Pocket Trails ("us", "we", or "our") manages The MST Guide mobile application ("app" or "service").
This policy applies to all information collected or submitted on The MST Guide for Android, iOS, and any other devices and platforms.
New accounts are created through Google Authentication or with an email address and password.
Email addresses are only used for logging in, password resets, issues pertaining to your account, and responding to emails that you initiate. We don't send promotional emails.
We store information from your Google account including your account name and profile picture. This information may be changed by the user
In addition, we may use third party services such as Google Analytics that collect, monitor and analyze aggregate user data in order to increase our service's functionality. These third party service providers have their own privacy policies addressing how they use such information, which do also comply with Apple's privacy policies as well.
We may also use your posts on our service, including uploaded photos, as well as other data (including user name and location) associated with the post, for advertising purposes, including social media, Facebook ads, newsletters and ads for any media.
If you utilize our tracking feature, then your recorded track may be stored on our servers. Data gathered from tracking may be used to improve data that we provide to other users, but your personal track will remain private and secure.
If you upload comments to The MST Guide, they may be stored indefinitely unless you delete them. We may also delete inappropriate comments.
Our server software may also store basic technical information, such as your IP address, in temporary memory or logs.
We may use and store information about your location depending on the permissions you have set on your device. We use this information to provide features of our service, to improve and customize our service. You can enable or disable location services when you use our service at anytime, through your mobile device settings.
We use the information we collect to operate and improve our website, apps, and customer support.
We do not share personal information with outside parties. We may share anonymous, aggregate statistics with outside parties, such as how many people visit a particular location on the trail.
We may disclose your information in response to subpoenas, court orders, or other legal requirements; to exercise our legal rights or defend against legal claims; to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal activities, suspected fraud or abuse, violations of our policies; or to protect our rights and property.
In the future, we may sell to, buy, merge with, or partner with other businesses. In such transactions, user information may be among the transferred assets.
We implement a variety of security measures to help keep your information secure.
You may access or change your information or delete your account from the app. Additionally, you may contact us (support@pockettrails.app) to request deletion of your account.
Deleted information may be kept in backups for up to 90 days. Backups are encrypted and are only accessed if needed for app recovery.
Pocket Trails may delete your information at any time and for any reason, such as technical needs, legal concerns, abuse prevention, removal of idle accounts, data loss, or any other reason.
The MST Guide displays links and content from third-party websites, and downloads pdf files directly from third-party servers. These have their own independent privacy policies, and we have no responsibility or liability for their content or activities.
We comply with the California Online Privacy Protection Act. We therefore will not distribute your personal information to outside parties without your consent.
We do not track our customers over time and across third party websites to provide targeted advertising and therefore we do not respond to Do Not Track (DNT) signals.
We never collect or maintain information at our website from those we actually know are under 13, and no part of our website is structured to attract anyone under 13.
By using The MST Guide and providing your information, you authorize us to collect, use, and store your information outside of the European Union.
Information may be processed, stored, and used outside of the country in which you are located. Data privacy laws vary across jurisdictions, and different laws may be applicable to your data depending on where it is processed, stored, or used.
By using our app, you consent to our privacy policy.
If we decide to change our privacy policy, we will post those changes on this page. Summary of changes so far:
