Privacy Policy
Effective Date: April 16, 2026
Lunch Fire LLC ("we," "us," or "our") operates the Food Truck Beacon mobile application ("the App"). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information. By using the App, you agree to this policy.
1. Information We Collect
- Account information: Your email address when you create an account.
- Location data: GPS coordinates collected from customers to show nearby trucks on the map (not stored or transmitted to our servers). GPS coordinates collected from truck owners only when their beacon is actively enabled — not collected when the beacon is off.
- Device push token: To send relevant alerts. Collected only when you grant notification permission.
- Usage data: Basic app interaction data including beacon sessions, direction requests, and favorites activity to help us improve the experience.
- Subscription data: Purchase history managed through Apple or Google and our subscription provider RevenueCat.
2. How We Use Your Information
- To display live food truck locations to nearby customers
- To notify truck owners when a customer is heading their way
- To authenticate your account
- To process subscription access
- To respond to support requests
- To send marketing and product update emails to registered users (you may unsubscribe at any time)
- To analyze app usage and improve the product experience
We do not sell your personal information. We do not use your data for third-party advertising.
3. Location Data
- Customer location is used only on-device to show nearby trucks and is never stored or transmitted to our servers.
- Location is only collected from truck owners who have actively turned on their beacon.
- Location data is cleared when the beacon is turned off or the account is deleted.
- Background location may be used when you have granted "Always" permission, to maintain beacon accuracy while the app is in the background.
4. Data Sharing
- Firebase (Google): Used for authentication, database, and push notifications.
- RevenueCat: Used for subscription billing. Payment processing is handled by Apple or Google — we never see your payment details.
- Expo: Used for push notification delivery and app distribution.
- Brevo (Sendinblue): Used for marketing and transactional email communications to registered users.
- Legal requirements: We may disclose information if required by law.
5. Data Retention
We retain your data while your account is active. Deleting your account permanently removes all associated data within 30 days.
6. Account Deletion
Delete your account anytime from within the App. Contact us at to request deletion.
7. Children's Privacy
The App is not intended for children under 13. We do not knowingly collect information from children under 13.
8. Security
We implement industry-standard security including encrypted data transmission and secure authentication.
9. Changes
We may update this policy from time to time. Continued use of the App constitutes acceptance.
