PRIVACY POLICY FOR MOBILE APPLICATION "Chronicle Walking Trails"
Last updated: September 29, 2022
This privacy policy governs your use of the software application “Chronicle Walking Trails” (later referred as the/this “Application”) for Android™ mobile devices that was created by Nerostorm Ltd.
The Application is a mobile Android application that has numerous walking trails for local places that allow users to explore their local area through a sequence of geographical points of interest and learn about the local area.
What information does the Application obtain and how is it used?
User Provided Information
The Application does not require any user registration. Some walking trails contain a quiz and users can optionally add their name and email address when submitting their answers. This information is used solely to allow Chronicle to provide feedback on the quiz response. The information is not shared with any other third parties.
Automatically Collected Information
The Application does not collect any information automatically, other than the location information described below.
Does the Application collect precise real time location information of the device?
When you visit the mobile application, we use GPS technology (or other similar technology) to determine your current location in order to determine your position on a walking trail and to direct you to the next point of interest. We may also use the location to show you relevant advertisements and information. We do not store your location and will not share your current location with other users or partners.
If you do not want us to use your location for the purposes set forth above, you should turn off the location services for the mobile application located in your account settings or in your mobile phone settings and/or within the mobile application, however you cannot use the app without location services enabled.
Do third parties see and/or have access to information obtained by the Application?
We do not share your information (personal details and locations) with any third parties. We may disclose User Provided and Automatically Collected Information:
-
as required by law, such as to comply with a subpoena, or similar legal process;
-
when we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, protect your safety or the safety of others, investigate fraud, or respond to a government request;
What are my opt-out rights?
You can stop all collection of information by the Application easily by uninstalling the Application. You may use the standard uninstall processes as may be available as part of your mobile device or via the mobile application marketplace or network.
