Privacy Policy
Last updated: December 2025
1. Introduction
Welcome to GeoShareX. We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal data. This privacy policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your information when you use our location-sharing application.
2. Information We Collect
We collect the following types of information:
- Account Information: Username, email address (optional), and authentication credentials
- Location Data: Real-time location coordinates when you choose to share your location with group members
- Group Data: Information about groups you create or join, including group names and shared pins
- Device Information: Device type, operating system, and app version for troubleshooting purposes
3. How We Use Your Information
Your information is used to:
- Provide and maintain our location-sharing services
- Enable real-time location sharing within your groups
- Display shared pins and routes on maps
- Authenticate your account and ensure security
- Improve and optimize our application
4. Location Data
Location sharing is entirely opt-in. Your location is only shared with members of groups you explicitly join. You can stop sharing your location at any time by leaving a group or disabling location permissions on your device. We retain location data only while you are actively sharing and for a limited time afterward for service functionality.
5. Data Sharing
We do not sell your personal data. Your location information is only shared with other members of groups you have joined. We may share anonymized, aggregated data for analytics purposes. We use third-party services (such as map tile providers) that may have their own privacy policies.
6. Data Security
We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your data, including encrypted connections (TLS), secure token-based authentication, and regular security audits. However, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure.
7. Your Rights
You have the right to:
- Access your personal data
- Request deletion of your account and associated data
- Opt out of location sharing at any time
- Export your data upon request
