Thank you for choosing to use our Compass app. This privacy policy explains how we handle your information and protects your privacy. We are committed to protecting any personal information that you may provide while using our application.
GPS Location: The app requires access to your device's location to provide compass and positioning functionality. This includes latitude, longitude, and altitude data.
Location Usage: Location data is processed entirely on your device and is used only to:
Display your current coordinates
Calculate magnetic declination for true north
Show your current address (through reverse geocoding)
Enable sharing your location with others (only when you explicitly choose to share)
The app accesses your device's sensors (magnetometer, accelerometer) to provide compass functionality
Sensor data is processed in real-time and is not stored or transmitted
All data processing occurs locally on your device
No personal information or location data is collected, stored, or transmitted to external servers
Location sharing features only activate when you explicitly choose to share your location
Address lookup (reverse geocoding) uses Android's system services
The app stores only your preferences (such as display settings) locally on your device
No personal data is stored permanently
No data is transmitted to external servers
We use Android's built-in location and sensor services
Reverse geocoding is handled by Android's Geocoder service
These services are subject to Google's privacy policy and Android system settings
You can:
Enable/disable location services through your device settings
Control sensor access through your device settings
Choose whether to share your location through the share feature
Delete app data through your device's settings
