If you are in immediate danger, call 911, or the local emergency number outside the United States. push! alerts the people you chose. It does not contact police or emergency services.
Between alerts, no location, audio or video is sent.
Ten seconds. Your PIN cancels it.
Location, audio and video, live to your listed contacts.
Your PIN ends it. Your contacts are told.
Nothing more is sent.
An alert nobody ends stops after an hour (unless extended) or after 10 minutes without a signal from your phone. Your contacts are told either way.
Always-on apps send your location all day. push! sends it during an alert, to the people on your list, then stops.

| What | When | Shown to | Details |
|---|---|---|---|
| Your account | When you sign up | You. Contacts: your name and photo. | |
Name, email and password, or Apple or Google sign-in. Phone, home address and university only if you add them under Personal Information. The device tokens that deliver notifications. | |||
| Your PIN | When you set it | Nobody. It stays on your phone. | |
Four digits. It cancels a countdown and ends an alert. Changing it asks for the current PIN. Reinstalling push! lets you set a new one. | |||
| Your contacts | When you invite them and they accept | You. Each contact sees they are linked to you. | |
Name, relationship, the email from their account, and the link between the two accounts. The code lasts 48 hours and travels through your own messaging app; push! does not store their phone numbers. | |||
| Your location | From the end of the countdown until the alert ends | Your contacts, live. The route goes to your Incident History. | |
Position with accuracy, altitude, heading and speed, plus your name and photo on the map. Before an alert, push! reads the position your phone already has. The last position stays in the live-location record after you end the alert, unless push! ended it for you. | |||
| Audio and video | While an alert is running | Your contacts, live. The recording goes to your Incident History. | |
Audio always; video while push! is open, unless off in Recording Settings. The camera preview warms up during the countdown, on your screen only. No audio or video is sent before the alert starts. | |||
| Alert history | During each alert | You, in Settings, Incident History. | |
Start, end, duration, distance, route, contacts notified, and the recording if one was saved. Older alerts are removed automatically after a limited period. Your contacts' app does not list your past alerts. | |||
| Usage data | While you use the app, including a press | Google, for us. | |
Firebase Analytics reports usage events to Google so we can improve push!, including that a countdown started. No advertising software. | |||
| Subscription status | When you start a trial or subscribe | Apple handles payment. | |
push! learns whether a trial or subscription is active, never card details. | |||
