App: Bali Flood Map  |  Last updated: 28 February 2026

Bali Flood Map (“the App”) is a flood monitoring and early-warning tool for the island of Bali, Indonesia. This policy explains what data the App accesses, how it is used, and what is never collected.

1. Location Data

The App requests access to your device’s GPS location only while the App is in use. Location is used solely to:

  • Center the map on your current position
  • Calculate your proximity to known flood-risk areas and trigger local alerts

Your location is processed entirely on-device. It is never transmitted to our servers, never stored, and never shared with third parties.

2. Third-Party Data Sources

The App fetches publicly available data from the following external APIs. No personally identifiable information is sent to these services.

  • BMKG Badan Meteorologi, Klimatologi, dan Geofisika — official Indonesian weather forecast data (api.bmkg.go.id)
  • PetaBencana Crowd-sourced live flood reports for Indonesian cities (petabencana.id)
  • BNPB National Disaster Management Authority — flood hazard index map layer (gis.bnpb.go.id)
  • Open-Meteo Open-source weather API for precipitation data (open-meteo.com)
  • Google News RSS Publicly available news headlines related to Bali flooding — fetched via rss2json.com
  • OpenStreetMap Base map tiles (© OpenStreetMap contributors)

3. Data We Do Not Collect

  • We do not collect, store, or transmit any personal data
  • We do not require account registration or login
  • We do not use advertising networks or tracking pixels
  • We do not use analytics SDKs (e.g. Firebase, Mixpanel)
  • We do not access contacts, camera, microphone, or storage

4. Internet Permission

The App requires internet access to fetch map tiles and real-time flood/weather data from the third-party sources listed above. No user data is included in these requests.

5. Children’s Privacy

The App does not knowingly collect any information from children under 13. It is a public-safety tool with no user accounts or data collection of any kind.

6. Changes to This Policy

If this policy changes, the updated version will be posted at this URL with a revised “last updated” date.

7. Contact
