3. Location Data

To provide accurate navigation assistance, Mapstel may access your device's location services.

We implement appropriate security measures to protect your personal information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure.

6. Data Retention

We retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to provide our services and fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy. Early access subscriber information will be retained until the full launch of Mapstel, after which you can manage your data preferences through the application.

Depending on your location, you may have the right to:

• Access the personal information we hold about you
• Request correction of inaccurate information
