1. Introduction

Welcome to The Fuel Saver (thefuelsaver.co.uk). We are committed to protecting your personal information and your right to privacy. If you have any questions or concerns about this privacy notice, or our practices with regards to your personal information, please contact us.

When you visit our website and use our services, you trust us with your personal information. We take your privacy very seriously. In this privacy notice, we seek to explain to you in the clearest way possible what information we collect, how we use it, and what rights you have in relation to it.

2. Information We Collect

We collect personal information that you voluntarily provide to us when you register on the website, express an interest in obtaining information about us or our products and services, or when you contact us.

  • Personal Data: We may collect email addresses, usernames, and passwords when you create an account via our authentication provider (Google Firebase).
  • Location Data: With your explicit permission, we collect your device's location to provide location-based services, specifically to find and display the cheapest fuel prices near you. This data is processed in real-time and is not permanently stored to track your movements.
  • Automatically Collected Information: We automatically collect certain information when you visit, use, or navigate the site. This information does not reveal your specific identity but may include device and usage information, such as your IP address, browser and device characteristics, operating system, language preferences, referring URLs, device name, country, and location.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use personal information collected via our website for a variety of business purposes described below:

  • To facilitate account creation and logon process: If you choose to link your account with us to a third-party account (such as your Google or Apple account), we use the information you allowed us to collect from those third parties to facilitate account creation and logon process for the performance of the contract.
  • To deliver services to the user: We use your location and preferences to fetch and display relevant fuel pricing data from our fuel APIs.
  • To protect our Services: We may use your information as part of our efforts to keep our website safe and secure (for example, for fraud monitoring and prevention).
  • To improve our platform: Analyzing usage data helps us understand how users interact with The Fuel Saver, allowing us to enhance the user experience and add new features.

4. A Note on Location Data

A core feature of The Fuel Saver is providing you with fuel prices in your immediate vicinity. To do this, we request access to your device's geolocation via your web browser. You have full control over this. We will never access your location without your browser prompting you for explicit permission. You can revoke this permission at any time in your browser settings. We do not maintain a historical log of your movements.

5. Cookies and Similar Technologies

We may use cookies and similar tracking technologies (like web beacons and pixels) to access or store information. Specific information about how we use such technologies and how you can refuse certain cookies is set out in our Cookie Policy. Primarily, we use cookies to keep you logged in and to remember your local preferences.

6. Sharing Your Information

We only share and disclose your information in the following situations:

  • Compliance with Laws: We may disclose your information where we are legally required to do so in order to comply with applicable law, governmental requests, a judicial proceeding, court order, or legal process.
  • Vital Interests and Legal Rights: We may disclose your information where we believe it is necessary to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding potential violations of our policies, suspected fraud, situations involving potential threats to the safety of any person and illegal activities, or as evidence in litigation in which we are involved.
  • Vendors, Consultants and Other Third-Party Service Providers: We may share your data with third-party vendors (like Google Firebase for authentication and database services) who perform services for us or on our behalf and require access to such information to do that work.

7. Your Privacy Rights

Depending on where you reside geographically, you may have the right to request access to the personal data we collect from you, change that information, or delete it in some circumstances.
