GEO SHIELD RADAR

>_ PREMISE

GEO SHIELD RADAR is the environmental co-pilot, on foot, by bike, by motorcycle or by car. It follows weather and alerts, with map, estimates and, where provided, voice guidance.

This notice explains which data are needed for the service, what we do not do, and how external services work.

>_ 1. HOW_IT_WORKS

GEO SHIELD RADAR uses your location (phone or, if enabled, a GPS tracker) to:

• show local weather context;
• update the radar layer on the map;
• compute risk estimates and alert phases;
• suggest nearby shelters when requested;
• play a weather voice bulletin (TTS), when enabled.

Without location, the service cannot work correctly.

>_ 2. LOCATION

Data processed: geographic coordinates, optional reverse-geocoded addresses on device, country code.

Purpose: forecasts, radar, alerts and features tied to your location.

Retention: on device (local preferences) and, for service requests, transmission to the weather/radar backend required to operate. We do not use location for advertising profiling.

Android permissions: location and, if used, notifications / background execution for alerts.

>_ 3. ALERTS_AND_NOTIFICATIONS

If you enable alerts, GEO SHIELD RADAR may send notifications and, where provided, voice messages related to weather risk at the set location. In countries not covered by the service package, these features remain disabled or limited.
