Information Sharing

Users publicly share information with community members. Usernames appear with reports and posts. Email addresses remain hidden from public reports. Voice recordings become downloadable by other users once shared.

Privacy Controls

Users access privacy settings in-app for managing "map visibility and ad preferences" and controlling data collection through device-level settings.

Account Deletion

Deletion initiates immediately through in-app settings. Complete removal typically takes "about 2 months" though backup systems may retain data longer.

Data Retention

• Account details: retained until user removes them
• Certain data: automatically deleted after set periods
• Some information: kept for account lifetime
• Extended retention: maintained for security, legal, and business purposes

Cookies and Tracking

Cookies save login credentials, facilitate website use, collect statistics, and customize preferences. Disabling cookies may complicate service access.

Advertising

Ads display based on activity, location, destination, and search history. Users can disable personalization in privacy settings. Navi avoids sensitive category-based personalized advertising.

Data Security

Navi implements systems restricting access to authorized personnel under confidentiality obligations. However, absolute security cannot be guaranteed.

Data Transfers

Data processes globally across Navi servers. Protections apply regardless of processing location. Navi collaborates with regulatory authorities on transfer complaints.

Users access, review, update, delete, and export information through in-app tools or the website dashboard using valid credentials. Requests go to [email protected].

Policy Changes

Non-material changes take effect after 7 days; substantial changes require 30 days' notice via system messages and homepage notifications. Legal compliance changes are immediate.
