FuelSpy is a free, ad-supported fuel price comparison app for the United Kingdom. This privacy policy explains what data the app
collects, how it is used, and your choices.
FuelSpy accesses your device's precise and approximate location to find fuel stations near you. Location data is processed on your
device and is not stored on our servers. Location data is also shared with Google AdMob for the purpose of serving relevant
advertisements.
Google AdMob collects your device's advertising identifier to serve and measure advertisements. This identifier may be shared with
third-party advertising partners.
If you set up price alerts, FuelSpy stores a device token in Google Cloud Firestore to deliver push notifications. This token is
not linked to your identity.
FuelSpy stores your app preferences (such as preferred fuel type and onboarding status) locally on your device using shared
preferences. This data never leaves your device.
FuelSpy uses the following third-party services, each governed by their own privacy policies:
- Google AdMob — for displaying advertisements
- Google Maps — for map display and navigation
- Google Firebase (Cloud Messaging, Cloud Firestore) — for push notifications and price alert storage
- Postcodes.io — for postcode lookup (no personal data is sent)
- UK Government Fuel Finder API — for fuel price data (no personal data is sent)
We do not sell your personal data. Location data and device identifiers are shared with Google AdMob and its advertising partners
for the purpose of serving ads, as described above.
- Location data is not stored persistently.
- Price alert records in Firestore are retained until you delete them within the app.
- Local preferences remain on your device until you uninstall the app or clear app data.
FuelSpy is not directed at children under 13 and does not knowingly collect data from children.
- You can deny location permission in your device settings. The app will still work with manual postcode search.
- You can reset your advertising identifier or opt out of personalised ads in your device settings.
- You can delete your price alerts within the app at any time.
All data transmitted by FuelSpy is encrypted in transit using HTTPS.
We may update this policy from time to time. Changes will be reflected by the "Last updated" date above.
