1. App Information

IWY Tour Guide is a mobile application designed to help users discover tourist places, listen to short or extended explanations, and receive useful guidance when visiting selected locations.

The application may include tourist information, audio or video explanations, location-based notifications, practical information about how to get to certain places, and optional premium content.

2. Information We May Collect

IWY Tour Guide may collect or use the following types of information, depending on the features used by the user:

Approximate or precise location, when required to detect nearby tourist points or provide location-based notifications.
Device information necessary for the app to function correctly.
App usage information, such as which screens or features are used.
Purchase status, when the user unlocks premium content through Google Play or Apple App Store.
Language preference, to display content in the most appropriate language.

We do not intentionally collect sensitive personal information such as health data, political opinions, religious beliefs, or financial information.

3. Location Data

IWY Tour Guide may use your device location to detect when you are near a tourist point and offer you the option to listen to or view related content.

Location access is used only to provide app functionality, such as showing relevant tourist information or triggering location-based messages.

The app does not use location data to track you continuously for advertising purposes. Location data is not sold to third parties.

You can disable location permissions at any time from your device settings. Some app features may not work correctly if location access is disabled.

IWY Tour Guide may offer free content and optional premium content.

Payments are processed by Google Play or Apple App Store. We do not receive or store your credit card number, bank account information, or payment credentials.

The app may receive confirmation of your purchase status in order to unlock premium features or content.

To provide the core functionality of the app.

To unlock premium content after a valid purchase.
To improve the app experience and fix technical issues.
To provide content in the correct language.
To comply with legal or platform requirements.

To comply with legal obligations.
To protect the security and integrity of the app.

8. Data Retention
