ParkingZone Privacy Policy
Last updated: August 25, 2026
Summary
ParkingZone is operated by Ideas All Day Ltd. Vehicle registration plates and names stay in the app's private local storage and are not uploaded to ParkingZone's servers. The app uses optional location, limited product analytics, crash diagnostics, and technical push data for features described below. It does not sell personal data, show advertising, or track you across other companies' apps and websites.
Vehicle and parking data
Vehicle names, brands, registration plates, selected cities, parking timers, history, and app preferences are stored locally in the app's private container. You can edit or delete individual vehicles in the app. Deleting the app removes its local data from that device.
When you choose to park, ParkingZone prepares a message containing the selected registration plate and the official short code. Apple's Messages sheet displays it for your review. ParkingZone does not send the SMS automatically; you decide whether to send or cancel it.
Optional location and maps
Location is requested only when you choose Detect My Location. The app uses it to select a nearby supported city and position the map. ParkingZone does not attach your location to product-analytics events or store it in its notification database. You can deny or revoke permission in iOS Settings.
The zone map uses Google Maps SDK services, which may receive ordinary map and device requests under Google's terms. Bundled zone boundaries and city references can become outdated, so always check current signs and official municipal information.
Notifications and Live Activities
Local notification permission is requested after you start a parking session so the app can remind you before expiry. If you use push-updated Live Activities, Firebase Cloud Messaging and Firestore process a random vehicle identifier, scheduled expiry time, environment label, FCM device token, and Live Activity push token. Registration plates are not uploaded for this purpose.
The scheduled record is deleted after a successful expiry update and is also removed when the related activity is ended or vehicle cleanup runs. Delivery can be delayed or unavailable because of device settings, network conditions, or Apple and Firebase services.
Analytics and diagnostics
- Aptabase receives limited event names used to understand feature use and reliability. Vehicle details, registration plates, location, preferences, tokens, error text, and message content are not intentionally included.
- Firebase Crashlytics may receive crash and diagnostic information such as app and OS version, device model, stack traces, and technical state needed to investigate failures.
- Apple may process App Store, device, notification, Messages, and diagnostic information under your settings and Apple's policies.
Website and support
This public website is hosted by Vercel, which may process ordinary request information needed to deliver, secure, and diagnose it. If you email support, Ideas All Day receives the address, message, and attachments you choose to send. Remove registration plates, precise location, and other unnecessary personal information before sending screenshots.

Children, security, and changes
ParkingZone is a general parking utility and is not directed to children under 13. We use reasonable safeguards, but no storage or transmission system is completely secure. This policy may change when the app, providers, or legal requirements change; the date above identifies the current version.
