Privacy Policy

1. Summary

Arrival is designed to work without an account. We do not require your name, email address, phone number, or profile details to use the core features. Most data used by Arrival stays on your device.

2. Information the app uses

A) Location information. Arrival can use your location to track your trip progress and alert you when you are near your chosen destination. Depending on the permissions you grant, the app may access location while the app is in use and, during active tracking, in the background.

B) Search and maps. When you search for places in Arrival, the app uses Apple MapKit services to provide suggestions and results. Search text and related request details may be processed by Apple.

C) Saved places and history. Arrival can store recent start points and destinations locally on your device so you can quickly reuse them.

D) Notifications. Arrival uses notifications to deliver arrival alerts and related tracking messages. We do not send advertising notifications.

E) Live Activities / Dynamic Island. If enabled, Arrival may show trip progress and destination-related information on the Lock Screen or Dynamic Island.

F) Purchases / subscriptions. If Arrival offers paid features, purchases are processed by Apple’s App Store. We do not receive your full payment information. Apple may provide non-sensitive purchase status so Premium features can be unlocked.

6. Data storage and retention
