If you give SnaccMate access to your location in your device settings, we collect information about your location when you use your mobile device. We do this to personalize your app experience, help you connect with nearby users, and provide location-based recommendations and features.

This may include information such as your device's coordinates (latitude/longitude). We only collect location data if you grant permission.

Location access is required to use this application. If you do not grant location permission, you will not be able to access or use the core features of the app.

You can always turn off location access if you change your mind:

• iPhone: Go to Settings > Privacy & Security > Location Services > SnaccMate
• Android: Go to Settings > Location > SnaccMate > Permissions > Location

We collect location data to enable features such as matching with nearby users, providing location-based recommendations, and enhancing your experience on the platform. Location data may be collected while the app is in use and, with your permission, in the background to support these features.

We use this data solely to provide and improve core app functionalities. You can control location access at any time through your device settings.
