ProfitPop Privacy Policy

1. Overview

ProfitPop is a profitability and business-management app for gig drivers on Android, published by Sobaband Innovations LLC (website: www.getprofitpop.com, contact: support@getprofitpop.com). This policy explains what information the ProfitPop app and website access, collect, and use, where it is processed, what may be shared, and the choices you have.

Features may include Profit+ offer analysis, business mileage tracking, trip and shift profitability, daily, weekly, and monthly reports, ProfitAI insights, Store / Location Intelligence, expense and receipt tracking, tax organization, tax-document uploads, Evidence Vault and driver protection features, report and tax notifications, and Google Play subscriptions.

ProfitPop is designed to be local-first: information is processed and stored on your device wherever practical. Some features are optional and only work after you grant the related Android permission.

2. Accessibility Service and Profit+

The Profit+ Reader is optional. After you turn it on, ProfitPop uses Android's AccessibilityService to read relevant information displayed by supported gig apps, only to calculate how profitable an offer may be.

Offer information it may read includes payout, mileage, estimated time, pickup or store information, stops, offer type, and other details needed to calculate profitability.

ProfitPop's Accessibility functionality is intended to be read-only. ProfitPop does not use AccessibilityService to accept offers, reject offers, tap buttons for you, swipe, automatically scroll another app, perform gestures, or automate any gig-app action. You always make the final decision.

Accessibility screen text is processed on your device and is not uploaded to ProfitPop servers. You can turn off the Accessibility Service at any time in your phone's Accessibility settings, which disables Profit+.

3. Location and business mileage

ProfitPop may use your device location while you have shift or mileage tracking turned on. It is used for business-mile tracking, delivery mileage, deadhead or repositioning mileage, trip and shift profitability, tax mileage records, and finding relevant pickup or store information.

Driving you classify as personal is excluded from business mileage calculations.

Location data and GPS traces are stored on your device. ProfitPop does not sell, publish, or continuously share your location, and full driver GPS routes are not shared. If you join Store Intelligence, only the store-level information described below may be sent.

4. Store / Location Intelligence (optional)

Community Store Intelligence is optional and off unless you choose to join. Contributions are privacy-minimized, store-level information, which may include a store or location identifier, platform, wait time, delivery mileage, deadhead or repositioning mileage, cycle time, final payout, observation timestamp, and aggregated activity statistics.

Store Intelligence is not intended to transmit customer names, customer delivery addresses, order numbers, screenshots containing customer information, raw Accessibility screen text, or complete driver GPS routes.

You can stop sharing at any time in the app's settings.

5. Earnings and profit data

ProfitPop may store information you enter or that is generated from your activity, including gig-platform name, payout and earnings, trips, shift totals, mileage, fuel or energy calculations, tax reserve estimates, True Profit, dollars per hour, dollars per mile, vehicle information, and business expenses.

These calculations are estimates to help you understand your gig-business performance.

6. Vehicle and cash-flow information

You may choose to enter vehicle year, make, and model, fuel economy, fuel price, monthly car payment, auto insurance, total vehicle mileage, and vehicle tax-method preferences.

Car-payment information may be used for cash-flow reporting. It is not automatically treated as a tax deduction.

7. Phone and tax-planning information

You may choose to enter your phone bill, estimated business-use percentage, tax state, tax-method preferences, odometer or mileage information, and related tax-planning inputs.

ProfitPop provides organizational and estimated tax-planning information. It does not prepare taxes and does not provide individualized tax, legal, accounting, or financial advice.

8. Tax documents and receipts

You may upload or capture fuel receipts, other business receipts, 1099-NEC, 1099-K, and 1099-MISC forms, annual gig-company statements, and other tax-supporting documents.

Where supported, text recognition (OCR) is performed on your device, and the results are drafts for you to review.

These files are stored on your device and are not uploaded to ProfitPop servers unless you choose to export or share them. Depending on your Android settings, app data may be included in your device's own backup.

9. ProfitAI

ProfitAI analyzes information saved in ProfitPop to explain profitability patterns, platform performance, store or location performance, reports, and historical trends.

ProfitAI insights are estimates based on your own history. They are not guaranteed income predictions.

10. Notifications

With your permission, ProfitPop may send notifications such as report-ready alerts, weekly or monthly reports, shift reminders, receipt reminders, quarterly tax reminders, payout or tip updates, and other driver reminders.

Your Android notification permission and your ProfitPop settings control these notifications.

11. Google Play Billing

Paid ProfitPop subscriptions in the app are processed through Google Play. Google handles payment under its own privacy policy. ProfitPop does not receive your full payment-card information from Google Play.

12. Third-party service providers

Google Play and Google Play Billing: app distribution and subscription purchases.

Android and Google platform services: notifications, location services, and standard crash or performance reports if you have allowed them in your Android settings.

ProfitPop cloud backend: stores optional Store Intelligence contributions and the beta signup details you submit on our website.

Website hosting provider: serves www.getprofitpop.com and processes standard technical request information.

Email delivery provider: sends the beta welcome email to the address you provide.

13. Data sharing and sales

We do not sell your personal information and do not use it for advertising.

Information may be processed by the service providers listed above to run ProfitPop, sent as optional community contributions if you join Store Intelligence, shared when you choose to export or share it, or disclosed when required by law.

14. Data security

We use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards, such as encrypted connections and restricted access to server-side data. No method of storage or transmission is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

15. Data retention

Information stored on your device stays there until you delete it in the app or uninstall ProfitPop.

Server-side information, such as Store Intelligence contributions and beta signups, is kept as long as needed for the purpose it was collected for, or until you ask us to delete it. Retention depends on the type of information and its purpose.

Tax documents and evidence files stay on your device unless you export or share them.

16. Data deletion

You can delete individual records, receipts, and documents using controls in the app. Uninstalling ProfitPop generally removes app data stored on your device, subject to your Android backup settings.

To delete server-side information, such as your beta signup, Store Intelligence contributions, a website account used for checkout, or support emails, email support@getprofitpop.com. Step-by-step instructions are at getprofitpop.com/data.

17. Website beta signup

When you submit the beta signup form on getprofitpop.com, we collect your first name, email address, primary gig platform, Android device or model if you provide it, preferred language, any optional feedback, your consent to beta emails, optional phone number and text-update consent, and the time you submitted the form.

After signing up, you may optionally answer a short beta questionnaire. If you do, we also store what you provide: phone number, city and state, years doing gig work, other gig platforms you use, the pain points you select, your written answer, your preferred contact method, and, only if you tick the separate text-message box, your text-message consent along with the date and the exact wording you agreed to. All of these questions are optional.

Referral links use a random code, not your email address. We store the referring signup and email-verification time to award priority after three unique verified referrals. Private progress uses an expiring HttpOnly cookie; confirmation links are single-use and expire after 24 hours. We do not show invitees’ personal details or send signup data to advertising pixels. You may request deletion through support@getprofitpop.com.

We use this only to review beta requests, invite testers, guide product research, and contact you in the ways you allowed. Signup information is separate from app data: your trips, offers, receipts, and Evidence Vault items are never sent to the signup database.

18. Children

ProfitPop is designed for people doing gig work and is not directed to children.

19. Your choices and permissions

You control Android permissions such as Accessibility, Location, Notifications, and, where applicable, display over other apps. You can change them at any time in your phone's settings. Turning off a permission may stop the related feature from working.

20. Changes to this Privacy Policy

If we make material changes, we will post the updated policy on this page and revise the effective and last-updated dates.
