MilesForTax™

MilesForTax (Also known as Miles4Tax) is an install and forget mileage accumulator application for Android smart phones. This section is about what information is collected and how it is used

The Application does collect information about your location from the Gps. It does not reveal your current location to others however the location is stored in a database that can be retrieved even when the application is no longer on the platform.

The application doesn't rely on cellular networks and doesn't require your phone to be on a network to collect calculate or record the mileage. However using certain features of the application such as mapping provided by Google, or reverse geocoding will cause traffic on the network that may identify your location.

For automatic mileage recording it requires that your smart phone has a working Gps, or is connected to the vehicle using a compatible working Bluetooth OBD scanner in the vehicle. If you do not install an OBDII the OBD feature for collecting mileage will not work
