GeoSignal Privacy Policy

Effective July 12, 2026

GeoSignal provides geopolitical briefings, regional analysis, impact assessments, maps, and market context. This policy explains the limited data used to operate the app and service.

Data GeoSignal processes

• Service and security data: the app creates a random client session. The service stores a one-way hash of the session token, session identifiers, timestamps, and entitlement status so it can return the correct content access level. Hosting infrastructure may process standard request metadata such as IP address, user agent, and request time for delivery, security, and operational diagnostics.
• Subscription data: if paid subscriptions are introduced, GeoSignal may process Apple-provided product, transaction, renewal, expiry, refund, and revocation identifiers. GeoSignal does not receive or store payment card details.
• On-device data: the app stores the latest already-authorized edition in its cache and stores its opaque session token in the iOS Keychain. If you choose to set a Watchlist reminder, its notification content and schedule remain on your device and notification permission is requested only in response to that action. Cache files are excluded from device backups.

How data is used

Data is used only to deliver and secure the service, maintain content access, restore subscriptions, diagnose failures, prevent abuse, and meet legal obligations. GeoSignal does not use third-party advertising SDKs, sell personal data, or track users across other companies' apps and websites.

Sharing

Data may be processed by infrastructure providers needed to host and secure GeoSignal and by Apple for App Store distribution and subscription processing. Those providers are expected to protect data under their applicable terms and privacy obligations. GeoSignal may disclose information when required by law or to protect the service and its users.

Retention and deletion

Operational logs are retained only as long as reasonably needed for security and reliability. Session and entitlement records are retained while needed to provide access, resolve subscription issues, prevent fraud, or comply with legal obligations. Removing the app deletes its local cache; iOS may retain Keychain items according to platform behavior. You may request deletion of server-side session or subscription records through the support contact published on GeoSignal's App Store page.

Your choices

GeoSignal does not request access to location, contacts, photos, camera, microphone, advertising identifiers, or health data. You can stop service data processing by discontinuing use and deleting the app. Subscription management and cancellation are available through your Apple Account subscription settings if subscriptions are introduced.

Changes

This policy may be updated as GeoSignal evolves. The effective date above will change when material revisions are published.
