Trackbook is free software. It is published under the [MIT open source license](https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT). Trackbook uses [osmdroid](https://github.com/osmdroid/osmdroid) to display the map, which is also free software published under the [Apache License](https://github.com/osmdroid/osmdroid/blob/master/LICENSE). Want to help? Please check out the notes in [CONTRIBUTE.md](https://github.com/y20k/trackbook/blob/master/CONTRIBUTE.md) first.

##A word on privacy
## A word on privacy
Trackbook begins to store location data on device as soon a user presses the record button. Those recordings are stored in the directory `/Android/data/org.y20k.trackbook/files/tracks`. They never leave the device. There is no web-service backing Trackbook.
Trackbook does not use Google Play Services to get its location data. It will however try to use data from the [NETWORK_PROVIDER](https://developer.android.com/reference/android/location/LocationManager#NETWORK_PROVIDER) on your device to augment the location data it received via GPS. The NETWORK_PROVIDER is a system-wide service, that Trackbook has no control over whatsoever. This service will usually query an online database for the location of cell towers or Wi-Fi access points a device can see. You can prevent those kinds of requests on your device, if you set the location preferences system-wide to `Device Only`.
##Which permissions does Trackbook need?
## Which permissions does Trackbook need?
###Permission "INTERNET"
### Permission "INTERNET"
Trackbook needs to download map data from OpenStreetMap servers and therefore needs access to the internet.
###Permission "ACCESS\_NETWORK\_STATE" and "ACCESS\_WIFI\_STATE"
### Permission "ACCESS\_NETWORK\_STATE" and "ACCESS\_WIFI\_STATE"
Trackbook uses [osmdroid](https://github.com/osmdroid/osmdroid/) to draw its maps. osmdroid needs to know the current state of your device’s connectivity - see [Prerequisites](https://github.com/osmdroid/osmdroid/wiki/Prerequisites).
###Permission "ACCESS\_COARSE\_LOCATION" and "ACCESS\_FINE\_LOCATION"
### Permission "ACCESS\_COARSE\_LOCATION" and "ACCESS\_FINE\_LOCATION"
Trackbook needs accurate GPS location data to be able to record your movements. If the GPS data is not available or not accurate enough Trackbook uses location data from cell tower and WiFi triangulation.
###Permission "VIBRATE"
### Permission "VIBRATE"
Tapping and holding some controls will toggle a tiny vibration (force feedback).
