Haunted Places iOS Privacy Policy

Privacy Policy DigitalBox Studios built the Haunted Places Near Me app. Some features are offered free of charge and some require a paid subscription. This SERVICE is provided by DigitalBox Studios and is intended for use as is. This page is used to inform visitors regarding my policies with the collection, use, and disclosure of Personal Information if anyone decided to use my Service. If you choose to use my Service, then you agree to the collection and use of information in relation to this policy. The Personal Information that I collect is used for providing and improving the Service. I will not use or share your information with anyone except as described in this Privacy Policy. The terms used in this Privacy Policy have the same meanings as in our Terms and Conditions, which are accessible at Haunted Places Near Me, unless otherwise defined in this Privacy Policy. Information Collection and Use The app asks for access to your device location so that it can show you which places are nearby. Your location is used on your device to sort and filter places. It is not transmitted to us and it is not stored on any server we control. You can refuse this permission and continue to use the app; only the Near Me feature depends on it. Which stories you have read, and your app settings, are stored on your device only. The app does use third-party services that may collect information used to identify you.

We never receive or store your payment details. Log Data I want to inform you that whenever you use my Service, in a case of an error in the app I collect data and information (through third-party products) on your phone called Log Data. This Log Data may include information such as your device Internet Protocol (“IP”) address, device name, operating system version, the configuration of the app when utilizing my Service, the time and date of your use of the Service, and other statistics. Cookies Cookies are files with a small amount of data that are commonly used as anonymous unique identifiers. These are sent to your browser from the websites that you visit and are stored on your device's internal memory. This Service does not use these “cookies” explicitly. However, the app may use third-party code and libraries that use “cookies” to collect information and improve their services. You have the option to either accept or refuse these cookies and know when a cookie is being sent to your device. If you choose to refuse our cookies, you may not be able to use some portions of this Service. Service Providers I may employ third-party companies and individuals due to the following reasons: To facilitate our Service; To provide the Service on our behalf; To perform Service-related services; or To assist us in analyzing how our Service is used. I want to inform users of this Service that these third parties have access to their Personal Information. The reason is to perform the tasks assigned to them on our behalf. However, they are obligated not to disclose or use the information for any other purpose. Visiting the Places in This App This is the most important section in this policy, and it is not about data. The app describes real locations. For each one it includes an access note saying, as far as we have been able to establish, whether the public can visit. That note is information, not permission, and it may be out of date. Land changes hands. Sites close. Buildings become unsafe. A note that was correct when it was written can be wrong by the time you read it. Before travelling to any place listed in this app, it is your responsibility to: Confirm for yourself, from the owner or the managing body, that the site is open to visitors and on what terms; Respect private property, posted signs, fences, gates and closures, whether or not this app mentions them; Obey all applicable laws, including trespass, access and public safety laws, which differ between countries and between states, provinces and regions; Assess the physical risks yourself. Some places listed here are ruins, cliffs, caves, mines, derelict structures or remote terrain. Many of the sites in this app are private homes, working businesses, active places of worship, burial grounds or memorials. Some are sacred to particular communities. Please do not disturb the people who live, work, worship or grieve at them. Never enter private land without permission. Never trespass. DigitalBox Studios provides this information for interest and research. We make no warranty that any place is open, safe, or lawful for you to visit, and we accept no liability for any loss, injury, prosecution or other consequence arising from a decision to visit a place described in this app. That decision, and the responsibility for it, is yours. Tracking and Advertising On iOS, the app asks for your permission to track using Apple's App Tracking Transparency prompt. Tracking means linking data collected in this app with third-party data for advertising purposes, or sharing it with a data broker. You can refuse, and the app works exactly the same. Nothing is locked, hidden or degraded if you say no. If you change your mind in either direction, you can change the setting at any time in the iOS Settings app, under Privacy & Security → Tracking. If you do not grant permission, no data from this app is used for tracking. We do not currently show advertisements in this app. Security I value your trust in providing us your Personal Information, thus we are striving to use commercially acceptable means of protecting it. But remember that no method of transmission over the internet, or method of electronic storage is 100% secure and reliable, and I cannot guarantee its absolute security. Links to Other Sites This Service may contain links to other sites. If you click on a third-party link, you will be directed to that site. Note that these external sites are not operated by me. Therefore, I strongly advise you to review the Privacy Policy of these websites. I have no control over and assume no responsibility for the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third-party sites or services. Children’s Privacy These Services do not address anyone under the age of 13. I do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children under 13 years of age. In the case I discover that a child under 13 has provided me with personal information, I immediately delete this from our servers. If you are a parent or guardian and you are aware that your child has provided us with personal information, please contact me so that I will be able to do the necessary actions. Changes to This Privacy Policy I may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. Thus, you are advised to review this page periodically for any changes. I will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page.
