Precise real time location information of the device data collection

We may use Geolocation services to fetch your current location in order to determine if you are located within the Metropolitan Expo (HORECA exhibition area) area and only then display relevant notifications. We will not send over the network nor share your current location with other users or partners. A word of caution, using such background services may reduce battery life. We provide that as a feature in order for users to not receive annoying notifications for scheduled events if they are not located at the exhibition area. You, the application user, have always the option to turn off background location tracking or the whole scheduled events notifications entirely at the settings page inside the application.
