SightFind Advertising and Sponsorship Policy

SightFind may show a small number of clearly labeled first-party promotions to help support maps, sync, slope data, support, and ongoing development. The current App Store build does not include third-party ad SDKs.

Current Promotional Formats

• A permanent, non-intrusive RadarCopter promotion may appear in Settings.
• A timed RadarCopter promotion may appear after the app has been used for a while.
• SightFind Plus removes in-app ads and first-party promotional placements without blocking core group, map, slope, and location-sharing features.
• The current App Store build does not include Google Mobile Ads, does not request Apple's App Tracking Transparency permission, and does not use the advertising identifier.

Data Limits

• SightFind does not use precise GPS location, group activity, camera view, support messages, or saved slope downloads for promotional targeting.
• SightFind may use local app-use timing to decide when to show a first-party promotion.
• Opening RadarCopter through the App Store or its website leaves SightFind; Apple or the website may process standard request information under their own policies.
• Production releases that use third-party ads must keep App Store Connect privacy answers, this policy, and the in-app links aligned with the shipped build.

Placement Rules

• Promotions must be clearly labeled.
• Promotions must not hide emergency-relevant controls.
• Promotions must not block active AR friend-finding, map tracking, or live group location use while the user is navigating.
• Promotions must be appropriate for SightFind's App Store age rating.

Sponsorships

If sponsored content is introduced:

• It should be clearly labeled.
• It should not be presented as safety advice, resort authority, rescue guidance, or official terrain status unless it comes from an appropriate official source.
• It should not block AR, map tracking, emergency-relevant controls, or active group location use.

Default Standard

Any monetization should stay low-frequency, clearly labeled, truthful to the shipped build, and secondary to helping people find each other safely.
