This Privacy Policy describes how the WhereIsThisPlace application (“the App”) handles user data. We respect your privacy and aim to collect as little personal information as possible.
Photo Deletion
- Photos uploaded for geolocation are stored only in memory during processing.

Optional LLM Feature
