Last Updated: April 8, 2026

1. Introduction

GPS Recorder ("we", "our", or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your information when you use our GPS tracking application.

2. Information We Collect

Location Data

GPS Recorder collects precise location data to provide core functionality including:

  • Real-time GPS coordinates (latitude, longitude)
  • Altitude measurements
  • Speed and heading information
  • GPS accuracy data
  • Flight path recordings

Important: All location data is stored locally on your device. We do not transmit, upload, or share your location data with any third parties or remote servers.

Device Information

We may collect basic device information including:

  • Device model and operating system version
  • App version information
  • Crash logs and error reports (to improve app stability)

3. How We Use Your Information

We use the collected information to:

  • Display real-time GPS data (speed, altitude, heading, coordinates)
  • Record and store flight paths on your device
  • Calculate flight statistics and analytics
  • Provide map visualization of your location and recorded paths
  • Improve app performance and fix bugs

4. Data Storage and Security

Local Storage: All your GPS recordings and location data are stored exclusively on your device. We do not maintain any servers or databases that store your personal location information.

Data Security: Your data is protected by your device's built-in security features. We recommend keeping your device secure with a passcode or biometric authentication.

5. Data Sharing and Third Parties

We do not sell, trade, or share your location data with third parties.

The app uses the following third-party services:

  • Apple Maps / Google Maps: For displaying map data. These services may collect limited data according to their own privacy policies.
  • Analytics: We may use privacy-focused analytics to understand app usage patterns (crash reports, feature usage) without collecting personally identifiable information.

6. Location Permission

GPS Recorder requires location permission to function. You can control location access through your device settings:

  • When In Use: App can access location only when open
  • Always: Required for background recording during flights
  • Never: App cannot function without location access

You can revoke location permission at any time, but this will prevent the app from tracking GPS data.

7. Your Data Rights

You have the following rights regarding your data:

  • Access: All your data is accessible within the app
  • Delete: You can delete individual recordings or all data from within the app
  • Export: You can share your recordings from the app
  • Control: You maintain full control over what data is recorded

8. Children's Privacy

GPS Recorder is not directed to children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us.

9. Changes to This Privacy Policy
