Local Explorer 3D (the “App”) helps users explore places, view maps, and navigate. This Privacy Policy explains what information is handled by the App, how it is used, and the choices you have.
The App does not require creating an account.
If you email support, we will receive your email address and the contents of your message.
If you allow location permission, the App may access precise or approximate location to:
show your current position on the map,
find nearby places,
provide navigation/routing features.
You can use the App with limited functionality by denying location permission, and you can change location permissions anytime in your device settings.
The App may use third-party services (such as Google) to provide maps/places and to show ads. These services may automatically collect certain information such as:
device identifiers (e.g., Advertising ID),
IP address,
approximate location inferred from IP,
app interaction/diagnostics (crash logs, performance data),
ad interactions (impressions, clicks, frequency capping).
We do not personally need or use this information to identify you, but these third parties may process it to provide their services.
We use information to:
provide core features (maps, nearby search, routing/navigation),
improve app stability and performance (diagnostics/crash fixes),
show ads in the free version and measure ad performance,
respond to support emails.
The App may display ads using Google AdMob in the free version. Ad providers may use device identifiers and other data to deliver and measure ads.
If the App offers a “Premium” purchase/subscription, Premium may remove ads (depending on your in-app settings and purchase status).
We do not sell your personal information.
We may share limited information in these cases:
Service providers/SDKs used to operate the App (e.g., Google Maps/Places/Directions, Google AdMob). These providers process data under their own privacy policies.
Legal reasons if required by law or valid legal process.
Business protection to prevent fraud, abuse, or security issues.
Support emails: retained as long as needed to respond and maintain support history.
Data processed by third-party SDKs: retained according to those providers’ policies.
We take reasonable steps to protect information. However, no method of transmission or storage is 100% secure.
The App is not intended for children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information, contact us and we will take reasonable steps to delete it.
You can:
disable location access in your device settings,
reset or limit ad personalization via your device privacy/ad settings (Android “Ads” settings),
contact us to request help with questions about this Privacy Policy.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will update the “Effective date” above when changes are posted.
