Geo Camera

01 · Introduction

This Privacy Policy explains how Geo Camera (“we”, “us”, or “our”) handles information when you use our Android app. By using the app, you agree to the practices described here.

02 · Information we collect

We do not require you to create an account. Depending on how you use the app, the following information may be processed on your device:

• Photos and videos you capture in the app, stored locally (and optionally in your gallery album Geo Camera).
• Location data (coordinates, altitude, accuracy, heading) used to stamp captures.
• Address, Plus Code, and map thumbnails derived from location.
• Date and time, and optional sensor readings (compass, level, pressure) for the stamp overlay.
• App settings (template, camera grid/level, Pro unlock flag) stored on the device.
• Optional Google account access if you turn on Google Drive backup.

03 · How we use information

We use information only to provide Geo Camera:

• Stamp photos and videos with location, address, map, and time.
• Save captures on your device and in the Geo Camera gallery album.
• Show captures on the in-app map and in Preview / My Files.
• Upload new captures to a Geo Camera folder in your Google Drive if you enable that option.
• Process a one-time Pro purchase through Google Play Billing.
• Show ads to free users through Google AdMob (Pro removes ads).
• Send feedback email you compose, including any screenshot you attach.

04 · Camera and microphone

The camera is used only to capture photos and videos you take in the app. The microphone is used only when you record video. We do not access the camera or microphone in the background.

05 · Location

Location is used to stamp coordinates, address, Plus Code, and map thumbnails onto your captures, and to place them on the in-app map. Location is not sold and is not used for advertising.

06 · Maps and address lookup

Map thumbnails and the in-app map load publicly available map tiles (for example OpenStreetMap and Esri imagery). Reverse-geocoding turns coordinates into an address. Those third-party services may receive coordinates needed to return tiles or an address, under their own policies.

07 · Google Drive (optional)

Drive access is optional. If you enable it, the app uses the drive.file scope to create a Geo Camera folder and upload or delete files this app created. We do not read your other Drive files. Only new captures after you enable Drive are uploaded. Deleting a local capture also deletes the Drive copy when Drive is connected.

08 · Purchases

Geo Camera Pro is a one-time Google Play purchase. Google Play processes payment. The app only stores whether Pro is unlocked on this device. We do not receive your full payment card details.

09 · Advertising

The free version of Geo Camera shows ads using Google AdMob (and may use mediation partners). Ads may use advertising identifiers and device/app information provided by the Google Mobile Ads SDK to deliver and measure ads. Pro users do not see ads.

• Ad formats may include banner, interstitial, and rewarded video.
• Location used for photo stamps is not sold for advertising.
• You can remove ads by purchasing Geo Camera Pro.
• Google’s privacy policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy

10 · Local storage

Captures, stamp data, and settings are stored on your device. Clearing app data or uninstalling the app removes local app files. Photos you saved to the device gallery remain in the gallery until you delete them there. Drive copies remain in your Drive until deleted (by the app when you delete a local file while connected, or by you in Drive).

11 · Permissions

• Camera — capture photos and videos.
• Microphone — record audio with video.
• Location — stamp GPS, address, and map.
• Photos / media / storage — save captures and pick a screenshot for feedback.
• Internet — map tiles, address lookup, optional Drive, Play purchases, ads, and opening links.
• Notifications — video stamp progress.

12 · Data sharing

We do not sell your personal information. Data may be shared only as needed to run the app:

• Map and geocoding providers — coordinates needed for tiles and addresses.
• Google Drive — if you enable backup, files this app uploads to your account.
• Google Play Billing — purchase records for Pro.
• Google AdMob (and mediation partners) — advertising identifiers and related device/app data needed to show ads to free users.
• Email app — if you send feedback.
• Other apps you choose — when you share a capture.
• Legal requirements — if required by law or to protect rights and safety.

13 · Children’s privacy

Geo Camera is not directed to children under 13 (or the minimum age required in your country). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information through the app, contact us and we will take reasonable steps to delete it where applicable.

14 · Your choices

• Deny camera, microphone, or location permissions (some features will not work).
• Leave Google Drive turned off so captures stay only on the device.
• Delete captures in the app (and the Drive copy when connected).
• Clear app data or uninstall the app.
• Contact us with privacy questions.
• Upgrade to Pro to remove ads.

15 · How to delete your data

• On-device captures and settings — delete items in the app, or Android Settings → Apps → Geo Camera → Storage → Clear data. Uninstalling also removes local app data.
• Gallery copies — delete them from the Geo Camera album in your device gallery.
• Google Drive copies — delete them in the Geo Camera Drive folder, or delete the local file in the app while Drive is connected.
• Additional requests — email kamrantariq699@gmail.com with the subject “Delete my data — Geo Camera”.

16 · Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top will change when we do. Continued use of the app after changes means you accept the updated policy.
