## What is BRASS?

BRASS is an independent, community-run platform that connects people who
need urgent help with nearby, verified community volunteers ("Sevaks")
who can respond in minutes.

IF YOU NEED HELP
• Raise an SOS in one tap - no account needed.
• Nearby Sevaks are alerted and routed to you.
• Watch help converge in a live view - who's responding, how far away
  they are, and when they arrive.

IF YOU WANT TO HELP - BECOME A SEVAK
• Sign in with your phone number and apply to be a Sevak.
• Get verified by the BRASS team (identity + trusted contact).
• Go "On duty" when you're free to respond; you'll be alerted when
  someone nearby needs help and shown the way.

PRIVACY & LOCATION
• Your location is shared only while you are "On duty," so dispatch can
  route you to people nearby who need help - including in the background.
  Going "Off duty" stops it.
• We store your most recent position, not a location history.
• You can delete your account and data anytime in Settings, or at
  https://brass.help/delete-account.

DISCLAIMER
BRASS is an independent, community-run platform. It does not represent
any government entity and does not provide or facilitate any government
service. All responses come from community volunteers who choose to
help; availability and response are not guaranteed.
