Privacy matters. Please read those explanation regarding your privacy carefully.

Permissions of the application

Angexis Outdoor requires following permissions:

• Fine GPS location: to locate you in case of accident
• Network communication: to send alerts and send your moves to angexis.com (and to receive ads which help fund the service).
• Read contact data: in order to import the names, e-mail addresses and phone numbers of the contacts to alert.
• Use the authentication credentials of an account: in order to secure the transmission of your data and also so that alerted people know for sure who is the person to be rescued. This built-in authentication mechanism inside Android only shares your Google e-mail address, not your password!
• Manage the account list: due to a bug in the Samsung Galaxy SPICA, the previous permission is not enough on that phone.
• Read phone state and identity: to save you the trouble of entering your phone number, which is sent within the alert messages.
• Prevent the phone from sleeping: when entering sleep mode, some phones no longer acquire the GPS positions. This permission allows the app to keep the processor awake to capture your positions properly.
• And a few other permissions which are not critical

Collected data and purposes

The application sends following personal data, in a secured manner, to the web site of Angexis Outdoor:

• Your Google account (e-mail address) used to authenticate you.
  Under rare circumstances, Angexis may contact you on this address (e.g. for R&D purposes or to warn you of coming changes in the terms or privacy policies).
• Your name and phone number (both of which can be edited in the application settings) in order to produce adequate alert messages.
• The name, e-mail addresses and/or phone numbers of the contacts that need to be alerted.
• Your timed locations (during the whole monitoring and only during that monitoring)
• For every track, the timed location of each triggered alert.
• The application and service usage durations (in order to track usage and costs)

Optionally (can be turned off in the application settings) following data will be share, in a not secured manner

• In case of an app crash, some debug traces holding the last actions performed in the application as well as the cause of the crash, the used Google account, the application version, the Android version and the phone model would be sent.
• Your location is provided to the ad provider (if ads are displayed).

Data confidentiality

Except, of course, in case of an alert or in case of explicit sharing via e-mail, no personal data are shared with third parties: neither your personal data, nor the personal data of your contacts.

In case of an alert, or explicit sharing via e-mail, the data of the latest track are shared with people you selected to rescue you.

In order for the alerted people to view those data without the need for a specific account, your track data will be visible to anyone holding the link sent as part of the alert message, or the sharing e-mail.
That link is however an impossible one to guess and if anyone would find it by raw luck (there are 10 power 38 possible links), the displayed web page does not mention who you are.
Additionally, to avoid the need for alerted people to copy such a complex link from an SMS alert on their computer, the SMS alerts hold a code (with 24 millions possible values), which along with the 4 last digits of their phone number, will also give them access to the track. This code is only valid for 24 to 48 hours though.

Within Angexis, the persons empowered to browse your location data are allowed to do so, only with your prior consent, for research and development goals or if you require access yourself to your personal data.

The sent e-mails and text messages (SMS) are carried by by different service providers (carriers) which may keep track of the e-mail and SMS content and data.

Angexis Outdoor web site is hosted at Google, which adheres to the Safe Harbor principles and who claims not to share the stored data with third parties.

Data storage duration

Your track data are stored for a duration that cannot exceed 2 months (in practice, they are erased after 1 month) and can be erased at any time from within the application.

Other data holding the date and duration of your usage of the service are stored up to a year.

The log file of the server (holding the IP address of the phone(s)/computer(s) you use to connect) are kept for 90 days

Your rights of data access

Conforming to French law, you are granted a right of access and rectification of your personal data stored by Angexis. You can exercise it by addressing a request to Angexis

Angexis Outdoor has performed a data declaration to the French CNIL
