Information on terms of use and data privacy
The app was created and is still being developed as part of a scientific experiment.
As a user of iChronoMe, you are, so to speak, a test object and observer in one, while the app serves as a tool.
The use itself is explicitly outside of any legal framework or similar fictions!
On your part, there is no claim to a guarantee that the information that is displayed in this app or otherwise processed, actually is correct .
This app was created by someone who has not studied computer science or astronomy or anything else.
If you really want to know exactly what time it is, build a 100-meter sundial .
There is no guarantee that the app will still be available tomorrow or that it will work at all, so you better enjoy every moment.
All source code can be found on github.com and can be used as desired.
Interactions with "your" or other data:
● Geocoding
External services from various providers are used to provide a location with a nice title or to determine information about time zones.
Here the longitude and latitude of the location is sent via Internet
Conversely, e.g. if you enter a location in an appointment with the help of such services the App tries to find the corresponding location to be able to correctly calculate the solar time of the appointment.
● local cache
In order to save data and battery, location information is temporarily stored, regardless of whether it is your real location or you choose a location on the map.
This data is of course stored in such a way that usually no other app can access it (may except special system apps or your device is "rooted").
In 'settings' you have the possibility to empty this buffer at any time.
The same happens if you clear the cache in the system settings of your device.
● some information about usage is collected so iChronoMe roughly recognizes whether it is used little or rather intensively. This data also remains exclusively in a locally protected memory and currently serves no purpose.
For example this will allow us, not annoying you to rate the app before you finished reading this text.
● Otherwise, iChronoMe only transfers data if you expressly allow it:
• When errors occur
• When sending a cantact or support request
For these cases, a kind of random character string was generated, which should enable developers to recognize when several errors occur on the same device.
Since this is an cryptical identifier, there should be no way to identify you or anything like that.
● All data traffic is SSL-encrypted.
● This clauses can be changed at any time and you will get informed at the following app-update.
so, all the best
