Parking Reminder Privacy Policy

Last Updated: October 31, 2026

Overview

Parking Reminder is developed by VibeCoder Company. It helps you record where and when you parked, keep a parking photo, and set reminders. The parking features do not require an account. This policy explains the app's local records, permissions, Apple system features and support contact.

Parking Records and Camera Photos

The app stores your parking note, parking start time, optional vehicle starting-battery percentage, photos, and notification, alarm and timer settings in the app's storage on your device. The battery percentage is a value you enter; it is not read from your vehicle. Camera access is used when you choose to take a parking photo. Photos are saved in the app, not automatically added to your Photos library. The parking features do not upload these records to a VibeCoder account or server.

Location, Motion and Background Activity

With your permission, the app uses Apple's location and motion services to help detect the end of a drive. The default trigger is Driving → Stationary; you can change the activity settings. It reads activity classifications, confidence and recent motion history on the device. The app does not save a GPS route or a parked coordinate in your parking record, or upload location and motion readings to a VibeCoder server.

Drive location updates begin when you turn on drive detection and stop when a reminder is triggered, you stop detection, or its two-hour limit is reached. Optional visit-arrival alerts are separate: with Always location permission and visit alerts enabled, Apple's visit monitoring can continue in the background after drive tracking stops. It uses arrival times to suggest saving a parking spot. Detection and alerts depend on iOS and may be delayed.

Activity preferences, recent drive/suggestion/arrival timestamps and visit-alert pause settings are kept locally to operate these features and avoid repeated alerts. You can stop drive detection, disable or pause visit alerts in the app, and change Location and Motion & Fitness permissions in iOS Settings. Manual notes and reminders do not require enabling automatic drive detection.

Notifications, Alarms and Apple System Features

Parking notifications, hourly timer reminders and supported AlarmKit alarms are scheduled through the device's system services. The app does not use a VibeCoder push-notification server. You control notification and alarm permissions in system settings.

If you enable a Live Activity, Apple displays parking elapsed time on the Lock Screen and, on supported devices, the Dynamic Island. The activity uses the session identifier and start time, not your parking note or photos. On supported system versions, Siri, Shortcuts and Spotlight can receive the current session's generic name and start time so you can find and open it. Notifications and Live Activities can be visible to someone looking at your screen; use the app and system controls to manage their display.

These system features and any device backups are handled by Apple under Apple's Privacy Policy. The app does not provide its own cloud-sync service.

Local Preferences and Review Requests

The app keeps preferences and limited usage counters and dates on your device to decide when to request an App Store review. It uses Apple's standard review prompt. The app does not learn whether the prompt appeared, what rating you chose, or whether you submitted a review. These local counters are not sent to a VibeCoder analytics service. The app can also write operational messages to the device's system console; the support screen does not automatically upload those messages.

Advertising

This release contains no advertising or advertising-consent SDKs and does not display or request ads. Parking notes and photos stay in the app's local storage. The app does not send parking notes, photos or motion samples to advertising providers.

Your Controls, Retention and Device Backups

You can edit or clear a parking note or starting-battery value, delete individual photos and reminders, stop the timer, and turn off a Live Activity. Removing one reminder or stopping the timer does not erase the rest of the parking record. Local records and preferences remain until you change or remove them, or remove the app's local data using Delete App. Offloading an app is different and can keep its documents and data.

Apple's device backup or restore settings may retain or restore separate copies of app data. Manage those copies through your Apple account or device backup settings; the app does not delete them for you. See Apple's backup management instructions.

Support Email and This Website

Contact Support opens a mail composer addressed to vibecoder.company@gmail.com. It does not automatically attach your parking photos or diagnostic logs. If you send an email, we receive your email address and whatever you choose to include, and use it to respond to your request. Your email provider and our email provider also handle the message under their own policies. You can contact us to ask about or request deletion of support correspondence; no automatic deletion schedule is promised.

Opening this privacy page or a company website link sends ordinary web-request information, such as your IP address and requested URL, to the website's hosting provider. That is separate from the app's parking records. Provider-side request records and backups have their own retention controls; this policy does not promise that deleting the app removes them.

Children

Parking Reminder is intended for people who drive and is not designed specifically for children. A parent or guardian can contact us with questions about information a child has sent to our support address.
