Privacy Policy – Globetrail
This Privacy Policy describes how Aumatex SRLS, as data controller, manages data related to the Globetrail mobile app.
1. Data Controller
- Aumatex SRLS
- Registered office: Via Umberto Biancamano, 25 – 00185 Rome (RM)
- VAT / Tax ID: IT15617831001
- Email: info@aumatex.it
- PEC: aumatex@pec.it
- Website: https://aumatex.it
2. Data Collected
- Globetrail requires no sign-up, no login and creates no account: name, email, phone number and location are never collected.
- The app collects anonymous, aggregated usage data — which screens are opened, which features are used, whether an action succeeded — to understand how it is used and where it needs work.
- This data is not linked to your identity and cannot be traced back to you.
3. Data Processed Locally on Device
- Functional information is saved exclusively on the user's device and not transmitted to proprietary servers.
- This includes: preferences (theme, language), travel progress (visited countries, wonders, UNESCO places), user preferences and cache data.
- Data remains stored through standard iOS operating system mechanisms.
4. Optional iCloud Backup
- If the user enables backup/sync, data may be saved to the user's personal iCloud account via Apple infrastructure.
- Aumatex SRLS does not have access to the user's iCloud data.
- Backup is managed entirely by Apple according to Apple's privacy terms.
5. No Transfer to Aumatex Servers
- The app makes no network requests to Aumatex SRLS servers: we neither receive nor store your travel data.
- The anonymous usage statistics described above are sent to TelemetryDeck.
- The leaderboard is optional and goes through Game Center: if you use it, your score and Game Center alias are handled by Apple.
- Sync and backup, when enabled, use your own iCloud account.
6. Usage Analytics, Tracking and Advertising
- The app uses no advertising SDKs, performs no profiling and does not use the advertising identifier (IDFA): there is no advertising tracking and no tracking across apps or websites.
- Usage statistics go through TelemetryDeck, an analytics service that uses no IDFA and derives a salted, non-reversible identifier.
- Before leaving the device every event passes a filter that replaces names, emails, coordinates and typed search text: only coarse dimensions such as country or feature remain.
7. Device Permissions
- The app only uses permissions necessary for its features, controlled by iOS settings.
- Any permission can be revoked by the user at any time from device settings.
8. Legal Basis for Processing
- No personal data processing is performed by Aumatex SRLS through the app.
- For app functionality, the legal basis is the execution of pre-contractual or contractual measures (art. 6.1.b GDPR).
- For iCloud backup, processing is governed by user settings and Apple's privacy terms.
9. Data Retention
- Local data remains on the device until manual deletion, reset, or app uninstallation.
- Retention of data on iCloud is controlled by the user's Apple account settings.
- Aumatex SRLS does not retain such data on its systems.
10. Data Recipients
- Aumatex SRLS does not disclose users’ personal data to third parties through Globetrail.
- TelemetryDeck processes the anonymous usage statistics on our behalf.
- Apple processes iCloud data (sync and backup) and Game Center data under its own policies.
11. Transfers Outside the EU
- No transfer of personal data to Aumatex SRLS servers is planned.
- Access to iCloud follows Apple's technical infrastructure; international transfers are governed by Apple's terms.
12. Data Subject Rights
- Users may exercise rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction, and objection.
- Requests should be sent to info@aumatex.it.
- A complaint may be lodged with the Italian Data Protection Authority.
13. Minors
- Globetrail is not designed to collect personal data from minors.
- The app does not perform any data collection regardless of age.
