Your privacy is of the utmost importance to us.
This Privacy Policy describes how Kshmlg Technologies ("VConnect", "the Application", "we", "us", or "our") handles your information. Our philosophy is one of minimal data collection. The Application is designed to act as a secure client between your device and your vehicle manufacturer\'s official servers, without storing or transmitting your personal data to our own servers.

- Secure TransmissionAll data transmitted to vehicle manufacturer servers and our license verification server is sent using modern cryptography (HTTPS).
