Privacy Policy
Oi! (hereinafter "Service") is a web app for creating direction memes without signing up. The service is designed not to receive or store personally identifiable information on the server. The only thing left on the server is country-level anonymous aggregate statistics. This policy explains how the service handles information.
1. Information Processed Only on Device
- Location: When you tap "Use Current Location," the browser retrieves your location and displays it on the map. Coordinates are not sent to the server (except for the country code in "Anonymous Usage Statistics" below). The default is a city-level location rounded to approximately 10km.
- Photos: Photos used as characters and background removal are all processed on the device and not uploaded to the server.
- Settings: Settings such as selected country, character, caption, and favorites are stored only in the browser's local storage. They will be deleted along with the browser's site data when cleared.
- Saved Images/Videos: These are created on the device and do not include location information (EXIF).
2. Server Access Logs
The web server providing the service automatically logs access records for security and troubleshooting. The items logged are IP address, access time, requested URL, response status, referrer URL, and browser information. These logs are automatically deleted after 14 days. The requests for anonymous usage statistics below are not logged in these access records.
3. Anonymous Usage Statistics
To create operational statistics on which countries are using the memes the most and which countries are being addressed, only the following items are sent to the server when saving or sharing a meme.
- The country code of your location and the country code of the target you selected (e.g., KR, JP). Coordinates are not sent.
- Save method (image, video, share), screen language, map theme, beam shape, character type (basic, emoji, photo only), and aspect ratio
- Device type (one of Android app, iPhone web, Android web, PC). Only this distinction is extracted from the browser information, and the browser information itself is not stored.
IP addresses, exact locations, device identifiers, and cookies are neither received nor stored, and only aggregate numbers by date and item remain on the server. Therefore, statistics cannot identify specific users.
4. Information Sent to External Services
The service retrieves data from the following external services to render the screen. In doing so, the IP address and browser information are transmitted to each service.
- OpenFreeMap: Map tiles and map fonts. The map range being viewed is also requested.
- NASA GIBS (Blue Marble): Satellite image tiles for the satellite map theme. The map range being viewed is also requested.
- Google Fonts, jsDelivr: Fonts used on the screen and in memes
When sharing a "reply link," the sender's country-level location (coordinates rounded to approximately 50km if the country is unknown) and the country being addressed are included in the link. This link is only transmitted to the recipient whom the user has directly shared it with.
