Privacy Policy
Last updated: 11 July 2026Who we are
Walkabout is a walking-coverage app. Questions about privacy? Use the contact form.
What we collect and why
Account
When you sign in with Google, we receive your email address, a Google account identifier, and your basic profile (name). We use these only to create and identify your account.
Location
While you're recording a walk, the app collects your device's GPS location and stores it as the streets and coverage you've walked, tied to your account. This is the app's core function. We do not track your location in the background or when you aren't recording a walk.
How your data is stored
Your account and walk data are stored on Cloudflare infrastructure (its D1 database, R2 object storage, and KV) within Cloudflare's network. Access is scoped to your account.
Map data
Street geometry and city boundaries come from OpenStreetMap (via the Overpass and Nominatim services). The app queries these services for map data; your personal data is not sent to them.
What we don't do
No advertising. No selling or sharing of your personal data. No third-party analytics or tracking. The one third party that ever touches your data is our contact-form provider, which only relays the messages you choose to send us — see the “When you contact us” section below.
Retention and deletion
We keep your data until you delete your account. You can delete your account and all associated data at any time — see Account deletion.
Your choices
You can request access to, or deletion of, your data by using the contact form.
Children
Walkabout is not directed at children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect their data.
When you contact us
If you use our contact form, your message and the details you provide are submitted through Web3Forms, a form-handling service that relays the message to us by email. They process it only to deliver your message — not for advertising or tracking.
Changes
If this policy changes, we'll update this page and the date above.
