Location Data

When you enter or allow access to location data, we may collect your geographic location. You can at any time block geo-location collection through the settings within the Services or your device.

The mobile app does not collect your background location data after you have logged out of or closed the mobile app.

Your location data may be used to provide you with relevant information about nearby hunters or hunting teams.

If you pay for our Services, we may receive information and confirmations, such as payment receipts, from app stores or other third parties processing your payment.

We use such data only when it is needed to provide you the Services and only after you have provided your consent.
