3. We have obtained your information
We may collect the following information when you use the service:
1) User registration account function: When registering user applications, in order to ensure your normal use of our services, maintain the normal operation of our services, improve and optimize our service experience, and ensure the security of your account, we will collect user emails
2) Distance measurement and scoring function: In the golf playing and distance measurement functions we provide to users, we need to collect their location information. Among them, our ranging function uses the "Google Positioning SDK" to locate your current position and calculate it with our map data, providing ranging function and ball trajectory function.
3) Friendly interaction function: We provide users with social interaction functions, including adding friends, reminding users to be added information, posting graphic and text messages, commenting on social media, and reminding users that their posted information has been commented on by other users. The permissions used include "access photo albums, take photos, record recordings, and obtain Android IDs".
4) Detect software and upgrade functionality: When the user starts, we need to check the version of the user's software and determine if the user needs to upgrade to the latest version. We have used the "Software Installation List" permission for the software upgrade prompt service to ensure that the software can be upgraded and used normally even if some users have not installed any application markets.
5) Upload user profile function: When you use upload profile, post updates, or upload shared images, we will collect your shooting information, including the photos taken. You can close the camera permission at any time and stop us from collecting your shooting information. If you are an Android system phone, you can choose Application Management - Permission Management - DProfy Golf Assistant - Camera to turn off camera permissions. If you disable camera permissions, you can choose to upload images or videos from the system album to use the above functions.
6) Application self start function: In order to ensure real-time positioning, complete real-time ranging, automatically switch fairways, and automatically calculate the distance between your position and the hole cup during playing, we need to ensure the continuous operation of the application. When you hang our app in the background or press to turn off the screen, there may be a possibility that the app is mistakenly killed by the phone manager as a power consuming app, which can affect your normal use on the court. For this reason, we apply for the "App Self Start" permission from you. After you confirm, our app will continue to provide services for you when you leave.
