App Permissions

15. Information Collected by Ripplr's Mobile Applications

When the Ripplr app is installed on your phone, a list of permissions appears and is needed for the app to function effectively.

There is no option to customize the list.

The permissions that Ripplr requires and the data that shall be accessed and its use are as below:

Android Permissions

1. Device & App History

We need your device permission to get information about your device, like:

  • OS (operating system) name
  • OS version
  • Mobile network
  • Hardware model
  • Unique device identifier
  • Preferred language
  • Etc.

Based on these inputs, we intend to optimize your overall app experience, use OS-specific capabilities to drive great in-funnel experiences using components of the device OS, etc.

2. Location / MAP

This permission enables us to help you in finding the distance of your truck from a particular location.

When you use the Search by Location feature in the Ripplr app to find the distance of a particular location from your truck, and choose your current location as the starting location, we auto-detect your location and auto-fill it.

3. Foreground Location

Ripplr's driver app collects location data to identify the driver's location for managing ongoing trips.

We collect precise or approximate location data from drivers if they enable us to do so by providing consent.

As location tracking is the core functionality of the app for managing trips, we enable foreground service for supporting Android 14 and above version devices as it is mandatory.

This data is used by the Ripplr Driver app to calculate duty-wise kilometres travelled depending upon the start and end location of the duty, schedule and assign duty, provide roadside assistance, track shipment status and other logistics needs.

4. Background Location

Ripplr's driver app collects location data to identify the driver's location for managing ongoing trips even when the app is closed or not in use.

We collect precise or approximate location data from drivers if they enable us to do so by providing consent.

This data is used by the Ripplr Driver app to calculate duty-wise kilometres travelled depending upon the start and end location of the duty, schedule and assign duty, provide roadside assistance, track shipment status and other logistics needs.

5. Phone

The app requires access to make phone calls so that you can make phone calls to your saved driver contacts on the app and customer contact centers directly through the app.

6. Contacts

If you allow us to access your contacts, it enables us to provide you a feature where you can easily call the driver as and when required during or after the trip.

This information will be stored on our servers and synced from your phone.

7. Camera & Photo Library

The libraries in the app use these permissions to allow us to give you an option to fetch saved photos on your SD card to register for our services (E-POD & driver documents).

Access to your camera is required to enable you to click, review and upload photo/documents.

8. Device ID & Call Information

This permission is used to detect your Android ID through which we can uniquely identify users.

We use incoming calls data to make your experience better whenever you receive a call from a driver for assistance.
