I think you should have a modal appear when a user doesn't allow you to read their location. The modal could maybe offer an explanation of what exactly the site does (e.g. How long you retain location data). Bonus points if we have the option to pick mock locations. I'm suspicious of giving out any data, let alone location data, but would be curious to see what the site does.
- almost 13y agoThat's a really good idea, I'm considering maybe having an explanation of what the site does that displays before it first asks for your location (once you've said no it can be tricky to undo that) For curious people here: it keeps your location for up to 30 minutes in memory on the server then throws it away. I don't log your location or share it with anyone but those you ask the app to.
- Oculus 13y agoYeah, exactly. If I knew that it only stores my location info for 30 minutes, I would have most likely said yes. Without that, temporary could mean anything (hours, days, weeks).
