1. Overview

Live Compass ("we," "our," or "us") operates the website livedcompass.com (the "Site"). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit our Site. Please read it carefully. By using the Site, you consent to the practices described in this policy.

2. Information We Collect

2.1 Information You Provide

We do not require account registration. If you contact us through our contact form or email, we collect the information you voluntarily provide, such as your name, email address, and message content.

2.2 Automatically Collected Information

When you visit the Site, certain information may be collected automatically, including your IP address, browser type, operating system, referring URLs, and pages visited. This information is used in aggregate form to analyze trends and improve the Site.

3. Google AdSense and Cookies

We use Google AdSense to serve advertisements on the Site. Google AdSense uses cookies and similar technologies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website or other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to this Site and/or other sites on the Internet.

4. Local Storage

We use browser local storage to remember your theme preference (dark or light mode). The key livecompass-theme stores a value of either "dark" or "light". This data remains on your device and is never transmitted to our servers. You can clear this data at any time by clearing your browser's local storage.

5. Geolocation and Device Orientation Data

Live Compass uses the W3C Geolocation API and Device Orientation API to provide compass, GPS, and celestial navigation features. This data is processed entirely within your browser and is never transmitted to any server. Geolocation data is used solely to calculate your position for navigation purposes. Device orientation data (compass heading, pitch, and roll) is used solely to drive the compass dial and tilt meter displays. No sensor data is stored, logged, or shared with third parties.

6. Data Sharing and Disclosure

We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer your personal information to outside parties except as required by law or to protect our rights. We may disclose information to service providers who assist us in operating the Site, provided those parties agree to keep the information confidential.

7. Data Security

We implement reasonable security measures to protect your information. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

8. Third-Party Links

The Site may contain links to third-party websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those sites. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party sites you visit.
