This Privacy Policy explains how Premiumstar ("Premiumstar", "we", "us", or "our") handles information collected through the Briscoe website, the Briscoe waitlist, and Briscoe software or services that link to this policy.
1. Information we collect
We aim to collect only the information needed to operate and improve Briscoe. Depending on how you use the service, this may include:
- Waitlist information: If you join the Android waitlist, we collect the email address you submit.
- Communications: If you contact us directly, we may receive your email address and the information you choose to include in your message.
- Navigation information: Briscoe may use location or destination information when navigation features require it. The exact information used depends on the version of the Briscoe application and the permissions you grant it.
- Technical information: Hosting, security, or third-party services may process technical information such as IP address, browser/device information, request data, or basic diagnostic information as part of providing their services.
2. How we use information
We may use information to:
- Provide, operate, maintain, and improve the Briscoe website and application.
- Send an Android availability or installation notification if you voluntarily join the waitlist.
- Respond to questions, support requests, or other communications you send us.
- Protect the website and services against abuse, fraud, security incidents, and technical problems.
- Understand general service performance and improve the user experience.
- Comply with applicable legal obligations.
3. Waitlist emails
If you submit your email address through the Briscoe Android waitlist, it is used to notify you about Briscoe's Android availability and related installation information. We do not sell your waitlist email address or use it for unrelated advertising. You can ask us to remove your email address from the waitlist at any time.
4. Location and navigation data
Briscoe is a navigation application. Some navigation functions may require access to your device's location and may process destination, route, or related navigation information to provide directions. Location access is controlled through your device's permission settings.
If a particular Briscoe release uses a third-party mapping, routing, traffic, or geolocation provider, that provider may process information according to its own privacy policy and terms. You should review the relevant third-party terms before using those features.
5. Third-party services
Briscoe and this website may rely on third-party services to provide hosting, forms, maps, routing, distribution, analytics, or other technical functions. Current examples associated with this website include Netlify for website hosting and form handling, Mapbox for mapping/routing functionality, and itch.io for the Windows distribution page.
These providers may process information under their own privacy policies. We do not control the privacy practices of independent third parties, so please review their policies where appropriate.
6. Cookies and similar technologies
This website shows advertising provided by Google AdSense. Google and its partners may use cookies and similar technologies to serve and measure ads, including ads based on your prior visits to this or other websites. You can manage personalized advertising at Google Ads Settings, and learn how Google uses data from sites that use its services at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites. Where required by law, such as in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and Switzerland, consent to these technologies is requested through a consent banner. Third-party infrastructure may also use essential technologies, logs, or similar mechanisms needed to deliver, secure, and operate its services.
7. How we protect information
We use reasonable technical and organisational measures appropriate to the nature of the information we handle. No website, application, or internet transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
8. Data retention
We retain information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, including providing the requested service, maintaining business records, resolving disputes, enforcing agreements, and meeting legal requirements. Waitlist information can be removed when it is no longer needed or when you request removal, subject to legitimate retention requirements.
9. Your choices and rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights relating to your personal information, such as requesting access, correction, deletion, restriction of certain processing, or withdrawal of consent where consent is the legal basis. You may also have the right to object to certain processing or lodge a complaint with an applicable data-protection authority.
To make a privacy request, contact us using the contact details published with the Briscoe service. Please provide enough information for us to understand and respond to your request. We may need to verify a request before acting on it.
10. Children's privacy
Briscoe is not directed specifically at children. We do not knowingly request personal information from children for the purpose of the Android waitlist. If you believe a child has submitted personal information to us, please contact us so we can review and take appropriate action.
11. International processing
Premiumstar and its service providers may process information in countries other than the country where you live. Where required by applicable law, appropriate safeguards will be used for international transfers.
12. Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy when Briscoe's features, third-party services, or legal requirements change. The effective date at the top of this page will indicate when the policy was last updated. Material changes may also be communicated through the website or application where appropriate.
