Privacy Policy
About this pilot
This notice describes the current frontend pilot. Operator identity and privacy contact have not been supplied; public launch requires those fields to be configured on the Contact page.
Walking preferences and saved places
Pace, pinned routines, reminder schedules and explicitly saved endpoints stay in this browser until removed. Clear them in the app’s Safety panel or browser settings. Route results may be reused in memory for up to one minute. Choose Save draft to keep feedback in this tab. Share feedback opens your device share controls or copies text. Download draft saves a local file.
Location and searches
Location permission is requested only when you press Use my location. Search terms, selected route endpoints and weather coordinates are sent to the configured geographic services when requested. Map tile providers receive your IP address and viewed map area. The application does not perform background location tracking.
Local data and retention
When you explicitly continue a homepage walk in the app, selected places are held in sessionStorage in that tab for up to five minutes and removed when read. No route history or contacts are included in this transfer. Trusted contacts, emergency numbers, report drafts and map appearance are stored in localStorage on this browser until cleared. They are not encrypted by this application. Use Safety → Clear local personal data to remove contacts and report drafts; appearance can be reset separately. Search results are cached in server memory for up to five minutes, with at most 100 entries. Hosting and provider log retention must be configured and disclosed by the operator before launch.
Accounts, images and reports
Attaching or taking a photo prepares a resized JPEG on your device. Saving a local draft stores the image, issue location, note and optional rating in this browser profile. When the backend is enabled, submitting for public review sends these fields to the moderation service. Approved reports are shared with other walkers. The separate photo-analysis button sends the image to the configured service for an AI suggestion. Exporting or sharing a file is your choice. Do not include someone else’s personal information.
Third parties and security
Development providers include OpenStreetMap tiles/Nominatim, FOSSGIS Valhalla and Open-Meteo. Google Fonts receives connection information when fonts load. Hosting is not selected yet. TLS and provider security depend on the operator; this project makes no certification claim.
Your choices and requests
Deny location access and choose points manually. Revoke permission in browser settings. Delete local records through the app or browser site-data settings. No account exists to delete in this pilot. The operator must provide a working access, correction, erasure and grievance channel before collecting accounts or reports.
Children and Indian privacy law
This pilot is not designed to collect children’s accounts or public submissions. Do not enter a child’s personal details. Before adding those services, the operator must assess applicable parental consent and child-data restrictions. India’s DPDP Act and 2025 Rules have phased commencement; review the official notifications and applicability before public launch. This notice is a draft for owner and legal review, not a compliance certification.
