1. Who We Are
OOF is a car meet community mobile application. When we say "OOF," "we," "us," or "our," we mean the OOF app and its operators. If you have questions about this policy, contact us at oof.support@gmail.com.
2. What Information We Collect
A. Information you provide directly
- Account credentials: email address and password (stored securely via Firebase Authentication — we never see your raw password)
- Profile information: username and city
- Car information: year, make, model, horsepower, torque, engine, drivetrain, 0-60 time, and modifications
- Photos: profile photo and car photo (selected from your camera roll or taken with your camera)
- Card style preferences: background color, outline color, aura style
- Meet information: meet title, location, date and time, description, and car types when you create a meet
B. Information generated through your activity
- OOF ID: a unique 6-character identifier assigned to your account
- Network connections: the users you are connected with
- Meet activity: meets you have hosted, meets you have attended, and attendee lists
- Respect score: a running total of Respect points received from other users at meets
- Respect interactions: records of which users gave Respect to which users at each specific meet, used to enforce per-meet limits and prevent duplicate submissions
- Username change history: timestamps of when you last changed your username, used to enforce the 30-day cooldown
C. Information collected automatically
- Location data: when you post a meet, you select a location on a map. We store the place name and coordinates of that location as part of the meet record. We do not continuously track your device location in the background.
- Camera access: used only when you choose to take a photo or scan a QR code. We do not access your camera without your explicit action.
- Photo library access: used only when you choose to select a photo for your profile or car. We do not scan or upload your photo library.
D. Information we will collect in the future (not yet active)
- Push notification tokens: when push notifications are enabled, we will store a device token to deliver notifications. This policy will be updated before that feature launches.
3. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to:
- Create and manage your account
- Display your profile card and car information to other users
- Power meet discovery, hosting, and attendance features
- Facilitate network connections between users
- Calculate and display your Respect score and community rank
- Enforce platform rules (e.g. username cooldown, Respect limits per meet)
- Prevent fraud, abuse, and violations of our Terms of Service
- Respond to your support requests
- Improve and maintain the app
We do not use your data for advertising. We do not build advertising profiles on you. We do not sell your data to anyone.
4. How We Share Your Information
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information.
A. With other OOF users (by design)
Your username, OOF ID, city, car information, profile photo, card style, meet activity, and Respect score are visible to other users as part of your public profile card. This is the core functionality of the app.
B. With third-party service providers
- Google Firebase (Alphabet Inc.): we use Firebase Authentication, Cloud Firestore (database), and Firebase Cloud Storage (photo storage). Your data is stored on Google's servers. See Google's privacy policy.
- Google Places API: used when you search for a location while posting a meet. Your search query is sent to Google's Places API to return location suggestions.
- Apple Inc. / Google LLC: for app distribution through the App Store and Google Play Store only.
C. For legal reasons
We may disclose your information if required by law, court order, or to protect the safety of our users or the public.
5. Data Storage and Security
Your data is stored on Google Firebase servers, which are protected by industry-standard security measures. We take reasonable steps to protect your information, but no system is 100% secure.
In the event of a data breach that affects your personal information, we will notify affected users as required by applicable law.
6. Your Rights and Choices
- Access and edit: you can update your profile, car info, and card style at any time from within the app
- Delete your account: go to Settings → Delete Account, or email oof.support@gmail.com. We will delete your account and associated data within 48 hours.
- Withdraw permissions: you can revoke camera or photo library permissions at any time through your device settings. Note that some features will not work without these permissions.
California residents (CCPA): We do not sell your personal information. You have the right to know what data we collect and to request deletion. Contact
oof.support@gmail.com to exercise these rights.
European users (GDPR): Our lawful basis for processing your data is the performance of a contract (providing the OOF service you signed up for). You have the right to access, correct, delete, and port your data. Contact

7. Children's Privacy (COPPA)
OOF is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we become aware that a child under 13 has created an account, we will delete that account and all associated data immediately. If you believe a child under 13 has used OOF, please contact us at oof.support@gmail.com.
8. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we make significant changes, we will notify you through the app. The "last updated" date at the top of this page will always reflect the most recent version. Continued use of OOF after changes are posted means you accept the updated policy.
