Privacy PolicyEffective date: July 23, 2026HVLO (“HVLO,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) is a mobile application operated by Gray Matr, LLC. It is designed to help users stay connected with trusted groups through SOS alerts, temporary LINK location sharing, Rally Points, group messaging, maps, and related safety coordination features.HVLO is built with privacy in mind. We do not sell personal information. We do not sell, rent, or share mobile phone numbers or SMS opt-in data with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. We do not display third-party ads and do not use third-party marketing or advertising tools.1. Summary• HVLO is a personal safety and group coordination app—not a social network and not a replacement for 911 or emergency services.
• We collect only what we need to operate accounts, groups, safety alerts, maps, messages, and notifications.
• Location is shared only when you use features that require it (for example SOS, LINK, Rally Point, or map display), and only with the groups or recipients those features involve.
• We prefer in-app alerts and Apple Push Notifications. SMS is used for verification, invites, emergency/safety fallbacks, and non-app contacts when appropriate and consented.
• We do not sell personal data. Mobile information is not shared with third parties or affiliates for their marketing or promotional purposes.
• Message and data rates may apply to SMS. Message frequency varies (see Section 6).2. Information We CollectAccount and identity:

• Rally Point shares a meetup pin you choose to send.
• Active sharing is indicated in-app. You can stop sharing. Ending SOS may require device authentication.5.

HVLO prefers APNs for app users. SMS is generally not used for app users with a valid push token unless SMS fallback is enabled or delivery conditions require it.6.

1. Account verification — one-time passcodes to verify your phone number.
2. Group invitations — invites that may include a download / App Store link and/or an invite code or secure invite link so recipients without the app can install HVLO and join.

4. Rally Point notices — meetup location details and map links for eligible recipients.
5. LINK-related install invites — for contact-only / non-app members, an optional SMS inviting them to download HVLO to participate.
6. SMS fallback — when push delivery is unavailable/stale and SMS fallback is enabled, or when a recipient is a phone contact without the app.Messages are sent from +1 (951) 702-1295.Message and data rates may apply. Carrier charges are your responsibility.Message frequency varies. You may receive messages when you verify your phone, when someone invites you, during SOS or Rally Point events, and when SMS fallback conditions apply. Frequency is event-driven and may be higher during emergencies or active safety sessions.Mobile information sharing statement:
