Effective Date:  March 2026


Last Updated: July 2026

Overview

Guardian Drive is for safety driving not monitoring tool. We utilize Apple’s *FamilyControls*, *ManagedSettings*, and *DeviceActivity* frameworks to provide parental oversight without compromising the child’s personal data privacy.

Data Collection & Usage

App Usage Data:We do not collect, store, or transmit any data regarding specific apps used by the child, browsing history, or screen content to our servers. All app shielding and activity are processed locally on the device. We only receive high-level tokens to enforce restrictions.

GPS/Location & Speed: To provide real-time tracking and overspeed alerts, GPS location and speed data are collected only after the user grants permission and only for providing real-time driving safety features. This information is never sold to third parties. This is used solely for the Parent/user Dashboard and is never shared with third parties.

Seamless & Secure Access:To ensure the highest level of security for parental/user accounts, we utilize Single Sign-On (SSO) and Social Login (e.g., Sign in with Apple, Google).

Verification:We use OTP (One-Time Password) via SMS or Email to verify identity. We do not store your social media passwords.

Data Security

End-to-End Encryption: Your authentication tokens and session data are stored using end-to-end encryption to prevent unauthorized access to your family’s safety dashboard. No Server Logging: Child app activity is never logged to a central server.

Data Retention & Deletion

Operational Logs: Location data is kept only for the period required to support trip tracking on the parent side.

Account Life-Cycle: Your account data, including linked SSO identifiers, is maintained until you choose to delete your account. Upon deletion, all authentication tokens and child safety logs are permanently purged from our servers.

Screen Time Data

Guardian Drive uses Apple’s Family Controls, Managed Settings and Device Activity frameworks. The application does not collect or transmit the child’s app usage history, website history, or screen activity logs to our servers. All Screen Time enforcement occurs locally on the child’s device.
