This privacy policy applies to the Disco app (the "Application") for mobile devices, created by Disco Your World, LLC ("we" or "us") as a freemium service. This service is provided "AS IS".
The Application collects information when you download and use it, including:
The Application also collects your device's precise location to provide core functionality. Specifically, location data is used to:
When you browse guide books without granting precise location, we derive an approximate, city-level location from your device's IP address to suggest guide books near you. This lookup runs on our own servers using a locally hosted MaxMind GeoLite2 database — your IP address is not sent to MaxMind or any other third party — and the approximate location is used only to answer that request and is not stored.
This product includes GeoLite Data created by MaxMind, available from https://www.maxmind.com.
For a better experience, we may also ask you to provide certain personally identifiable information, including your email address, user ID, purchase history, and app interaction data. This information is retained and used as described in this policy.
| Data type | Purpose | Shared with |
|---|---|---|
| Email address | Account creation and management | Not shared |
| User ID | Account management | Not shared |
| Precise location | GPS-triggered narration, nearby guide book discovery, walking directions | Google Routes API, OpenStreetMap/Overpass API |
| Approximate location (from IP address) | Suggesting nearby guide books when precise location isn't available | Not shared — derived on our servers using an offline MaxMind GeoLite2 database |
| Purchase history | In-app purchases (guide books) | Apple App Store, Google Play |
| App interactions | Analytics to improve the app | Google Firebase Analytics |
| Crash logs | Bug diagnosis and app stability | Google Firebase Crashlytics |
| Device identifiers | Analytics (automatically collected by Firebase) | Google Firebase |
The Application uses AI technologies to generate guide book content. This processing occurs on our backend before content is published to the app — your personal data is not used as input to AI generation, and no AI processing occurs on your device.
The Application uses the following third-party services, each with its own privacy policy:
We may also disclose your information when required by law (such as in response to a subpoena), to protect the rights or safety of users, or to investigate fraud.
You can stop all collection of information by uninstalling the Application using the standard uninstall process for your device or via the app marketplace.
We retain your data for as long as you use the Application and for a reasonable time thereafter. To request deletion of your data, contact us at privacy-policy@discoyourworld.com and we will respond in a reasonable time.
The Application is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us at privacy-policy@discoyourworld.com and we will delete it promptly.
We take the confidentiality of your information seriously and maintain physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards to protect the data we process.
This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time. We will notify you of changes by updating this page. Continued use of the Application after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
By using the Application, you consent to the processing of your information as described in this Privacy Policy.
