PRAXIS SCIENCE LAB / ANDROID
GeoStamp Camera — Privacy Policy
How Praxis Science Lab handles information for this Android app.
Effective date: 2026-09-12. This notice describes Android version 0.3.2 (5) and the configuration documented below.
Praxis Science Lab is the publishing brand used by Traian Anghel. For support or privacy questions, email traiananghel@gmail.com. Include the app name and version. Do not send passwords, medical records, private recordings or other sensitive information.
Information handled by the app
Original photos, stamped copies, coordinates, capture time, optional compass bearing, project names, place labels and notes are stored in private app storage. Language and stamp preferences are stored locally. GeoStamp does not automatically upload photographs or album records to a developer-operated server and has no app account.
Map tiles are cached locally. A saved photo can include a map thumbnail. Export, Android sharing and backup write copies to the destination or app you select. ZIP backups include original photographs, locations and project names, including empty projects; they are not encrypted by GeoStamp. A chosen cloud document provider or sharing app may transfer your selected files under its own practices.
Permissions, services and sharing
Camera access is used to take photographs. Optional foreground location access supplies GPS coordinates while Camera is open; there is no background location tracking. Selected imports and backup files are accessed through Android document pickers. Exported stamped photos are written through Android MediaStore.
Internet and network-state access support OpenStreetMap maps, optional device geocoding and Google advertising/consent services. OpenStreetMap receives ordinary connection information and tile requests identifying the area being viewed. Optional address lookup sends coordinates to the device geocoding service; availability and provider practices depend on the device.
Google Mobile Ads Next-Gen and User Messaging Platform are active for test advertising in Albums. Test identifiers do not generate revenue and do not guarantee that no network or device information is processed. Google services may process connection/device information, identifiers, interactions and diagnostics according to SDK behavior and your choices. Advertising privacy options are available in Settings when the provider makes a form available. No ads are placed in the camera view.
Retention and deletion
Delete a photo in Albums to remove its original, stamped copy and attached map from private storage. Clear Android app storage or uninstall to remove private albums, preferences and map cache; automatic Android backup is disabled. Exported photographs, PDFs and ZIP backups remain at their chosen destinations until you delete them there. Restore adds missing photos and keeps existing IDs. The backup size limit is 2 GB unpacked and 150 MB per file. Map and advertising providers control their own service records and retention.
Security
Private app files use Android application storage protections. No additional database-encryption guarantee is made. Keep your device protected and control access to files you export. There is no Praxis Science Lab account to delete for this app.
Support messages and external pages
If you contact us, we receive your email address and the information you choose to send. We use it to answer your request and resolve the issue, not for advertising. Correspondence remains only as needed for that purpose and any applicable legal obligations; you can request deletion. Our email provider processes messages under its own terms. We do not sell support correspondence.
Opening this policy or other external links sends ordinary connection information to the website or browser provider. See our website privacy notice. App-local data is not automatically included in those requests.
Your choices
You can clear local data and use the contact above to ask about support correspondence or request access, correction or deletion where applicable. We may need information to identify the relevant request. You may also contact your local data protection authority. Local app information is processed to provide the functions you use; support correspondence is processed to respond to your request.
Changes
We update this notice when app behavior or relevant practices change. The date and version above identify the policy you are reading.
