Aroundwalk · Privacy Policy

Your walks stay on your device.

Aroundwalk is a native iOS walking app. This policy describes the data practices of the version currently represented by the Aroundwalk project.

Last updated: September 13, 2026

At a glance

Aroundwalk does not require an account. Its exploration history is stored locally on your device. The reviewed project contains no advertising, analytics, or cross-app tracking SDKs, and Nevoroa does not receive or use your exploration history for marketing.

Location

Aroundwalk uses your location to show your position, identify walking movement, and reveal areas you have explored. It requests location access that can continue while the app is not on screen, so a walk can be recorded in the background when you grant that access. Location is used only for these exploration features.

Information stored on your device

Aroundwalk stores explored map cells and walking segments in its local application-support storage so your map persists between sessions. The reviewed project contains no code that sends this exploration history to Nevoroa or to a Nevoroa server.

Maps

Aroundwalk uses Apple MapKit to display maps. Apple may process information when its map services are used, subject to Apple’s own terms and privacy practices. See Apple’s Privacy Policy for information about Apple services.

No accounts, advertising, analytics, or tracking

Aroundwalk does not ask you to create an account. The reviewed project contains no advertising, analytics, or cross-app tracking implementation. Nevoroa does not sell or rent the local exploration history created by the app.

Retention and reset

Your exploration history remains on your device until you choose Reset explored map in the app or delete the app. Reset explored map removes the locally stored explored cells and walking segments and cannot be undone. Because Nevoroa does not receive this information, it cannot remove it remotely.

Your choices

You can change or revoke location permission at any time in iOS Settings. If location access is turned off or limited, Aroundwalk may not be able to record walks or reveal new areas.

What this code review cannot confirm

The project confirms the app’s own storage and data-handling code, but it cannot by itself determine what Apple processes through MapKit or whether local app data is included in an iOS device backup. Those behaviours depend on Apple services and your device settings. This policy should be reviewed again before submission if an account, third-party SDK, server feature, iCloud sync, analytics, advertising, or a new data practice is added.

Changes to this policy

If Aroundwalk’s data practices change, this policy will be updated. The date above indicates when it was last updated.
