1.3 Location data
Important: TeamTerra collects location data ONLY in the following circumstances:
- Foreground location: Collected when you open the app with Pulse Mode active, to display your approximate position on the Radar Map.
- Background location (iOS only): If you have granted "Always" location permission AND Pulse Mode is active, your location may update periodically while the app is in the background to maintain your visibility on the Radar Map. You may revoke this permission at any time in your device settings.
Your exact GPS coordinates are NEVER displayed to other users. Only an approximate area is shown on the Radar Map.
2. How we use your information
- Provide, maintain, and improve the Platform
- Match workers with contractors and project opportunities
- Process subscriptions and in-app purchases
- Send transactional notifications (messages, interest cards, flash hires, account activity)

3. AI technology disclosure
TeamTerra uses artificial intelligence technology, including OpenAI's GPT-4o API, for the following purposes:

- Processing and understanding inbound communications
Your profile data and portfolio content may be processed by OpenAI's API. OpenAI processes this data pursuant to its API Terms of Service and Data Processing Agreement. TeamTerra does not use your data to train AI models. AI-generated analyses include confidence scores and are auditable. AI does not make hiring decisions — it supplements human judgment only.
4. How we share your information

We may share your information with:

We retain your personal information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the Platform services. If you delete your account, we will delete or de-identify your personal information within 30 days, except as required by law (e.g., financial records, legal compliance).
Messages, interest cards, and flash hire records are retained for 12 months after the last activity, then automatically purged.
