Location-Based Services Disclaimer

Nearblink provides location-based services that show your approximate location to other users. We make no guarantees about:

  • The accuracy of location data
  • The identity or intentions of other users
  • The safety of meeting other users in person

Location Technology Limitations

You should understand the following technical limitations of location-based features:

  • GPS Accuracy: Device GPS accuracy varies significantly - from 3 meters in optimal outdoor conditions to 100+ meters indoors, in urban areas with tall buildings, or in areas with poor satellite coverage
  • Platform Rounding: For privacy, Nearblink rounds locations to approximately 150 meters (~500 feet) using geohashing technology
  • Location Spoofing: Some users may use software or hardware to falsify their GPS location. While we attempt to detect this, we cannot guarantee that all displayed locations are accurate
  • Stale Data: Location data may be delayed or outdated, especially if a user's device loses connectivity
  • Indoor Limitations: GPS signals are weak or unavailable indoors, leading to significant inaccuracies

NEVER RELY ON NEARBLINK LOCATION DATA FOR SAFETY-CRITICAL DECISIONS. Always verify location independently through other means before meeting anyone.
