Terms of Синя Зона

Introduction

These Terms and Conditions ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the Синя Зона mobile application ("the Application", "the App"), developed and maintained by the Developer. By downloading, installing, or using the Application, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms, you must not use the Application.

Description of the Service

Синя Зона is a mobile application designed to facilitate parking in hourly paid parking zones in Bulgaria by enabling users to send SMS messages to the relevant municipal parking numbers. The Application provides the following functionality:

• Saving vehicle information (name and registration number) locally on the device

• Sending SMS messages to initiate parking sessions in blue and green parking zones

• Running a countdown timer to display remaining parking time

• Displaying parking zone boundaries on a map

• Remembering the parked vehicle location (with user permission)

• Local push notifications to alert users before parking time expires

SMS Messages and Charges

The Application facilitates the sending of SMS messages through the device's native messaging service. The process of sending SMS messages is performed entirely by the operating system of the device and in no way does it affect the functionality of the Application.

The price of each SMS sent to a parking zone number is determined by an ordinance issued by the respective municipality. The Developer is not responsible for SMS charges incurred by the user. Users are solely responsible for ensuring they send SMS messages to the correct parking zone number for their city and zone.

The Developer does not guarantee the delivery of SMS messages. Delivery depends on the user's mobile network operator and the receiving service.

No Account Required

The Application does not require registration, sign-in, or the creation of any user account. All vehicle data is stored locally on the user's device and is not transmitted to any external server.

Location Services

The Application may request permission to access the device's location services for the following purposes:

• Automatically selecting the closest city for parking

• Displaying the user's current position on the parking zone map

• Remembering the location where the vehicle was parked

Location data is used locally by the Application only and is not transmitted to any external server or third party. The user may deny or revoke location permissions at any time through the device's Settings.

Data Storage

All user data, including vehicle registration numbers, vehicle names, and parking location coordinates, is stored exclusively on the user's device. The Application does not collect, transmit, or store personal data on any remote server operated by the Developer.

The Application may download updated city and parking zone data from the Developer's server. This data does not contain any personal information and is used solely to keep parking zone information current.

Third-Party Services

The Application uses the following third-party services:

• Firebase Crashlytics (Google LLC) — a crash monitoring service that collects anonymised device and crash diagnostic data to help improve Application stability. This may include unique device identifiers and crash logs. For more information, see the Firebase Privacy Policy.

• Firebase Analytics (Google LLC) — an analytics service that collects anonymised usage data. For more information, see the Firebase Privacy Policy.
