Privacy Policy
Effective Date: [2026.06.22]
1. Overview
Logger ("we," "our," or "us") provides a location-based logging app that allows travelers to share real discoveries and inconveniences tied to specific places.
Our goal is to help people better understand what is happening in real locations by sharing useful, honest, and location-based user experiences.
This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights and choices.
2. Information We Collect
We may collect the following information depending on how you use the app:
(a) Account Information
• Username
• Email address
• Nationality
• Birthday
• Profile image
(when signing in via Google or other authentication providers)
(b) User Content
• Text logs you create
• Photos you upload or capture within the app
• Selected categories/tags
• Timestamp of posting
(c) Location Data (Precise Location)
We collect precise location data only if you allow "Accurate" location access on your device.
Location data is used to:
• Attach a place to your log
• Display logs on the map
• Show nearby logs
If location access is denied, you may still create logs by manually selecting or entering a location (if available).
(d) Usage Data
Basic app interaction data such as:
• Screens viewed
• Search and filter usage
• General feature usage
This data is used to improve reliability and prevent abuse.
(e) Device / Diagnostics Data
Crash logs and performance data may be collected to maintain app stability.
(f) Analytics Data
We use Firebase Analytics to collect limited usage data such as:
• Log publishing activity
• Map viewing activity
• Filter usage
• General feature interactions
This data is used solely to improve the functionality and usability of Logger.
We do not use collected data for advertising personalization.
(g) Device Identifiers
We may collect device-specific identifiers such as Advertising ID (AAID for Android, IDFA for iOS) and unique device tokens. This information is used for:
• Accurate user count and engagement analytics.
• Preventing fraudulent activities, such as automated bot registrations or spam posts.
• Distinguishing between unique users to improve the reliability of our "Trend" and "Location Focus" features.
3. How We Use Information
We use collected data to:
• Provide core functionality (create, display, search logs)
• Show logs on the map
• Improve app quality and prevent spam or abuse
• Send notifications (if enabled)
• Enforce our Terms of Use
• Comply with legal obligations
4. Public Logs and Profile Display
When you publish a log, it becomes visible to other users within Logger.
A published log may include:
• Log text
• Photos
• Selected place/location
• Timestamp
• Categories/tags
• Your profile name and profile image
If you save a log as a draft, it remains private and visible only to you until you publish it.
5. Sharing and Third-Party Disclosure
(a) Service Providers
We share data with trusted providers (e.g., Google Firebase, hosting services) only to operate the app, analyze performance, and deliver relevant notifications or advertisements within the app.
(b) Business Partners and Insights
We may share aggregated, anonymized, or statistical data with our business partners, including advertisers, tourism operators, and municipalities. This data is used for:
• Analyzing tourism trends and user behavior patterns.
• Improving local services and infrastructure.
• Developing and measuring the effectiveness of marketing campaigns.
This information is strictly de-identified and does not include any data that could reasonably be used to identify you personally.
(c) Advertising
As of the current version, Logger does not display third-party advertisements and does not share your personal data with third-party advertisers. If we decide to introduce advertising in the future, we will update this Privacy Policy and provide notice to our users.
6. Your Choices and Controls
