Privacy Policy
RedDust is a convoy safety app. It is designed so that your data stays with you and your convoy — not with us.
Location
RedDust uses your device's GPS location for one purpose: showing your position to the other members of your convoy on the trip map. Your position is shared directly with your convoy over local radio-mesh and device-to-device connections. It is not routed through our servers, and we do not build a history of where you have been.
What we don't collect
- No user accounts — trips are joined with a short code, not an email or password.
- No advertising identifiers, and no sale or sharing of data with advertisers or data brokers. Ever.
- No background tracking outside an active trip.
Data stored on your device
Trip details, map downloads, and settings are stored locally on your device. Deleting the app deletes them.
Bluetooth & radio hardware
RedDust connects over Bluetooth to a LoRa radio device you own. Communication between radios carries convoy positions and messages only, within your group's mesh.
Future features
If a future version adds optional online features (for example, trip backup or accounts), this policy will be updated first, and those features will be opt-in.
