Refuelia is an independently operated website. You can reach us at inforefuelia@gmail.com for general questions or inforefuelia@gmail.com for anything related to this policy.
Contact form. If you use the contact form, we store the name, email address and message you provide, so we can reply.
Driver reports, reviews and comments. Contributions such as fuel/queue reports, prices, text reviews and comments require a free account and are stored and shown publicly against the relevant station. They may be displayed together with your chosen public profile name and avatar; your email address is never shown publicly. We also store a hashed technical value (derived from your IP address and the date) to limit spam — we never store your raw IP address.
Saved stations. Stations you save as favorites are stored only in your browser's local storage. This never leaves your device or reaches our servers.
Location. If your browser prompts you and you allow it, your location is used only to center the map on you. We don't store it on our servers.
Cookies, analytics and advertising. See our Cookie Policy for the full breakdown, including Google AdSense and analytics cookies where enabled.
Browsing the map, searching, using your location, filtering and planning routes never require an account. A free account is only needed to contribute — to publish comments, submit reviews, confirm station information, report prices and build a contributor reputation.
How sign-in works. We offer sign-in through Google; the authentication provider is Google LLC. When you choose to sign in, Google asks for your permission and then shares basic account information with us: your Google account identifier, display name, email address and profile image. We never receive or store your Google password.
What we store and why. We store that Google account identifier, display name, email address and profile image to create and manage your Refuelia account, attribute and secure your contributions, prevent abuse, and show your public contributor profile. Your display name and avatar may be visible to other users next to your contributions; your email address is never shown publicly.
How long we keep it. We keep your account information for as long as your account exists. If you delete your account, your stored Google profile data is deleted.
Deleting your account and unlinking Google. When signed in, you can delete your account and its personal data from your profile menu, which also removes the Google link. You can also email inforefuelia@gmail.com to request deletion, and you can revoke Refuelia's access at any time from your Google Account security settings.
What remains after deletion. Public contributions that others rely on for accuracy (for example a confirmed fuel status) may be anonymised and detached from your account rather than fully removed, so the map stays consistent. Anything that identifies you is deleted.
Reports, reviews and comments you submit are publicly visible on the map. They may be moderated or removed if they violate our Community Guidelines.
We don't sell personal data. We may share data with service providers who help operate the site (hosting, analytics, advertising) under their own privacy terms, or where required by law.
Contact messages are kept as long as reasonably needed to respond and keep basic records. Reports and reviews are kept to keep the map useful; older, unconfirmed reports naturally become less visible over time (see our Data Accuracy Policy) but aren't automatically deleted.
You can ask us to provide or delete data associated with something you submitted (for example, a contact message or a review) by emailing inforefuelia@gmail.com with enough detail for us to find it — such as the email address you used, or the approximate date and station. We'll respond as soon as we reasonably can. Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights under laws like the GDPR or CCPA.
Refuelia isn't directed at children, and we don't knowingly collect personal data from children.
We may update this page as the service changes. Check back periodically for the latest version.
