Seeing as how parents can't even legally see your college grades unless you show them yourself after you turn 18 - even if they are footing the billI - I'm guessing it's not legal without your consent.
Under 18 though, I'd say it's probably legal.
EDIT: Looks like it's a little bit murky - especially since these app developers usually say "Don't use this app to track or spy on anyone but your minor children or employees" or some such - but it seems to be the consensus that using such an app to track your child once they turn 18 is illegal.
This isn't something that's acceptable just because your parents pay the bills, Coffee. This is a gross and illegal invasion of privacy and a massive red flag, and the fact that you seem to think they're within their rights to do this makes me feel like I have to finally stop dancing around it:
Your parents are psychologically and emotionally abusive and have brainwashed you into obedience over the years. You're an adult now and need to get away while you can. They're getting worse because they know this and want to make sure you're completely dependent on them before you wake up and GTFO.
I'm willing to bet that before too long they'll stop paying for your college with some excuse that makes it seem like you did something wrong and they're punishing you, making you feel like you owe it to them to come back home. But the real reason will be that they know the longer you stay out from under their thumb (especially while in school, being educated and exposed to many diverse people and points of view), the more likely you are to see their behavior for what it is and escape from it.
