AutoLog is a car service log with optional Google-powered cloud features. Core service-log data stays on your device. User/account identifiers, entitlement tier, shared AI quota, reservation, and abuse-prevention records are stored in Firebase.
Stored locally: vehicles, maintenance, insurance, fuel, expenses, reminders, part catalog (Pro), saved parking spots — GPS coordinates when you tap “Save location” (Pro), photos, and settings. We do not access this data.
.autolog files — you export yourself. Google Drive (optional, Pro) — backup in your Drive app folder after sign-in; with an active subscription, several devices on the same account merge changes through the sync file in Drive (record-level merge). A random deviceId in the file is used only for conflict resolution and is not sent to the developer. On devices without Google services, cloud backup is unavailable — use .autolog files.
For Google Drive backup you sign in with Google: the app receives your account email and Drive app-folder access. For AI features (AI Scan and AI Dictate), Firebase creates an anonymous account (no Google sign-in UI); Firebase stores a user identifier for shared quota and entitlement. Governed by the Google Privacy Policy.
For Robokassa subscriptions (RU) you may sign in with Yandex ID. Yandex may request access to login, name, and gender (narrowest API scope). We store only the Yandex account id to restore your subscription; we do not store name, gender, or email. Payment is via Robokassa (Russian bank card), not Yandex Pay. See the Yandex Privacy Policy.
AI Scan is an optional Pro/Business cloud feature. AutoLog provides a redaction tool. After versioned consent, the redacted/edited document image itself is sent to Google Firebase / Gemini for multimodal recognition. This is not an OCR-text-only or on-device AI process. The unedited source image is not intended to be sent to the AI recognition service.
AI Dictate is optional and available only when your device supports speech recognition. When you start AI Dictate, AutoLog requests microphone access. Speech is converted to text by the device’s speech recognition service (often Google). AutoLog does not send an audio file to Gemini. The transcript text is sent to Google Firebase / Gemini for structured field suggestions. Speak in the language of the app interface; each listening session lasts up to about one minute.
Photo AI Scan and AI Dictate share one monthly AI quota (Pro: 80 / Business: 600 requests per UTC calendar month). Each successful Gemini request counts; speech recognition alone does not consume quota if Gemini is not called.
Google returns suggested structured fields for your review. They are saved locally only if you save the record. AutoLog does not train its own model on submitted images or transcripts and does not intentionally persist them in its own database. Google's processing and any service-side retention are governed by the applicable Google, Firebase, and Gemini terms. Audio handled by the device's speech recognition service is governed by that service's terms (often Google).
Firebase stores the user/account identifier, Pro or Business tier, monthly shared quota usage, request reservations, and abuse-prevention records. You are responsible for personal data left visible or dictated and for having a lawful basis to submit another person's data. See the AI Data Notice.
The local ArticleScanner for selecting article numbers from labels is a separate, free on-device OCR tool; it does not use cloud AI features.
We do not track location in the background. GPS is used only when you save a parking spot (Pro). Coordinates stay on your device and may be included in .autolog or Google Drive backups. We do not send coordinates to our servers.
Delivered locally: service reminders (maintenance, insurance); an occasional update your mileage nudge (about every 7 days if mileage has not been updated recently); for Robokassa subscriptions — a notice when renewal payment fails (after the app syncs status from the server). Notification data is not sent to the developer’s servers.
There is no Lifetime tier. Most countries: recurring Pro/Business via Google Play (status, product/base plan, purchase token for verification; card details handled by Google). Russia (when offered in the app): recurring Pro/Business via Robokassa (Russian bank card), with optional Yandex ID for restore; we store subscription status, tier, expiry, Robokassa payment/subscription id, yandexUserId if linked, and history of consent to automatic charges (Yandex ID, plan, timestamp, terms version); card details are handled by Robokassa. Public offer (Russian): legal/oferta-ru.html. Personal data consent: legal/consent-pdn-en.html. See also the Terms of Use and Manage subscription.
AutoLog has no separate app account and no developer-hosted data-deletion web form.
.autolog files — delete them yourself wherever you saved them.Privacy questions: autolog1.support@gmail.com.
