Terms of use

The rules for using DrivePerf, in plain language. The most important one: never use the app while you're driving.

Version 0.9Draft · 7 Nov 2026
Draft for counsel review. Written from the DrivePerf product requirements and not yet in force. Items marked like this are still to be confirmed.
Never interact with DrivePerf while you're driving. Recording starts and stops on its own, and the app shows nothing to read or tap while a drive is in progress. Set up a manual drive before you pull away, and look at your Story once you're parked.

Agreement and age

These terms are an agreement between you and Keval Langalia, an individual based in Ontario, Canada, who makes DrivePerf (“DrivePerf”, “we”). By using the DrivePerf app (com.driveperf.app) or driveperf.com you agree to them and to our privacy policy.

You must be 18 or older and hold a valid licence for any vehicle you drive while recording. DrivePerf is not designed for teen drivers or for monitoring another person.

Safe use

  • Don’t interact with the app, its widgets, Live Activity, notifications or controls while driving. If you need to stop a drive or mark yourself as a passenger, do it when you’re safely stopped, or let a passenger do it.
  • Obey traffic laws and drive for the conditions at all times. DrivePerf never rewards speed, and its route records are about smoothness, never time. Never treat a score or a record as a reason to drive differently from what is safe and legal.
  • If you use a phone mount, place it where it doesn’t block your view or airbags, and follow local laws on phone use and mounting.
  • DrivePerf is not a safety system, a crash detector or an emergency service.

What DrivePerf is, and isn't

DrivePerf records drives using your phone’s sensors and gives you a Smoothness score, events, tips, replays and recaps for your own interest and improvement.

  • It is not insurance and is not connected to any insurer. We don’t provide data to insurers, and your scores aren’t a rating of risk.
  • Scores compare you with your own past drives. They are not a judgement of whether you drove legally, safely or well by any official standard.
  • Efficiency habits describe driving behaviour. DrivePerf does not measure fuel or energy use and makes no savings claims.

Your account and your data

You don’t need an account for Free features or the Pro Preview. If you create one, keep your sign-in secure. Your trip data belongs to you. You give us permission to store and process it only to provide the features you use, such as cloud backup. You can download or delete it at any time, as described in the privacy policy.

Pro, the Pro Preview and payments

  • Pro Preview: every new user gets 14 days of Pro, with no card and no charge. When it ends you continue on Free unless you choose to subscribe. You keep all your trips either way.
  • Plans: Pro is available monthly (US$6.99 or CA$8.99) or yearly (US$39.99 or CA$49.99). The store may show local prices and add taxes. There is no weekly or lifetime plan.
  • Founding Drivers offer: a first year of Pro at US$29.99 or CA$39.99 for waitlist members, beta testers and people who install in the first 30 days after launch, then the regular yearly price. One per person; store offer rules apply.
  • Billing and renewal: subscriptions are sold through the App Store or Google Play and renew automatically at the end of each period unless you cancel at least 24 hours before it ends.
  • Cancelling: manage or cancel in your App Store or Google Play account settings. Cancelling stops the next renewal; Pro stays on until the end of the period you paid for.
  • Refunds are handled by Apple or Google under their policies and any rights you have under local consumer law.
  • When Pro ends, Pro features lock but nothing is deleted from your phone: older Replay and Analysis are “locked, not lost”. Cloud backup stops, and the cloud copy is kept for 30 days, with reminders, then deleted; during those 30 days you can still restore or download it. See the privacy policy.

Ride-along passes

A Ride-along pass gives a new user 30 days of Pro instead of the 14-day Preview. When the friend is set up, the sender gets one month of Pro, up to six months a year. Rewards never depend on distance driven, number of drives, ratings or reviews. Passes have no cash value and may be withdrawn if abused.

Acceptable use

Don’t use DrivePerf to record someone else without their knowledge, to break the law, to interfere with the service or other users, or to reverse-engineer it beyond what the law allows. Don’t use it on closed courses or for racing: v1 has no track mode.

Our software and content

We give you a personal, non-transferable licence to use the app. DrivePerf, the Loop mark and the app’s design belong to us. Map data is © OpenStreetMap contributors and other providers as credited in the app. Open-source licences are listed in Settings.

Accuracy and disclaimers

Phone sensors and GPS have limits. DrivePerf auto-detects most drives, but some can be missed, the first few hundred metres of an automatic drive may be estimated, and force-quitting the app pauses auto-detect. Estimated values are labelled. The service is provided “as is” to the extent the law allows.

Limitation of liability

[Counsel to draft, including consumer-law carve-outs for Quebec and US states.] Nothing in these terms limits rights you have under consumer protection laws that can’t be waived.

Ending these terms

You can stop using DrivePerf at any time and delete your data. We may suspend access for serious breaches of these terms, and we’ll give notice where we reasonably can.

Changes and governing law

We’ll tell you in the app before material changes take effect, and each version has a number and date. These terms are governed by the laws of Ontario and Canada, without removing the protection of the consumer laws where you live. [Counsel to confirm forum and Quebec consumer-law language.]
