Privacy Policy

Who we are

Spot Wales is run by Gregory Media. If you have any questions about this policy or your data, email us at rhys@gregorymedia.co.uk.

What we collect

• Photos you scan. When you scan a landmark, the photo is sent to our systems so we can identify the place and show you its story. Scanned photos are stored privately and are never shared publicly.
• Account details. If you create a free account, we store your email address, display name and profile photo so you can save your scans and collection.
• Location (optional). If you allow it, we use your device's location to suggest nearby places. We don't store a history of where you've been.
• Usage information. We keep a record of scans (which landmark, when) to power your collection, badges and to improve the service.

How we use it

We use this information only to run Spot Wales: identifying landmarks, saving your collection and badges, and understanding how the app is used so we can improve it. We don't sell your data, and we don't use your photos for advertising.

Who sees your data

Your scans and account details are private to you. Our small admin team may review scan results to check the identification is accurate. We use trusted service providers (for hosting, accounts and image identification) who process data on our behalf and aren't allowed to use it for their own purposes.

Your choices

• You can scan landmarks without creating an account.
• You can delete your account at any time by emailing us — we'll remove your account, scans and profile.
• You can ask for a copy of the data we hold about you.

Changes to this policy

If we make significant changes, we'll update this page and note the date above.
