DeviceLab Offroad is a comprehensive Android application designed for offroad enthusiasts, overlanders, hikers, and adventure seekers. Built with Kotlin and Jetpack Compose, it combines professional-grade navigation instruments (GPS/GNSS dashboard, digital compass, altimeter, inclinometer, G-force meter) with environmental sensors and comprehensive device optimization tools. The App leverages your phone's built-in sensors to provide accurate real-time data for outdoor activities.

Minimum Android Version: Android 7.0 (API 24)
Target Android Version: Android 16 (API 36)

2.1 Sensor and Navigation Data (On-Device Only)

The App accesses the following sensor data to provide its navigation and monitoring features. All sensor data is processed in real-time on your device and is NOT tracked, logged to persistent storage, or transmitted to any server unless explicitly noted otherwise:

• GPS/GNSS Data — Coordinates (latitude, longitude), altitude, speed, heading, and satellite constellation status for the GNSS Dashboard, altimeter, and navigation features. Location is displayed in real-time only. No location history is stored, tracked, or transmitted.
• Accelerometer Data — Linear acceleration across three axes for the inclinometer (vehicle pitch and roll), G-force meter, seismometer, and accelerometer monitor.
• Gyroscope Data — Rotational velocity and orientation changes for the gyroscope monitor and motion tracking features.
• Magnetometer Data — Magnetic field readings for the digital compass heading and bearing calculations.
• Barometric Pressure — Atmospheric pressure readings for the altimeter and environmental dashboard (weather awareness).

The App is designed for offroad enthusiasts and outdoor adventure seekers and is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. Because the App stores data locally and does not require account registration, there is no direct collection of children's personal information as defined by COPPA. Advertisements displayed through AdMob are served in compliance with Google's child safety policies.

In accordance with Google Play's Data Safety requirements:

• Data collected: Device performance metrics and sensor readings (stored locally on-device only). Location data (used in real-time, not stored or shared). Advertising identifiers (collected by Google AdMob).
• Data shared with third parties: Advertising data shared with Google AdMob only.
• Data handling is secure: Device data is stored within Android's application sandbox. Network communications use encrypted connections.
• Data can be deleted: Users can delete all local data by clearing App storage or uninstalling.

Since all device and sensor data processing occurs locally on your device, no international data transfers of your personal information occur through our App. Third-party services (Google AdMob, Google Play Services) may transfer data internationally according to their own privacy policies and in compliance with applicable data transfer mechanisms (Standard Contractual Clauses, adequacy decisions, etc.).

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we make changes, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page.
