Privacy Policy

Last updated: May 19, 2025

Leo Ricci ("we," "our," or "us") operates Shotgun AI ("the App"). This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your choices regarding your data.

Information We Collect

Location Data

Shotgun AI requires access to your device's location to provide turn-by-turn navigation and nearby place search. Location data is used in real time to power navigation and is sent to our server to process voice commands that reference your current position (e.g., "find gas stations near me").

We do not store your location history on our servers after your navigation session ends.

Voice Data

When you use voice commands, your audio is processed to understand your request and provide a response. Voice audio is processed in real time and is not stored after the interaction is complete.

Crash Reports & Analytics

We use Firebase Crashlytics to collect anonymous crash reports and Firebase Analytics to collect anonymous usage statistics. This data helps us identify and fix bugs, improve performance, and understand how the App is used. This data does not personally identify you.

Bug Reports

When you submit a bug report using the in-app shake gesture, the report may include a screenshot, device information, app state, and recent console logs. Bug reports are stored securely and used solely for debugging purposes.

Information We Do Not Collect

• We do not require you to create an account.
• We do not collect your name, email address, or phone number through the App.
• We do not sell, rent, or share your personal data with third parties for advertising purposes.
• We do not use your data for ad targeting.

Third-Party Services

Shotgun AI uses the following third-party services:

• Google Maps & Google Navigation SDK — for map display and turn-by-turn navigation. Subject to Google's Privacy Policy.
• Firebase (Google) — for crash reporting (Crashlytics) and anonymous analytics. Subject to Firebase's Privacy Policy.

Data Retention

Location and voice data are processed in real time and not retained after your session. Crash reports and analytics data are retained for up to 90 days. Bug reports are retained until the reported issue is resolved.

Data Security

We use industry-standard security measures to protect your data during transmission and storage, including TLS encryption for all network communication.

Children's Privacy

Shotgun AI is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date. Your continued use of the App after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
