What Geo Alert does

Geo Alert is a location-based alert app. You mark a place on the map, configure the alerts, and the app notifies you when you're nearby. That simple.

What we DON'T collect

Let's be straightforward:

• 🚫 Your location — it's processed on your phone and that's it. It doesn't go anywhere.
• 🚫 Personal data — we don't ask for name, email, phone number, nothing.
• 🚫 Analytics — no tracking, no pixels, nothing monitoring you.
• 🚫 Usage data — we don't know what you do in the app. And we don't want to.

What stays on your phone

The app saves some data locally on your device:

• 📍 Your saved places (name, position, distances)
• 🔔 History of alerts that have fired
• ⚙️ Your preferences (language, theme)

This data never leaves your phone. If you uninstall the app, it's automatically deleted.

External services

The app uses two Google services for one thing only: searching addresses.

• Google Places / Geocoding — when you search for an address to add a place, the text you typed is sent to Google to find the location. That's it, only at that moment.
• Apple Maps / Google Maps — to display the map. It only receives the visible region on screen.

Permissions

The app only asks for what's necessary:

• 📍 Location — to know when you're near a saved place, even with the app closed.
• 🔔 Notifications — to notify you when an alert fires.
• 📳 Vibration — for vibration-type alerts.

You can revoke any permission in your phone settings at any time.

Security

Your data is protected by your phone's operating system (iOS or Android). We recommend keeping a password or biometrics enabled on your device.

Children

The app is not directed to children under 13 years of age.
