4. Data Storage
All user-generated data is stored locally on your device.

If you uninstall the App or clear its data, this locally stored information may be permanently deleted.

5. Data Sharing
We do not sell, trade, rent, or share your personal data with third parties. Because user data is stored locally on your device, the app developers generally do not have access to your logged data. However, some third-party services may be used for app functionality (for example mapping or advertising services). These providers may collect limited technical information as governed by their own privacy policies.

6. Third-Party Services
The App may use third-party services to support certain features. Examples may include: Mapping or location services, Analytics tools, Advertising networks. The App uses MapTiler API for location-based features. You can opt out of location data collection by disabling location features in the App settings. As of the writing of this policy, MapTiler does not use your data for profiling or marketing purposes. However, we accept no liability if MapTiler's terms of service or privacy practices change in the future. Please review the privacy policies of the third party services for more information about how they handle data.

7. Data Security
We take reasonable measures to protect the integrity of the App and its functionality. Because user data is stored locally on your device, the security of that data also depends on your device's own security protections. We recommend keeping your device updated and secured with appropriate protections such as passcodes or biometric locks.

8. Children's Privacy
The App is not intended for use by individuals under the legal drinking age in their country or region. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
