Privacy Policy for maps.moomoo.me

Effective Date: November 24, 2025

1. Introduction

Welcome to maps.moomoo.me (referred to as "we," "us," or "our"). We are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and handle your information when you use our website and services (the "Service").

Our Service allows you to sign in using your Google Account to upload and manage your Google Street View images.

2. Information We Collect

We only collect the information that is necessary to provide our Service.

  • Information from Google Sign-In: When you sign in with your Google Account, we receive a unique Google Account ID. This ID is used to associate your account with the images you upload.
  • We DO NOT access your email address. The permissions you grant are strictly limited. We do not receive, store, or have access to your email address, your name, your profile picture, or any other personal information from your Google Account.
  • User-Uploaded Content: We process the images (and their associated metadata, like GPS location) that you choose to upload through our Service for the sole purpose of publishing them to Google. We back up and store the image files on our servers ONLY if you select the "Publish url as a marker to this website's map?" option. This is done to preserve your content in the event that Google discontinues Google Earth photospheres or related services.
  • Database Information (With Your Consent): When you upload an image, you have an option via a checkbox labeled "Publish url as a marker to this website's map?".
    • If you leave this checkbox enabled, we will store the resulting Google Street View image URL and the image's GPS coordinates in our database.
    • If you disable (uncheck) this box, the image URL and its coordinates will not be stored in our database.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect for specific purposes:

  • To Provide the Core Service: We use your Google Account ID to link your account to your uploads. We process the images you provide to upload, manage, and publish them to Google Street View on your behalf. This action is initiated by you and requires your explicit authorization through the Google API.
  • To Display Markers on Our Map: If you consent by leaving the "Publish url as a marker to this website's map?" checkbox enabled, we use the stored image URLs and GPS coordinates to display your published images as markers on the maps.moomoo.me public map for other users to see.
  • To Protect Against Service Discontinuation: If you enable the marker option, we store a backup of your image file to ensure your data is not lost if Google alters or removes their photosphere hosting services.

4. How We Share Your Information

Your information is only shared in the following way:

  • With Google: The core function of our Service is to publish your images to Google Street View. Therefore, any images you upload are shared directly with Google to be published on their platform. These images and their management are subject to Google's Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.
  • Publicly on Our Map (With Your Consent): If you opt-in by enabling the checkbox, the resulting image URLs and their location coordinates will be used to publicly display a marker on our map.
  • With Third Parties: We do not sell, trade, rent, or otherwise share your Google Account ID or any other personal information with any third parties.
  • Legal Requirements: We may disclose your information if required to do so by law or in response to valid requests by public authorities (e.g., a court or a government agency).

5. Google API Services Disclosure

Our use and transfer of information received from Google APIs will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. We only use the "manage streetview images" permission to perform the actions you explicitly request within our application.

6. Data Security

We take reasonable measures to protect the limited information we store. To be clear, the only information we store is your Google Account ID and, if you opt-in, the Google Street View image URLs, their associated GPS coordinates and an image file backup with no identifiable information.

Please remember that no method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure.

7. Your Rights and Data Deletion

  • Managing Your Images: The images you upload are managed through your Google Street View account. You can view, manage, or delete your published images directly through Google's services. Deleting an image from Google Street View will result in a broken link on our map.
  • Removing Your Markers: If you have allowed your image URLs and coordinates to be published to our map and wish to have them removed from our database, please contact us at the email address below.
  • Revoking Access: You can revoke our Service's access to your Google Account at any time by visiting the "Security" or "Apps with access to your account" section of your Google Account settings.
  • Deleting Your Data: If you revoke our access, we will no longer be able to manage your images. If you wish to have your Google Account ID deleted from our system, please contact us.

8. Children's Privacy

Our Service is not intended for anyone under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect any personally identifiable information from children under 13.
