Terms of Service
Draft prepared: 6 November 2026 · Effective when published
1. Publisher and acceptance
Geo Camera by OpenKAAL (the “App”) is a technology product operated under OpenKAAL by J BIG DEAL, a proprietorship of Jay Chandra Kar (“we”, “us”, “our”). These Terms govern your use of the App. By using the App, you agree to these Terms to the extent permitted by applicable law. If you do not agree, do not use the App.
2. Purpose and features
The App is designed to help users capture photos or videos with device-supplied location context and prepare field or inspection documentation, including exportable reports where supported. Available functions may differ by app version, device, Android version and granted permissions. Internet-dependent map or approximate-address functions may not always be available.
3. Permissions and lawful use
Relevant functions may require access to the camera, device location, microphone or files. You may control permissions in Android settings, but some features may not work without them. You are responsible for complying with applicable laws and organizational policies and obtaining any necessary permissions or consent before capturing, storing or sharing images, audio, signatures, or sensitive location information.
4. Accuracy and limitations of evidence
Location coordinates, accuracy estimates, addresses, timestamps, metadata, map previews and user-entered details can be wrong, incomplete or manipulated. An app-generated image, location stamp, signature or report is not, by itself, independent verification of where an event occurred or proof of official inspection, attendance, compliance, property limits or authenticity. Verify important records independently.
5. Your content and reports
You retain the rights you have in photos, videos, notes and other content you create or provide. You are responsible for their accuracy, lawful collection, storage, distribution and any decisions based on them. The App does not grant permission to record third parties or enter restricted locations without authorization. Do not use the App for unlawful surveillance, harassment, falsifying evidence or otherwise illegal conduct.
6. Saving and sharing
The App may offer local saving, gallery export, PDF report generation and sharing through Android or services you select. Review files before distribution: exported media and reports may contain precise coordinates, timestamps, names, signatures or other sensitive information. The recipient platform's terms and privacy practices govern content shared with that platform.
7. Third-party services and paid functions
Some functions may rely on Android, location providers, map data or third-party services. Any optional in-app purchases or subscriptions, if available in your installed version, are also subject to applicable Google Play purchase and cancellation terms. We are not responsible for third-party outages or content to the extent permitted by applicable law.
8. Intellectual property
The App's software, branding, documentation and original design elements belong to their respective owners. Subject to these Terms and applicable law, you may use the App for its intended purposes. These Terms do not transfer ownership of the App or OpenKAAL brand to you.
9. Availability, changes and warranties
We may modify or discontinue features subject to applicable law. The App is provided on an “as available” basis. We do not guarantee uninterrupted service or suitability for any particular legal, safety-critical, regulatory or evidentiary purpose. Nothing in these Terms removes consumer rights or limits liability where doing so is prohibited by law.
10. Privacy
See the Geo Camera Privacy Policy for more information about device data, local records, location-related services, exports, retention and choices. If the App or its services change, its privacy disclosures may need updating.
11. Updates to these terms
We may update these Terms as products or applicable requirements change. The published page will show an updated effective date, and we will provide any additional notice required by law.
