Data Security & Location Privacy
While our platform is designed for campus convenience, we recognize that handling location data is a significant responsibility. We prioritize robust security measures to ensure that student movements are protected from unauthorized tracking. By using local storage and secure API integrations, we minimize the risk of data exposure.
Informed Consent & Data Minimization
We only access the information strictly necessary for the app to function, such as your next class location via Google Calendar. We do not collect or sell personal data, and we ensure that users are fully aware of what information is being used to power their navigation.
Accessibility & Equity
Navigation is a matter of equity. Our team focuses on making campus life more accessible by providing clear information on shuttle services and building layouts, ensuring all students, regardless of their familiarity with the campus or physical mobility can navigate Concordia with confidence.
Accuracy & Accountability
We have an ethical duty to provide reliable information. Whether it is shuttle timings or classroom directions, we strive for high data accuracy to ensure students can manage their time effectively and safely move between campuses.
