This policy applies to Toilet Compass and this policy page. It supplements the general Persie0 privacy policy; for this app, the more specific information on this page takes precedence.
Information used on your device
The app stores or processes the following information locally for the features you choose:
- downloaded regional toilet databases
- current location and compass direction during use
- cached nearby results and settings
Local processing is based on Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR where it is needed to provide a requested feature. Settings that are technically necessary are stored under the necessity exception in § 165(3) TKG 2021. Local information normally remains until you delete it, clear the app's data or remove the app.
Permissions
Toilet Compass may request these device permissions:
- Precise/approximate location: find and rank nearby toilets.
- Compass/motion sensors: point toward a toilet.
- Network: download toilet databases, map tiles and diagnostics.
Permissions can be changed in the operating-system settings. A feature that depends on a denied permission may then be unavailable.
Services and data transfers
The following services receive information only for the purposes described below.
Sentry (EU, standard event capture)
Find and fix defects; protect stability and security. The information involved is: Crash and performance diagnostics, including the error and stack trace, app version, device and operating-system information, technical runtime data and the network IP address visible to Sentry. Common direct identifiers are filtered before transmission, although diagnostic text may still contain information entered or displayed in the app.
Recipient: Sentry; project data hosted in the EU, subject to possible international support/access. Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR. You may object; do not put unnecessary personal data in free-text fields. Retention: 90 days in the configured Sentry project, then deletion; longer only for a concrete security/legal claim.
Regional toilet database downloads
Download the offline database you select and verify its integrity. The information involved is: IP, request metadata and requested continent database; no live GPS coordinate is included in the download URL.
Recipient: GitHub. Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR and Art. 6(1)(f) for secure distribution. Retention: Database remains on device until removed/uninstalled. GitHub retains download logs under its policy; Persie0 does not keep a separate log.
Map tiles and geographic content
Display the map area you request. The information involved is: IP, user agent, request time and requested map-tile coordinates/zoom, which can reveal the area viewed. The map provider does not receive a Persie0 account password.
Recipient: CARTO/CDN and, where directly requested, OpenStreetMap-related services. Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR for the requested map and Art. 6(1)(f) for efficient delivery. Retention: Persie0 does not keep tile-request logs; provider log retention applies. Local cache is cleared by the app/OS or uninstall.
External directions/map action
Open directions at your request. The information involved is: Destination and any current-location/context your selected maps app adds after you choose to open directions; IP and device/account data under that provider's settings.
Recipient: The maps app/site you select. Legal basis: Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR; the selected external provider is a separate controller. Retention: Under the external provider's account and privacy settings; Persie0 does not receive the route.
This policy page
GitHub Pages receives the IP address, browser information, request time and requested page path to deliver and protect this page. Persie0 does not add analytics or advertising cookies to these policy pages. Processing is based on Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR; GitHub's infrastructure retention applies.
Processing outside the EEA
Some service providers may process information outside the European Economic Area. Where GDPR requires safeguards, processing relies on an adequacy decision, an applicable EU–US Data Privacy Framework certification, or Standard Contractual Clauses together with appropriate safeguards. You may request information about the applicable safeguard by email.
Deletion and retention
Local data can be removed through the app's delete or reset functions, by clearing app data, or by removing the app. Information held by a connected provider follows the period stated above and that provider's deletion process. Requests concerning data controlled by Persie0 can be sent to persie0@protonmail.com.
Your rights
Subject to the GDPR's conditions, you may request access, correction, deletion, restriction and portability; object to processing based on legitimate interests; and withdraw consent for future processing. You may also lodge a complaint with the Austrian Data Protection Authority.
Children
The app is not specifically directed at children. In Austria, consent for an information-society service can generally be given from age 14; below that age, parental authorization may be required. Provider-specific higher age limits described above continue to apply.
Changes and contact
This policy may change when the app or a connected service changes. The effective date appears at the top of the page. Questions and privacy requests can be sent to persie0@protonmail.com.
