Flowx respects your privacy. This privacy policy explains our practices regarding data collection and sharing. Flowx does not collect, store, share or sell any personal information from app users.
Flowx does collect crash (debug) logs, app interactions and device identifiers, all for analytical purposes to understand how users use the app or how it performs. These data are collected via the third-party service provider Sentry (see details regarding Sentry below). If the user emails a debug log via the feedback menu, the data is collected directly by Flowx. Any data collected is transferred over a secure connection using data encryption in transit.
Flowx does not share any user data with other companies or organizations.
android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION
android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION
To find your initial location, we use the IP address to guess the location of your internet service provider (ISP), so we don't have to ask for location permissions. This third-party service is provided by MaxMind (see below).
We only ask for location permissions when you turn on Travel Mode so your location can be updated as you move around. Location requests are processed locally on your device and we do not transmit the data to our servers or any third party.
android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE_MEDIA_PROJECTION
android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE_MICROPHONE
This is used when you record a movie of the screen to share. Although, audio permissions may be included Flowx does not record audio at all. This permission is part of the HB Recorder library we use in Flowx to make the recording.
While we do not share any user data with third parties, our app uses the following third-party services to provide weather and mapping functionality. We encourage you to review their respective privacy policies to understand how they handle data.
