Delete your data
Data on your phone
Northwise has no accounts. Your saved position, bearings, places, calibration check results and settings are stored only on your phone. Your location and camera pictures are never sent anywhere. To delete your data, do either of these:
- Android Settings › Apps › Northwise › Storage › Clear storage, or
- uninstall Northwise. You can also delete single bearings and places in the app, and remove the saved position on the Position screen.
Bearing images you shared are not touched; delete them where you sent them.
Crash reports and analytics (Firebase)
The app sends crash reports (Firebase Crashlytics) and general usage analytics (Firebase Analytics), linked to a random app installation ID and the advertising ID, not to your name or e-mail. To have this data deleted:
- E-mail tecdroiddeveloper@gmail.com with the subject “Northwise data deletion request”.
- We reply within 30 days and delete the crash and analytics data we can match to your request in Firebase. Because the app has no accounts, we may ask for details such as the date and time you used the app or your phone model to find it.
Without a request, Firebase deletes this data automatically: crash reports after 90 days and user-level analytics data after 2 months. You can also reset or delete your advertising ID in Android Settings › Google › Ads (or Settings › Privacy › Ads).
What is kept
Nothing. We keep no other copy of your data, and we never sell or share it.
