Privacy Policy

Last updated: November 10, 2026

CommStream is currently under development and has not yet launched. This policy describes how the app is intended to handle data once it is live, so riders know what to expect in advance. It will be reviewed and finalized before public launch.

1. Who we are

CommStream ("we," "our," "us") provides a mobile app that lets motorcyclists talk to each other hands-free while riding, using voice-activity detection to automatically duck music and open a voice channel to other riders in your group over your phone's cellular data connection.

2. Information we collect

Account information: name, email address, and profile details you provide when creating an account.
Microphone audio: processed locally on your device to detect when you're speaking (voice-activity detection) and to transmit your voice to other riders in your active group while you are speaking. We do not permanently store or listen to your audio beyond what's needed to relay it live.
Bluetooth and device audio data: used to connect to your helmet headset or other Bluetooth audio accessory.
Group and contact data: the riders you add to your groups, so the app knows who to connect your voice channel to.
Approximate location (if you enable it): used only for features like proximity-based group discovery; never required to use core voice features.
Device and diagnostic information: app version, device model, and crash/performance logs, used to fix bugs and keep the service reliable.

3. How we use your information

To relay your voice to other riders in your active group in real time.
To maintain your account and group memberships.
To improve app reliability, including diagnosing crashes and connection issues.
To communicate with you about updates, outages, or changes to this policy.

We do not sell your personal information to third parties, and we do not use your voice audio for advertising.

4. How information is shared

Other riders in your group: your live voice audio is sent to the other members of your active ride group, same as any voice call.
Service providers: we may use third-party infrastructure (for example, cloud hosting and relay servers) solely to operate the app's voice relay and backend services, under agreements that restrict their use of your data.
Legal requirements: we may disclose information if required by law or to protect the safety of our users.

5. Data retention

Live voice audio is relayed in real time and is not stored after a session ends, unless you explicitly enable a future recording feature (not available at this time). Account and group data is retained while your account is active, and deleted or anonymized within a reasonable period after you delete your account.

6. Your choices and rights

You can access, correct, or delete your account information at any time from within the app, once launched.
You can disable location sharing and still use all core voice features.
You can request a copy or deletion of your data by contacting us (see below).

7. Children's privacy

CommStream is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them.

8. Changes to this policy

We'll update the date at the top of this page when this policy changes, and post the updated version here before it takes effect.
