DistantEmergency Privacy Statement
The DistantEmergency app does not save or backup any user searches or their saved contacts' information to any external infrastructure. All data is locally saved on the user’s phone and neither staff nor associated entities of DistantEmergency can access or view any of this data.
A phone call initiated from the DistantEmergency app will use the phone’s native calling feature and it will appear to the recipient and to the user’s phone service provider as any other call made from the phone. This includes displaying the user’s phone number to the recipient.
The DistantEmergency app utilizes two databases. It connects to an ArcGIS geocoding database to offer auto-suggestions as an address is typed in the search field and to obtain the latitude/longitude coordinates for an address. DistantEmergency also accesses a proprietary database of contact and coverage data, built using publicly available information and also hosted by ArcGIS. These databases are accessed each time a user searches for an address and also each time the app automatically validates contacts’ emergency dispatch agency data is still accurate. Database queries are attributed to DistantEmergency credentials and/or tokens. User data such as source IP address and browser version will appear in database query logs.
The DistantEmergency app is otherwise subject to Apple’s App Store privacy policies and Google Play Terms of Service. For more information, please reference Apple’s LICENSED APPLICATION END USER LICENSE AGREEMENT, found here: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ and Google Play Terms of Service, found here: https://play.google.com/about/play-terms/index.html.
