Privacy Policy

Local projects and recovery

GIS Albania may store project state in your browser using IndexedDB and local storage. This can include drawings, attributes, layer settings, map view and service links. Local project data remains on your device until you delete browser data or a saved project.

Project storage

Named projects and autosave recovery are stored only in the user’s browser through IndexedDB. Portable .gisalbania.json files are created locally and saved wherever the user chooses. GIS Albania does not upload or retain project geometry, attributes or project files on its server.

Map permalinks encode only compact view and public-service state in the URL. Users should review a permalink before sharing it.

Optional analytics

After consent, Google Analytics may receive standard usage information such as page visits, device/browser information and approximate network-derived location. Advertising personalization and Google signals are disabled in the GIS Albania configuration. You can change your choice from the Privacy settings control in the application footer.

Error and security reports

Privacy-minimal application error reports may be sent to help diagnose failures. Project geometry, uploaded files and complete service URLs are not intentionally included. Content Security Policy reports use a separate endpoint and separate quota.

Third-party map services

When you use external basemaps, WMS/WMTS services, geocoding, elevation, PMTiles or COG URLs, your browser connects directly to those providers. Their own privacy terms apply.

Your controls

• Decline optional analytics while retaining all GIS features.
• Download portable project files.
• Delete named browser projects and browser storage.
• Keep, move or share portable project files directly without GIS Albania server storage.
