AI-Assisted Route Planner in Editor

We have introduced a feature in Fotspor Editor that uses AI technology from OpenAI to help authors plan routes more efficiently. This feature is only available in the Editor and does not affect app usage.

When you use this functionality, text-based descriptions (such as starting and ending points, desired distance, and preferences for routes) may be sent to OpenAI for processing. Information such as IP address and browser information may also be sent as part of the request.

How the data is used:

The data is only used to generate route suggestions. OpenAI does not use the data to train its models, nor do they share it with third parties for marketing. However, OpenAI may store the input for up to 30 days to monitor and prevent misuse of the system.
