Privacy Policy

Last updated: January 24, 2026

Your privacy is important to us. It is MGRS Map's policy to respect your privacy regarding any information we may collect from you across our application, MGRS Map, and other sites we own and operate.

1. Information We Collect

We only ask for personal information when we truly need it to provide a service to you. We collect it by fair and lawful means, with your knowledge and consent.

Location Data

Our application requires access to your device's location to:

• Display your current position on the map (MGRS/LatLong).
• Calculate distances and azimuths to targets.
• Record tracks or waypoints as actively requested by you.

Location data is processed locally on your device and is not transmitted to our servers unless you explicitly share your location data using the app's sharing features.

Camera and Photos

We require access to your camera and photo gallery to:

• Take photos to attach to specific map markers or locations.
• Save captured images to your device's gallery.

Storage

We access your device's storage to:

• Save and load map data (e.g., offline maps, KML/KMZ files).
• Store exported data (e.g., Excel reports, waypoint lists).

2. Use of Information

We do not share any personally identifying information publicly or with third-parties, except when required to by law. The app operates primarily offline and data created (markers, tracks) stays on your device.

3. Third-Party Services

Our application may use third-party services for map rendering (such as OpenStreetMap, CartoDB, etc.). These services may collect information used to identify you according to their own privacy policies.

4. Security

We retain collected information for as long as necessary to provide you with your requested service. What data we store, we’ll protect within commercially acceptable means to prevent loss and theft, as well as unauthorized access, disclosure, copying, use or modification.

5. Children's Privacy

These Services do not address anyone under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children under 13.

6. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. Thus, you are advised to review this page periodically for any changes. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page.

7. Contact Us

If you have any questions or suggestions about our Privacy Policy, do not hesitate to contact us.
