Find my Phone - Family Locator

"To provide the core functionality of the App, we need access to your precise location and movement history. Without this, providing the App's main features will be impossible. We process your location data based on your consent."

The app collects precise, continuous location data and full movement history. While location tracking is the app's core purpose, this data is also shared with third parties like Google and Trax for analytics and aggregated location pattern analysis.

"We share data with Facebook to serve targeted advertisements and analyze advertising effectiveness. AdMob: This service helps us serve ads within the App and track ad performance. Appsflyer: We use Appsflyer for attribution purposes. Amplitude: Data is shared with Amplitude to analyze user behavior. Trax: We integrate Trax to gather anonymized location data, which is used solely for analyzing aggregated, non-personally identifiable location usage patterns."

User data is shared with a wide array of third parties including Facebook, AdMob, Appsflyer, Amplitude, Trax, Firebase, and others — spanning advertising, analytics, and location intelligence services.

"We may share, or permit third-party ad networks, social media companies, and other third-party services to collect information about your use of the App over time, so that they may play or display ads relevant to your interests on the App and other websites, apps, or services. These third-party ad partners may collect the following data: Device advertising identifier, Data about your interactions with ads, Usage Data."

The app enables cross-service tracking by sharing device advertising identifiers with ad networks to serve targeted ads across the app, other websites, and other services.

"Device Information: Information about your device, such as your IP address, brand and model of the device, time zone, general location, network settings, and other device-related data. Security Information: Battery status of your device and information about the App's performance, including crash reports. We also collect device battery status to enhance functionality for your group members."

The app collects battery status, network settings, IP address, device model, and other device-related data. Battery status is shared with group members, and 'other device-related data' is vaguely defined.

"We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. When changes are made, we will revise the "Last Updated" date at the top of this policy and notify you through the App or other means, as appropriate. Your continued use of the App after changes are posted signifies your acceptance of these changes."

The company can change the privacy policy at any time and treats continued use of the app as acceptance of those changes, without requiring explicit consent.

"General Data: Personal data that is no longer relevant or needed for our services will be deleted or anonymized within three years of your last activity, unless legal, security, or operational reasons require a longer retention period. Exceptions for Legal Requirements: In cases where we are required by law to retain certain information beyond typical retention periods (e.g., regulatory compliance, legal claims, audits), we will securely store the relevant data as needed."

Data may be retained for up to three years after last activity, with broad exceptions for 'security or operational reasons' that allow indefinite retention beyond that period.

"Please note that removing the App from your mobile device will not delete your personal information. To exercise any of these rights, please log into your account and navigate to the account settings to make the necessary changes or to delete your account. If you need further assistance, feel free to contact our support team at help@family-locator.com."

Uninstalling the app does not delete user data. Users must log into their account or contact support to request deletion, which could trap users who have already uninstalled the app.
