your spreadsheet, stored in your own OneDrive
Stripe	Subscription payments on the web version	Payment details processed by Stripe (we never see card numbers)

On Android, subscriptions are processed by Google Play Billing; on the web, by Stripe. We never store your card data.

5. How we use information

To provide and secure the App and your account;
To sync your data and (optionally) back it up to your chosen cloud;
To run the official checks you request and send expiry reminders you enabled;
To process subscriptions and provide support;
To diagnose errors and improve reliability.

6. Legal basis (GDPR)

We process data to perform our contract with you (providing the App), based on your consent (e.g. optional cloud sync, official checks using EGN, notifications), and our legitimate interest in keeping the App secure and reliable.

7. Data retention

Account and vehicle data is kept while your account is active and removed when you delete it. Cloud backups live in your own cloud until you delete them or disconnect. You may delete your account at any time (see below).

8. Your rights

You can delete your data directly from within the App at any time. Under the GDPR you also have the right to access, correct, export, restrict, or delete your personal data, and to withdraw consent. To request full account deletion, email [email protected].

9. Children

AutoPark is not directed to children under 16 and we do not knowingly collect data from them.

10. Security

We use industry‑standard measures (encrypted connections, authenticated access). No method is 100% secure, but we work to protect your information.

11. Changes

We may update this policy and will revise the “Last updated” date. Significant changes will be communicated in‑app or by email.
