  • Location data (if you grant permission) to show nearby exhibitions and improve map functionality
  • Device information (model, OS, unique device identifiers)
  • Usage statistics (pages viewed, clicks) via analytics tools

We do not collect account credentials in the App, since accounts are created only on the partnering websites.
