TeleTraffic Privacy Policy
Effective Date: August 23, 2026
TeleTraffic respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how TeleTraffic handles information when you use the TeleTraffic mobile application, the TeleTraffic website at tele-traffic.com, and related TeleTraffic services.
Who We Are
TeleTraffic provides traffic information, audio traffic reports, and traffic-related tools, including the Ask TeleTraffic feature.
Our website is:
Questions about this Privacy Policy or TeleTraffic’s privacy practices may be submitted through our Contact TeleTraffic page:
TeleTraffic Mobile Application
The TeleTraffic mobile application provides live and recently generated traffic reports for supported markets and allows users to ask traffic-related questions through text or voice.
The app does not require users to create a TeleTraffic account to listen to traffic reports or use Ask TeleTraffic.
Microphone and Speech Recognition
TeleTraffic includes an optional voice feature called Tap to Speak.
When you choose to use this feature, TeleTraffic requests permission to access your device’s microphone and speech-recognition capabilities.
Microphone access is used only when necessary to recognize a traffic question spoken by the user.
TeleTraffic itself does not intentionally create or retain recordings of your voice through this feature.
Speech recognition is performed using speech-recognition capabilities provided by your device, operating system, or associated speech-recognition provider. Depending on your device and configuration, audio may be processed by the device manufacturer, operating-system provider, or speech-recognition service according to that provider’s own privacy practices.
After speech is recognized, TeleTraffic receives the resulting text transcript.
You may choose not to grant microphone or speech-recognition permission and may instead type a question or select an available roadway.
Ask TeleTraffic Questions
When you use Ask TeleTraffic, the question you type or the text produced from speech recognition is sent securely over the internet to TeleTraffic’s servers.
The request may include:
- the traffic market you selected; and
- the text of your traffic question.
This information is used to determine the appropriate traffic response and return it to the application.
TeleTraffic does not require your name, email address, phone number, or user account in order to use Ask TeleTraffic.
Traffic Reports
The TeleTraffic application retrieves traffic-report information and audio from TeleTraffic servers.
Traffic information may originate from TeleTraffic systems and third-party traffic-information sources.
TeleTraffic may update, organize, interpret, or present this information for use in its traffic-reporting services.
Advertising and Sponsor Content
The TeleTraffic application may display sponsor or advertising content.
Sponsor banners may contain links that open a sponsor’s website or another external website. Once you leave TeleTraffic and visit an external site, that site’s own privacy policy and terms apply.
TeleTraffic is not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party websites.
Device Permissions
Depending on your device and the features you choose to use, TeleTraffic may request permissions including:
- Microphone access
- Speech-recognition access
These permissions are used to provide the features described in this Privacy Policy.
You may manage application permissions through your device settings.
Information Automatically Processed
When you communicate with TeleTraffic’s servers, standard technical information may be processed by servers and hosting infrastructure, such as:
- IP address
- date and time of a request
- request type
- basic device or browser information
- server and diagnostic information
This information may be used for security, troubleshooting, service reliability, abuse prevention, and operation of TeleTraffic services.
Information We Do Not Require
The core TeleTraffic mobile application does not require users to provide:
- a personal profile
- a TeleTraffic username or password
- a home address
- payment information

This information is used to respond to your inquiry, including advertising, business, support, or general questions.
Website Comments
If comments are enabled and visitors leave comments on the TeleTraffic website, we may collect the information shown in the comment form along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user-agent information for spam detection and website security.
An anonymized value derived from an email address may be provided to the Gravatar service when that service is used. Gravatar is operated according to its provider’s privacy practices.
Cookies
The TeleTraffic website may use cookies for normal WordPress website functionality, administration, security, user preferences, and other website features.
For example, WordPress may use cookies when a visitor logs in, leaves a comment, or selects certain website preferences.
The mobile application’s core traffic-report and Ask TeleTraffic functionality does not require browser cookies from users.
Embedded and External Content
Pages on tele-traffic.com may contain or link to content from third-party websites.
Third-party websites may collect information, use cookies, or employ their own tracking technologies according to their individual privacy policies.
TeleTraffic does not control the privacy practices of independent third parties.
