Wayste Privacy Policy

Last updated: 3 November 2026

Wayste is a navigation app published by WHITE TECH FUR ENTERPRISE ("we"). This policy explains what information the app uses and why.

What we collect

Wayste has no accounts, no ads and no analytics of its own. We do not store or sell your personal information.

Location

If you allow it, Wayste uses your device's location while the app is open to:

Wayste does not use your location in the background. You can say no to location access and type a starting point instead.

Searches and routes

To find places and work out routes, Wayste sends the text you search for and the start, end and route coordinates of your trip to our server, which passes them on to Mapbox. Mapbox provides the maps, place search and directions, and processes this information to provide its service, under its own privacy policy: mapbox.com/legal/privacy.

Our server only counts how many searches and routes are made each month, so Wayste can pause itself before it runs out of free map usage. It does not keep what you searched for or where you went, apart from short-lived request logs at our hosting provider, Vercel, which are deleted automatically. To count monthly users, the app remembers on your phone which month it was last opened; nothing that identifies you or your phone is sent.

All of this is sent over encrypted connections (HTTPS). Wayste itself keeps no history of your searches or trips once you close the app.

Map usage data

The map in Wayste is made by Mapbox. Like all apps that use it, the map sends Mapbox de-identified usage and location data, which Mapbox uses to improve its maps and traffic information. Mapbox describes this at mapbox.com/telemetry. You can turn it off at any time: tap the (i) button on the map, then choose to stop sharing.

Children

Wayste is not directed at children under 13.

Changes

If this policy changes, we will update this page and the date above.
