Privacy Policy

Effective date: 3 October 2026

Mallikarjuna Mallisetty from ConvertOnline.org built the GPS Area Calculator app as a free app. This Service is provided at no cost and is intended for use as is.

This Privacy Policy explains how information is handled when you use the GPS Area Calculator app.

Information We Collect Directly

The app does not require user registration or login. We do not ask you to provide personal information such as your name, phone number, email address, or postal address.

We do not operate a developer server that stores your saved places, measured points, land-area calculations, or map drawings.

Location Data

The app may request access to your device location to provide its core GPS-area calculation features. Location access may be used to show your current position, add GPS points, calculate areas or distances, and work with map-based measurements.

Location access is used only when permitted by you. You can change or revoke location permission at any time through your Android device settings, although GPS-based features may not work correctly without location access.

Saved Places and Measurements

Saved places and measurement information are stored locally on your device. We do not upload, store, or share your saved places or measurement points on our own servers.

Maps and Core App Functionality

The app may use Google Maps or related Google mapping services to display maps and support area-measurement functionality. Google may process information needed to provide those mapping services according to Google's own privacy policies.

Advertising and Google AdMob

The app uses Google AdMob / Google Mobile Ads SDK to display advertisements. Google AdMob may automatically collect or process certain information for advertising, measurement, security, fraud prevention, and service improvement.

Depending on the device, consent status, region, and applicable law, this information may include:

Google may use this information to provide, measure, secure, and improve advertisements, prevent fraud and abuse, and, where permitted, personalize ads. Ads may be personalized or non-personalized depending on your location, consent choices, device settings, and applicable law.

Consent and Privacy Choices

Depending on your location, the app may display a privacy or consent message before certain advertising-related processing occurs. Where required, Google's User Messaging Platform (UMP) or Google-certified consent-management features may be used to collect or respect privacy choices.

Users in the European Economic Area (EEA), the United Kingdom, and Switzerland may be asked to make choices about advertising personalization and related data processing. Where required, users can review or change available privacy choices through the privacy controls provided in the app.

United States Privacy Rights

Residents of certain U.S. states may have rights relating to personal information, including rights to access, delete, or correct certain information and to opt out of certain uses for targeted advertising, sale, or sharing, depending on applicable law.

We do not receive payment for selling your saved GPS measurements or location points. Certain advertising-related data disclosures by Google AdMob may, however, be treated as a "sale," "sharing," or targeted advertising under some U.S. state laws. Where applicable, privacy choices may be provided through Google's privacy messaging.

Advertising Identifiers and Device Controls

On Android devices, the Google Mobile Ads SDK may use the Android advertising identifier or other device identifiers, subject to device settings, SDK configuration, consent, and applicable law. You can manage advertising-related settings through your Android device and Google account settings.

Log, Diagnostic, and Performance Data

Google AdMob and Google platform services may process diagnostic and performance information such as device or operating-system information, app version, crash information, app launches, and other technical statistics. This information may be used to maintain, secure, measure, and improve their services.

Data Retention and Deletion

Saved places and measurements remain on your device until you delete them, clear the app's data, or uninstall the app. We do not maintain a server-side database containing those measurements.

Information processed by Google services is retained according to Google's own policies and applicable law.

Children's Privacy

This app is not directed to children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly ask children under 13 to provide personal information directly to us.

Third-Party and Platform Services

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes to the app, Google services, legal requirements, or our privacy practices. Changes will be posted on this page with a revised effective date.
