This policy applies to the 168 offline map and navigation applications published through the KV Maps Google Play developer account and listed below. They are designed for offline use: map rendering, route calculation, downloaded content, and saved search history are primarily processed and stored on your device. Network connections still occur for downloads, advertising, and certain optional features as described in this policy.

Apps covered by this policy

Information stored on your device

Map and navigation downloads

Depending on the features available, the applications may request manifests, map tiles, routing data, place indexes, travel-guide content, and transit datasets from hosting and content-delivery providers, including Cloudflare R2-backed services. Like ordinary internet requests, those providers may receive technical metadata such as your IP address, request time, requested file, and user-agent information.

These applications do not include your saved search history or precise GPS position in content-download requests.

Advertising and consent

The applications use Google Mobile Ads. Google and its advertising partners may process device or advertising identifiers, IP address, general location derived from the network, ad interactions, consent choices, and diagnostics, subject to your device settings, applicable law, and available consent controls.

See Google's Privacy Policy and How Google uses information for advertising.

Information received by the developer

The applications do not require an account, and KV Maps does not operate a location-history or search-history backend for them. The developer may receive aggregated advertising, usage, and application-performance reports supplied by service providers. Depending on the application version and configuration, Google Firebase components may process app-instance identifiers, device information, application interactions, and diagnostics under Google's policies.

Some application versions may offer a fuel-information contribution feature. If you deliberately submit an update, the fuel details, related place identifier and coordinates, and submission time are sent to Google Firebase/Firestore to provide that feature. The submission is not linked to an in-app user account or to your saved search history.

Permissions

Retention and service providers

On-device data remains until you remove it, clear application storage, or uninstall the application. Hosting, advertising, analytics, and Firebase providers retain technical, advertising, diagnostic, or deliberately submitted data according to their own policies and legal obligations.

Data security

Network data is transmitted to the service providers described above using encrypted HTTPS/TLS connections. On-device application data is kept in Android application storage. No storage or transmission method is completely secure, but the applications limit data handling to what is needed for available features and service-provider integrations.

Your choices

You can decline optional permissions, change location and notification permissions in Android settings, use available advertising-consent controls, remove downloaded content, clear application storage, or uninstall the application. Some features will not work without the permissions or network access they require.

Changes to this policy

This policy may be updated when application features or service providers change. The current version and its last-updated date are published on this page.
