🔒 WanderMap Privacy Policy
Last updated: September 2025
🎯 What Makes WanderMap Different
WanderMap is designed from the ground up to protect your privacy. We believe you should be able to track your adventures without giving up your personal data.
📊 What We Store Permanently
WanderMap stores only:
- Road segment identifiers (like "174247412_10_17" - NOT your GPS coordinates)
- Administrative regions (city, county, state, country)
- App preferences and settings
- Segment lengths (for distance calculations)
🔧 How It Works
- Your device's GPS location is used to identify nearby road segments
- When you travel on a road, only the segment identifier is saved
- GPS coordinates are processed temporarily for road detection but not stored permanently
- All data stays on your device - nothing is uploaded to servers
🐛 Optional Bug Reports
With your explicit consent, bug reports may include recent GPS data to help diagnose issues. You always choose whether to submit bug reports and can review the data before sending.
🚫 What We DON'T Store
- Your location history or travel patterns
- Timestamps of when you visited places
- Personal identifying information
- Photos or personal content
🎛️ Your Control
- Export your data anytime as a JSON file
- Delete all data with one button in settings
- Use Privacy Mode to view history without GPS tracking
- Choose what to include in optional bug reports
🔐 Data Security
All exploration data is stored locally on your device using Android's secure storage systems. Since we don't collect personal location data, there's minimal risk to your privacy.
🕒 Data Retention
- Local exploration data: Stored until you delete it
- Crash reports: Automatically deleted after 90 days
- App preferences: Stored until you delete the app or clear data
