privacy notice

Last updated July 2026, written to align with the Philippine Data Privacy Act.

• Your email address, from Google or Apple sign-in, if you create an account to submit reports. Looking up or browsing plates never requires an account.
• The reports you submit: a plate string, a thumbs up or down, and one to three tags from our fixed vocabulary.
• A coarse city, if you choose to add one to a report. We only ever ask for a city; we do not collect or store GPS coordinates.
• Basic technical logs (timestamps, rate-limit counters) needed to keep the service from being abused.

We treat a plate number the way the National Privacy Commission's own guidance treats it: as a publicly observable vehicle identifier, not personal information, as long as it stays unlinked to a named individual. That is exactly the line we commit to holding. We do not run plate-to-owner lookups, we do not accept or display owner names, addresses, or photos of drivers, and we do not connect a plate's record to any government ID or registry. If you are looking for who owns a plate, this is not that site, and it never will be.

Plate records, tag tallies, and the Board rankings are public: that is the point of the site. Your email address is never public. We do not show who filed a given report; reporters stay anonymous to everyone except our own abuse-prevention systems.

Reports are kept as a permanent public ledger, the same way a classroom tally stays on the board until it is erased. If a report is removed following a dispute, we mark it removed rather than deleting it outright, so the record stays honest about what happened and when it was corrected.

You can ask us to retract your own report; contact us and we will remove it from the board. You can dispute any plate's record without an account, from the plate page, if you think it involves your vehicle. To ask about, correct, or delete your account data, or to raise any other privacy question, email us.
