Welcome to Family Tracker: Location Map (referred to as "the App," "we," "us," or "our"). We are profoundly committed to safeguarding the privacy and data security of our users. This Privacy Policy details our protocols regarding the collection, utilization, and protection of your personal details when you interact with our mobile application.
By installing and using Family Tracker: Location Map, you acknowledge and agree to the data practices described below. If you object to any part of this policy, please discontinue use of the App immediately.
To deliver a dependable and secure family safety experience, we gather specific data points essential for the App’s performance.
The foundational value of our service depends entirely on high-accuracy geographical coordinates.
PROMINENT DISCLOSURE ON BACKGROUND LOCATION USAGE: Family Tracker: Location Map collects precise, real-time location data to enable core safety features. This data is collected actively in the background and even when the App is closed or not in use. We use this continuous data strictly for the features listed below and do not use it for unauthorized tracking, nor do we sell it to third parties.
Operational Functions Powered by Location Data:
Real-Time Circle Mapping: Allowing designated members of your private, invite-only group to view your current coordinates.
Geofence Alerts (Safe Zones): Sending automated, instantaneous notifications when a circle member enters or exits a predefined geographic boundary (e.g., home, workplace, school).
Lost Device Retrieval: Assisting you in tracking down your mobile device if it is misplaced or stolen.
User Control: You retain total sovereignty over your data and can revoke location permissions at any moment via your device's operating system settings, though doing so will immediately suspend all tracking capabilities.
Display Name: A customizable moniker used to identify you within your private circles and personalize your user interface.
Mobile Phone Number: Collected during registration to securely establish your user profile, verify identity during authentication, and synchronize your data seamlessly across multiple devices. Your number is never shared with external agencies for promotional marketing.
We cooperate with trusted technical and advertising platforms to maintain app stability, monitor performance, and monetize our free services. These third parties may automatically access device-specific identifiers (such as Android Advertising IDs) and technical usage statistics.
Our partner infrastructure includes:
Core Systems & Analytics: Google Play Services, Firebase Analytics, and Firebase Crashlytics.
Advertising Networks: AdMob, Meta Audience Network, Unity Ads, AppLovin, Mintegral, and Pangle.
Please Note: These external service providers manage your information under their own independent privacy frameworks. We highly encourage you to review their respective policies to better understand their data handling workflows.
In the event of a software malfunction or unexpected crash within the App, our system automatically generates an anonymous diagnostic report. This information is deployed strictly for debugging and product optimization, including:
Your device's Internet Protocol (IP) address and operating system (OS) version.
The internal configuration state of the App at the exact moment of the error.
Time-stamps and dates detailing your activity surrounding the error.
While Family Tracker: Location Map does not employ standard browser cookies, our advertising partners utilize mobile ad identifiers to deliver tailored ad campaigns and measure ad effectiveness. You can reset these identifiers or limit personalized tracking at any time through your smartphone’s native "Privacy" or "Ads" configuration menus.
We implement robust, industry-standard cryptographic techniques and administrative safeguards to defend your personal information against unauthorized disclosure, alteration, or loss. However, please be aware that no method of electronic transmission or cloud storage is completely infallible. While we strive to maximize protection, we cannot guarantee absolute data security.
We retain your personal data and location history only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this policy. Real-time location logs are periodically overwritten or anonymized after a short buffering period (typically no longer than 30 days) unless required for continuous core functionalities. Account profile details remain secure as long as your account is active.
Our services are directed to and designed for use by individuals who meet the minimum legal age requirements in their respective jurisdictions. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 (or 16 in certain regions) without verifiable parental consent. If we discover that a minor has provided us with personal data unauthorized, we will erase it from our servers immediately.
We reserve the right to revise this Privacy Policy periodically to match service modifications or evolving international data protection standards. Any updates will be published directly within this section with an updated revision date. Your continued utilization of Family Tracker: Location Map after amendments are posted implies your formal acknowledgment of the revised terms.
If you have any inquiries regarding these privacy practices, or if you wish to formally request the complete erasure of your personal data and account from our servers, please submit a request to our support team via the built-in help center in the App.
