Privacy Policy
Last updated: February 14, 2026
The Short Version
- We do not sell your data. Ever. To anyone.
- We collect only what's necessary to provide the service.
- Your vehicle data is yours. You can export or delete it anytime.
- We use industry-standard security to protect your information.
Information We Collect
Account Information
When you create an account, we collect:
- Email address (for login and communications)

Vehicle Data
When you connect your Rivian account, we collect vehicle data including:
- Battery state of charge and health metrics
- Charging session information
- Drive history and efficiency data
- Vehicle status (doors, windows, climate, etc.)
- Location data (if enabled)
- Odometer readings
This data is collected via Rivian's API using credentials you provide. We store this data to provide historical tracking and analysis features.
Rivian Account Credentials
To connect to your Rivian account, we temporarily process your Rivian login credentials. Access tokens are encrypted at rest using AES-256 encryption. We never store your Rivian password.

We do not store your credit card number, CVV, or full card details. All payment information is processed and stored securely by Stripe. See Stripe's Privacy Policy for details on how they handle your payment data.
How We Use Your Information
We use your information solely to:
- Provide the RiviMate service and its features
- Display your vehicle data and analytics
- Send important account notifications (password resets, security alerts)
- Improve the service based on aggregate, anonymized usage patterns
We do not:
- Sell your personal information or vehicle data
- Share your data with third parties for marketing

Data Security
We take security seriously and implement multiple layers of protection:
- Encryption in transit: All data is transmitted over HTTPS/TLS
- Encryption at rest: Sensitive data (tokens, credentials) is encrypted using AES-256
- Secure password storage: Passwords are hashed using industry-standard algorithms
- Access controls: Database access is restricted and monitored
While we strive to protect your data, no system is 100% secure. You use the service with the understanding that data transmission over the internet carries inherent risks.
Data Retention
We retain your data as follows:
- Account data: Retained while your account is active
- Vehicle data: Retained for historical analysis; some data may be automatically pruned after extended periods
- Activity logs: Retained for 90 days
You can request deletion of your account and all associated data at any time through the Settings page.

- Delete your data: Request complete deletion of your account and data
- Disconnect: Unlink your Rivian account at any time
Third-Party Services
RiviMate interacts with:
- Rivian's API: To retrieve your vehicle data. Your use of RiviMate is also subject to Rivian's terms and privacy policy.
- Email service providers: To send transactional emails (password resets, notifications)
- Stripe: To process subscription payments. Stripe receives your payment card details directly. See Stripe's Privacy Policy.
We do not use third-party analytics or advertising services that track your behavior.
Children's Privacy
RiviMate is not intended for users under 18 years of age. We do not knowingly collect information from children.
