Safety that doesn't kill
the vibe.

PubRun is built with safety at its core. Not as an afterthought. Every feature is designed to help you look after your mates — without being annoying about it.

Opt-In Only

Every safety feature is off by default. You choose what to share, when to share it, and with whom.

Ephemeral by Design

Location data auto-deletes when the crawl ends. No storage, no history, no trace. Gone.

Group-First

Safety features work within your group. No public tracking, no strangers, no creeps.

Safety FAQ

Common questions about PubRun's safety features.

How does PubRun's live location sharing work?

PubRun shows all group members on a real-time map during an active pub crawl. You can see who is at which pub, who has fallen behind, and who has gone off route. Location sharing is opt-in, only visible to your group, and automatically stops when the crawl ends. No data is stored afterwards.

What is the emergency SOS button?

The PubRun emergency SOS button lets you share your live location with a pre-set emergency contact with a single tap. It sends continuous location updates until cancelled and works from any screen in the app. No need to fumble through menus.

Does PubRun store my location data after a crawl?

No. All location data is automatically deleted when your crawl ends. Nothing is stored on servers, nothing can be hacked or leaked. Location sharing is opt-in only and never runs in the background. Read our privacy policy →

What are drop-off alerts?

Drop-off alerts automatically notify your group if someone stops moving, leaves the route area, or their phone goes offline. This means no one gets left behind without someone knowing. Sensitivity settings are customisable.

Privacy. Built in.

Your data is yours. Full stop. Read our full privacy policy →

🗑️

Auto-Delete Data

All location data is automatically deleted when your crawl ends. Nothing stored, nothing to hack, nothing to leak.

🔐

Encrypted in Transit

Your location and group data is encrypted during transmission and protected with industry-standard security.

👁️

No Third-Party Access

We never sell, share, or allow third-party access to your data. Not now, not ever. No exceptions.

🎯

Minimal Permissions

We only ask for permissions we actually need. Location is only used during active crawls — not in the background.

Safety first.
Always.
