This capability is critical for providing real-time safety monitoring and emergency response services throughout the event.
- Device and Usage Data: We collect information about your device, app usage, and network connectivity. This data helps us diagnose technical issues, optimize app performance, and ensure you have a seamless experience while using RaceSafe.
