Location Privacy

About Location Privacy Android App

THIS APP IS FOR SALE - I NO LONGER HAVE TIME TO MAINTAIN - SERIOUS INQUIRIES ONLY.

INTRODUCTION:
Control over personal information is your universal human right and PlaceMask Location Privacy for Android™ assists you in maintaining location privacy against threats accessing your GPS and Network location (e.g. location-based advertising and profiling apps).

We are focused on delivering technologies that reduce location leakage from on-board GPS and Wireless Network location sources to protect your privacy. Your mobile carrier may still know where you are (roughly) but the applications on your device will not. If you want to anonymize your IP address, consider also using a proxy.

We also recognize a number of other uses for this technology when combined with your location-based apps (e.g. including virtual tourism and misrepresentation).

You will find this a useful companion to: Angry Birds and Carrier IQ (privacy), Wikitude and Google Places (tourism), or Facebook and Foursquare (spoofing).

To learn more about the ways your location is determined and what you can do to stop it, please visit our website at http://www.PlaceMask.com

KEY FEATURES:
• Three privacy settings (minimum, medium, maximum) that monitor settings, replace real location, and randomize movement to enhance privacy
• Scans applications on your device and reports those that use your location with context menu convenience functions
• Provides a status view of your "current" location and the policies in force
• Runs as a resident service that always watches for location leakage
• Easy unmasking to use real location when you need it (e.g. simply tap the PlaceMask to start and stop)
• Remote control through SMS to start or stop service (e.g. for use with Phone Finders)

N.B. UNINSTALL PlaceMask Location Privacy TRIAL before running this standard version

QUICK TEST:
Activate PlaceMask service at the medium privacy level then switch to another location-based app to view your device in a new location.
