1. Introduction
Welcome to GPS Map Camera & Photo GeoTagging ("we", "our", or "us"). We are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your information when you use our mobile application and related services.
By downloading or using the app, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
2. Information Collection & Use
For a better experience while using our Service, we may require you to provide us with certain personally identifiable information. The information that we request will be retained by us and used as described in this privacy policy.
- Location Information: Precise geographical data from your device's GPS.
- Account Information: Google account details if you choose to sign in to backup your media.
- Device Details: Model, OS version, and basic diagnostics data for app optimization.
3. Location Services
Core Feature: GPS Map Camera relies heavily on precise location details to tag your photos.
Our app accesses your device's GPS location to write geotagging details (latitude, longitude, altitude, and address) directly onto the images you capture. This data is:
- Embedded into the image EXIF metadata.
- Printed directly as a visual watermark on the photo.
- Saved locally on your device unless you explicitly opt to sync with Firebase Cloud storage.
4. Camera & Storage Permissions
To enable the application features, we require access to the following permissions:
- Camera Permission: Used to take photos and render live viewfinder overlays.
- Storage/Gallery Permission: Used to save the captured, watermarked photos directly to your system gallery and load preview thumbnails.
5. Cloud Backup & Sync
If you choose to log in with your Google account, our app integrates with Firebase Authentication, Firestore Database, and Firebase Storage to sync your geotagged photos and projects to the cloud. This allows you to restore your images across different devices.
If you choose to remain logged out, all photos and database elements stay strictly offline, stored locally on your device.
6. Third-Party Services
The app does use third-party services that may collect information used to identify you. Link to the privacy policies of third-party service providers used by the app:
