1. Controller Information

Logix Smart Apps is the data controller responsible for how your personal information is collected, processed, and protected when you use our mobile applications.
This privacy policy applies to our application GPS Map Camera, available on the Google Play Store.

We are committed to transparency, lawful data processing, and the secure handling of all user information.


2. About GPS Map Camera

GPS Map Camera allows users to add live location details such as latitude, longitude, date, time, address, weather, and magnetic field data to photos and videos.
The app may also include features such as GPS tagging, live maps, compass data, and gallery management.

This functionality relies on access to certain device permissions, location data, and third-party SDKs to ensure performance, personalization, and analytics.

We collect and process limited user data to enable core app functionality, improve service quality, and maintain app performance.
Depending on your usage, the app may process the following categories of data:

a. Location Data

  • Purpose: To tag captured photos and videos with precise GPS coordinates, address, and weather information.

  • Storage: Location data is not stored or shared on our servers; it remains on the user’s device unless uploaded voluntarily.

  • Control: You may disable location access anytime via your device’s permission settings.

b. Device Information & App Usage

  • Data Collected: Device model, OS version, IP address (anonymized), session duration, crash logs, and analytics identifiers.

  • Purpose: App optimization, performance tracking, and crash resolution.

  • Storage Duration: Typically retained for 12–14 months in aggregated and anonymized form.

c. Photos and Media Access

  • Purpose: Required to capture and store photos with embedded GPS stamps.

  • Scope: Images are processed locally and stored on your device or cloud storage (if you choose to sync).

4. Data Handling, Processing, and Retention

Your data is retained only as long as necessary for service delivery or legal compliance and deleted securely after that period.
