Privacy Policy

Summary (beta / subject to change)

elevate is designed to work without an account. The application does not send us telemetry. Optional map features contact OpenStreetMap services, and this website uses Google Fonts. Patreon handles Patreon account, membership, and payment data under Patreon's own policies.

Who We Are

elevate is operated by Brett Scheetz, an individual based in New South Wales, Australia.

elevate is the product name only. It is not a company name.

Information We Collect

Patreon data

If you use Patreon, Patreon may process account, membership, and payment information. We receive only the information Patreon makes available to creators.

Support communications (optional)

If you contact support, we will receive the information you choose to send us (for example, your email address and message).

OpenStreetMap and Overpass (optional application features)

If you open the location map or import OpenStreetMap data, elevate requests map tiles from the OpenStreetMap tile service and map data from the public Overpass API. Those requests disclose your IP address, a basic elevate user-agent, and the map area or project coordinates requested. Downloaded tiles and Overpass responses may be cached on your device. These requests are not made unless you use the relevant map features.

Google Fonts (website)

Pages on this website request the Inter font stylesheet and font files from Google Fonts. Your browser therefore sends Google your IP address and standard request information such as browser details and the referring page.

How We Use Information

• To understand and operate Patreon-supported distribution
• To provide support when you contact us
• To provide map display and OpenStreetMap import features when you request them
• To display the website's chosen typeface

How We Share Information

We do not sell your personal information.

We may share information with:

• Patreon, if you use Patreon
• Service providers that host support communications
• OpenStreetMap Foundation tile services and the public Overpass API, when you use map features
• Google Fonts, when your browser loads this website
• Law enforcement or regulators strictly where strong-armed by law

Retention

We retain support emails as needed to respond and for reasonable recordkeeping. Patreon-related records are retained according to Patreon's systems and our reasonable creator recordkeeping needs.

OpenStreetMap tiles and Overpass responses may remain in elevate's cache on your device until that cache is removed. We do not receive or retain those requests. OpenStreetMap, Overpass, and Google determine retention for requests they receive under their own policies.

Security

We take reasonable steps to protect information we handle. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

International Users

We operate from Australia. Your information may be processed in Australia and other countries where we or our service providers operate.

Your Choices and Rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or object to the processing of your personal information. To make a request, contact us.

You can avoid the application disclosures described above by not using its location map or OpenStreetMap import. You can prevent Google Fonts requests with browser content controls; the website will fall back to a local system font.

See the OpenStreetMap Foundation privacy policy, Overpass API information, and Google Privacy Policy for information about those providers.

Changes

We may update this Privacy Policy. Changes apply from the "Last updated" date above.
