Privacy Policy

Introduction

GeoTag.world ("we," "our," or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your information when you use our website and photo geotagging services.

Our Privacy-First Approach

Your photos never leave your device. GeoTag.world processes all images entirely within your web browser using client-side technology. This means:

• Your photos are never uploaded to our servers
• We cannot access, view, or store your images
• All GPS metadata extraction and editing happens locally on your device
• No image data is transmitted over the internet

We use Google Analytics and Microsoft Clarity to understand how visitors use our website. This helps us improve our services. These tools may collect:

How We Use Your Information

We use the collected information to:

• Improve and optimize our website and services

Data Sharing

We do not sell your personal information. We may share anonymized, aggregated analytics data with third-party service providers (Google, Microsoft) who help us analyze website usage. These providers have their own privacy policies governing their use of data.

Data Retention

Children's Privacy

Our services are not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe we have collected information from a child under 13, please contact us immediately.

Security

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect the information we collect. However, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure.
