Location data.
The App requires the following device permissions: • Location Services: Required to determine your current position for distance calculations and directional guidance. • Motion Sensors: Required to access the magnetometer (compass) and accelerometer for directional readings. You may revoke these permissions at any time through your device settings, though this will limit the App's functionality.
Your location data stays on your device.

The app does not connect to the internet for data collection purposes.
API calls
OpenStreetMap (Nominatim) is used for geolocation on the map.
Third-party services — OpenStreetMap and OpenDataSoft DO receive network requests that include the user's IP address.
None of these web calls actively "track" the user, but the third-party servers (OpenStreetMap, OpenDataSoft) will see the user's IP address as part of normal HTTP requests.

No data sharing/selling — We don't sell or share user data with third parties for advertising or marketing.
