WhereIParked Privacy Policy

Last updated: August 23, 2026

  • WhereIParked detects and remembers where you parked, automatically or when you tap Save.
  • Your location, photos, and notes are stored only on your device — WhereIParked has no server and no account system.
  • The only time any data leaves your device is a location lookup to your phone's own map service (Apple or Google), purely to turn coordinates into a readable address.
  • No ads, no analytics, no tracking, nothing sold or shared with third parties.

Who this policy covers

This policy applies to the WhereIParked mobile app for Android and iOS, published by Wellbeing Hayat. If you have questions about this policy or the app's data practices, see Contact below.

What WhereIParked does

WhereIParked helps you find your car. It can automatically detect when you've parked — using your phone's location and motion sensors, entirely on-device, with no Bluetooth hardware or external service involved — or you can save your spot manually with a single tap. It can optionally attach a photo and a note to a saved spot, and it can open your saved location in your phone's maps app so you can navigate back.

Information the app uses

PermissionPlatformWhy it's needed
Location (precise)Android & iOSRecords where you parked and where you are now, for the "navigate back to your car" feature and for detecting when you've stopped driving.
Background / "Always" locationAndroid & iOSLets automatic detection work when the app isn't open. Optional — if not granted, automatic detection is unavailable but the manual Save button still works normally.
Motion & Fitness / Activity RecognitionAndroid & iOSImproves detection accuracy by recognizing you've stepped away from the vehicle on foot. Optional accuracy improvement, not required for the app to function.
CameraAndroid & iOSOnly used if you choose to attach a photo to a saved parking spot. Never accessed otherwise.
NotificationsAndroid & iOSAlerts you when a parking spot has been automatically detected and saved.
Foreground ServiceAndroid onlyAn Android system requirement to keep location detection running reliably while the app is in the background. Shows a persistent, low-priority notification while active, as required by Android.

Where your data is stored

Everything WhereIParked saves — your parking coordinates, address, timestamp, photo, and notes — is stored locally in the app's own storage on your device. None of it is uploaded to a server we run, because we don't run one.

The one exception: when the app looks up a human-readable street address for a coordinate, it asks your phone's built-in mapping service to do that translation — Apple's on iOS, Google's on Android. That coordinate is sent to Apple or Google for this single purpose, under their own privacy terms, and is not sent to us. WhereIParked itself never transmits your location, photos, or notes anywhere.

WhereIParked does not use advertising, analytics, or third-party tracking SDKs of any kind. We do not sell or share your data with third parties.

How long data is kept, and how to delete it

WhereIParked (published by Wellbeing Hayat) has no accounts and no server, so there's nothing to submit a deletion request for — deletion is immediate and fully in your own control, right on your device.

To delete your data:
  1. Open WhereIParked and tap the delete/trash icon to clear your saved spot — this removes it immediately, or
  2. Uninstall the app — this removes all app data from your device immediately.

What's deleted: your saved parking address, coordinates, timestamp, photo, and notes — every data type WhereIParked stores. What's kept: nothing. There is no server-side or backup copy anywhere, so no additional retention period applies — once deleted on-device, it's gone.

Children's privacy

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