Location Permissions
GPS requires access to your device's location to provide its core functionality.

Location Data Storage
We do not permanently store your GPS location history on our servers.
Your location information is processed only as necessary to provide the requested services. Where possible, location processing occurs locally on your device.

If you choose to enable background location, the app may access your location while running in the background to support continuous navigation or location-based features.
Background location is only used after your explicit consent and can be disabled at any time through your device settings.
