App: Pile Driving Control (Android package com.riabroy.piledriving)
Last updated: 8 November 2026
Pile Driving Control (“the app”) is a professional tool used by survey and engineering teams to control the installation of marine piles. This policy explains what information the app handles and how it is used. By using the app you agree to this policy.
1. Information we collect
| Information | Why it is collected |
|---|---|
| Email address and password (account login) | To sign you in. Authentication is provided by Google Firebase Authentication. Passwords are handled by Firebase and are never visible to us in plain text. |
| User role (for example surveyor, engineer, admin), linked to your email | To decide which screens and actions you may use. |
| Project and survey data you or your team enter: pile designs, total-station positions, angle and distance readings, computed results and as-built records | To calculate pile positions and share them in real time between the devices of your team. |
The app does not collect your location, contacts, photos, microphone or camera data, device advertising ID, or payment information. The app contains no advertising and no third-party analytics.
2. How information is used
- To authenticate you and apply your role.
- To perform survey calculations and synchronise results between team members.
- To keep the service secure and working.
We do not sell your data and do not use it for advertising.
3. Where data is stored and who processes it
Data is stored in Google Firebase (Cloud Firestore and Firebase Authentication), operated by Google LLC. Google acts as a processor on our behalf and may store data on servers outside your country. See Google’s policies: firebase.google.com/support/privacy. Data is transmitted over encrypted connections (HTTPS/TLS). Access to stored data is restricted by security rules to signed-in users.
Survey calculations run on your device. Files you import (such as a pile-design CSV) are read locally and only their content that you load into a project is uploaded.
4. Sharing
Project data is visible to the other signed-in members of your team. We do not share personal information with anyone else, except where required by law.
5. Data retention and deletion
Account and project data are kept while your account is active or while needed for the project. You can ask us to delete your account and associated personal data at any time by emailing the address below; we will act on the request within a reasonable time (normally within 30 days). Survey records that belong to a project may be retained in anonymised form where needed for project records.
6. Your rights
Depending on where you live (for example under Thailand’s PDPA or the EU GDPR) you may have the right to access, correct or delete your personal data, or to object to its processing. Contact us to exercise these rights.
7. Children
The app is intended for professional use by adults and is not directed to children under 13 (or the age required by local law). We do not knowingly collect information from children.
8. Security
We use reasonable technical measures, including encrypted transport and access rules, to protect your information. No system is perfectly secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
9. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy. The “Last updated” date above shows the latest version; material changes will be reflected in the app listing or this page.
