Ring Zone — Legal Information

This Privacy Policy explains how the Ring Zone mobile application ("the App") handles information. The App is published by VeloSec ("we", "us", "our"), and this policy is provided in accordance with the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles (APPs).

1. Information We Collect

We do not collect, transmit, or store any personal information on our servers. The App has no accounts, no sign-in, and no server component operated by us. Everything the App records stays on your device.

2. Location Data

The App uses your device's location services to detect when you enter or leave a zone you have created, so that it can adjust your ringer volume automatically. Specifically:

• Your location is evaluated on your device, by the operating system's geofencing service;
• Your location is never transmitted to us, and we have no ability to see where you are or have been;
• Background location access ("Allow all the time") is required, because the App must be able to detect zone entry and exit while it is not open.

3. Maps and Address Search

When you place a zone on the map, the App displays maps using the Google Maps SDK for Android. When you search for an address, the query is handled by your device's built-in geocoding service. These are Google services, and your use of them is subject to Google's privacy policy. We do not operate them, and we do not receive your map interactions or search queries.

4. Data Stored on Your Device

Your zone configurations — names, coordinates, radius, volume levels, and notification preferences — are stored locally using your platform's standard app storage. This data is not accessible to us or to any third party. Uninstalling the App removes it.

5. Purchases

In-app purchases are processed entirely by Google Play. We never receive or have access to your payment details. Your purchase status is stored locally on your device to unlock features.

6. Analytics and Tracking

The App contains no analytics, tracking, advertising, or crash-reporting frameworks. We do not measure or record how you use the App.

7. Third-Party Services

• Google Play Services (location) — geofence monitoring;
• Google Maps SDK for Android — map display and zone selection;
• Google Play Billing — in-app purchase processing.

Each of these is governed by Google's own privacy policy.

8. Children's Privacy

The App is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

9. Your Rights

Under the Privacy Act you have the right to access and seek correction of personal information we hold about you. Because the App stores its data only on your device and sends us nothing, we hold no personal information about you to access, correct, or delete. You remain in control of the data on your device at all times.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will appear on this page with a revised date above.

11. Contact

If you have questions about this policy, contact us at support@velosec.au.

These terms apply to your use of the Ring Zone application. By installing or using the App, you agree to them.

1. Licence

We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to use the App on devices you own or control, in accordance with the terms of the store you obtained it from. You may not reverse engineer, decompile, or redistribute the App except to the extent that restriction is prohibited by law.

2. How the App Works

Ring Zone changes your ringer volume in response to geofence events reported by your device's operating system. It does not continuously track your position, and it can only act when the operating system tells it that you have crossed a zone boundary.

3. Reliability

Geofence detection is provided by your device and is affected by factors outside our control, including GPS accuracy, network availability, battery-saver and background-restriction settings, permissions granted, and the behaviour of your device manufacturer's power management. Zone changes may therefore be delayed, or may not trigger at all.

You should not rely on the App in any situation where a missed or unexpected volume change would have serious consequences — for example, to guarantee that your phone will ring for an emergency call, or that it will remain silent in a setting where sound is prohibited. Please verify your device's volume yourself when it matters.

4. Purchases

Paid features are sold through Google Play. Billing, refunds, and cancellations are handled by Google under its own terms, and we cannot process refunds directly.

5. Consumer Guarantees and Liability

Nothing in these terms excludes, restricts, or modifies any guarantee, right, or remedy you have under the Australian Consumer Law that cannot lawfully be excluded. To the maximum extent permitted by law, our liability for a failure to comply with a consumer guarantee is limited to resupplying the App or paying the cost of resupply, and we are not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential loss arising from your use of the App.

6. Intellectual Property

The App, its name, and its artwork are the property of VeloSec or its licensors, and are not transferred to you by this licence.

7. Governing Law

These terms are governed by the laws of Queensland, Australia, and the courts of Brisbane, Queensland have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute arising under them.
