Your photos and locations, only for your journey.

01 / Scope

Scope

This policy applies to the Tabiato iOS app (the “App”) provided by HARA Takahiko (the “Provider”) and the website that publishes this policy (the “Site”). Apps and services you select through the iOS share sheet are governed by their respective privacy policies.

02 / Data

Data we handle

The App does not request Core Location permission for your current location and does not use accounts or contacts. It does not request App Tracking Transparency permission. Firebase Analytics is enabled, but Analytics collection of IDFA and IDFV and use of Analytics data for ad personalization are disabled. Firebase Crashlytics is not used. Identifiers processed by Google Mobile Ads vary with consent, device settings, and Google's serving configuration.

03 / Purpose

Purposes of processing

• To place photo capture locations on a map and calculate routes between them.
• To create still images and videos combining your photos, map, and route on your device.
• To save work in local history or Photos, or pass it to a share destination you choose.
• To aggregate use and outcome information for App screens and features to improve functionality, quality, and product decisions.
• To deliver a rewarded ad when you choose and temporarily unlock an additional theme.
• To deliver the Site safely and reliably and detect abuse or operational failures.
• To comply with legal obligations and respond to infringement, fraud, or misuse.

If data is used for a materially incompatible purpose, the Provider will give notice and obtain consent where required.

04 / Service providers

External services and disclosures

Apple Maps

The App uses Apple MapKit and Apple Maps for map display, map imagery, and directions. Apple may process the request time, device and software information, visible map boundaries, route origin and destination, and travel mode under its policies. See Apple Maps & Privacy.

Google Analytics for Firebase

The App uses Google Analytics for Firebase to collect screen views, use of key features, processing outcomes, and coarsely bucketed counts. Photos, GPS coordinates, journey titles, filenames, free-form text, and raw error messages are not included in Analytics events. The App uses an Analytics SDK configuration without IDFA collection capability, disables IDFV collection, and disables the use of Analytics data for ad personalization. You can stop future collection from the App's Settings screen. See Privacy and Security in Firebase and the Google Privacy Policy.

Firebase Hosting

The Site is delivered through Google Firebase Hosting. Google states that Firebase Hosting processes incoming request IP addresses for abuse detection and detailed usage analysis and retains IP data for a few months. See Privacy and Security in Firebase and the Google Privacy Policy. The App includes Firebase Core and Firebase Analytics, but does not use Firebase Crashlytics, Authentication, or cloud storage.

Google Mobile Ads (AdMob) and consent management

The App uses the Google Mobile Ads SDK to show a rewarded ad only after you choose to view one for an additional theme. Google may process IP address, approximate location, device and app information, device- or app-scoped identifiers, ad impressions and video views, crash logs, and performance information for ad delivery, frequency control, fraud prevention, measurement, and service improvement. Google User Messaging Platform presents advertising choices where required and lets eligible users revisit those choices from the App's settings. See How Google uses advertising data and the Google Privacy Policy.

Share destinations you select

When you use the iOS share sheet, the created image or video is passed to the app or person you choose. The recipient’s terms and policies apply after sharing. The Provider does not automatically choose a destination or publish your work without your action.

The Provider does not disclose personal data to other parties except as described here, with your consent, when required by law, or when necessary to protect life, safety, property, or legal rights. Where the Provider appoints a processor, it will require protections consistent with this policy and applicable law through appropriate terms and oversight.

05 / Retention

Retention and deletion

• Working photo copies: Stored in the device’s temporary area and deleted when you clear the App or import another selection. iOS may also purge temporary storage.
• Draft and share files: Stored temporarily on device and may remain until iOS removes them.
• Still images saved to Journey Records: Kept on device until you delete the record or uninstall the App.
• Files saved to Photos: Remain in your photo library after the App is removed and can be deleted in the Photos app.
• Advertising and consent information: Kept by Google and on the device for the period needed for ad delivery, consent records, fraud prevention, and measurement. The period varies by data type, your settings, and Google's policies.
• Analytics data: Retained according to the Google Analytics property settings and Google's policies. Turning collection off clears unsent events on the device and resets the Analytics app-instance identifier. Aggregated data sent before collection was disabled may not be deleted immediately.
• Firebase Hosting request logs: Retained for the period set by Google; Google describes IP-data retention as a few months.

The App has no user account or Provider-operated cloud storage for your artwork, so the Provider does not hold a server-side copy it can delete on request. Uninstalling the App deletes its app-container data. Copies in Photos or at share destinations must be deleted separately.

06 / Your choices

Your choices and withdrawal

• Only items you choose with the iOS Photos picker are passed to the App. If you use collection selection, the App reads up to 200 photos only from the collection you explicitly choose.
• Route information is sent to Apple Maps only when you start route search.
• Read access is requested only when you use collection selection, and add-only Photos permission is requested only when you save artwork. You can change these permissions later in iOS Settings.
• Usage-data collection is enabled by default. You can stop or resume it at any time from the App's Settings screen. No new Analytics events are sent after it is disabled.
• You can remove working data with Clear and delete saved artwork from Journey Records.
• Ads appear only after you select an additional theme and then choose to view an ad. You can use the core journey, map, and album features without viewing an ad.
• Where advertising privacy options are required, you can revisit or change them from the App's Settings screen.
• You can stop using and uninstall the App to remove data in its app container.

07 / Security

Security

The App performs processing on device where practical and limits transmissions to data needed for map, routing, and usage-analytics features. iOS file protection is applied to Journey Records, and communications with external services use the encrypted transport provided by those platforms. No method of electronic storage or transmission is completely secure.

08 / International processing

International processing

Apple Maps, Google Analytics for Firebase, Firebase Hosting, and Google Mobile Ads may process data outside your country or region. Each provider handles that data under its applicable terms, data-protection commitments, and privacy policy.

09 / Children

Children

The App is not directed primarily to children and does not collect age, name, or contact details. Minors should use the App with parental consent or supervision where appropriate.

10 / Changes

Changes to this policy

This policy may be updated when features, service providers, or legal requirements change. Material changes will be explained clearly on the Site or in the App, and renewed consent will be obtained where required. The latest version and update date will be posted here.
