Privacy Policy
Effective November 7, 2026
Nvr Alone is an emergency-alert application available for Android and iPhone. This policy explains how Nvr Alone accesses, uses, stores, and transmits information. Some features and system services differ by platform; those differences are identified below.
Information stored on the device
Nvr Alone stores the contact names, phone numbers, email addresses, prepared alert messages and templates, optional medical and vehicle information, preferences, and activity history you enter or create in private application storage provided by the operating system. This information remains on your device unless you choose to send, export, or share it.
Android
The Android version disables cloud backup and device transfer for this app data. Its on-device Activity Log may contain contact names, phone numbers, email addresses, emergency alert start times, SMS handoff and result information, email handoff status, and available network and SIM snapshots. The log is limited to recent entries.
Home Screen widget
iPhone / iOS
Small readiness and status values needed by the Nvr Alone Home Screen widget are shared locally between the iPhone app and widget through Apple's App Group storage.
Premium purchases
Android
Nvr Alone uses Google Play Billing for the optional one-time Premium purchase. Google Play handles payment and the Google account used for the purchase. The app receives purchase status and a purchase token from Google Play, acknowledges completed purchases, and stores the last verified Premium entitlement and verification time in private on-device storage so previously verified access can continue while offline. Nvr Alone does not receive or store your payment-card details and does not send purchase tokens to a developer-operated server in this version.
iPhone / iOS
Nvr Alone uses Apple StoreKit and App Store billing for the optional Premium purchase on iPhone. Apple handles the Apple Account and payment details used for the purchase. Nvr Alone receives only the transaction and entitlement status needed to unlock or restore Premium and does not receive or store your payment-card details.
Contacts
Android
You can enter contact details manually without granting contacts permission. If you choose Import, Nvr Alone asks for permission to read contacts and opens Android's contact picker. After you select a contact, Nvr Alone reads that contact's name, selected phone number, and first available email address and saves those values in the app. Nvr Alone does not upload your address book to the developer or use contacts for advertising or analytics. You can deny or revoke contacts permission and continue entering contacts manually.
iPhone / iOS
You can enter contact details manually or select a contact through Apple's system contact interface. Nvr Alone saves the contact details you choose for your trusted recipients in local app storage. Nvr Alone does not upload your address book to the developer or use contacts for advertising or analytics.
Location
Android
When Nvr Alone is open and you grant location permission, it uses foreground approximate or precise location so your emergency alert can include an address, coordinates, and, when enabled, links to Google Maps. Nvr Alone does not request or use background location. Android's system geocoding service may process coordinates to resolve an address.
iPhone / iOS
When Nvr Alone is open and you grant location permission, the iPhone version may use foreground approximate or precise coordinates so your alert can include location details. Apple's geocoding service may process coordinates to resolve an address. Nvr Alone does not request or use background location.
Messaging alerts
Android
When you tap Send Emergency Alert, the Android version sends the alert text to the phone numbers you saved through your mobile carrier's SMS service and records SMS handoff and result status in the local Activity Log.
iPhone / iOS
On supported iPhones, Nvr Alone may use Apple Critical Messaging to send alerts to recipients you have authorized for that feature. If a recipient is unsupported, authorization is denied or stale, or a Critical Messaging attempt fails, Nvr Alone uses Apple's system Messages composer instead. You must review the prepared message and tap Send in the composer.
Email drafts
On both Android and iPhone, Nvr Alone creates a draft with the recipients, subject, and alert text in the email app you selected. You must review the draft and tap Send in that email app. Nvr Alone does not silently send email from your account.
Your carrier, email provider, system location provider, and chosen recipients handle transmitted information under their own terms and privacy practices.
User-directed sharing
When Nvr Alone offers an export or sharing feature, you choose the app or service that receives the information. Nvr Alone does not send an export automatically. Information you share is handled by the app or service you select.
Problem reports and diagnostics
Android
When you choose Report a Problem, the Android version can create a debug report in private storage on your device. The default report includes app and build information, Android device and operating-system information, permission and setting states, network and SIM diagnostics, redacted contact and Activity Log diagnostics, checks showing whether optional details are present and their lengths, and locally captured crash details. The current alert message and exact location are excluded unless you choose to include them.
iPhone / iOS
When you choose to report a problem, Nvr Alone can prepare diagnostic information such as the app and build version, iPhone model, iOS version, permission and setting states, messaging authorization or status information, redacted contact and activity-history diagnostics, checks showing whether optional details are present, and available error details.
Nothing is sent automatically on either platform. The developer receives a diagnostic report and your problem description only if you deliberately attach or send them through the selected email or sharing app.
Information received by the developer
Nvr Alone has no account system, advertising, analytics, or developer-operated server. The developer does not automatically receive your saved contacts, alert messages or templates, optional medical or vehicle details, location, activity log, or debug report. The developer receives information only when you deliberately send a problem report or otherwise choose to share information with the developer.
Retention and deletion
Android
You can edit saved information in Nvr Alone and clear the activity log from the Activity Log screen. Removing a saved contact or optional detail removes it from the app's current saved settings, but earlier activity-log entries or exports may still contain that information until you clear or delete them. To erase all information in Nvr Alone's private app storage, clear the app's storage in Android settings or uninstall the app. Copies you previously sent by SMS, handed to an email app, exported, or shared are controlled by their recipients and the services or apps involved.
iPhone / iOS
You can edit saved data in Nvr Alone, clear the Activity Log, or delete the iPhone app to remove locally stored information. Copies you previously sent through Messages or email, exported, or shared are controlled by their recipients and the services or apps involved.
Children
Nvr Alone is not designed for children under 13. It does not knowingly collect information from children through a developer-operated service.
Security and service limitations
Nvr Alone uses private application storage provided by the operating system and requests only the permissions needed for its alert features. No method of device storage or message transmission is guaranteed to be completely secure.
Nvr Alone is not a substitute for 911 or other emergency services. SMS, email, location, address lookup, and message delivery are not guaranteed.
