m. Location Information During Walks
If you start a walk in the App and allow location access, we collect your device's precise location (GPS coordinates and their timestamps) while that walk is in progress, including when the App is running in the background or your device is locked.
We use this information to:
- Draw the route of your walk on a map;
- Calculate the distance walked; and

Location is collected only while a walk you have started is in progress, and collection stops when the walk is paused or finished.
Location access is optional. You can decline it or turn it off at any time in your device settings, and you can still record walks without a route.
Walk routes are stored with the related walk record. They may be visible to people you have invited to share your pet's records. A user added as a walker can see routes only for the walks they recorded.
