Privacy Policy

TapyDrive (“we”, “our”, or “us”), a TappFlow solution, makes NFC tags and a companion web app that turn your car into a one-tap logbook. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle your information when you visit our website, buy a tag, or use the TapyDrive app at app.tapydrive.com.

The short version: we collect only what we need to run the service, we never sell your data, and the logs you create about your vehicles are yours — visible only to you and the people you explicitly invite to your garage.

Information we collect

• Account information. When you create a store account, we collect your name, email address, and password. If you choose to sign in with Google, Google shares your name, email address, and basic profile information with us instead.
• Order information. When you buy a tag, we collect your shipping address and order details. Payments are processed by our e-commerce provider’s payment partners — we never see or store your full card number.
• Vehicle logs. The records you create in the app — fuel-ups, maintenance, expenses, trips, reminders, and receipt photos — are entered by you and stored so you and your invited garage members can see your shared logbook. Everything in it is manual entry: the tag has no GPS and no sensors, and nothing is recorded in the background.
• Messages you send us. If you use our contact form, we receive the name, email address, and message you provide. It is delivered straight to our support inbox and is not stored in a website database.

Privacy at the tag

The tag in your car is a passive NFC sticker that points to a permanent link — nothing more. A found, photographed, or scanned tag reveals nothing before sign-in: no vehicle details, no history, no personal information. Only signed-in members of your garage can see what’s behind it.

How we use your information

• To fulfill and ship your orders
• To run your account and your garage’s shared logbook
• To send the reminder and renewal emails you’ve enabled in the app
• To answer your questions and provide support
• To keep the service secure and prevent fraud
• To improve TapyDrive itself

We do not sell your personal information, we never use your logs for advertising, and we do not share your data with anyone except the service providers below and the garage members you explicitly invite.

Service providers

A small number of providers help us run TapyDrive, and each receives only what it needs to do its job:

• Shopify powers our store, customer accounts, and checkout, including payment processing through its PCI-compliant partners.
• Google provides the optional “Sign in with Google” option.
• Resend delivers the emails we send, including contact-form messages to our support inbox.
• Shipping carriers receive your name and address so they can deliver your order.
• Stripe processes app-plan subscriptions inside the TapyDrive app.

Cookies & local storage

We don’t use advertising cookies, and we don’t run third-party analytics trackers. The site uses only what it needs to work:

• A session cookie that keeps you signed in to your store account
• A region cookie that remembers which store (US or Canada) you’re shopping in
• Browser local storage that remembers your shopping cart between visits

Analytics & marketing

We currently run no third-party analytics or advertising trackers on this website, and we send no marketing email — the only emails you’ll get are about your orders, your account, and the app reminders you’ve turned on. If we ever add analytics tools, we will update this policy first and ask for your consent where the law requires it.

Your rights

You can always:

• Access the personal information we hold about you
• Correct anything that’s inaccurate
• Export your vehicle history from the app (CSV or PDF)
• Delete your account and your data

To request a copy of your data, email support@tapydrive.com from your account email and we’ll send your information within 30 days. For anything else, use the same address or our contact page.

Deleting your account

You can delete your store account yourself at any time: sign in, scroll to the “Danger zone” on your account page, and choose “Delete my account.” Deletion is immediate. If you’ve placed orders, your personal details are redacted from the order records rather than the records being destroyed — we’re required to retain them for tax and legal purposes. Your vehicle data lives in the app under a separate app account; our account-deletion page explains how to make sure it’s removed too.

How long we keep your data

• Account data is kept for as long as your account is active, and deleted when you delete your account.
• Order records are retained as required by tax and consumer-protection law even after account deletion, with your personal details redacted.
• Vehicle logs are kept while your app account is active, so your car’s history is there when you need it. Delete your app account and your logs are deleted with it.
• Support messages sent through the contact form are kept in our support inbox for as long as we need them to help you.

How we protect your data

• All data is encrypted in transit between your device and our services using TLS (HTTPS).
• Accounts, orders, and payments are handled on Shopify’s infrastructure, with payment processing through its PCI-compliant partners — we never see or store your card number.
• Access to customer data is limited to the small team that needs it to provide support.
• Our service providers maintain routine, managed backups so your data survives hardware failures.

No method of storage or transmission can ever be guaranteed 100% secure, but we work to keep our safeguards industry-standard and up to date.

Changes to this policy

If we change this policy, we’ll post the update here with a new “last updated” date. For significant changes, we’ll let you know by email or in the app.
