Terms of Service

Last updated: April 2026

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of CarBack ("the App"), developed by Digital Gemba, LLC ("we," "us," or "our"). By downloading or using the App, you agree to these Terms.

Use of the App

CarBack pairs with a Garmin Varia rear-view radar to provide voice alerts when vehicles approach from behind. It is designed as a supplementary awareness tool for cyclists. You may use the App for personal, non-commercial purposes in accordance with these Terms and applicable laws.

No Account Required

The App does not require any account creation or login. All data is stored locally on your device.

Your Data

All data you enter into the App (preferences, paired device information) is stored locally on your device. We do not have access to your data. Deleting the app permanently removes all stored data.

Disclaimer — Not Safety Equipment

CarBack is a supplementary awareness tool. It is not a substitute for your mirror, head-checks, Garmin head unit display, or safe riding practices. Do not rely on CarBack as your primary source of traffic awareness.

Radar alerts depend on Bluetooth connectivity, radar detection accuracy, and environmental factors. Alerts may be missed, delayed, or fail silently. Distance announcements reflect data from the Varia radar and may not be perfectly accurate. The alert feature is in a test phase and may change or be removed in future updates.

You are solely responsible for your safety and the safety of others while riding. Always ride as if CarBack is not running.
